Amazing placeâthe most well stocked of any rental Iâve stayed atâtheyâve thought of everything you might need! Very clean, great location, would be very happy to stay here again!
This property is ideal in all aspects. The walk up the hill is a bit much for older people or those out of shape, but thereâs an app for transportation around Avalon in a golf cart or cab. The place is great for an island getaway for writers.
This place will host 3 couples very cozily. Full Kitchen with a gas grill on the patio! Host was able to accommodate us an extra night when we were stuck on the island due to bad weather. Only Downside was this property is located a trek up a hill. Usually I donât mind walking but I just ran 50 miles lol
Family of 4 stayed for 4 nights in late December and this worked out pretty good for us. Place was clean and bright, and having the two beds for the kids in their own room, and two bathrooms was pretty nice. At least in December it was very quiet here, nice and peaceful.Read the reveiws on the walk up the hill and this was a non issue for us and should be a non issue for anyone who isn't a couch potato. Even with our 50lb wheelie we brought over my 13yr old was able to bring it up the hill.Nice and walkable to everything and we were glad we didn't stay in some of the places we were looking at in the flats, especially on Sumner which were busy with noisy golf carts all the time. Very queit up on this hill and not all the carts or crowds.
I have stayed at many rentals in many towns and this by far has been the very best! First and foremost.. it was neat and clean, my most important detail. Second.. it was decorated so beautifully and made us all feel right at home. Third.. it had absolutely every single thing you might want, think of or imagine you might need. From unique wood puzzles to lint rollers to coffee, bottles of water and complimentary snacks. Beach toys, bandaids and a 12x mirror to put on make-up! More outlets and usb ports than you could ever need and did I mention how cute and comfy? We were all pleased as punch after our weekend and talked on the boat about our next time we can rent 217 Whitley!
Very well kept older property. Easily accommodated 6 adults. Close to walk to everything! The beds and pillows were very comfortable with plenty of extra blankets for cool evenings. It is a steep hill climb of about 2 blocks to get there, that is not disclosed in the description. Take that into consideration when booking based on who is in your party. There was also only 1 extra toilet paper roll for a 4 night stay with 6 women. When we inquired about extra we were told to go buy some. I did not find that very accommodating.
Gravel Biking Catalina Island-lots of beautiful views and lots of climbing.
This worked quite well for us. It is an older property, well kept up and in a quieter section of Avalon. We had bike travel boxes and there was enough floor space to store and a secure balcony for the bikes. Contrary to other reviews, the towels were fine, the water pressure excellent with plenty of hot water. We did have a two block climb with the bike boxes but a young local surfer carried mine up when he saw that I was struggling!
Worked for us. Thanks for fans. Dishes were fine as well as sheets. Towels were just OK and showers were a trickle. Tough getting a stroller in and out. Had asked for a pack&play and told I would have to rent. Found 2 in the closet. Location was great except for the hill.
This unit was basically used only for sleeping and eating our breakfast as the rest of my family was in a house where we all hung out.
There are two issues that should be fixed. One is the front door of the unit; it is very difficult and frustrating to open the door. One of the cabinet drawers would not close, but I assume that has already been fixed.
Great little condo. Clean, good location close to everything!
Host was very helpful. We were stranded on Catalina (not a bad place to get stranded, by the way) and our host helped us out and made sure we had no stress and a place to stay last minute.
Would stay here again for sure.
The property was okay, but needs a LOT of updating like the carpets and bathrooms. Didnât realize there was no air conditioning and the upstairs got really HOT - had to keep both the front and patio doors open to circulate air. There were fans but it was still uncomfortable. The second bedroom with the bunk bed and double bed faced the sun in the morning and would get really bright and warm early in the day. Found dead bugs in the pots/pansy and knives need replacement. Basically, felt like we had to clean everything before use. The keys to the property kept getting stuck and stuff to the point where it almost broke off. The way to the property is not recommended for elderly folks with the steeper hill and the steps from front gate to front door. The best part of the stay was the proximity to downtown and the very helpful neighbor upstairs , Anita.
