LUX Beach 2BR/2BA • Huge Courtyard • Walk to ALL

Summary:

One of Newport Beach's most unique 2BR/2BA beach homes, completely rebuilt with luxury finishes and an exceptional 400+ sq. ft. private courtyard. Gather around the full-size fire-pit dining table, grill on the Weber BBQ, relax in central A/C, and sleep in genuine Westin Heavenly beds. Walk to Marina Park, Mother's Beach, Newport Pier, restaurants, and the ocean—all from one of the Peninsula's most desirable locations. In short...we're where you want to be.



The Space:

Designed for families and longer stays, your beach home combines luxury finishes with exceptional comfort in one of Newport Beach's most desirable neighborhoods.



Completely rebuilt from the studs, everything is new—from the plumbing, sewer, electrical, HVAC, insulation, and windows to the beautiful kitchen, bathrooms, and furnishings.



Unlike many Newport Beach two-bedroom homes, you'll enjoy two full bathrooms, your own private washer and dryer, central air conditioning, and an outdoor living space that truly becomes part of your vacation.



THE COURTYARD



One of the highlights of Casita 216A is the exceptionally large private courtyard offering more than 400 square feet of outdoor living.



Gather around the full-size fire-pit dining table for six, grill on the Weber natural gas BBQ, relax in comfortable lounge seating, or enjoy a quiet evening beneath the stars.



An outdoor patio heater keeps the space comfortable on cool coastal evenings.



This isn't simply a patio—it's your own outdoor living room.



SLEEPING



Primary Suite



• Genuine Westin Heavenly King Bed



• Private ensuite bathroom with walk-in shower



Second Bedroom



• Genuine Westin Heavenly Queen bed



Hall Bathroom



• Tub/shower combination



Common Area



• Hi-line twin air mattress, double-height with automatic inflate/deflate. A surprisingly comfortable option for an additional guest without compromising the living room with a sofa sleeper.



PARKING



A reserved off-street parking space is included and measures approximately 8½ feet wide by 23 feet deep. Please review the listing photos to ensure it will comfortably accommodate your vehicle.



The parking space is located to the right of the building and is accessed via the short driveway on the left. It is best suited for small to medium-sized vehicles. First-time guests may find it helpful to have a spotter when entering/backing into the space. Backing in may provide additional room when exiting your vehicle.



Traveling with a larger vehicle? We recommend reserving our identical Casita 216B (Upper), which includes its own private, non-shared garage, or one of our nearby bay beachfront Casa de Balboa homes at Mother's Beach. We offer both two- and three-bedroom homes, each featuring two full bathrooms and private garage parking.



Additional metered and non-metered street parking is available nearby. Newport Beach parking meters are free overnight.

We've stocked your beach home with thoughtful extras to make your vacation easier, so you can pack less and enjoy more.



For the beach:

• Tommy Bahama backpack beach chairs

The 2026 parade runs December 16–20, with fireworks on the first and last night and opening night featuring live music, food, and local vendors on our beach at Marina Park.

Guest Access:

Guests enjoy exclusive access to the entire lower home, private courtyard, reserved parking space, and private laundry facilities.



The Neighborhood:

Located in one of the Balboa Peninsula's most desirable neighborhoods, Casa de Balboa offers the best of both worlds—the excitement of the ocean just a short stroll away and the relaxed atmosphere of the bay side, where families gather to swim, paddleboard, kayak, and enjoy the waterfront.



Walk just a short beach block (crossing only West Balboa Boulevard) to the ocean, boardwalk, and Newport Pier, or head around the corner to Marina Park and Mother's Beach, one of Newport Beach's favorite family beaches.



Leave your car parked and explore on foot. Within minutes you'll find waterfront restaurants, cafés, coffee shops, bars, boutique shopping, bike rentals, paddleboard and kayak rentals, and some of Newport Beach's most popular restaurants, including The Crab Cooker, Bluewater Grill, The Cannery, Flying Fish, Nobu, Palmilla Cocina y Tequila, The Dock, Shorebird, and many more.



Paddleboards and kayaks can even be delivered directly to Marina Park—no carrying or loading required.



During the summer, Marina Park offers recreation programs and beach camps for children, making this an ideal location for family vacations.



Getting Around:

Many guests arrive, park their car, and don't drive again until it's time to head home.



The beach, Marina Park, Mother's Beach, Newport Pier, restaurants, cafés, bars, shopping, and recreation are all within an easy walk.



During the summer months, the free Newport Beach Trolley stops about a block away, making it easy to visit Balboa Village, the Fun Zone, Cannery Village, Lido Marina Village, and other Peninsula destinations without worrying about parking.



Uber, Lyft, taxis, bicycle rentals, e-bikes, scooters, and rental cars are all readily available.



Other Things to Note:

Our homes are designed for memorable family vacations where guests can relax, reconnect, and enjoy the very best of Newport Beach.



Gather around the full-size fire-pit dining table for six, grill on the Weber natural gas BBQ, spend the day at the beach, and create lasting memories with family and friends.
