Lovely place!
This is a lovely, very comfortable place in a spectacular location. Easy walking to the waterfront and grocery stores but quiet, very comfortably appointed, and terrific for a family. We were there with our adult kids and brother/sister-in-law for a New Year’s vacation and we had a fabulous time. We’d love to stay there again!

Warm and Inviting
Our stay was wonderful, the home was well stocked, very comfortable and open. We were walking distance to shops, restaurants and just about everything you would need. I would stay here again. Property manager was quick to respond with questions. Check in and check out were easy.

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
This place is five stars for location. If you’re looking for a place to stay in Avalon that’s walking close to main areas and grocery store, this is the place. Flat. No hills to get to and from. We had a great girls weekend. Three of us. Loved being able to walk back and forth when we wanted a break or change of clothes, etc. The street is quite busy but can’t be heard in the bedrooms. Decor very cute. Bathrooms look relatively newly updated. Beds were comfortable - even the bunks (I slept in one of those). TV great. Easy to use and navigate. We dropped to three stars because a of a few things to note: 1. No dishwasher 2. Not really any outdoor seating - tiny back patio - no view or greenery (used for storage of beach chairs, toys) 3. Back bathroom is light and bright but has no privacy on big windows to outside tiny patio- very awkward. 4. Bathrooms seemed clean, bed linens and towels clean, but kitchen drawer pulls, door handles, door jams, etc, could use a scrub. A bit more attention to regular maintenance and cleaning detail would bring this place up to five star.

We loved this place! Very happy with the living space for all six adults to relax after fun day exploring Catalina. Dining table was great size for board games and bathrooms were clean and remodeled nicely. Beach chairs were available which was very much appreciated. Beds and pillows were all comfortable. Kitchen was fine too. Could’ve used a full size coffee maker though. Overall great place!

Pictures on web-site may be misleading
We rented this unit for 2-nights and paid more than $2,800 for it. The pictures on the VRBO web-site gave us the impression that it would be newer, modern condo. The reality was far from it. The bathrooms had old dirty tiles. One of the bathrooms had large glass windows with no curtains, offered no privacy. The other bathroom was dark, with almost no sunlight. The fan in the front room did not work. The family room lacked a fan. There was no dish-washer. The unit was outrageously priced for what it had to offer. Sadly, VRBO does not seem to require or enforce any living standards and upkeep consistent with pricing. I shall definitely not rent this property again.

Veronica was there for whatever we needed! she was awesome. We loved the location, just a few minutes from the beach and all the Main Street restaurants. The home is very comfortable and clean. It’s hard to find three bedrooms with lots of living space.

Great space and location, be prepared in winter
We loved the large living room and dining room spaces to spread out in. The location is perfect for walking everywhere in Avalon! We happened to stay over a cold weekend and there is no central heat other than the gas fireplace. There are also space heaters but they can’t all be on at once or they trip the circuit breaker. Thankfully there were plenty of extra blankets and comforters. Just be prepared in winter that the place is chilly. Other than that we really loved it and would likely stay there again on a warmer weekend.
