Stayed at Catalina Island ...

Stayed at Catalina Island Inn twice now and honestly really enjoyed both stays. The place has a chill vibe, the rooms were comfortable, and the location made it easy to get around Avalon and enjoy the island. One of my favorite parts was the bunk beds setup — it actually made the stay more fun and perfect for traveling with friends or family. Everything felt relaxed and convenient, which is exactly what you want during a Catalina trip. Staff was friendly, check-in was smooth, and overall it’s a spot I’d definitely come back to again.

Really nice stay and great location! The prices were reasonable too, especially with most things in Avalon being a bit on the expensive side. Everything was clean and the staff was always friendly and helpful. Would absolutely come back :)

Room was gorgeous and spacious, very clean, and a perfect walking distance from the main strip of restaurants and shops. Staff was friendly, helpful, and welcoming. Lovely place. Stayed there a few times now, and it's the same great experience.

I chose this because it was out of the way. There is a shuttle but stops before 8pm. If you are not into nightlife,this is your hotel. Breakfast was ok

The hotel was just ...

The hotel was just what we were looking for. We rented the 1st floor King room with patio and a fireplace. Let me tell you, the room is huge, clean, and really nice. The staff was friendly. Check in is 4pm, but they do allow you to store your luggage while you wait and even offer a call option if your room is ready early. This hotel is near everything. Literally :) food, activities, shopping, and just steps off the boardwalk.
