This house is close to the dock and beach. The views from the large living room are awesome. There are a lot of stairs to get to the property. This allows for the elevation to get the views. Enjoy!

Fantastic location overlooking Avalon in Catalina
We had a group of 10 including our immediate family and significant others, all adults, and stayed 3 nights. The property was in a great location overlooking the harbor. Walkable to everything.There are stairs to the property but we did not feel this was a problem. I had read that the deck was down the steps and shared, which is true, but the family room has windows all around which we opened and we felt like we were on a deck while inside, so we never used the actual deck.There are tenants in the lower level but we never saw nor heard from them.Everything was included such as spices, coffee filters, dish detergent, condiments, toiletries and paper products. There was a washer and dryer but we did not use it, you would need to bring your own soap. Gas grill out back was great. All towels and bedding provided as well as beach towels.The grocery store was very close and I was glad we did not try to bring groceries from the mainland. Prices were a little higher but the lack of hassle was great.I would strongly recommend you give this property a look for your future family gathering. We would definitely stay here again.

Beautiful view, but…
3.5 stars…
This home is very conveniently located and has a spectacular view of Avalon. It’s great for groups with five bedrooms and three baths - three families stayed together. Lots of stairs, but manageable.
However, the house was not very clean or well maintained. There are holes in the walls from woodpeckers. There was a serious ant problem in many areas of the house - kitchen and baths. The house wasn’t stocked with hand soap or paper towels. The roof needed to be replaced years ago and many “improvements” were done quite haphazardly. It is an old home, which also gives it some unique character.
Hopefully these are helpful things to know before you book!

Good for our family
Our family of 6 adults and 3 children ages 6,7,10 had a wonderful time! The house is old and could use some TLC but overall we had a wonderful 4 night stay. The location and view are undeniably amazing!! As most homes on the ocean there are some issues but none that really effected our stay.
If your looking for a modern home with lots of amenities this is not your place! But if you want a place in Avalon that will provide a real beach experience this is worth a look!

Disastrous house with a beautiful view
There were way too many negatives to make up for the beautiful view this house has.
First negative was the walk to the house, it is quite a hike. Although advertised as not good for toddlers, it’s not good for elderly or luggage. The “balcony” is not a private balcony, it’s 2 floors below the unit in front of the other tenants windows. Cigarette butts everywhere.
The interior of the house was filthy. So much so, we reached out to the manager to have cleaners come out. They did, but literally only cleaned the things we complained about, namely, vacuumed the rug with cleaning the floors on either side of it. We tried cleaning it ourselves, but the vacuum, like most things was broken.
The BBQ was unusable; filthy with what looked like years of caked on food and grease and animal droppings.
The wifi/tv was also next to non-existent. Given the excuse “it’s an island”, that would be fine if it was advertised as having internet.
The windows are old (as advertised), but 50% are broken so you can’t latch the, sending them swinging with the breezes.
Lastly, the floors seem to have been patched a lot, and there are parts where you can stub a toe or cut yourself, especially near the top landings of both interior staircases.
To end on a positive note, the owner was responsive, and the view was amazing. Proximity to town was great. We all felt like we deserved to be paid the cleaning fee as we found ourselves cleaning for quite a while. Renter be aware of what you are willing to pay for a view, we felt like it was exceptionally over priced for what we stayed in.

Beware
The pictures are misleading. The balcony with the table is down three flights of stairs. There are 5 flights of stairs to unit.. Though it says not suitable for toddlers, they are challenging for adults with luggage as well. The unit itself is very poorly maintained, the toilets wiggle, the window cranks are broken and the kitchen is very old with ancient appliances and cracked counter tops . The cleaner did a poor job. There were dirty dishes in the dishwasher when we arrived and the windows are filthy. The WFI is almost non existent , but that may be because it is an island. On the up side there is plenty of room and the view is spectacular. If you are willing to spend 900.00 a night for this place I would suggest spending a little more for another nicer spot.

What a great house!!
This was our family's first trip to Avalon, and we loved it. A critical part of our wonderful experience was staying at this house. SO highly recommended! The house is incredibly charming (built in 1924, with many original features) home looking over the harbor and the iconic Avalon casino. It is very spacious and comfortable. We were 9 adults, and had plenty of room to be together while also having privacy in the bedrooms. The kitchen and dining room and living room flow together very easily. The views are AMAZING.
Location: The house could not have a better location, right above the harbor yet very private, and only 1/2 mile from the Avalon Casino. In between is the very special town that is Avalon, with shops and restaurants, ice cream and bakeries, and a feeling of stepping back in time to a gentler place. Everything is easy walking distance from the house.
The House: The view from three sides of the house is spectacular, day and night. It was wonderful to wake up and watch the harbor come alive sitting in the living room with a cup of coffee and to enjoy the twinkling lights in Avalon in the evening. The kitchen is fully stocked, clean, and everything works well. The five bedrooms are all VERY comfortable. The three bathrooms had no issues with our large group, and the owner thoughtfully included soaps and extra toilet paper.
The stairs: This is really not an issue. I was worried before booking, given past reviews and that my husband and I are nearing 60. Do not worry about these stairs, they are not challenging at all.
Finally, the cost per night may seem daunting (it was to me), but it is actually a bargain. I did a lot of research into the options for hotels and B&Bs for our family trip. This house was economical in comparison, sight unseen. Now that we have been there, I can only say this: Lucky you if you have the opportunity to rent this house, as the experience is priceless.

