Walk to Beach: Condo w/ Patio on Catalina Island

Stayed here for my birthday this past weekend and had THE BEST time! The condo is so lovely, clean, and right in downtown so everything is within walking distance. The front patio has a beautiful view and is great to relax at in the morning & evening. Thank you to Veronica for allowing an early check in as well!!

Perfect for our family getaway. The house was clean, comfortable, and had ample space. The proximity to the beach and restaurants was ideal. We had a great time and would definitely consider staying here again.

Stayed 2 nights with 7 adults and 1 child in July.Things We Loved: -Location (close walk to city center & water) -Ice/water dispenser on fridge -Pretty views-Mostly quiet area -Spacious for our group -Beautiful back patio with tables/chairs Could've Been Better: -Bathroom/bedroom windows have full visibility from the outside at night time if blinds are open -Sheer window coverings throughout house... very bright light on the back porch that wouldn't turn off and kept the living room area fully illuminated all night (this is where we slept) -Foldout couches were not the most comfortable Irredeemable Issue:(!) We were greeted with a horrendous odor the first night (dead animal level smell). Reported to our Guest Contact who put deodorizers/sprays in the house the following day, but the smell persisted and was honestly hard to sleep/breathe through. Reported this issue after our stay, and the owner offered a roughly 30% refund which we found to be reasonable enough. Unfortunately, even if we had booked the house at 30% less to begin with, the smell still would've been a terrible issue, and this is why we could never recommend this property or choose to return.

We had a great time in this unit and wished we had stayed longer. Plenty of space for our small family and lots of amenities and good location. Place was very clean. The description is correct about hearing the folks upstairs, you hear every footstep. Fortunately our upstairs neighbors were pretty quiet. One thing not mentioned is the labradorite countertops used throughout. This is a really special stone with opal-like optical properties and it was one of my favorite things about the unit. Nice grill on the deck and great place for a meal.

Great patio and outdoor space. There is a mild smell that was strange in the property but you go nose blind to it pretty quickly so not a big deal. Tanning on the patio and grilling at night was awesome!

This is a beautiful location that is right across the street from the beach. It is comfortable and had everything we needed.

My wife and our four teenage children stayed 3 nights at this property. It is the lower unit of a two story home. The downside is you can hear nearly all the movements guests in the upstairs unit make - moving chairs, flushing toilets, etc. There were some things missing when we arrived but the host was quick to respond to our needs and feedback. While we would not stay at this specific property again, I would be happy to stay at another property owned by this host.

The contact person was wonderful, I arrived in the morning and while check-in is officially 3:00pm, they were able to get me in by noon. The place was clean and had everything you could need (including an extensive movie library in case of rain) very close to town on a short dead-end street. No excessive noise in the neighborhood. Not really any view from the lower unit but that is OK, Everyplace you go in Avalon and on the island has great views! Minor noise from the upstairs unit (occasional footsteps or a chair being moved.) Nothing that you would even notice if you were talking to people in your unit or if you had the TV on...

Great stay. House met all of our needs and the deck was awesome. Very centrally located for us as we did scuba diving all day every day and was just a short walk. Place was clean and nice. will def be coming back.

I was pleasantly surprised with how stocked this place was! Full kitchenware, plates, bowls, utensils, cleaning supplies, extra towels, plenty of toilet paper, I mean you name it! This place was great!! And a literal 4 min walk from the water. Next time I come back I’ll be looking for this place to book again!

The stay was very enjoyable and the communication with the property management was on point. Besides a small maintenance issues with a bathroom light, the house was very cozy and all of our guest enjoyed the stay. Would most likely book this property again in the future.
