About this property
Panoramic Ocean View! Oceanfront Duplex-Awesome Location - Upper Unit
Recipient of the 2019 Best of Newport Beach Award for vacation home rental. Why settle for less when you can have the best? The pinnacle location in all of Newport Beach. Beautiful sunsets and awesome panoramic views await you from this Newport Beach, oceanfront location! Just steps from the Newport Pier on the boardwalk, in summer, winter, spring, or fall, this Non-Smoking, oceanfront duplex is definitely all about location, vacation, rest, and relaxation. Newly remodeled with upscale furniture and fine art. Treat yourself to million dollar views in a amazing setting.
Enjoy breakfast or a family barbecue on the huge enclosed deck of the upstairs unit in the summer and watch the dolphins swim by or on a winter's morning enjoy your view of Catalina Island. The master bedroom has a Queen-size bed with a high end Cariloha mattress, and the second room also has a queen size bed. There is a fold-up rollaway twin bed if needed. Two sets of double French doors open up to the rather large deck.
The downstairs unit Listing #430032 offers an equally amazing view to be enjoyed from a patio and on a beautiful winter's night - why not listen to the waves as you enjoy a cup of hot chocolate by the woodburning fireplace. This unit offers the same sleeping arrangements as the upper unit. A sliding glass door opens up to a patio area and a barbecue right on the boardwalk. If we don't have availability in the Upper we may have in the Lower.
Walking distance from great restaurants, live music, and shops in the heart of the Peninsula. If you are looking for activities, there are plenty to choose from - boogie boarding, surfing, check out the World Famous 'Wedge,' sailing, boat rentals, whale watching, Catalina Island, the Balboa Fun Zone, Fishing, shopping at Fashion Island, and more.
This rental is just 15 minutes from John Wayne Airport, 20 minutes from Disneyland, California Adventure, and a short drive from Los Angeles International Airport, Sea World, San Diego Zoo, Hollywood, Universal Studios, Knotts Berry Farm, Long Beach Aquarium, Queen Mary, and many other tourist attractions.
Many of our guests return year after year. Truly an amazing place to retreat to and a wonderful place for kids year round. We hope that you will come stay in our beach house and enjoy what Newport has to offer.

*Check-in 4:00 pm and check-out 10:00 am

About the host
Hosted by Doug & Sandi Vanian
Sandi and I (Doug) got married in 1997. We lived in this beach house owned by my family for 5 years. As our family grew so did the need for additional space. We now live 10 minutes away. I'm currently CEO of the household :-) and look after the family property and my wife is a flight attendant with Alaska Airlines. We have the best of both worlds - when the property is not occupied by wonderful tenants we get to enjoy all it has to offer.
Why they chose this property
You have so many choices when it comes to finding just the right beach house for your family vacation, and we believe our Oceanfront home is in the best all-around location. Many of our guests return year after year. Truly an amazing place to retreat to and a wonderful place for kids year round. We hope that you will come stay in our beach house and enjoy what Newport has to offer.
What makes this property unique
Location! Location! Location! Nothing beats driving up and having a parking spot waiting for you. Waking up in the morning and making breakfast as you watch the crashing waves is just a little reminder that life is good.
