Our great Aunt Mary built this cottage on the water for her family after WWII. A few generations, (and many family events) later we're happy to share this Balboa icon with you as well.

Step out front to enjoy the view, hang in the canal, or go for a paddle around the island.

Walk out the back door and you're a few feet from the main avenue with restaurants, shops, and frozen bananas. By car, you're a few minutes away from downtown Newport and Fashion Island.

Welcome to Balboa!

The space

Where you’ll be

Newport Beach, California, United States

Balboa Island is a great place to enjoy the sun, relax on a calm beach, or paddle around the island (We'd also recommend renting a Duffy boat and taking yourself for a cruise).

The island has it's own shops and restaurants (Dad's Banana Stand and Picante Martin's are two family favorites) and you can take the ferry over to the Peninsula.
