2025 looked VERY different than 2024 in this home, sadly!

We brought our kids (6) and granddaughters (2) to Catalina again, as we did last summer. The house is very run down & dirty since last year; the floors, the carpets, the bedding is old (flat pillows are horrible) and mattress covers unclean! Sadly, we had no possibility to keep our windows & blinds open, letting the sun in, during the day because of the heavy construction happening all day long on Tremont, which is the street the back of the house sits on, the patio side. The loudness of the machinery frightened our 2.5 year young granddaughter. ;( We booked this vacation on Jan. 27, 2025. There was no mention of any construction happening in the window of time we booked: June 7-12th, 2025. Believe me, we would have not booked at this home, had it been told to us. In the months we paid for the trip, there was no mention of the work being done, streets torn up!I feel this is very misleading and dishonest to all who want to come to Catalina and relax, rest, find peace for our hard working kids! I am posting this so that other families can know that besides the construction, the home is rundown and not cared for .....before they book this home. BTW- I did attempt to talk with the management company, but they cut me off, saying a statement of construction happening was posted on the details of the house on the VRBO site today. I recommend for the balance of the construction time, they let everyone interested in a "family vacation" know in a very direct way. And, clean!

Perfect spot for family

This property was perfect for a family get away. We love Catalina and were able to sleep 8 adults comfortably. Has big living area and built-in BBQ, which we used. Overall great spot for a larger group 8 to 10.

Everything about this house was fantastic!!! Only one small critique was that the patio was dirty. This was something I noticed from past reviewers so I think it would have been corrected.

Lovely home would definitely stay again!

Great house! Spacious, clean, updated and roomy. A bit of traffic noise at night but tolerable. Location is great as it’s walkimg distance but not too close to be bothered by front street noise. The dining table was great, really great size for a big group. Would definitely come back for another stay. Also the puzzles were an awesome surprise.

Disappointing Stay — Unclean, Noisy, and Poorly Managed

We stayed at this home over Mother’s Day weekend and were really excited to share Catalina with family. While the location is walkable and close to shops, our experience in the home itself left a lot to be desired.The home was not thoroughly cleaned before our arrival. An upstairs sink was clogged and unusable, the bathtub had mold and hair, and the toilet showed visible stains. It was disappointing to find these issues upon check-in, and it impacted our comfort during the stay. A metal shot glass was also found inside the garbage disposal, which we had to remove ourselves. The dishwasher was broken and while a repair was offered, it would have disrupted our short vacation.The house is located on a very busy street in Avalon, and we experienced near-constant golf cart and emergency vehicle traffic at night, which made it difficult to sleep. Streetlights shine directly through the windows, and there were no blackout curtains to help with noise or brightness.With a group of nine, we were also surprised at the limited basic supplies—only two extra rolls of toilet paper were provided, and there were no dish towels. These are small things that made a noticeable difference.We did contact the rental company and were issued a partial refund. While we appreciated the gesture, we expected a higher standard for the rate we paid. This property has potential, but it needs better cleaning protocols, maintenance checks, and guest comfort considerations to be worth recommending.

Great large house in Avalon

We stayed here with a group of 10 of parents kids and grandparents. The layout of the house was great with 3 master suite style bedrooms it made it easy for the parents and grandparents to split the rooms up and the bunk beds and twins were great for the kids. The kitchen and driving room are spacious with plenty of room for everyone. The property is showing some wear and tear,, the gate for the patio is broken, one half of the outside gas grill as well as the outside refrigerator we’re broken etc. but overall the property was a great space for a big family vacation

Family Bliss

The layout of the home was exceptional for our style vacation. Most of our time was spent in the main living area adjacent to the outdoor patio area, which combines well. Our only complaint would be that the patio area had not been cleaned from recent storms and the bar-b-que that we used twice was in poor condition. Part of our decision to stay at this property was the proximity of the outdoor and indoor space. We also like cooking together and found the kitchen well equipped but missing a few things that would support a large group. Overall stay was fantastic and look forward to another stay at this property.

Need updates

Our family has stayed here numerous times over the years. We’ve always been very happy with our stay, but we did notice a few things this time that needed updating. The dishwasher doesn’t wash very well. I guess it never had done so very well, but this time it was enough to have to wash everything even after the dishes went thru the dishwasher. The dryer stopped tumbling when we were there. The downstairs 1/2 bath toilet would sing a siren-squealing sound after every flush. Luckily, it was only used during the day and nobody had to wake up to that in the middle of the night. The grill lighter did not work, so we had to find matches and ultimately bought a grill lighter to light the grill, because it was very hard to light the grill with matches. The worst of it all was the heater! The top floor would heat up, but not the downstairs. Seeing that all the upstairs vents to the rooms were already closed, we figured we’re not the only one who had this problem. So to heat up to downstairs, we had to set the thermostat up and open the bathroom windows in the upstairs bedroom to sleep in comfort. The fireplace downstairs helped, but not enough. We still had to have family bring a portable heater to the island to use for the downstairs bedroom. There were no kitchen towels. We had to buy paper towels to use for the duration of our stay. The good update was that hand soaps were provided & they’ve always provided plenty of dishes! Always great for multi-generation families!

Plenty of space

10 of us were there and had plenty of room. We were able to sit together at the dining table and in the living room! Unfortunately they don't decorate for Christmas so we brought our own and made it look beautiful. We cooked our own breakfast each morning, dishes were good enough however the oven doesn't close all the way so I pushed the door in so it can reach the temperature needed. I think the fridge didn't close all the way either because the light was on after closing. Everything else was fine and we would go again.

October stay

The house was big, rooms and bathrooms were perfect for our large group and everyone was comfortable! Some things we weren’t happy with was the patio was very dirty and did not look like it had been cleaned in a long time, there was even old dog poop under a chair. We were told box fans had been placed in every bedroom closet which was not the case. The 2 box fans provided were filthy and had dust caked onto them and another fan provided did not work. Communication was great up until I let the management property know about the status of the fans and asked for more and or new fans….never heard back! The house is on a very busy corner so it was loud at times, we even had people run by and bang on the windows a couple of times. The extra fans in the rooms would probably have helped drowned out the noise. The kitchen was nicely stocked with any utensils and dishes we needed.

Cute but not very clean

This property is cute, spacious (we had 8 ppl very comfortably), away from the craziness of the boardwalk but close enough to walk. There is quite a bit of car and walking traffic here being on the corner of two busier streets. Plenty of space for cooking, lounging, and communing for meals. Our main complaint is that the house wasn’t cleaned very well - crumbs and mildew in the kitchen and bathrooms. The house could use a deep clean.
