Staying at Frans place was nice, it was everything that you need in a place for Catalina. Good location, its only about an 8 minute walk to the pier. We had a bit of trouble with communication with the host. We arrived to the island and were told that we could go to the house but when we got there, there was a lockbox and we werent given the code. I called about 10 times with no response and texted multiple times as well. We just sat outside. About 30-45+ minutes later we were given the code finally. Anyways, past that the place was nice and did the job. Water could have been refiled though. You spend most of your time outdoors in Catalina so I would recommend this place for the value of it.
