Newport Harbor Island Resort

Absolutely delightful stay at the resort. We had a lovely view of the grounds, pool, and two areas of water, as well as the bridge. Parking was very easy, the spa was incredibly relaxing with a great locker room and lounge room before an amazing massage, and we were even able to check in over four hours early! My only complaint was that it was a bit loud in the hallways- we could hear the elevator close to our room as well as people talking and doors closing very easily inside our room in the early morning.

I recently had the pleasure of staying at this incredible resort, and I can honestly say it exceeded all expectations. From the moment I arrived, the service was exceptional, the grounds were immaculate, and the atmosphere was nothing short of paradise. One of the true highlights of my stay was the outstanding service provided by Alexa, one of the waiters at the resort. Alexa went above and beyond every single day — always greeting me with a warm smile, remembering my preferences, and making thoughtful recommendations that made every meal feel special. His professionalism, kindness, and attention to detail truly elevated my experience. It’s rare to come across someone who clearly loves what they do and makes such a lasting impression.

My husband and I stayed for one night and had a wonderful time. We arrived around Noon and were pleasantly surprised when our room was ready — we dropped off our bags and headed to the pool. Beautiful pool and grounds, well kept. We took the water taxi to and from Bowen’s Wharf for drinks and then went back to the hotel for dinner outside at the Torpedo Cafe. The hostess had zero personality and we surprised by her lack of hospitality. Our waitress, Grace, was incredible and we would highly recommend her. Grace was attentive, funny, personable, and an all around joy. Breakfast service at 9:30 AM on a Monday was slow and the same hostess was working at Torpedo — she was again, not welcoming. Each of our meals was excellent. The coffee shop and gift shop were lovely too. We would definitely return, we had a great time!
