Was a really nice stay at the cottage. Love that it is like the original Balboa Island homes. So cozy with areas to relax both in the front and in the back patio. So well stocked too! Kari was very easy to communicate with and accommodating.

Communication and check in was very smooth. The cottage is in a great location and is well stocked with all the supplies you will need. It is also an easy walk to multiple restaurants and shops- as well as the ocean.

Perfect Vacation Cottage We had a wonderful stay in this cottage. Kari was wonderful to work with and everything was super easy. We enjoyed spending time on the front porch and the house had everything we needed to eat in and live comfortably. The location is perfect! We enjoyed our stay very much!!!

Perfect This is our second time staying here, with our 9 year old daughter and 2 golden retrievers. It’s a perfect spot - comfortable, clean, close to everything and especially the bay and beach. The front patio is so relaxing - we work out there, eat there and entertain there. Really wonderful overall. Kari’s great, responsive and nice. This is our go-to now whenever we come to Balboa Island. We’ll be back soon!

this property needs a lot of renovations * Many of the seasonings provided in the kitchen are expired. * kitchen utensils were greasy and unclean * many pedestrians were passing by out the front door and it was very noisy.
