We had a very good experience staying here. The kitchen and bathrooms were well supplied. Plenty of towels including accessories like hair drier, soap in the shower… Snacks in the kitchen, a Keurig and a coffee pot. There are beach chairs and accessories for going to the beach. It feels like they tried to think of everything. The king size bed was nice. Firm, if you love firm. I personally like a softer bed but it was good enough. It was clean and comfortable. We enjoyed laying on the couch watching movies and having popcorn which was supplied in the kitchen. The property is a short walk up a hill. We were fine with the walk but if hills or stairs are a challenge just be aware.

We have stayed in dozens of VRBOs around the world and this is the best equipped rental we have ever had! The unit is super cute and has literally everything you could think of for a comfortable stay, including kitchen supplies, extra blankets, games, toys and beach gear. It is decorated beautifully and looks better than the photos! Everything was spotless and written instructions guide you for using everything in the unit. We really enjoyed our stay and would stay longer next time! Note that the unit is located a couple of blocks uphill from the main street, which we easily walked, but could be an issue for someone with mobility problems.

Worked out for our family of 4

Family of 4 stayed for 4 nights in late December and this worked out pretty good for us. Place was clean and bright, and having the two beds for the kids in their own room, and two bathrooms was pretty nice. At least in December it was very quiet here, nice and peaceful.Read the reveiws on the walk up the hill and this was a non issue for us and should be a non issue for anyone who isn't a couch potato. Even with our 50lb wheelie we brought over my 13yr old was able to bring it up the hill.Nice and walkable to everything and we were glad we didn't stay in some of the places we were looking at in the flats, especially on Sumner which were busy with noisy golf carts all the time. Very queit up on this hill and not all the carts or crowds.

This property is ideal in all aspects. The walk up the hill is a bit much for older people or those out of shape, but there’s an app for transportation around Avalon in a golf cart or cab. The place is great for an island getaway for writers.

Don’t miss this rental!

I have stayed at many rentals in many towns and this by far has been the very best! First and foremost.. it was neat and clean, my most important detail. Second.. it was decorated so beautifully and made us all feel right at home. Third.. it had absolutely every single thing you might want, think of or imagine you might need. From unique wood puzzles to lint rollers to coffee, bottles of water and complimentary snacks. Beach toys, bandaids and a 12x mirror to put on make-up! More outlets and usb ports than you could ever need and did I mention how cute and comfy? We were all pleased as punch after our weekend and talked on the boat about our next time we can rent 217 Whitley!

Beautiful property!

Very well kept older property. Easily accommodated 6 adults. Close to walk to everything! The beds and pillows were very comfortable with plenty of extra blankets for cool evenings. It is a steep hill climb of about 2 blocks to get there, that is not disclosed in the description. Take that into consideration when booking based on who is in your party. There was also only 1 extra toilet paper roll for a 4 night stay with 6 women. When we inquired about extra we were told to go buy some. I did not find that very accommodating.

Gravel Biking Catalina Island-lots of beautiful views and lots of climbing.

This worked quite well for us. It is an older property, well kept up and in a quieter section of Avalon. We had bike travel boxes and there was enough floor space to store and a secure balcony for the bikes. Contrary to other reviews, the towels were fine, the water pressure excellent with plenty of hot water. We did have a two block climb with the bike boxes but a young local surfer carried mine up when he saw that I was struggling!
