Property is lacking
This unit is nicely located on the Balboa Peninsula, near the ferry with easy access to Balboa Island and Newport Center. The rooms are spacious, with a large light filled and comfortable common area. The kitchen is appropriately stocked. There are, however, many issues that have caused me to give this unit only three stars: - The instructions on how to operate the front door keypad were lacking. I had to spend time calling Vacassa about it and other issues; - The owners do not provide the code to open the garage. Very inconvenient; - The A/C consists of a floor unit in the common area only. It does a good job cooling that room only. There is no central air as stated on the VRBO website; - There is no ceiling fan in the upstairs bedroom. The fans that were provided are old, noisy, and inefficient. It gets hot in that room in the summer, and there is no cross-ventilation; - The curtains in the upstairs bedroom barely provide privacy and do nothing to block the sun in the morning; - Although very large, the downstairs bedroom is very dark and musty; - The downstairs shower temperature control is reversed, with no instructions how to properly operate it. After 15 minutes of running on cold, we finally determined that the controls were reversed; - When you call Vacassa to get information or assistance, you connect with a phonebank in Oregon. It's difficult to get them to connect you with the local property management office. I was unsuccessful! (See my Vacasa review.)

Excellent location
Excellent location. Good set up inside of the home with private baths within the bedrooms. The heater is very noise if you visit in the colder months. Also, no amenities (beach chairs labeled “owner only”) for guests to use. Early check out time of 10 am.

Mixed Feelings
Property was very clean, even inside all drawers, cabinets and even refrigerator. The location near both beach and bay was fantastic! Garage was amazing to have. We didn't have a car but for anyone staying with one, parking is difficult at the beach and on the streets so this would be a big bonus. Listing says, "ample towels." We had only 2 sets of towels for 4 people for 5 nights. PAY ATTENTION to the listing that says, "no air conditioner!" While the windows were excellent quality and very functional, we could not get any breeze blowing throughout the unit. We could get the living room to feeling tolerable at night but the bedrooms were miserable, 77-78 degrees every night. It was terrible! There was a portable unit in the living room that blew directly at the wall and had notes in the listing and on the unit not to move it and not to run it over night. We were gone in the day and scared to run it at night and didn't understand why we would chance the $200 fee to cool the living room wall instead of the room. The living room TV did not work and we waited 2 days to get the remote for that. That was unfortunate since the bedrooms were just too hot to hang out in. The listing had quiet hours and specified that neighbors live there and would report if we were loud. I guess that did not refer to the marijuana smoking neighbors that blared movies and laughed and were loud hours past "quiet time." We had to close the windows to not smell the weed and cigarettes which made the inside heat just miserable. Definitely mixed feelings on this one!

Not impressed.
The inside living room/kitchen were as pictured. Lower bedroom not very inviting. Upper bedroom was okay. However, if you look outside the upper patio doors it's a mess. Cluttered so you really cannot sit out there, The tiny lower level "patio" area off the lower bedroom was not a pleasant view with a bike that looks like it was stored there for a long time. (Don't let the pictures fool you.) It's advertised as air conditioned, It's a stand alone tower air conditioner with a note saying: Air Conditioner Only for daytime use. Do not run over night. It can cost you up to $200...very expensive to run too long. Thx. It didn't run most of the time during the day anyway. Warm during the day and very warm at night. Very little circulation. No ceiling fan in upstairs bedroom. Not very generous in towels and washcloths. Didn't want a stranger coming into our rental when we were not there. It would appear only 5 star reviews show up on their site.

Beautiful property
The house is absolutely beautiful. Nicely furnished. Everything we needed in the kitchen. Location is perfect for accessing Catalina ferry, Balboa Island ferry or the ocean. Couple of really good restaurants within walking distance. The only drawback was having to open the garage door from inside the house. Very inconvenient. But even with that, I'd stay there again.
