We had a family wedding to attend in Catalina in August so we chose to rent for a week and make it our summer vacation. We had such a great time, and loved the condo, it had all the comforts of home and more. We had several family & friends from out of state that also rented in the same complex, so it felt like our own little community. The balconies were awesome, and the views were absolutely beautiful. Thank you for such a wonderful experience everything went very smooth, and our family wedding was a memory that will last a lifetime.Recommended for: Families with teenagers, adventure seekers, families with young children.

We had a great stay in Catalina. The apartment is in great condition, and had all we needed to stay there for 3 nights (linens, towels, kitchen utensils, etc.). We used the pool and jacuzzi of the complex - and had great fun there. The apartment is located about 2 blocks from the beach and downtown (5 minutes walk).Recommended for: Families with teenagers, age 55+, tourists without a car, girls getaway, romantic getaway, families with young children.

We truly enjoyed our stay in this condominium. It was very homey, comfortable and roomy. Short walking distance to shops, beach, activities and the port. Great view of Avalon on both balconies. It was peaceful and quiet there. Very clean, well furnished and accommodating. Nice get away for us. Great places to eat. We love the Lobster Trap and Antonio's Cabaret. We will definitely go again and stay at this condo!Recommended for: Families with teenagers, age 55+, adventure seekers, tourists without a car, sightseeing, girls getaway, romantic getaway, families with young children.

My husband took me to Catalina for my birthday and we stayed here. The condo is a short walk from the boat dock and all the shops / restaurants, etc. It was a great location - not too close, but just close enough. The views at night our gorgeous! I opened the curtains in the master bedroom at night as we fell asleep so I could look at the lights. The owner / agent was super easy to deal with and nice. The condo was clean and nicely furnished. The pool / jacuzzi area is really nice too. I would definitely stay here again!Recommended for: Tourists without a car, sightseeing, girls getaway, romantic getaway.

Our family of five stayed at these condos, great place to stay! Tom was so good to work with us on our arrival and departure times, we really appreciated it! Very nice, clean condo, with a fabulous view. We loved the master suite, so roomy and spacious. The condo as a whole was wonderful and we would stay here again, highly recommend it. Was within walking distance to downtown stores, beach and shops. Our family really enjoyed the hot tub, wish the pool would've been a little warmer, but overall a great trip, we loved Catalina Island.Recommended for: Families with teenagers, age 55+, tourists without a car, sightseeing, girls getaway, romantic getaway, families with young children.
