Everything was great as expected, especially with the pages of lease agreement we had to read and sign prior to the reservation being fully accepted. The only complaint I have relates to the listing… nowhere in the listing or in the lease agreement did it say that the beach equipment (chairs, towels, body boards, umbrellas, etc.) was available for use. It was pictured in the listing, but did not specify that it was part of the rental. And the lease specifically said that the user had to provide their own stuff like that. It wasn’t until I was provided the access instructions upon check in time through a third party website that any of that stuff was okay to use without additional charges or rental steps. That would be my only suggestion: make that more clearly stated in the listing if possible.

Living the Life on Balboa Pennisula

Very convenient to the beach and shops and restaurants. Walking path in front of the house was great for running/walking. Very convenient to have the beach towels, chairs, boogie boards and surf boards that came with the unit. The bikes are a plus too but 2 of them are not very usable. House was great with a nice view and ocean breezes. Overall, loved our stay!

Management Company was Amazing!

We had to change our vacation plans last minute and were able to book this property. Tower 17 management went over and above to accommodate our needs and the property was exactly as advertised and what we were looking for. When we return Tower 17 will be the only management company we will work with.

You’re set in the rear upper apartment, kitchen and dining/living room area looks out over the beach’s and ocean. It was actually better being set back from the beach as all the other “beachfront” properties get a constant flow of people walking or cycling past (literally at touching distance) on the main beach path. Good size rooms with open kitchen / Dining / Living area. Felt safe and very private, would suit someone wanting a little peace and quiet, couples or a small family, very clean and well equipped. Garage and outside private patio / dining area and BBQ. Surfboards, Bodyboards, Boogie boards, Bicycles etc. Easy access to the beach and great parking, nice neighbourhood and friendly neighbours. Five minutes walk to the Pier and bars etc. Overall a very easy place to stay at, all communications and instructions regarding the property and its use were all pretty straightforward. Hope to go back!!

Great location. No AC ruined it.

When we walked into the unit we were so excited for such a close stay to the beach, only to be surprised by the raging inferno of a beachfront property with zero AC. I can't believe for the life of me that any place in Newport Beach doesn't have AC. The house was clean, perfect and the beach equipment was readily available.

really nice place.

everything was great. the only critique would be - needs a new couch it smelled and wasn't very comfortable. the floors need to be mopped - bare feet walking around were black from dirt. 2 glass wine glasses were broken and put in the cupboard. also the water heater temp should be looked at the hot water was scalding. definitely will stay here again. thanks

Close to Newport Pier, Not a bad place. Needs a few improvements

Not a bad spot for a few days. Having a parking spot in this part of Newport is a major plus. Place is small, but if you spend your days on the beach you don't need a lot of room. Place as hot at night (85`). This place really needs to come with a floor fan or two to push the ocean breeze back to the rooms. One bed had a bunch of sand in it when we showed up. Sheets looked washed and folded, so I'm guessing the sand came after that. You are so close to the beach that sand is everywhere, we just dealt with it. The neighborhood is very nice, but it gets loud at night because you have to have all the windows open in the summer so you hear everyone yelling or playing music while cruising by the beach boardwalk. The neighbors were having a good shouting match that woke us up. If this place had a floor fan, we could have gotten the temp down enough to shut the windows late at night. Garage space was nice and the outside shower was a nice spot to clean off. The bikes were a great touch IF THEY WORKED, as we always go for rides when in Newport. Two of the 4 bikes were in bad shape. The handle bar on one of them was so loose that I almost went ass over tea kettle when I mounted the bike. Kids had a laugh, but I did not feel like a trip to the E.R. The other bike was really rusted and hard to peddle. I had to turn back after a mile to get another bike, as I was running out of gas pushing a rusted bike around. Kitchen pans need an upgrade too, they were really scratched and worn.

Third Stay at Beach House

This is our third time renting the beach house. We were in the L.A. area for family events. We loved being steps from the beach again and appreciated the quieter time of year with fewer visitors. Once again checkin and checkout were very easy. I’m sure we’ll be back.

Thanksgiving at the Beach

My wife and I and our two adult children spent Thanksgiving week at this beach house, our second time renting here. The location is fantastic—right on the beach bike path only a few short blocks from the pier. We found everything in the kitchen we needed to make our holiday dinner for four and enjoyed walking to Charlie’s Chili, Sharkeez, and other restaurants and bars for other meals. We are so happy that this house allows us to bring our dog and that dogs are permitted on the beach in the mornings and late afternoons/evenings. We plan to return.

Beach Stay

My family of four plus dog couldn’t have been happier with the location or the cleanliness of the property. We’d were close enough to the activity at the Newport Pier while not being on top of it. Check in and check out we’re easy. Two parking spaces (!) was a major plus. We hope to stay here again.

Great except for workers at 7 am

Property management employees woke us up at 7 am on Friday opening storage closets next to the garage, talking really loud and destroying our morning sleep. They parked in the spot next to our vehicle and had the management company decal on the side of their car. With the amount we paid for a vacation, this was unacceptable as I couldn’t go back into I sleep once woke from their noise. They were outside making noise for at least 3 hours as they were still there at 10 when we left for breakfast. House was nice and clean, but it was upsetting to have that noise be outside so early on the morning.

Great location. Perfect size for our family. We had a great time.

We really enjoyed our trip. The management group was very responsive and on top of things leading up to our visit. We didn't need much while we were there. A few minor things, bed and pillows were not comfy (at all) so that made for sleepless nights and sore backs. We made up for that at the beach. They could also stock up on some simple things like plasticware, spices and coffee just to add a little touch. We would use this management group again.

Great location. Great condo. Great amenities

The folks over at Tower 17 were incredible. They were incredibly accommodating, readily available and easy to work with. The volume of beach related items provided (surf boards, boogie board, cruisers, umbrella, etc.) elevated the beach experience and gave everyone a little something of what they wanted. I will be using Tower 17 for my future Newport bookings.
