    Knobs and things were falling off or coming loose.

    Beds and couch were very comfortable. The kitchen appliances worked well. Excellent location

    I really enjoyed the location. Walking distance for everything. Very grateful someone was willing to open up their home for me and my family. Made our first trip to Catalina very welcoming.

    There was construction going on in the house right across from us (I know this can’t be helped and won’t be there forever). If you are a larger person, the bathrooms you won’t be able to fit into. I was 30 weeks pregnant, short and my boyfriend is 6 feet 2 inches but you can’t close the door to one bathroom without hitting your knees to the door, the other bathroom you couldn’t sit on the toilet without your legs being closed, was very narrow. The water pressure was terrible in the showers. It was a great size for my 6 year old. The windows, some of them wouldn’t close all the way and some were broken, so you could hear everything, I recommend bringing a sleep app to drown out the noise from outside especially when going to bed.

    This property was great, super cute. Beds were comfortable, kitchen was great for cooking in. Not a far walk from the beach or to vons. Over all it was nice.

    The cottage really felt like “home” away from home. We loved that we were able to barbecue and all appliances, pots/pans and utensils were available. Location was right in the middle of parks, grocery store and shops. If I had a questions or needed help, staff was quick to answer and help me and were very polite. Very nice and relaxing stay.

    Having to leave! A bit pricey, but that’s just Catalina in general. We honestly have no complaints.

    Everything! This was a fantastic, quaint, clean, and comfortable place to stay on the island. The location was great and easy to walk everywhere (very close to the market). It’s on a quiet street where cars aren’t allowed, so good for kids of all ages. We will definitely return!

    The bathrooms were a little small and there was no fan for ventilation so this would be a nice upgrade! Other than that I was very pleased.

    Cute and cozy, very much felt like being at home! Had all the necessary amenities. The supermarket was also a 3min walk away and all town activities were less than an 8 min walk! Everything was incredibly accessible so didn’t have any need for taxi services or a golf cart. Additionally, a happy surprise upon our arrival, eucalyptus ave (where the cottage is located) is on a private road, so no vehicles we’re able to come through. If you have small kiddos you can rest assured that they can be out playing and enjoying the sun safe from traffic from cars coming up and down the road. :)

    The only thing that was missing was a fan in the first room. The weather wasn't bad, but sometimes, I just needed a bit of air in that room.

    The cottage was cozy and relaxing. One of the things I liked the most was that the street was a private street, which very few cars/golf carts passed through. It was also close to the main grocery store. We bought a few groceries and cooked our own meals. It was walking distance to the beach. Overall, it was an amazing experience.

    We had a great time on the island and were very happy to be close to the center of town.

    The place was not clean enough - it seems to need a deep cleaning. I wiped down the counters and fridge before using and the cloth was dirty. Also, the interior has not been painted in a long time and was dingy. The bar stools were rickety and one was falling apart. The back bedroom was a little disheveled - beds were a bit messy and my daughter would not sleep there because it was gloomy. The exterior needs paint and/or power washing. Some of the slatted windows did not work. For 500.00 a night, even with the location, the place did not feel like a good value.

    I loved the location - very close to downtown on a gated, quiet street with very cozy cottages. I also love the 70's vibe and decor. The bathrooms and kitchen were well stocked and the towels were very fluffy.

    place seems to have a later checking in and earlier checking out of most places

    property was ok only they make house rules to pickup after yourself and then charge you a cleaning fee

    Not the owner's problem but construction was going right across the street while we were there. The construction workers did not start to tell 8 and we were up already but there was not any quiet during the day. The windows are flap windows so the sound of the street was not held back. Thankfully the street in front of us was not an actual street so no cars but you can hear all the foot traffic and conversations.

    I loved the ability to walk everywhere. There was a park right up the street for the kids, the grocery store was right at the bottom of the street and the town was a block and a half away. You can walk everywhere and it is amazing.
