"They had clean sheets, clean towels and the mattress was clean. The gentleman who brought the refrigerator was kind."

"Staff were helpful."

"Clean room and property. Very annoying trying to get in and out of valet at night as the lobby bar here is a local watering hole. Valet charges are insane @$74 a night and takes 15-20 mins to get vehicle each time. Worst part is the people coming aren’t even staying at the hotel they live close by and are clogging up valet bad. Coffee bar downstairs is convenient in the AM but also over priced."

"Perfect location! That’s what we loved most about this visit - the ability to walk out the door onto the strand and beach. We loved being down the peninsula a little more so that you didn’t get quite as much traffic rolling past. Do know that you will get street noise. Unavoidable as there is only one Main Street up and down balboa peninsula. And the windows on the street side are super thin - so you can sleep with them open or closed - doesn’t matter because they are so thin, when closed it sounds like they are open! To be expected though. Kitchen had everything we needed. Primary suite was fantastic. A couple of inaccurate advertisements for the house. It says Nespresso for coffee so we bought based on that information. Turned out it is a Keurig at that house. Also, it says no bikes there but there were 4 beach cruisers in the garage. AvantStay was a good property manager. They encourage (to be read - require) you to shift over from Vrbo to their platform for the trip - filling out forms, communication, etc. it’s a good platform, but really - if you advertise on Vrbo, it’s nice to use, and expect to be able to use that platform. The place was clean when we got there but expect a heavy dose of cleaning solution smell for the first day/night. It was intense. The house itself is pretty beat up. It’s a rental so it is par for the course. But lots of nicks on the walls and just a little rough around the edges for the price. But it would not deter us from staying there again. "

"The location of the apartment can’t be beat. It is only a handful of houses from the water and a short walk from downtown. If you don’t plan to leave Balboa you do not need a rental car. The place itself is laid out perfectly for a small family, friends or a couple. The beds are comfy, the bathroom nicely appointed, the living room is spacious enough for five to hang out around the fire. The kitchen has most everything you need to cook a simple meal. The only wish was to have more of a dining room set up on the deck rather than a sitting area. There are fantastic beach chairs and beach towels available which made her time by the water very relaxing. We did have a rental car and parking was a breeze. I will definitely be back again and cannot recommend this place enough ! "

"Enjoyed our time!"

"Perfect location and great for a large group. The place is not in pristine condition but that is reflected in the price. I would definitely stay there again."

"Can’t ask for a better location. Right on the beach with the park next door too for games etc. Pretty quiet as you’re down away from the shops. Parking was convenient other than garbage day. The house sleeps a lot of people however the kitchen is very small for the amount of people. The house is old and outdated. It could really use a deep clean especially on the main floor. A few minor updates would go a long way with bathrooms/fixtures etc. We had a son in a wheelchair and although we made it work it was very tricky and tight spaces. Hard to get him in and out and the main floor has lots of thresholds etc. I would not recommend for someone looking for accessibility. The patio is great to sit on and watch the sunset and people, just be prepared to clean things off. Overall our group of 16 had a great experience and loved the location. Wish it was a little cleaner and a few updates. Very responsive communication. The outdated house is reflected in the price for the size and location. "

"This beach house was beautiful clean well equipped great location especially if you have kids or a dog because you have a huge green grass area right in front. The Host were so nice and kind he was right there if we needed anything "
