The downstairs toilet did not work because there was rust in the tank, so it could not be used during the stay. The upstairs shower was extremely small. It required bending over the entire time just to shower.An email was sent to the contact provided about the toilet issue, but no response was received.Overall, the place did not feel worth the price paid. The location on Catalina is great, but the maintenance issues and lack of communication made the stay frustrating.

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.

Time capsule to Catalina’s Past

The location was ideal being in walking distance to most of Catalina’s attractions. The house was not as clean as we expected and we did not have a working fridge initially however property management did respond offering a mini replacement and when alerted about cleanliness promised they would address with cleaners for future visits. It was a quaint cottage-like home that I would recommend once the above items are resolved.

Avalon vacation

We Just stayed for three nights. Flooring is very uneven throughout the home - I worry about the safety of the foundation of this house. Lots of noise outside on the street with golf carts coming and going at all hours. I prefer something quieter.

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.

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.

Having to produce ID the night before seemed wrong. Show the debit card and driver's lic. picture after paying directly in full 3 weeks prior. Having to pay VRBO and Catalina Island Vacation rental fees was truly double fees versus booking direct with CIVR

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.

Thanksgiving Family Adventure

The house is well located. The kitchen has lacking needed items for cooking a meal. Absolutely no knives or cooking sheets. Bathroom clean and functional. Overall flooring was very dirty. Walking across the floor on bare feet would leave them black. Light bulbs or light fixtures not working. We have rented several homes on the island. This one will not be in our rotation.
