balboa island is a gem whether you drive, walk, bike or take the balboa island ferry to the island Balboa Island’s Marine Avenue is home to chic coastal shops featuring unique nautical designs, stylish beach fashions, art and jewelry. It’s also home to quaint restaurants and bistros serving up a variety of dishes bursting with flavor. The selections on Balboa Island go beyond the local fresh seafood of the day with flavors of Italian, Mexican, and French-Swiss mixed in to the culinary choices.
there may be nothing more iconic than the island’s two famous desserts, the balboa bar and frozen banana The local sweet tooth treasures have been mainstays for nearly 75 years, and have been imitated and replicated, including on the hit TV show “Arrested Development.” The tasty treats are dipped in chocolate and covered with a variety of coatings from nuts and sprinkles to cookie crumbs.
if you want to visit the disneyland, our property is located just under 20 miles to the resort and it's two main parks After a great day at the parks, you can return back to your villa, refresh, relax, and take a stroll down to the beach.
if you are interested in the laguna beach pageant of masters during july, this is a fantastic place to stay Lyft or Uber is the easiest way to get to the event. You can enjoy a nice glass of wine on the balcony before your ride picks you up and takes you to Laguna Beach.
additional local attractions include disneyland, knott’s berry farm, whale watching (included in the free fun package), aquarium of the pacific, south coast plaza, and fashion island
but a trip to balboa island wouldn’t be complete without a visit to the balboa fun zone or the peninsula, where the ferris wheel has stood for more than 80 years, and the world famous balboa island ferry The Ferry is about 10 minute walk from the cottage.
this cottage can also be rented in conjunction with the front unit for larger families
