Balboa Bay Club and Resort, Newport Beach

While being a member of this exclusive resort and club has its advantages, it is not necessary. Non-members can also enjoy the luxury of this hotel, which is one of the largest bayfront properties in the United States. The waterfront rooms feature gorgeous views and the property features many amenities that you won't find at regular hotels, like a full-size indoor basketball court, racquetball and tennis courts, barbershop, beauty salon and a private marina for guest yachts that also features a boat rental service. The hotel is located only a few minutes from John Wayne International Airport, Fashion Island and South Coast Plaza.
