Default OT; Need ideas from Newport Beach members

The Family has decided they want to spend spring break (March 23- April 3) in Newport Beach, so....I'm looking for advice on some nice places to stay where kids (11-16years old) would be welcome. Ideas? Either where to go or even where to stay away from?

Thanks

The Backbay in Newport would be fun.
All kinds of family oriented amenities, from swimming lagoon to sailboat, kayak, windsurf rentals rentals.
Night life and good food are a couple minutes drive.
Make sure to rent a Duffy electric boat for a harbor tour and to get some dinner in Newport Harbor.

Best of luck. Dave

They would have more fun in Huntington Beach, theres a nice Hyatt and Hilton there on PCH across from the beach and near the pier. Newport is only a few miles from there.

Your 16'er will have NO PROBLEM finding fun in Newport Beach.

NOOOOOOO PROBLEMO . . .
Just drop 'em at the Pier in the morning, and go their bail at Midnight.
