Perfect for large family and beach fun!

This was a great rental for my family of 10. We had a great time at Newport and Huntington beaches which were just a short ride from this rental. The outdoors allowed us to sit outside and enjoy the weather. Great restaurants nearby. The place was clean and had everything we needed for a wonderful family vacation

Memorable Beach Trip

The house was the perfect size for our multi-family vacation. Quiet neighborhood, away from all the Newport traffic, but close enough to be at the beach in under 10 minutes. Multiple grocery stores to choose from nearby. Definitely recommend it for large groups.

Thank you so much for sharing your feedback with us. We're delighted to hear that you had a great stay and enjoyed the convenient location near the restaurants, PCH, and the airport. Your kind words truly mean a lot. We also appreciate you letting us know about the dryer in the downstairs unit taking longer than expected to dry towels. We will be sure to pass this along to our local team so they can look into it and improve the experience for future guests. We look forward to hosting you again.

Beach Vacation Gem

We loved this property's location (in a quiet neighborhood) and it's convenience to the beach, shopping, and restaurants. For our family group, having two kitchens was perfect! Overall, very spacious and accommodating. We had a great time!

Very nice house with a lot of room and close to everything.

We had a great time at this beautiful house. It had ample room and was very comfortable. Having two kitchens made it nice that we could spread out and all feel comfortable. It is much nicer and less expensive than staying at a nearby hotel. I would stay here again if in the area in the future. It was a great part of our trip.

Family beach time

The unit(s) are family friendly and the property has plenty of space for all! Beautiful neighborhood and a nice enclosed patio space with grill. Beach access is best by bike or car so it’s not an easy walk for young kids.

Convenient Location

This is a nice home in a quiet neighborhood with three king bedrooms and three bathrooms (one bed/bath downstairs) and two full kitchens. The home was very roomy to accommodate our family and convenient to Balboa and restaurants/entertainment on 17th Street. We will definitely stay here again. The management was responsive via text messaging with our questions and responded in a timely fashion.

Fantastic Home!

Sunny Days exceeded the way it looked online! It was perfect for our 2 families. 1 bdrm and full living/dining area, fully equipped kitchen, bathroom,and lovely private patio area on the lower level, 2 full bedrooms and baths upstairs with another full living and dining area. It was very updated, well decorated, well maintained immaculate, comfortable and close to the beach . We fully enjoyed our stay and highly recommend it- we didn’t want to leave!

Great for so many reasons!

My son was graduating from UCI and the whole family wanted to attend. We booked a week so that we could make a family vacation out of it. This property is listed as dog-friendly and it’s very true. Walkable neighborhoods, nearby parks. We spent time window shopping and had an “original” chocolate dipped banana on Balboa island, Dining at SOL on Newport drive, taking the grandkids to Pixar Fest. The guys had a Golf day, while the girls had a shopping day at South Coast. We took family photos on the beach at Crystal Cove, and we got one last chance to frequent our favorite Diamond Jamboree in Irvine! While everyday was an exhausting adventure we were happy to come home to our comfy beds in Newport. Thanks for providing this welcoming home away from home. We will be back!

Great Newport Beach rental

We were really pleased with this rental. It was clean, comfortable and spacious. At first we were confused with there only being one cereal bowl, one cup, a few forks but realized that many items had been taken up to the second kitchen, leaving the downstairs kitchen sparse. We had great response when we had a power failure and the vacasa team was quick to address and inform us about causes and expectations and our concerns regarding the loud persistent beeping behind a locked door. Our only real issues were the lack of back up garbage bags and unable to find the remote to use the gas fireplace on cold mornings. We were also uncertain as to which parking places belonged to our rental. We absolutely would/ and will rent this location again in the future. Amazing house

Chris, it was our pleasure hosting you and we are glad you enjoyed your stay! Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback with us. Kindly note that with this fireplace, a remote is not available. A larger silver key is needed. Guests have to use the key to turn on the gas and then light it with a long-neck lighter. We apologize for the dishes being mixed up with 2 kitchens. But it is fully stocked. Unlike hotels, we do not stock your entire stay. We provide every unit with a starter kit. Guests are responsible for replenishing any of these items that are needed. Parking is very limited and street parking is always available. We hope you'll stay with us again!

Great stay

We really enjoyed our time. Place is nice and spacious. We had a hard time getting in the first night. We rented the whole unit as we had a large party but the address said unit B. We tried forever to get the key pad to work. Called the number she tried to help. Finally after 20 Mins we tried the other key pad On unit A. We got right in then. It was just very confusing. There were ants in the kitchen and it didn’t seem like the floors were cleaned. After getting in really late and walking around in socks the next morning there was hair and dirt all over our freshly clean new out of our luggage socks. Other than that place was great.
