Beautiful property inside and out. Thank you. Two items: (1) garage door opener does not work; (2) master bath leaves a bit to be desired. Mold on small window and a used bar of soap!

A wonderful property - on Balboa Peninsula

We really enjoyed this property. The casita is fantastic…very well kept and appointed, clean, and comfortable. The views of the Balboa channel/beach are AWESOME!! Also, as the crowds at the beach dwindle, it gets really tranquil and quiet - so sitting on the outside porch was heaven!! We’ll be back again.

Location, location,Location Yet Quiet

We loved the ease of walking to the beach and walking up to the lighthouse park. Both literally 5 minutes away. The view of the harbor area from the patio is beautiful day and night and even when it rains! Nicely furnished super clean unit, well stocked kitchen, and comfortable beds and pillows. Pam is super responsive and provided excellent restaurant recommendations.

Beautiful view and a great location!

This location was just beautiful and so convenient! The property was immaculate and had every amenity one would need for the perfect vacation. The beach was only a block away and we could still hear the waves crashing in the quiet of the night and early morning. We enjoyed watching the boats sail by and the ability to easily walk our dog in the park area nearby. Check in and check out process were both very easy and the owner is super responsive. We can’t wait to book our next stay!

Fantastic stay - 5 stars all the way around

First time staying at the Casa de Balboa unit 231 and my husband and I were pleasantly surprised by how clean the home was, how nice the furniture, linens and beds were and also how great the bay view was from the front patio. The well-stocked kitchen was lovely and had beautiful granite countertops and nice appliances. We both appreciated the luxury bed linens and towels also which were super soft and smelt brand new. Great location for children as well as there is a park not too far they could walk to on their own. Dog-friendly for our 2 Goldendoodles, they loved their daily walks around the bay. Location was perfect - only a few minutes walk to the beach. shops and dining options. Can't say enough positive things about our experience....We will definitely be back to stay at Casa de Balboa and can't wait for our next trip!

This truly is an awesome property. Well equipped, great location. It's definitely a 5-star quality unit. Beds, pillows, sheets are all amazing. I particularly LOVED the beautiful blue and white Spode dishware. The remodel of this unit was amazing. If I still lived in CA, I'd be asking for their contractor! If you have small kids, the bay is right across the street with a beach. We definitely will be returning.

Stay by the best breakfast spot!

This place was very clean. It was a nice view of the bay when the cars weren’t parked in front. It’s so close to the most amazing breakfast spot and that was super convenient. The only thing I didn’t like was they don’t have a K Cup maker or coffee mugs but, they do have a regular coffee machine. Easy to check in, washer and dryer.. I would definitely go back. A+

Lovely and Relaxing

We were looking for a change of scenery, close to home, without having to travel too far. This was exactly what we needed. The property was ideally located, clean, roomy, comfortable, and supplied with everything you might need for a comfortable stay. Pam was easy to reach and communicate with. Already looking to plan our next trip there.

Beautiful casa, beautiful views

The photos really don't do the house justice. It's absolutely beautiful and the front patio with the view of the harbor was my favorite part. We had all of our meals out there. Very close to the beach and pier, but if you're traveling from a city that takes the pandemic seriously, be careful as maybe 20% of the people I saw were wearing masks and social distancing. Honestly, the casa is so great you don't even need to leave.

Loved it

Great location - the kitchen was stocked well with all the essentials. I was hesitant to rent on the bay side vs the beach, but glad we chose this location. So relaxing to watch the boats go by patio. The only con was being on the bottom floor, and having children staying in the unit above. You can really hear the foot steps, but you get used to it after a while. I would definitely stay here again.

We had a terrific stay!

The location is fantastic. Long walks with the dog along the beach and the bay twice (and sometimes 3 times) a day, beautiful sunrise and sunsets, sitting on the patio people watching and seeing the boats going by all contributed to an excellent visit. We also rented kayaks two different days so we could see the bay and boats from the water. There are great restaurants in the area and via delivery. The condo is nicely appointed. Anytime we needed something, we found it without much looking. The kitchen appliances are quite new. Everything was very clean. The beds are comfortable with nice linens and plenty of bath and beach towels. In the garage there were beach chairs, umbrellas, boogie boards, and even buckets and shovels and other beach toys for kids. Pam is a great host. She is very responsive and truly wants your visit to go great. After reserving her place, she sent us a full list of instructions, information about the house amenities, and details about the area like restaurants, parking , etc. You really can’t ask for a better place or host.

Great find! Extremely Comfy Place

The house is very comfy and has everything you could need. Kitchen was great to cook in and the patio is lovely to hangout on. You can’t beat the location. The only thing I feel like I need to point out this is a downstairs unit and unfortunately we had an insomniac above us a couple of nights and she was moving furniture around all night long. The kids running back and forth was very loud too, but at least the kids slept. Overall we would stay again.

The property is in a a great location. Very easy to get around. It is in excellent condition and very clean. We didn’t cook this time but I could have very easily (I usually bring my own cookware to other places). The kitchen was well supplied with quality cookware and utensils.
