Fire up the barbecue on the rooftop terrace and you'll understand why this Newport Beach house is a cut above the rest. The light-filled main bedroom and a kitchen made for cooking together set a relaxed, convivial tone inside, while outside the beach and Newport Beach Pier are steps away. From here, Balboa Island is a short ferry ride across the water – think seafood, charming shops, and a historic Ferris wheel – making it easy to explore one of California's most beloved stretches of coastline without ever needing a plan.

Home truths
This home sits on the first floor, and your outdoor space is the upstairs terrace only – the downstairs patio is not available to you during your stay.
Bedroom two has a single-over-double bunk bed which can sleep up to three people. This room might be best suited to children.
The reservation holder must be at least 25 years old and will need to be present for the full duration of the stay – worth bearing in mind when deciding who leads the booking.
Newport Beach is a car-friendly city and free parking is available on the premises, so arriving by car is straightforward. If you plan to explore further afield – Crystal Cove State Park or Fashion Island, for example – you'll find having a car handy.

About Newport Beach
Newport Beach was a playground to many of Hollywood's elite with a combination of old school glamour and a cool, laid back surfer vibe. Back in the day, it served as The Hamptons to the Beverly Hills crowd, especially keen yachtsmen like Humphrey Bogart. John Wayne also had an oceanfront mansion here, and you can instantly imagine all the glam parties this exclusive neighbourhood has experienced. You certainly need true...
