Lovely, cozy place to stay

Our family of 5 had a lovely time in Avalon. The property was quaint and perfectly sized so we could spread out a little. It was the right distance from the grocery store & it helped save some money by being able to eat breakfast “at home”. It wasn’t too far away from all of the fun things to do & see.

For the price it was very small.

It was nice because we were close to everything. But we think it was overpriced for how small it is.

Cottage needs a little updating, the bathroom was very tight and no locks on the doors. Other than that it was in an ideal location right behind the market and in walking distance to all the fun!

Catalina Trip

The location was neat and Catalina was hands down amazing! The property we rented wasn’t up to par as far as cleanliness. We found hair on one of the toilet seats and some on the bathroom floors. It took 2 days for the owner to respond regarding an early check in. She was kind and let us put our things inside the gate until our check in time. The air conditioner started leaking right after we turned it on right when we arrived. Water got on the floor- we cleaned it up and notified the owner right away. We weren’t able to use the A/C the entire stay. Luckily it wasn’t too hot. There were perishables left behind in the fridge. The back bedroom with the two beds had like a room closed off with a curtain. (Weird) It had some old furniture in there like a storage. Doesn’t seem like the property was kept up continuously, it wasn’t very clean.

Good location, could use updates

The house was able to accommodate us all fairly well. The location was about a mile walk to Descanso beach club, which wasn’t too bad considering the views on the walk. With that being said, the house could use some updates (shower, paint, curtain rods, etc.). Also, some cookware in the kitchen needs to be updated (mainly pots and pans). The outside of the house could also use some maintenance (cleaning out the shed, removing cob webs, etc.). Overall, my family enjoyed our stay on Catalina island.

Very dated and not functional

In previous reviews we knew the property was stated but we expected it to be functional. The shower in one of the bathrooms did not work.Curtain rods would fall off the walls windows don't open and close properly or all the way front door lock

the whole place is like a run down double wide trailer. in one bedroom there was a half curtain "hiding" a destroyed bathroom, tinfoil wrapped around shower handle to prevent leaking, plywood construction. Can't shut the bathroom doors while your sitting on the toilet. It's just very clear the owner puts zero money into upkeep of the property. For the same money you can do much better at one of the hotels

Lack of communication!

I tried to contact Bond my assigned person to contact with any questions. I called and sent a e-mail days before my arrival with no response! Arrived at house and found a shower they was inoperable and easily visible by cleaning crew with handle broken off and left on shelf. Called plumber contact on Bulletin Board and there was no voice mail. All contact information was old from 2014! I have been renting in Catalina for 40 years and this is my worst experience.

Management unwilling to help

There are exceptions to every rule. We had a death in the family and my daughter was not able to emotionally and physically make the trip. We did not ask for a refund- we just needed to reschedule. “Evolve” was unwilling to help due to timing. I will never recommend this company. They should be ashamed. Money is definitely more important to them than people.

Racing Catalina

We came for a Half Marathon Race. House has a great location. It was clean and cozy for our group. Windows need to be the next upgrade for the property. But for the good price, it was just right for our stay.

Cute Cottage

Good location, cute cottage but it could use a little TLC ( a few broken or dirty items and a messy closet/storage area in one of the rooms). Check-out said by 10 a.m. and at 9:40 a.m. the cleaning people were hovering outside of the front door. Overall though we did enjoy are time there and it was the perfect size for our group of 4 people.
