The house was amazing. From the location to the comfort, we loved it. We loved being able to walk out the door and being at the beach in less than a minute or walking along the store fronts. The only negative, very small, there were no directions on what we were allowed to use. Highly recommended this house for stays on the island.

This place had all we needed. Very close to the beach / shops / restaurants. Good bed configuration for family of 5. A/C in rooms which was a life saver in the heat. It’s not fancy and is an older home showing some wear in the bathrooms but it’s a cute beach place with all we needed and we will stay here again!

Location is amazing. Walked to everything, including the Ferry. Home is dated and in need of some basic upgrades, but overall, amazing. Might suggest bringing a power strip for the downstairs bedroom.

Catalina October vacation

The house we stayed in was wonderful. Excellent location. We could walk to everything. Even though it's on a very trafficed street, it wasn't noisy. The property was clean, cared for, and the property managers were available and easy to deal with.

Great Location!

We loved our family stay in this home. Great time away before our Senior graduates. Close to town, beach, and shops. Description just like listed. Our only problem was the washing machine wasn't working (we usually like to do laundry on our vacations) but other than that no issues at all.

Great stay

Previous reviews were very helpful. Overall this was a great place to stay, close to town, great location. The washing machine didn't work, neither did the cable. The sliding closet door in the downstairs bedroom is broken and could be dangerous for young kids. Super cute spot but could use a little TLC/deep clean, and also not perfect for very tall people. We had a great time though, it was perfect for my 82 year old mom and my 18 year old son...location was a big sell.

Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication
Disliked: Listing accuracy
I am only able to give this location a 2 star rating. I will start with the positive. The location was easy to find, access instructions were easy to follow and execute, the home was clean and stocked with towels, toiletries, and kitchen items. The great location is the bonus and the highlight. The home itself however was poorly maintained. There were light bulbs out in several rooms, which made the poor lighting overall even worse. The fan in the bathroom squeaked so loud we didn't use it. While the beds were conformable enough, the living room sofa was not comfortable. We can look past the age of the home, most houses on the island are very old. But the overall lack of upgrades and minimal maintenance was a disappointment. I would not book this location again.

Great location, if a bit tired

I can’t imagine a better location for a rental stay in Avalon., In the flat streets, near the boardwalk and ferry terminal. The property is a bit tired, but served our needs. The stairs leading upstairs are not to current code in several aspects (pitch, run, railing) so be careful. The most unpleasant aspect was the pool of stagnant water with mosquito larvae. That I see as a property management issue, so hopefully our pointing it out to them will address that issue. All said, we might stay there again if that was addresses. It so hard to find a place so close to town center.

Location, location

This house was ok. For the price we were expecting a little more. We have stayed at many hotels and str’sThe kitchen was ok but expected to have some way to store leftovers, wrap or rubber ware, coffee was not supplied. It really was the little things that added up. The bikes had flat tires, one portable heater didn’t work (house is cold so it is needed)and the blinds on front door need replacing. The office staff were very friendly and even offered us to be able to stay a little later. The location was perfect for our needs. The place just needs a littleold.

Catalina is lovely

The town of Avalon is so cute and definitely worth the trip. The VRBO is adequate but I’m not sure I’d stay here again. The location was amazing but the house seems more like your grandmas house that hasn’t been updated in at least 20 years. We spent most of our time hanging out and watching tv in the bedroom because the living room couch cushions have seen better days. It took a couple of days before we found the washer/dryer mentioned in the listing, because it’s outside! It was requested for us to was and out away dishes before leaving, which we did but there’s no dishwasher and there’s no dish rack. The bedroom tv remote only had one battery in it, but no extra batteries could be found — so now the living room remote only has one battery.
