Balboa Bay Resort

Stayed here on a business trip after a few years. The hotel is super convenient for business in Newport Beach and is well located near the Balboa Peninsula. The staff here are excellent. Special acknowledgement to the front desk employee, Fateenmah, who was courteous, knowledgeable and efficient. She’s a good ambassador for the hotel. I stayed in a nice room on the third floor of the Club as opposed to the main hotel. It’s quieter over there normally and my room had a great view of Lido Island. If you can get a room in the club, do it. This time however they are doing work on the club members pool so the construction noise was loud in the morning. The hotel pool remains open. Folks at A O restaurant were cheery and helpful. Overall good visit and this remains a good hotel. Will definitely come back.

Wonderful, helpful staff. Great location and beautiful room. They are doing construction on the pool right outside at the moment is the only setback.

Beautiful, excellent service, convenient location. The room is big. Most customers have luxury cars. Ocean view with balcony. Location is closed to most beaches.

This is our second stay at Balboa Bay Resort and like the first, our stay has been wonderful. The staff is friendly and welcoming. With things such as a personalized welcome note and special treats for our son they went beyond the expected to make our stay special. Our room is spacious, comfortable, clean and has a great view of the bay. The onsite restaurant, A + O, is excellent. We really like the Balboa Bay Resort and plan to return.

I stayed at Balboa Bay Resort for a short staycation and had a genuinely relaxing and enjoyable experience. The waterfront setting is beautiful and peaceful, with marina views that immediately set a calming tone. My room was spacious, quiet, and very comfortable l. It well laid out and easy to settle into. The overall property feels elegant without being stuffy, which made it a great place to truly unwind rather than feel “on display” in a luxury setting. Service throughout my stay was consistently warm and professional. Staff were attentive and kind without being intrusive, and everything from check-in to dining and room service felt smooth and well managed. This is an ideal choice for a restful coastal getaway or staycation if you’re looking for comfort, calm, and thoughtful service. I left feeling refreshed and would absolutely return.
