Little Inn By The Bay Newport Beach  

On Newport Beach’s Balboa Peninsula, just a block from the sand and steps from Newport Pier and Balboa Pier. Balboa Island is under 3 miles away and Corona del Mar about 5 miles. A beach-adjacent, city-center spot that puts the bay and local attractions within easy reach.

This petite, 18-room inn has a low-key beach-boutique vibe. Rooms feature pillowtop beds with premium bedding, air conditioning, refrigerators, microwaves and coffee machines, plus 32-inch LCD cable TVs (some rooms include DVD players). Beach chairs, towels and other gear are provided so you can hit the sand fast.

Complimentary wired and wireless internet, a 24-hour front desk and multilingual staff. Concierge and a tour desk help arrange local excursions, and there’s a picnic area on the grounds. On-site self parking is available (may be subject to charges) — wake up to sea-breeze mornings and stroll to the pier.

Complimentary high-speed (wired) internet and free Wi‑Fi, plus a 24-hour front desk and concierge services.

No on-site restaurant listed, but you can grab a drink at one of roughly 10 beach bars a short walk away.
