Avalon, on Catalina Island, offers villa-style holiday homes that put you steps from the beach and a short walk to the town's restaurants and shops. These self-catering properties, such as Charming Renovated Avalon Townhome, Walk to Beach! and Gorgeous Oceanfront Villa With Panoramic Views, give you more space and flexibility than a standard hotel room. Most include free WiFi, full kitchens, and non-smoking interiors, while select villas add a patio, barbecue, or even a golf cart for exploring the island.
Rates in Avalon run from budget-friendly options like Walk to Beach: Catalina Gem W/ Deck! to higher-end stays with oceanfront decks or spa facilities, such as Catalina Two Bedroom View Home. Central locations put you within a 10-15 minute walk to Descanso Beach and local landmarks like Raindance Art. For families or groups, these villas offer multiple bedrooms, living areas, and sometimes a children's playground or hot tub. Book early for summer weekends, as Avalon's villa inventory is limited.
