Perfectly positioned between the lively hubs of Newport Beach’s two piers, this central stretch of the Balboa Peninsula offers one of the most convenient and activity-filled settings on the coast. With the beach in one direction and Newport Harbor in the other, guests can easily move between wide sandy beaches, bayfront recreation, local restaurants and shops, and other classic coastal attractions.
Stroll the boardwalk between the piers, enjoy a surf session, or head toward the harbor side of the peninsula for boat rentals, kayaking, paddleboarding, fishing excursions, whale-watching tours, and trips to Catalina Island. Leave the car behind and explore local favorites such as Marina Park, the waterfront Lighthouse Café, the historic Dory Fleet Fish Market, Balboa Village, the Balboa Fun Zone, and the Balboa Island Ferry, all within easy walking or biking distance.
For additional shopping and dining, Lido Marina Village and Fashion Island are just a short drive away, offering everything from harborfront restaurants and local boutiques to luxury retailers and upscale dining.

Thank you for your comments, Nancy. We're glad you found the property exactly as advertised, and enjoyed the excellent location. Having even a small garage definitely eases your parking woes! We hope to see you again. Kind regards, BVR
The house was very clean and comfortable. It was in the perfect location between Newport and Balboa piers, across the street from the beach and on a very nice street facing the bay. Had a very positive experience interacting with the beach view team.

We were a family of 4 and this was the perfect place. The location was great, the descriptions were spot on, and the beds were comfortable. We would recommend!
House was very clean and well equipped with all of the essentials. Location was great! Neighborhood was safe and clean. Property management was easy to work with. Would definitely stay again!
Great stay, this is our 3rd time staying here. Perfect location! The house needs a new mens bike, the tire was beyond repair. Also the house needs a new paddle board. The fin fell off the one in the garage. Otherwise a great time!

Great Family Vacation
This was a great property for our first family trip. Great location and easy access to the small beach in front of the house as well as the main beach. This house made us feel right at home and had everything we needed for a great visit. I would definitely stay here again.
The condo was super clean and location was ideal with a small beach right across the street. Perfect for family activities
I would definitely rent this property next year!!
