NBVP has been great! I was referred by a family that has been renting a property in Newport Beach…read more They've been managing my house for about a year and my number one compliment of them is their selection of renters. Our house was built to house 3 families and ideal for kids. My house has been very respected by all the renters and I've personally met many of them in passing while I was grabbing things out of storage. Just simply very nice people. And through summer I've had very few vacancies (so if you planning to use your property, plan accordingly) and this has only gained the value of the rental property. Thank you NBVP!!!

Here's how I can break it down: LOCATION: 10/10 The location was absolutely perfect--just steps from the beach(halfway between tacos & sand... ) **Literally ran in foot to Pavilions & back in 8 minutes flat round trip** CLEANLINESS: 10/10 Spotless, immaculate, towels were perfection, tidy (not cluttered!) COMFORT: Bedrooms & beds were cozy, comfy & CLIMATE controlled(A/C!) PRO Insider tips: * Don't stand too still in the shower, you'll end up wet in the dark, like I did with the Motion sensor automatic lights... * Brought beach towels for everyone; bring twice as many as you think you'll need. The entire experience exceeded our expectations, from the gorgeous location to the wonderful accommodations and excellent communication. I don't ever want to leave! We would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend this beach house to anyone looking for the perfect coastal vacation. Ten/10 stars all around!

I don't think I could come up with something negative if you held a gun to my head! The roof deck was the crown jewel, but there were 3 different outdoor areas to relax, lounge, etc each with a view, or privacy, and in some cases both. The inside was exactly as pictured and described. Spacious, well-appointed, and complete. Bathrooms, bedrooms, and kitchen were all spotlessly clean and free of sand--which is saying something because we were 1 block from the beach! The view, the proximity to the beach, the walkability to restaurants and shops, I can't imagine ever even looking for something better! We were able to accommodate 3 1/2 couples! Finally, the host was on call and responded immediately on even the most minor of questions. Plus, they proactively reached out a couple times to make sure all was well!

Each experience was unique and provided a ton of family memories. This rental property provides a first-class view of the ocean and is two steps from the boardwalk and beach. Our family and friends have never experienced a more convenient location- in terms of closeness to the beach and within a short walk to the grocery store, bar and grills, local shopping and surf school. We will probably vacation here forever because of the prime location and the owner and her assistant. They are always pleasant and willing to go the extra mile to assure the comfort of our family. Recently, each unit was updated with fresh paint, new tile, and new furniture. There is also a grill provided for summer family BBQs. We cannot thank Diane and NP Beachhouse enough for the wonderful hospitality and great family experience!
