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.

Perfect for what we needed

We used this apartment as an overflow for a family vacation. So two 20 grandsons stayed there. The place could do with sprucing up a little but it worked well for us & was a great location. Parking was a little finicky. Hard to find & is not a garage per se - just an open space. Once in the space we just left the car there. Didn’t want to come back & find space taken by someone else. Would have preferred a garage space but recognize space is at a premium at Newport Beach. Fantastic location though - had a great time

Great location

We really liked the location of this property. It was close to everything including the beach, pier, restaurants, shops and the kids playground. The host was very responsive to our inquiries and called before our stay to explain the process. If I had one critique, it would be the beds. They weren’t the most confortable.

Perfect Location

We had a wonderful time in this well located 2nd floor unit. We enjoyed watching the goings on at the beach, boardwalk and pier from a roomy second floor balcony overlooking it all. Restaurants, bars and coffee shops were all within a few block radius. Furniture was comfortable, paintings of iconic Newport landmarks on the walls gave the surroundings a fun vibe. Doug was a very hands on host who was responsive when needed. We will certainly be back.

Hidden gem on the beach

Loved it! We have never walked into a cleaner property or hotel room. The host was wonderful. Answered our questions and was very kind. Kids loved the beach we strolled the down. Even our favorite board game, we sat on the deck and played. We will be back!

Doug was great - super communicative and very clear and detailed check-in instructions. He was available anytime I had a quick question. His place is very clean and the location is perfect. Some nights walked to our meals and other nights we ordered in and had meals on the deck outside with the perfect view. My kids loved having the deck and beach as their backyard. This is our new spot - already booked another stay.

Location cannot be beat!

We have stayed in Doug’s beach house 4 summers now, it has become a summer tradition for our family. The location cannot be beat, the upstairs deck is nothing short of amazing. Coffee watching dolphins, wine watching the sunset. This is the perfect place to park, unpack and relax. You don’t have to drive anywhere. If you have teens, they’ll love you for booking here. They have a safe home base, we can relax as parents while they swim, ride bikes, play volleyball, and explore. Thanks for another perfect stay Doug!

About the host

Hosted by Doug & Sandi Vanian

Host profile image
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.
