Wow!! Just wow!!

This place did not disappoint! Matt is an attentive and detail oriented host. The apartment was absolutely wonderful. We will be back. Matt made some great recommendations for our vacation at Newport. We stayed for five nights with three of our children for our 24th anniversary. The location was awesome. Close to everything. Just steps to the beach. We loved our stay, and the communication with the host couldn’t be beat. Everything you need is there. It was so nice to have a garage parking spot. We loved that part. It’s great to be able to have space for your vehicle and beach toys. The hide a beds were awesome and comfortable, our kids had no complaints. It was fun to sit out on the deck, and enjoy a drink at night. We also enjoyed a lot of takeout out there. Perfect location!! You won’t be disappointed. Thanks for everything, Matt.

About the host

Hosted by Matt Pentecost

I am a real estate broker and manage this property for my family. As a native southern-Calfornian, I love coming to the beach and know that you will too!

Why they chose this property

This property has belonged to my family for years and it has been my home-away-from-home as I was growing up. We still use the property when it is vacant since it is such a beautiful location with such great proximity to everything and provides all the amenities we could ask for.

What makes this property unique

The short walk to the beach has been wonderful as my family has created long-lasting memories of playing in the sand, surfing, and watching the sun set...only to return to a delicious bbq dinner on the patio.
