  This cottage is perfectly located a few blocks up from the beach, shops and restaurants. A brief walk into town, but far enough away from the noise and hustle and bustle. It is a quaint cottage, and the photographs accurately depict the cottage and what it has to offer. The cottage is clean and well-maintained. We loved our stay in Catalina and this cottage contributed a lot to our overall positive experience. We want to rent it again and will recommend this property to anyone we know who is planning a trip to Catalina.

  The inside pictures of this cottage are accurate. There are no longer any plants outside in front of the cottage, but there are blinds on the windows. We had a very pleasant stay and were able to bring our small dog. There are not a lot of rentals in Avalon that allow pets. This was also probably the best rate in Avalon (VRBO and CIVR). It was comfortable and clean. The only negative was no internet. Internet access inside rentals on Catalina is not standard. Internet is available at some local coffee shops, but dogs are not allowed at most eating establishments, even outdoors.

  We stayed there for two days, this was my fourth time staying here. The location is great, the house is cute, typical cottage by the beach. We did have ONE problem when we arrived, and that was getting the previous people which had stayed there to leave!! or rather come and get their items out of the house....But it was no fault of the owner, and she tried to be helpful in fixing the problem, The place is comfortable and in the perfect location, I love this place wich is why we keep coming back.

  Perfect location for walking to the beach, restaurants, grocery, and shops. The house had more than enough room for the 4 of us with 2 queen beds and bunk beds. The house was clean and neat with fresh linens and towels. The neighbors were quiet but friendly. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and will be back.

  The house was great for a last minute getaway! Close to everything, on a quiet street, clean, and comfortable. We are definitely planning to return later this year.

  I have to admit I was kinda scared to stay here after reading the previous reviews, but it turned out to be a nice surprise. It was a close walk to all activities. A little Von's Express was just down the street, great for buying bottled waters and stuff. Everything was very clean... Fresh sheets, plenty of clean towels. The beds were very comfortable. I suppose it would be a pain if you were going to do lots of cooking, because there is no dishwasher and the stove is smallish, but who likes to cook on vacation right? There is also a bunk bed set in a very small room, but this came in handy for my kids who prefer to have their own beds. I didn't see any stains on the furniture, and the couch and love seat were comfy. All in all it was a great stay, and I would definitely recommend this house to anyone.

  The house is great, it has everything you need to enjoy your stay in Avalon. If you are looking for 5 star luxury and big tv's and modern appliances to cook your own meals this is not the place for you, but if you want a cozy base to explore the island this house is great! It's not at all dirty or filthy as previous reviewers said. The linens and towels were clean and everything worked perfectly well. The location is really good and Debora was very accommodating and a pleasure to deal with. Unfortunately it rained almost our entire stay, so we will definitely go back and stay here again!

  I did not realize anyone would rent a "home" that was so nasty. It had dirty floors, carpets were filthy, couch coverings were filthy, bedding had stains all over, bathrooms fixtures leaked non stop, gaps in doors, windows would not close all the way, nor lock, cat hair everywhere. Dishes were dirty, I would not recomend this place to anyone. It was just plain discusting!! I would give this zero stars, but VRBO does not give you that option. This is absolutely that worst rental I have EVER seen.

  Owner response: I stayed at the house one week before and neither I nor my guest were aware of any cat hair.

  You enter in the front door that has a 1-inch gap on the bottom to a very small room that had two filthy dirty couches. They have slipcovers with stains all over them. I did not want to sit on them for fear of bugs crawling on me. There are extension cords everywhere. The blinds are covered with dirt and are a good foot short of covering the windows. The cords are broken and tied in knots. The only way to get light in the kitchen is to plug in a cord to lights that are nailed to the ceiling; there are NO light switches. The kitchen stove was an old trailer edition from the 1960's. I was afraid to use it. The whole place was a fire trap. I did check the smoke detectors to make sure they were working just in case there was a fire. I had to go to the store to buy dish washing soap as there was non there, before I could use any of the glasses as I found lip prints on several that were in the cupboard. The bedding had nasty, gross, with stains everywhere, who knows what they were from. I had to keep my shoes on at all times as the carpet was filthy. NOT JUST DIRTY BUT FILTHY. The bathrooms (1 and 1/2) were disgusting. You could sit on the toilet, brush your teeth and wash your feet all at the same time. The bathroom with the shower was about 4 ft. by 4 ft. with a faucet that leaked non-stop. The 1/2 bath had the worst smell you have ever smelled The electrical as stated by the owner was replaced, what a joke. Not sure it could have been any worse. There are overloaded extension cords everywhere. The owner should be embarrassed to rent this unit. There is NO pride of ownership, NONE, and it shows. I had some friends stop by to say hello and they could not believe I was staying there... In fact I rented this unit for 7 nights and left after the 3rd night and it was paid in full. RENTERS BEWARE OF THIS ONE

  Owner response: 1. The electrical wiring was inspected by the City of Avalon electrical inspector and approved. 2. There are no extension cords. 3. Smoke detectors are in every room and all work. 4. Dish soap is not provided. 5. The comforters on the beds have been washed. 6, The carpet was shampooed one week before this guest arrived. 7. The kitchen has a ceiling fan/light in the center of the room. 8. The kitchen stove was purchased in 1997 not 1960 and was recently inspected by a technician and works fine. 9. The blinds cover the windows. 10. The "slipcovers" have been washed. 11. A new couch and loveseat have been ordered and will arrive soon. 12. I have not seen any bugs in the house. 13. New bathroom faucets are being installed as soon as the plumber can fit it into his schedule.
