We love Newport Coast Villas. We have no problem enjoying the area for a week at a time as there is much to do on and near the property. I suggest that you look up the resort on the internet and then call the concierge for a list of activities/events/nearby community events, etc. There is much to do in the areas from San Diego on the south to Santa Barbara on the north. One caution, I would not recommend using the property as a hub for visiting a large area due to the driving distances and traffic. The weather is great year round in Southern California coastal areas - July and August are best for the beaches. 'Hope this helps.
