This is my 2nd stay at the Big Yellow House. I brought my mom who had never been to Avalon before for a few days during the week. Communication with the owner couldn't have been easier and he let me know that we could check in early on Monday, which was great since the boat arrived around 11AM and official check-in was 1PM, if I recall. I loved how close the home was to everything -- an easy walk to restaurants, shops, sites, beach. The home comes with bikes, kayaks, paddleboards, snorkel equipment -- anything you might want for a beach getaway. The house has 2 baths and 2 showers which are great -- each are on different floors. The only sort of funky thing about the place is its layout. It is basically 2 floors (the ground floor being rented by a Ghost Tours company). The first floor is the small kitchen, a little dining table w/high chairs and bathroom with separate shower; the floor above serves as the living room, bedroom and bath/shower. The kitchen has a sofa-bed in it, and the living room also has a sofa-bed. So, technically you could sleep 6 but you'd be crowded. It was fine for a couple or parents/child but would probably not be ideal for two couples or a group of friends.
