THAT VIEW!! It’s incredible. That is what you’re paying for here. The panoramic views of the ocean from the condo building isn’t really something you can get from a hotel closer in town. And being able to use Helmut’s golf cart during our stay was VERY helpful in us not feeling too far from all the shops and restaurants in town. We very much enjoyed our stay, and the balcony area. Only a few things, that maybe made this stay more of a 4.7/5 stars. WiFi was tough. We really couldn’t get connected during our stay. Which wasn’t a huge deal because we didn’t have to work during our stay and didn’t spend a ton of time in the condo anyways. Few things were a touch run down, toilet holder falling off the wall, stuff like that. Honestly, nothing that was a huge deal. Overall, we had a lovely time in the island and during our stay! And out of the options on Catalina Island for lodging this is a top choice for the view alone.
