I'm moving to the Island!
The Pristine Harborside Balboa Retreat made me want to move to the island, but after looking at the prices, VRBO is better. Lots and lots of space at this house. We had grandkids (4, 2, and 1 month) plus their parents and a 26-year old son and wife and me and had plenty of room. Great location. Ferry is just down the road. Main St is less than a half mile. Great Mexican place on the corner. Canal just three doors down. Front patio gets lots of sun...enjoy. We will be back...since we aren't buying :)_

Perfect Family Reunion
We thoroughly enjoyed our time at this amazing Balboa retreat which is primely located at the quiet side of the Island. The floor plan was extremely bright and open. Multiple sitting areas as well as a large dining table provided the space we needed to catch up with each other. We were a mix of three adult couples with our elderly mother. The downstairs bedroom and bathroom worked out very well for her needs. The kitchen is great; well organized and serviced our needs beautifully! We certainly appreciated the cleanliness and freshly remodeled interior. Our only suggestions for the hosts would be to provide step stools for a couple of the higher beds, more wall hooks for purses and jackets.and perhaps luggage racks.Thank you to our spectacular host! We can’t wait to come back!

Loved the house and the location. Very clean and has everything you need. Especially loved the oversized swivel chair! My family just surprised me with a Christmas delivery of 2 of those chairs for our sunroom!

Balboa Return
Lovely. A short walk to the ferry and golf cart rental. Close walk to the market and the restaurants. Neat. Clean. Very nicely appointed. BBQ in excellent condition. As a child, I used to stay with my grandparents at their home on Agate Street. It was a pleasure to stay just a few doors down from their 1928 house, which is still standing. A rich experience and we plan to return.

Great property and location!
We have stayed on Balboa many times at many different properties, and we enjoyed our stay at this property. The location is perfect and super convenient for walking to the ferry and downtown. The bikes were an awesome perk we used daily to explore, and the separate suite up top was perfect for our stay with two families. Overall our stay was great and I'm looking forward to returning in the future.

Perfect Family Rental on Balboa Island
Our family stayed here for a week and had an awesome time! This house is on the quiet side of the island and right next to a great beach. Our daughter swam and played in the sand everyday, and we walked to the ferry and restaurants. We also used the paddle boards and bikes! The house is in great condition and recently renovated. We will definitely be back!!
