Our La Casa Sirena (The Mermaid House) at Bahia Vista in Avalon on beautiful Santa Catalina Island offers affordable luxury just three blocks from the beach. We provide you with FREE WIFI, Netflix, Roku, BBQ and propane on a private patio, pool and spa. (Note: During the pandemic, the association has opted to do repairs to the pool and spa, which will not be available for use until sometime in 2023.) We regret the inconvenience!) We fully remodeled, including wood floors throughout. The property features tasteful Catalina and mermaid-themed décor, fun for the whole family! We have two spacious bedrooms upstairs plus a downstairs cove and can comfortably sleep six. In the Master, enjoy a king bed, walk-in double-head shower, double-vanity in a lush, terracotta setting. The second bedroom features comfortable twin beds in a nautical theme. The guest bath includes a Jacuzzi tub set amidst rich marble tile. A comfortable daybed/trundle downstairs with pull-out completes the accommodations. And as the name suggests, there are plenty of mermaids to be found! Most units at Bahia Vista are available for rent, making the complex perfect for family reunions or multiple families who wish to vacation together but have separate accommodations. For occasional extra-warm weather we include both ceiling and floor fans. (Note: Local rules are in flux. Some areas of the grounds, including the pool, may be closed or have limited access during the pandemic.)

VALUE GUARANTEE - Why is La Casa Sirena such a great value? Unlike some big companies, we are proud to charge only what our cleaning company charges us with nothing tacked on, and no "administrative fee," no "processing fee," no "mandatory damage waver" or any other fees from us! (The service fee you'll see is charged by VRBO.) For our longer-term guests: We apply a 5% discount to a stay of 7 consecutive nights, and a 10% discount for a month's stay (28 consecutive nights).

We look forward to welcoming you to our Catalina getaway. 😊😊

Most sincerely yours,
Mel and Leslie

The unit was spacious. We had problems with the toilets and we heard a screeching sound from one of the bathrooms that continued through the night. This noise was so loud we weren't able to sleep. The property manager was gracious and came to our unit around 9 PM and fixed one of the toilets. We also had to purchase bath gel for the shower and soap for hand washing.

Catalina Island VRBO
We were very disappointed in our stay at La Casa Serena and expected a better value for the cost. Yes, the location was great, communication good etc. but the unit isn’t as presented. I think we had clean beds but housekeepers need to do a much better job. There is dirt in the woodwork in places, especially the master bath. The living room carpet had not been vacuumed and was faded and worn. Then we cooked with pans and utensils that were unsafe due to wear and tear; spatulas ready to break, handles on pans ready to fall off, and old burnt pan bottoms. The dishwasher did not work and we were notified the day we moved in. There was one wine glass and the other glasses did not match. It would take the owners very little money to improve just those items. Will never stay there again and we also will not recommend the complex to anyone else. The pool and hot tub should be fixed or at least unlocked so renters can sit in the sun. And last but not least, the laundry room could be cleaned and brightened up.

Not an accurate description
We booked this place specifically because of the pool and hot tub. Imagine our disappointment when we get there and the pool and hot tub are in the midst of being repaired. The description says the pool and hot tub will be closed for repairs in 2023. Our trip was in February of 2024 and still not done. The address given is incorrect. Brought us to the wrong place. It was very confusing. I would put the correct address here but I'm sure it's not allowed. I will contact the host and explain the issue with the address and, hopefully, she will make the correction. Other than that, the unit was immaculate. Close to everything. Well appointed kitchen. T.V. in both bedrooms which I appreciate.

It was fine, however, the cleaner was not as thorough, and the neighbor above was a bit loud with their music.

Great location - convenient and quiet
The townhome was clean and comfortable. Easy location. The pool area has been out of commission for a long time so not sure what that is about.

House not cleaned upon arrival
Check-in time for this property was 3:00 pm. When we arrived at 3:45, the property had not been cleaned since the last check-out. Called the property manager who was apologetic and sent out a cleaning crew, but we started our stay by sitting outside for over an hour while waiting for the place to be cleaned. Aside from the rough start, the place was comfortable and was plenty of room for our party of 4
