He was so helpful, she definitely goes out of her way to take care of her guests at the hotel. I can't even believe that she has only been working there for only 2... More

We purchased a package deal that included 2 nights and roundtrip Catalina Express ride for 2 people. We can't say enough how worth it this deal ended up - with all the service, amenities, staff. This 15 room hotel is beautiful interior and exterior. The amenities and complimentary items you get far exceeds a 4 star hotel. (Read Melodie S... More

It just doesn't get any better than this. We had an amazing time on our trip to Catalina Island, made even better by the service, amenities and staff of this beautiful hotel. Some people might find the third floor ocean view room with no elevator, challenging to reach, but we were very happy with the room, private balcony (complete with... More

We stayed three days and two nights at The Avalon Hotel. We had room 305. It is a garden view room, but if you stand at the window, you have a great view of the ocean. In this room, we had absolute quiet and a king size bed. This was our first visit to Catalina, and I know we will... More

Enjoyed our time here immensely. Room # 102 was delightful though there was traffic noise with the sliding door to the balcony open. Our room was spotless & the staff were cordial, professional & most accommodating. Continental Breakfast was excellent & view from 4th floor deck terrific.

Thank you for your wonderful comments. We have a great housekeeping staff and they do their best to assure a clean and comfortable room. We did bring in a sound expert during our remodel to assist us in making our rooms as quite as possible. If our sliding doors and windows are closed, it is very quiet in our rooms.... More

Went to Catalina to celebrate our Wedding Anniversary. Everything was perfect from the beginning Complimentary taxi transportation from the boat terminal to hotel (not that you really need it since it is only about a 10min walk). But since we had very heavy luggage it helped! Once we arrived and checked in around 11:30 to our surprise our room was... More

My wife and I spent our Anniversary on Catalina and stayed at the Avalon Hotel. From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with smiles. Champagne in the room, complementary wine/cheese, beautiful rooms. We spent as much time watching hummingbirds and feeding the koi as anything else!!
