Pleasant unit a short drive from town. Very clean and comfortable, everything you need is there. Good to have the golf cart! Sad the pool was not open, it was a hot weekend.
We did not spend much time in the house, but it was overall a comfortable and convenient rental. It is dated, and the golf cart sounded like it was dying but it did not make the visit any less Pleasant. The rental is on a hill, having the golf cart was helpful as we were traveling with our âmatureâ mother.
We had a fantastic time here! We were here for my daughterâs wedding! The condo was nice -a great location! It was very hot weekend- it would have been perfect to have some AC- which wasnât included. But we made do with some fans. All in all it was really amazing. We were not at the condo very much- just to sleep.
If you are looking for a property meeting the bare minimum requirements to rent, you've found it. Some folks have complained about it being filthy. That wasn't our experience. But, the only carpeting in this unit (everything else is tile) is on the staircases. And they look awful. Especially when they are what greets you upon opening the front door. The carpet needs to be deeply cleaned or replaced. The dishwasher has a poor rinse cycle and broken dry cycle, so we found ourselves hand-washing all dishes that came from the cabinets. Because of the broken dry cycle, the dishwasher and kitchen stink of stale water. The kitchen lacked many basic elements, including steak knives, an adequate knife set, a baking sheet, hot pads for removing hot things from the oven, and other things. We grilled steaks and had to pre-cut them with the one dull knife in the drawer prior to serving. The furniture in the living room is extremely uncomfortable...an old futon and chair with thinning pads. The beds are old and very uncomfortable, especially the two twin beds. Hard as rocks. We found out after 5:00pm that the place was stocked with two wash clothes for five of us. Staff replaced them at noon the next day. The unit is also right on Wrigley Rd. Golf cart and car noise were at all hours. Postives? While old, the golf cart was nice to have. We would not choose to stay here again though in its current state, especially for the high price.

We had a wonderful time staying at the house. It was walkable distance from the store and beach. We didnât have to use the cart at all. Very responsive property management. Thank you for hosting us!
I know there are a lot of people talking about how it was not clean but it was not the case for me. So I should really thank those people who brought it to the management's attention. Great stay! The layout was perfect for my friends and family - even my 93 year old grandma. Enough bathrooms (2.5) to not feel like we were fighting for one. The location in a much shorter walk than expected but it's not for those who are uncomfortable to do a walk with a slight incline there. So the golf cart came in handy when some of us walk and cart others around. The only issue is the golf cart was quite gimmicky and stopped working our last day (not sure if it was the cold or just it being old).
Location was great, easy to get everywhere from here. We had a small issue with the golf cart and management took care of it right away. Hot tub was not hot, and furniture was very dated, but overall it was a great stay
The property is tired. The chairs wete stained, there were cob webs everywhere, of the 3 hair dryers in the property only one worked, the golf cart was rough.dirty and overall did not match the pictures. Downstairs the queen bedroom had only one workionly
Really comfortable, good water pressure in the showers, and the golf cart made it very convenient to move people and luggage around Avalon. Highly recommend đ
having our own golf cart was a huge plus. the location is was nice for us, as it was further out of the town center and relatively quiet. The carpets and fabric furniture were heavily stained and musty. Also we couldn't figure out the tv. Other than that, we had a great time and enjoyed our stay
This condo is great. It comes with a golf cart, which is essential due to the condoâs proximity to the beach. It has a ton of space. It does need some upgrades and isnât squeaky clean but after staying at a few other places in Avalon this is line with other properties. Weâll definitely book again.
We loved the location, the spaciousness and access to the golf cart! Communication with management was EXCEPTIONAL. The kitchen was stocked with everything we needed to cook several full meals. We didn't use the pool area but it was nice to know it was there. We loved that there were games and puzzles and 2 outdoor areas. We would definitely stay again but there are definitely some things that could use improvement. The condo itself is nice but dated. The mattresses in the lower bedrooms are OLD and very uncomfortable. The dining table only has 5 chairs...which is a shame considering we had a party of 6. We ended up using an ottoman for the 6th seat. The stovetop had a couple burners that did not work. There were cobwebs in the upstairs bathroom and on the lamp in the living room. Overall, it is a great place to stay but for the price, I just think there should be some updates for comfort, etc.
Great place with lots of room. It was very convenient to have the golf cart. Pool and jacuzzi was a bonus. Our group is technically challenged and couldnât navigate the TV but the management came very quickly to help. Iâd stay here again in a heartbeat.
Stayed here over labor day weekend (100 degrees) and surprised to find the owner disabled the AC for bookings. I'm assuming this is to save $$$ even though the unit was thousands for the weekend. This is definitely something the management company should inform people of. Aside from being misled, the fans they indicated were in the closet were caked with dirt and dust. Other parts of the unit were neglected as well. They were kind enough to refund a portion for the unit not being clean and also the fact we couldn't get comfortable during our stay. Would have never booked if I had known. The owner was also kind enough to not have laundry detergent in the laundry room. Another cost saving measure I'm sure.......cheap!
We had a great time, we liked the location it got us away from the hustle and bustle. Glad it had a golf cart for us to use we definitely needed it we had my 83 yr old mom with us
The folks at Catalina Island Vacation Rentals were very friendly, receptive, and quick to respond to questions. The space was a little off the beaten path but had loads of space for all our scuba gear for a long weekend of diving for four of us - we never felt cramped. Having access to the golf cart was much appreciated for shuttling gear and getting around. Would highly recommend.
