Balboa Peninsula House | Beachfront Casa de Balboa 223 Beach Modern Light House Views

2 Bedroom House in Balboa Peninsula, Newport Beach

Summary:
Beachfront - just steps to sand, Casa 223 offers the rare opportunity to enjoy both Newport Harbor and the ocean in one unforgettable location. Relax in a beautifully updated 2BR/2BA home with a private courtyard, beachfront with views, central A/C, and walkable access to beaches, Newport Pier, restaurants, and Marina Park's playground, sailing center, and waterfront activities.
The Space:
Stay where the Balboa Peninsula narrows to a single road, with Newport Harbor on one side and the Pacific Ocean on the other.
Casa 223 is a beautifully updated 2-bedroom, 2-bath bay beachfront home located at Marina Park and Mother's Beach, Newport Beach's largest bay beach. The sand and calm bay waters are approximately 30 feet from your front courtyard, while the ocean beach, boardwalk, and surf are less than a 3-minute walk away.
For over 25 years, Casa de Balboa Vacation Rentals has welcomed generations of returning guests. Many families who first stayed with us decades ago now return with their children and grandchildren—a tradition built on exceptional locations, continual improvements, and genuine hospitality.
Unlike many Peninsula properties, Casa 223 enjoys a quieter, safer street-level location with no rear alley. The street ends at a small public dock used for passenger boat pick-up and drop-off, creating a more relaxed setting with less traffic behind the home.
The home features a bright open floor plan, central air conditioning, and comfortable indoor-outdoor living designed for relaxing beach vacations.

The Neighborhood:
In addition to our bay front location, the property is just a couple of short beach blocks (a beach block is about two houses..cross one street that divides the peninsula) from the ocean boardwalk and pier. And it`s within walking distance of many restaurants offering a variety of fare. Enjoy Mexican cuisine, seafood (including the famous Crab Cooker two blocks away, The Cannery, and Blue Water Grill), Italian, Sushi, Shore Bird, Palmilla fine Mexican, and several fine dining restaurants such as Oceanfront, Nobu, Cannery, and The Dock. Or try the new Louies` On the Bay..located next to Billy`s on the Beach!!
Our Casa's are in a quieter location on the park beachfront, offering the best views and location in Newport Beach. There is plenty of activity including renting paddle boards and kayaks around the corner (where our Casita's are located on 20th St) to be delivered to the beach in front. No schlepping!! Summer recreation camps available on beach.
From the moment you walk through the dutch door, you`ll feel "at home" - and maybe a little pampered at the beach.
Getting Around:
There are plenty of cabs, car rentals, bike rentals, Uber, and Lyft. We are located close to restaurants and shops so there is plenty to walk to. During the summer, the city has a open air trolley that runs on the peninsula stopping here at Marina Park..
Other Things to Note:
Bring your fishing poles! The main pier is for fishing and our small dock is for loading/unloading passengers. There are electric and motor boats for rent at the Pavilion. And there`s a great tot lot on our beach.

Summary: Enjoyed a nice Christmas getaway here. Kitchen was very well-appointed and we were able to cook nice meals during our stay. House was very comfortable and nicely decorated - lots of thoughtful touches. It rained quite a bit during our stay, so the large covered patio overlooking the bay was a welcome feature! Enjoyed time on the water and had many meals at a variety of excellent restaurants close to the home. Would definitely recommend this Vrbo stay.
