We visit our daughter every year for at least two weeks and we always stay on Balboa Island. This home was exceptional and we were very comfortable and so enjoyed the more peaceful little Balboa Island. If I had to say what wasn't okay, I would say the washer/dryer was unusually noisy and the washer wasn’t the cleanest as some clothes were stained while washing them. They ultimately came clean. Other than that, we had a lovely stay and it is an amazing location on little Balboa.

We loved our stay so much! Our first time staying on the little island and we actually ended up liking it better than the main island. The home was beautiful and gave us the most incredible views!!

Beautiful Balboa Bay House
The house is so beautiful and in a great location! The only thing that we found that could be better is the mattress in the primary bedroom. Other than that, we loved everything.
