Best location ever

Quiet street at night but close enough to all the action during the day to pop in and out between activities. Cleanest vacation rental I’ve ever stayed in. Highest possible recommendation.

Perfect weekend gateway

We had a fantastic stay at this property! The house had everything we needed for a girls' getaway. It was very spacious and conveniently close to stores and restaurants. The host was incredibly attentive and communicative throughout our stay. We will definitely be back soon. Thank you again for sharing your wonderful place with us!

Great place and great service!

This was a great experience…the property was clean and well prepared and the owner communicated well throughout the process. I’ve stayed at a lot of Catalina places over the years…many do not take pride in their property…that is not the case here. I’d recommend it.

Great stay for our family!

This lovely home in a nice neighborhood came with lots of little extra touches; all the basics and more stocked in the kitchen, USB & USBC cables and USB ports in some outlets, non-slip shower mats, beach chairs and inflatable floats which we were encouraged to use, and A/C, which is rare in Catalina cottages. The cottage was clean, bright and airy, with two very comfortable seating areas. This is obviously someone's cherished home and we're glad they allowed us to stay. We'll definitely look here first for future stays.
