Kimberlee and John are perfect hosts! We had a wonderful vacation here. Everything was nice and clean and very up to date. Great location. We will book again!
We have stayed in this beautiful cottage multiple times over the year. We come back because it’s described exactly the way you find it on arrival. The availability of management to answer any questions could not be better. We will be back!
We had the most amazing time besides spectacular hosts and fabulous cottage the location is close to everything you want or need. We definitely recommend this cottage and will book this house again.
Great host that made our stay great by helping reserve parking in front of property and taking time to go over everything. Property was clean and close to the beach, restaurants and markets. We would stay there again.
The home itself was beautiful, with an amazing front and back patio and adorable decorations throughout. It was the perfect size for my husband and I. We loved the location as it was walking distance to a grocery store, lots of shopping and nice restaurants, not to mention the short and lovely walk down the street to the beach. The hosts are delightful and we found the accommodations a little touches to be just what we needed to relax and enjoy our time.
The owners were such gracious hosts and the place was adorable with everything you could ask for. It was very beautiful and nicely kept and the bed was comfortable!
Gorgeous cottage within walking distance of beach, restaurants and shopping.Kimberlee and George are really good people and great hosts. Hope we can make this an annual trip!
Super clean, cozy home. The location to the beach is perfect. The home was stocked with all that we needed. Parking can be difficult on the street, there’s pay parking at the end of the street which is 26 for 6 hrs. We will definitely stay again, we will just use Uber or Lyft next time.
I cannot say enough great things about the Cottage in Newport Beach. We had the BEST time and were so impressed with the location, amenities and the decor. We are booking next year already and we just got home.
Fantastic stay with greats hosts. John is very communicative and helpful, even saved a parking spot for us right out front! The location is perfect—block from the sand and Pavillions. The cottage was very clean and had everything needed for two people and a baby. Overall, highly recommend and we’ll definitely stay again!
We had an amazing stay at this charming cottage in Newport Beach! From the moment we arrived everything exceeded our expectations. The cottage was spotless, beautifully decorated with a coastal vibe and had all the items needed to make our stay relaxing. We loved our private patio and spent quite a lot of time enjoying meals and a good bottle of wine. Our hosts were extremely welcoming and gave us great recommendations for local eating and shopping. Everything was very close and convenient. We highly recommend this gem for anyone looking to enjoy Newport Beach.
This beach cottage is absolutely perfect in every way. So many details and amenities. The location is ideal if you want access to both the beach and the downtown area. Close to the Lido area with beautiful shops and restaurants. Couldn't have found a better place!
Everything about this property was perfect.
The beach cottage was so adorable the owners are extremely gracious. You could not ask for a better location, walking distance to many restaurants and shopping. I have to give a shout out to Humanity Coffee, walked to get the best cappuccino every morning.

About the host
Hosted by Kimberlee Vandenakker
John and Kimberlee Vandenakker manage the VRBO on behalf of The Peter Swanberg Trust. Peter was Kimberlee's father (and friend). John and Kimberlee live on-site and are available to assist when needed. Pete, a teacher and high school football/swimming and wrestling coach worked three jobs in order to buy his dream beach house. In 1970, this dream became a reality! Come enjoy Pete's dream with us!
Why they chose this property
The property location is ideal for fun in the sun! Great public beach a block away with soft sand and friendly water. Close to all the activities and fun Newport is known for, plus the convenience of a very close grocery store (Pavillions), pubs, bank, dry cleaners and laundry mat. Beautiful sunsets too!
What makes this property unique
A new addition for the Spring 2016 - rent the upstairs unit- a one-bedroom with a large window and upgraded décor VRBO #811145). Exceptional service and hospitality. Let us know if you are celebrating something special, we will be happy to arrange for flowers, champagne or anything we can do. If you need a ride from John Wayne airport, just ask. If we can manage it, we will! You really do not need a car in Newport Beach. Check our reviews and see what some of guests have had to say!
