Newport
beach is a sophisticated town located on the coast in the Southern part of California. It is a centralized location for many activities in Southern California, making it a popular spot for those looking for a beach vacation. Newport Beach is an expensive spot to live year-round, so rentals tend to be expensive.
Average Cost
Most rentals are for a week at a time. They average about $2,000 to $3,000 per week (as of 2009).
Parking
Parking is a major issue in the town. Make sure that your house comes with a garage or designated spaces.
Benefits
Many beachfront homes have their own docks or harbor spaces, making them ideal for those who want to sail or jet ski without having to haul equipment to a slip.
Time Frame
Rentals are available all year. The house must be registered as a guest house with the city for it to be rented legally.
Geography
A rental in Newport offers access to the nearby UC Irvine campus, as well as the city of Irvine itself, which is a major employment center.