Aries Birthday Getaway
A group of 9 friends and I stayed at this beautiful house for our joint birthday weekend getaway and had an amazing trip to remember. The house was just as the pictures displayed. YES-the 60 stairs to the property are more than accurate and a good reason to skip the gym post trip BUT the view was breathtaking and an absolute joy to wake up to daily. We had more than enough room for the 10 of us-the bedrooms weren't huge but were cozy. Took a while to find the master bathroom because it was hiding behind the bedroom door but it was a relief to have a 3rd with our sized group. Make sure you space out showers cause the older plumbing will drain the hot water fast.
The house was a short 5 minute walk to/from the ferry and only a few blocks from the bars, restaurants and club. The Galleon & Chi CHi club are about it for nightlife pre-season but we had a blast regardless. We pre-apologized to the permanent residents below for the pending noise of our late night celebrating but did try to keep it down once it really got late. They were understanding and said they'd get used to it.
The restaurants recommended by the owner; Pancake Cottage for breakfast and Bluewater Grill were a delicious hit. Thanks Linda!
So prepare for a great butt and thigh workout but an incredible stay on this beautiful island house. We did!

Wonderful Family Retreat
This past summer was our third year in a row staying in this wonderful huge home-away-from home right in the heart of Avalon. Just like the previous years, our family thoroughly enjoyed it! The house has great views; it is roomy, clean, nicely furnished, and just a short walk to anything and everything you might wish to do or see while in Avalon. We will be staying in this house many more times. Linda is always responsive and willing to accommodate!

Amazing views, horrible experience
Worked with Linda, booked and fully paid for a two day dream Catalina vacation. Ended up leaving a day early for fear of fire hazard. Arrived in the morning to the mess left by the previous guests, which was not cleaned up till around 5pm. Spent a few hours of our first night helping Linda and her husband trouble shoot electrical system and fuses in the house with no success. No TV or entertainment for the kids. Tried using the showers which leaked into the bottom floor. Plumbers came and told us shower has leak and shower floor not sealed properly. Concerned we looked around the house and found not a single working smoke detector in the house. Many were painted over, one left open with no batteries inside. So we called Linda and told her that we are leaving early due to fear of electrical fire hazard with no protection. Linda offered refund, which never materialized.
The views from the house are amazing, but the service and quality simply does not match expectations. Playing the role of handy-man and waiting around for house keepers, plumbers and electricians to show up are simply not high on the list of activities we had planned for our dream vacation.

What a perfect place for a large group or family
We had such a wonderful time at this house. It is the perfect distance from downtown (it takes less than 5 minutes to walk) and the views are incredible. The house was very clean and there were a perfect amount of sleeping places. The stairs weren't bad at all. There was a music player and TV which was very nice and plenty of beach/bathroom towels. We will definitely stay here again. Loved it! My only complaint, we showed up and there was only 1 roll of toilet paper, but we got some at the store no problem.

Unbelievable place and great value
I have stayed in a number of homes and hotels on the island and this is by far the place I have ever stayed on the island. The place was clean and well furnished. It looked to me everything was new. It also had a 16 person table for our BBQ dinner. The place was fully stocked and well appointed. The view was just stunning. I found the owner, Linda D. to be very nice and accommodating. I would recommend this bay view home to anyone who wants’ the ultimate in vacation experience

What a fabulous place to spend Spring Break with the family!! The location is perfect, the best views! The rental property was more than what we expected, very clean, and up to date, it had every thing we needed as if we were at home, I loved that! The owner was more than helpful, very friendly and shared with us all the spots to go to so we didn't miss out! The area was quiet, truly a peaceful and enjoyable vacation rental. After comparing other options I am so glad we stayed here! We have already checked for future available dates to come back!

Not Exactly What We Expected
We just returned and I feel compelled to leave a review (first time I have done this) because there were many things I wish I had known about in advance. My group included 4 adults and 7 young children. We anticipated the 50 steps but it was actually 65 to the lobby area and then another 15 into the house. The house itself is shared with at least 2 or 3 tenants below. I'm sure they could hear us because we could hear them partying until 2-3a.m. two of our nights there. They were loud and using profanity, so we had to move our children to the upstairs/attic area so they could sleep. The house was clean enough, except none of the bed comforters had been changed or washed or any of the bath mats. We couldn't find our towels and then located them in the dryer. We used the washer/dryer but since it was shared with so many people after waiting all day, I finally folded someone else's clothes so we could have use. The house itself is delightful, if you like the originality of a 1920s home....original floors and windows are lovely (albeit a bit dangerous for the little kids). The furniture was fine enough, there were plenty of games, toiletries, etc....only a handful of movies. My biggest complaint is that the railing was dangerously loose (no way up to code) and I would have liked to know that the stairs leading to the attic were as steep as they were because our 2-yr old could not manage on her own safely and our 4-yr old slid up and down on his behind. The mattresses were ridiculously old. We could hear squeaking from the neighboring bed when our friends got in and out. Also, there was a big hole (covered by cardboard) in the ceiling of one bedroom and the lighting in the master bath was so poor it was unusable beyond brushing your teeth. Lastly, there is a open air window in the top of the beamed ceiling which let in all the cold air (and it was 50-60 during our stay). We had all the heaters and oven going and it could still not be kept warm enough. The kids were bunked out with all the bed comforters trying to stay warm. Yes, the view is magnificent, truly gorgeous. But I wouldn't stay here again based on the number of steps, uncomfortable mattresses, dangerous hand rails and loud parties beneath us.
