Great place

Clean and well situated. Host was super responsive and the backyard patio with the big dinner table was a nice touch. We had all our meals there and spent a lot of time relaxing there. Would stay here again.

Good location, a bit dated inside

We found this location to be great for all downtown activities in Avalon. Tried to check in early, and owner said he would notify us when cleaning crew was done. Never got that call, despite them being done early. Found all the smoke detectors out of service and notified the owner (the "on island" point of contact) per his request in their pamphlet. Said he couldn't get to the repairs for several weeks as he wasn't on island. My sense is that for a safety item, something should have been done (there are craftsmen and a hardware store on island), but it wasn't. For this reason, we will not be staying in this unit again.

Absolutely beautiful, clean & spacious condo! Perfect location just minutes from the beach and shops. It was a perfect place for our little family to come put our feet up after a long day on the island. The hosts were very communicative and gracious. Would absolutely recommend and looking forward to staying again next year!

Overall, this was a wonderful place to stay. We stayed in a similar floor plan last year, but this house is 100% better.Other than some minor cleanliness issue upon arrival the trip was 100% success. (only reason for not 5 stars)Beds were comfortable, backyard was a hit, perfect for those evening dinners...or breakfasts :) Kitchen was fully stocked and had every dish, plate, cookware that we needed. More towels and linens than you'd need.And best of all, working washer and dryer, which was very helpful.We will be back for sure, thank you!

This was an amazing home. Beautiful inside and out with an easy to get to location. The property owners were amazing and couldn't have been more kind to us. The home had more than enough space for the four of us as well. Our next trip to Catalina, we will be seeing if this home is available again ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
