We had a great stay. It’s cozy and relaxing and the location is fantastic. The AC is perfect upstairs and the first floor always cooled off with the windows open. We had a great time exploring Balboa Island and the Newport area. And this condo is a terrific base.

By the Sea was located perfectly to see the surrounding area. Fun to take the short ferry trip from the island to Balboa. The island itself offered a nice walking path right along the bay with coffee shops, and a small market.We were able to use the 2 car garage which made it veryconvenient. The kitchen was well set-up for cooking Too!Clean, comfortable, and we had a good time share!

6/10 Okay

Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, location
The place has a lot of potential but seems to be in a bit of disrepair currently. paint and drywall is coming off in parts of the house (mostly in lower bathroom). Airvent is missing in lower bathroom and hot water heater is exposed behind a light curtain and very dirty. We were unable to get the upstairs TV to work (please check on it before your next guest arrives). the trundle and bottom bed in 2nd room were not very comfortable can feel the springs, my daughter described the trundle as not really a bed. . Upstairs bathroom had a live cockroach. Also we could not use any of the outlets in 2nd bedroom plugs would just fall out. One couch was very comfortable for sitting and napping BUT the "love seat" was terrible I could feel springs through my bottom and back. Pictures somewhat misleading I thought the patio pictured was of the unit (which was why I chose this property) but it was actually another unit. It really has a lot of potential but we would never stay here again. Positives: GREAT LOCATION, very close to ferry, The queen bed in 1st room was very comfortable, pretty far walk from island shops and restaurants (except one Todos Santos), cute and clean kitchen, lots of closet space, upstairs great AC, good windows and slider door, great shower pressure in upstairs Bath :)

Very good communication with the host. The property is as described...very functional and clean. We used it purely for extra sleeping space while we were visiting relatives who lived on the same street. Tremendous value for this location.

This place was clean and had everything we needed. Just a block or 2 away there's a lovely walk on the strand around the island. We enjoyed seeing the beautiful homes and the boats in the channel. The host was a little slow to respond to my text about how to get in the garage (there were no instructions posted inside the condo either). The TV and internet were great downstairs but we couldn't get the TV to work upstairs.

Good location. Property clean. Downside was that in a condo that sleeps 7, there were only 4 sets of utensils in the kitchen and no manual/notebook outlining instructions, i.e. when trash needed to be put out, how heat and ac worked, etc. Manager responded to questions in a timely manner via text.
