Newport Beach, home to Newport Harbor and Balboa Island, is
fifty miles from Los Angeles, fourteen miles from Disneyland in
Anaheim and thirty miles from Catalina Island. It's a great
place to get away from it all but still have it all. It is a
small, population approximately 72,000, affluent city surrounded
by major attractions.
Rent a condo or villa, stay at an inexpensive motel, park your
RV at the Newport Dunes Resort & Marina, check into a medium
priced hotel or pamper yourself at a luxury hotel like the
Balboa Bay Club & Resort which shares the same address as the
Balboa Bay Club ("The Balboa Bay Club which boasts a
star-studded history with a guest register bearing the
signatures of luminaries, including John Wayne, Ronald and Nancy
Regan, Humphrey Bogart, Lauren Bacall, Robert Wagner, Natalie
Wood and many more."), Four Seasons, Hyatt Regency, Mariott or
the Balboa Inn.
Dine at one of the many excellent restaurants like the Newport
Landing Restaurant ("Newport Landing is Newport Beach. Located
on the Bay overlooking the historic Balboa Ferry with a
panoramic view of Newport Harbor, Balboa Island, Newport Center,
and the distant peaks of Saddleback."), The Ritz Restaurant &
Garden ("Synonymous with elegance, gracious service and
award-winning cuisine."), The Sol Restaurant in the Hyatt
Regency Newport Beach (Featuring World Island cuisine from the
Caribbean, South Pacific, and Gulf of Mexico.), Woody's Wharf
("Live entertainment Friday and Saturday night. Valet parking
and quest slips available fo the boaters.") or The Harborside
Restaurant and Grand Ballroom ("Famous for its world-renowned
cupola and illuminated by more than 1,400 white lights, the
Balboa Pavilion has served as the beacon of Newport Beach for
almost a century."). These are but a few of the fine restaurants
in Newport Beach.
Spend some time at the clean sandy beaches, cruise the large
smooth water harbor while viewing the large yachts and multi
million dollar homes, charter a sport fishing boat, rent a sail
boat, have a party or get married on a chartered yacht, take a
ride in a gondola, visit the Orange County Museum of Art, visit
the many gift shops, art galleries and sidewalk cafes on Balboa
Island, visit the boardwalk shops and restaurants at Newport
Pier, visit or take a swim at Pirates Cove, which is best known
for the filming of Gilligans Island, go hikeing, horseback
riding, scuba diving or surfing at Crystal Cove State Park or
catch a ride to Catalina Island.
If for some reason you need more to do, close by you will find
Disneyland in Anaheim, Knott's Berry Farm and Movieland
Wax Museum in Buena Park and golf courses galore.
