We truly enjoyed our stay at the Sea Sight property in Newport! - Like many of the other reviews, yes there is a night and day noise factor related to the amount of pedestrian traffic, vehicles that frequent the neighborhood, (especially the weekend) but when you are located on a street that dead ends at one of the most beautiful beaches in southern California, and a block away from all the local bars and restaurants in the area, noise is to be expected. This is a very active, fun area, so if you are looking for perfect location location location for easy access to the beach, outdoor activities and food and beverage, this is the place for you! The property itself is beautiful older/historical wood architecture, and overall the place is comfortable, the 2nd level patio is the perfect place to chill with friends and family around the fire pit with a partial beach/ocean view and wonderful ocean breezes. The only criticism is the hide-a-bed couch in the den/living room that could use an upgrade. Last but not least, the 'hosts' Nolan and Eduardo were great! Very helpful, friendly and responsive. We will definitely be back!!!
