Catalina Island Dream Homes

Great place to stay. Nice bedrooms and bathrooms.

The home was clean and well maintained. It's not a huge home but it was more than ample for 6 adults. Everything worked without exception. The kitchen had everything needed for any type of meal. Vons is just a block away and the board walk just a couple more blocks. The owner Amy is congenial and helpful. For the cost we believe it's the best deal in town.

The property has enough space for the 8 of us. It is very close to Von’s supermarket (few mins walk), excellent location due to close proximity to the beach area. We stayed 2 nights, we were only provided with 1 toilet paper & 1 kitchenpaper towel; I informed the property mgr, Amy, who said she will have a cleaner deliver some but didnt happen (so prepare to buy ur own); theres no body soap too. For the price we paid, I expected enough essentials. The toilet upstairs was clogged, good thing we fixed it with a plunger. Lastly, we were not aware that there was no wifi in the property. Overall, we were happy with the location and kitchen amenities.

I don’t think the property lived up to expectations. We were a party of 6 but there was only a table for 4. We couldn’t eat together. The BBQ was dirty and we had to clean it before we could use it. Communication between owner and us was non existent. We couldn’t open the pantry door and she promised to send someone over however no one came. All said and done I would never rent this property again.

The house is decorated very well and is pleasant to stay in. The location is superb and fun to walk a few blocks to the main drag. It is very clean and well appointed. I do agree with some other people that a new couch would be good! But, everything else is awesome and the owner is super nice.

Communication with the host was incredibly easy. House was also in a great location!

The house was vey cream great communication with owner, property manager very nice made sure we comfortable and if we need anything let him know.

Mica and cozy. Clean but needs to put curtains in the room with double deck.

Nice property but no wifi or netflix capability. Also lacking basics like shampoo and liquid handsoap was so watered down is was just bascially water coming out of the soap dispensers.

The host made sure we were taken care of and any issues/questions that came up were resolved. Great location, about 10 min walk to the coast and shops.

I’m not even sure where to begin. When we arrived the house was so dirty we cleaned and mopped before unpacking. There was blood on a comforter and door frame, empty beer cans in a dresser, and we didn’t take our shoes off the whole stay because of the filth. In addition to that, there weren’t any supplies- no WiFi, no beach towels, no hand soap, not enough coffee cups for the number of people, one wine glass, no opener, the dishes in the cabinet were dirty. I really can’t believe the state the house was in and that we actually paid for that.

Had a wonderful time with my kids on Easter weekend. Walking distance to everything, without having to climb any of the surrounding hills. Condo had all the necessities, and Amy was super accomodating with check in/out times, much appreciated!

Great property, easy to get around. Plenty of room for everyone.

This home is in a great location just a few blocks from the main street in Avalon. The layout is good for a family on two levels. The owner responded quickly to questions and made the check in easy. She also let us check in early and stay late on check out day. Super nice!This experience would be much better if the kitchen, bathroom, and entertainment system had more attention. The kitchen had no sharp knives, not enough coffee mugs for 5 adults, only 2 wine glasses (we bought 4). The bathrooms ran on low toilet paper, had hand soap but no bar soap or shampoo for shower, and 4 towels for 5 people in house that sleeps 8. There is no WIFI (this was cllearly stated in the description) but the DirectTV and TV option had two DVD's and virtually no channels worth watching. We spent most of our time exploring beautiful Catalina but on the rainy day we were looking for options inside.

The house was centrally located in Avalon. Easy access to Vons and front street. The accommodations were very nice. The host responded quickly to my questions. This is a GREAT place to rent for a weekend in Avalon. I highly recommend this rental on VRBO.?

Owner was lovely to work with and we had a very pleasant stay.

The house is quaint & in a super location & we had a great time but we had issues with the following: 1. Glass door blinds in family room are broken & glass doors are very hard to open & close. 2. Sleeper sofa is broken (the part that pulls out) 3. The second single bed in bunk room is a hidden trundle that is very dirty / unusable 4. The upstairs shower faucet doesn’t work properly - hard to shut off 5. No dish soap or amenities in bathrooms 6. Beach chairs are outside & too dirty to use 7. A bit of miscommunication upon check in (never received check in email) but this was resolved. On a positive note the bbq works great & the house has amazing potential.

We really enjoyed our stay at this property. It was really clean, which is very important to us. We have nothing negative to add only good things to say. Thank you for everything. ??

We enjoyed our stay but here are some general observations and opportunities for improving the site: Property needs WiFi Property had no paper towels Property had no soap for showering Unpleasant Smell coming from kitchen sink Some countertops need replacing Stairwell needs paint touch up or cleaning

Had a very nice time here. Good location. Clean and spacious. Thank you!

We enjoyed this house, and it was a great location for us to get down to the beach, rent a motor boat to enjoy the ocean around the city, take a golf cart tour on a route throughout Avalon, and get in and enjoy the cool, clear blue water at the beach. The house was in walkable distance for many fine restaurants and Vons for snacks and necessities, and the weather was perfect for our visit. Amy and Eric were very helpful in communication and providing assistance when needed, and we all enjoyed our time in Avalon!

We had a delightful stay at this charming house, ideally located within a leisurely stroll from the beach and conveniently close to Von’s grocery store—perfect for our culinary adventures during our visit. The kitchen was impressively well-equipped, catering to all our cooking needs, although a refresh of appliances could enhance the experience even further. While the washer could benefit from a bit more attention, it was a minor detail in what was an overall clean and welcoming environment. Our stay was made even more pleasant by the responsive and helpful nature of our host and caretaker, who promptly addressed our inquiries and requests. We truly enjoyed our time here and look forward to future visits!

Perfect stay with an easy check in! Great spot with plenty of room for our family. Loved the little kitchen and grill.
