Balboa Bay Resort

In the heart of Orange County, California, lies a dreamy escape that perfectly encapsulates the quintessential charm of this sun-kissed region. Welcome to Balboa Bay Resort, a stunning waterfront property that sprawls across 15 acres and offers a multitude of attractions and amenities.

The resort is a hub for summer entertainment, hosting concerts, screening films, and throwing spectacular Fourth of July barbecues. It's not just about the festive atmosphere; it's about creating unforgettable experiences. Dreaming of a classic Southern California adventure? The concierge can set you up with a 1965 Mustang rental, complete with maps and a picnic basket, for a scenic drive along the magnificent Pacific Coast Highway.


Set against the backdrop of the Mediterranean-style building are lush landscapes filled with fragrant jasmine and succulents. The resort also boasts three Duffy boats that transport guests to local waterside eateries and serve as fun additions to team-building exercises.


Balboa Bay Resort has seen significant transformations over the years, transitioning from old-school nautical elegance to a more coastal, contemporary, and modern aesthetic. This evolution reflects the casual elegance of Newport Beach, a trait that the resort embodies beautifully.


The resort has a rich history of hosting celebrities, politicians, and even presidents. Figures like Humphrey Bogart, Lauren Bacall, Jerry Seinfeld, Jim Carrey, George H.W. Bush, and John Wayne have all graced the premises.


Despite its luxurious ambiance, the resort maintains a relaxed dress code, allowing guests to embrace the laid-back Southern California lifestyle. Located between Los Angeles and San Diego, the resort overlooks the Pacific Coast Highway on one side and the tranquil waters on the other.


Guests can enjoy an outdoor, heated, Olympic-size pool that uses mineral ionizers and low levels of chlorine for a comfortable swim. The resort also offers access to a private beach, waterfront pools, private restaurants, and a state-of-the-art spa and fitness center spanning 10,000 square feet.



Accommodation options range from bayview, courtyard, and Newport rooms to one-bedroom suites and a lavish Presidential Suite. All rooms are spacious and feature private balconies, high-definition flat-screen TVs, DVD players, and luxury bath products.


The resort's design draws inspiration from a traditional yacht club, with a red-terra-cotta-tiled roof, classical columns, cream-and-gold stone floors, and a circular tiled mosaic illustrating the moon’s phases. The color palette leans towards warm taupe and blues, complemented by rustic woods and woven rattan furniture pieces that further enhance the nautical theme.


Balboa Bay Resort offers 24-hour room service, a gym, meeting rooms, an outdoor pool, pet-friendly services, multiple restaurants, and a spa, making it a perfect destination for both relaxation and adventure. In essence, it's a slice of Southern California paradise that promises a dream vacation.
