We loved this house and location. There was plenty of space for our group and an amazing location - close to shopping/dining on Marine, just a few houses away from the water - but private as you are not right on the water. The kitchen was stocked as well! It was an overall great experience!

5 stars all the way!
Everything about this house is 5 stars! The location is great, just a couple blocks from Marine Blvd and a few houses from the beach. The house is beautifully redone and comes stocked with everything you could need. The beds are incredibly comfortable. We appreciated having the bikes to rides. Sheila was so easy to work with. This was the perfect place for a "Moms" getaway! We will definitely stay here again!

Excellent Home on Balboa Island
Great older home on Balboa Island, all redone and so cute. The home was spotless and all the amenities were well thought out. The communication with the owner was excellent. Sheila welcomed us via message and gave us tips on the boat parade. The only small issues were the heater controller we always had to adjust and the hot water takes a LONG time to get to each area of the house. Would definitely recommend the home to others and will stay there again when in the area. Thanks for a great vacation!

Absolutely perfect house!
The house is in an ideal area where you can walk to everything and with their bikes, it makes going to the Peninsula and beach so easy! We loved sitting by the fireplace with a glass of wine at night and truly enjoying the beauty of the island. Perfect for a family or a romantic getaway.
