Harbor House | Harbor Retreat

Experience Newport Beach from the water's edge. Harbor House is a charming bayfront retreat in the heart of Balboa Village, just steps from the Balboa Fun Zone, the Balboa Ferry, waterfront restaurants, harbor cruises, whale watching, and the beach. Perfect for couples, small families, or friends, this unique getaway combines an unbeatable location with dedicated parking and front-row access to everything that makes Newport Beach unforgettable.

Some vacations are about checking off attractions. Others are about slowing down and enjoying a place where everything happens at an easy pace. Harbor House lets you do both.

Located directly on Newport Harbor, this private garage apartment places you in the middle of one of Newport Beach's most iconic waterfront neighborhoods. Spend the morning walking the harbor with coffee in hand, rent a Duffy boat for the afternoon, hop on the Balboa Ferry to Balboa Island, or book a whale watching excursion from Davey's Locker—all without moving your car.

Inside, the home is thoughtfully designed for couples, small families, or friends looking for a comfortable place to recharge between adventures. The main bedroom features a king bed with its own en suite bathroom, while a spiral staircase leads to a loft with a queen Murphy bed, providing flexible accommodations for additional guests.

The fully equipped kitchen makes it easy to prepare meals when you choose to stay in, while Newport Beach's restaurants, cafés, and waterfront dining are just a short walk away.

One dedicated covered parking space is included—a valuable convenience in a neighborhood where parking can be difficult to find.

Whether your perfect day includes relaxing on the beach, exploring Newport Harbor, shopping on Balboa Island, or simply watching boats drift by, Harbor House places it all within easy reach.

Harbor House sits in one of Newport Beach's most vibrant waterfront locations.

Walk to the Balboa Fun Zone, browse local shops, enjoy casual waterfront restaurants, grab pizza or ice cream along the boardwalk, or catch the Balboa Ferry across the harbor to Balboa Island. Davey's Locker is just steps away, offering whale watching excursions, fishing charters, harbor cruises, and boat rentals.

When you're ready for the beach, the Pacific Ocean is just a short walk across the Peninsula.

This is the kind of location where you can park when you arrive and spend the rest of your vacation exploring on foot.

John Wayne Airport (SNA) is approximately 20 minutes away.

Many of Newport Beach's most popular attractions are within walking distance, including restaurants, beaches, shops, harbor activities, and the Balboa Ferry. Uber and Lyft are readily available for exploring Orange County beyond the Peninsula.
