Description

Balboa Island is an absolute jewel in the middle of Newport Bay. There is a 1.6 mile walkway around the perimeter and a charming 2 block main street with unique shops and fine and casual dining, literally around the corner! My cottage is very inviting. Features a courtyard with outdoor fireplace. It is one bedroom with two bathrooms and a separate sleeping area off of the living room. Perfect for two or a small family. It is possible to sleep one additional person on the twin bed size couch. Centrally located between Los Angeles and San Diego. Great for day trips. 
 
The neighborhood is very relaxed. This is a popular destination so there is a fair amount of activity which makes the courtyard a welcome retreat. My home is one street away from the main street. It is so very quaint! There is a big mixture of old beach houses and new upscale construction. It is a very wealthy area with down-to-earth residents.  
BTW, while I prefer payment by check as there are no fees, let me know if you would like another option!

Wonderful hide away


We throughly love staying here. Very cosy and clean. An incredible hide away in the centre of Newport. We walked everywhere! Jill is a fantastic and generous host. We will definitely plan to stay here again

Charming Historic Island Bungalow


Jill\'s house was a great time for myself and our family. Right off the main drag of Balboa Island walking distance to all Island amenities, restaurants and shops. A little more noise due to having the businesses behind the home but nothing to deter your stay as the island is densely populated and part of the charm. Jill was very accommodating and helped with any questions or issues that came up during our stay. Would definitely stay again!

Excellent Home


I stayed here for spring break with my two kids. Great location, short walk to Starbucks and several excellent restaurents. Beds were comfortable and the house was clean. Great location and cozy little house. Will definately be back in the future.

Very comfortable and quiet retreat


We stayed at enchanted onyx for a family wedding, extending our stay to enjoy the lifestyle and opportunities on Balboa Island. Jill was a perfect host, ensuring we had everything we needed to enhance our stay, including parking. The location is great, though it\'s a little noisy first thing in the morning with the truck traffic on Marine and the planes from nearby SNA airport, though some of that may be due to the business of the holiday weekend. But don\'t let that scare you. If you\'re a small family or group, this is a great and affordable option to get the best of an experience on Balboa Island.

We loved it!!


My wife and I thouroghly enjoyed our week at Jill\'s Enchanted Onyx. The proximity to the main Avenue with restaurants and Starbucks was very convenient. The home was comfortable, clean and very spacious. We rented bicycles for the week and rarely needed to drive. Speaking of which Jill assures parking for a vehicle directly in front of the property. We are already planning a stay here for next year. We loved it!!
