We loved the hotel. Located on a side street and away from the busy Front Street shops and restaurants. We stayed two nights, and it was great. Our room offered a nice balcony with views of the bay. The bed was comfortable and cozy. The bathroom was large. We had cups and a coffee maker along with a mini fridge, so it was everything we needed for our two night stay. They offer a continental breakfast each morning out on the patio, which is a peaceful spot to just sit, enjoy the firepit, and koi pond. Or the roof deck is awesome with a BBQ, tables and chairs and stunning views. They also offer trays so you can take your breakfast back to your room and have breakfast in bed. Spoiled! The staff couldn't have been more helpful, friendly and accommodating. Evelyn was awesome, thank you for the smiles and truly wonderful service throughout our stay. Off the boat, we went to drop our luggage to store until check-in. Fortunately we were there during the week, and our room was ready earlier, so we chilled a bit before heading out to explore and have lunch. They also held our bags upon check out. After we returned from an adventure, they allowed us to sit on the patio and enjoy the sun before we had to be at our boat. We couldn't have asked for a better stay, and we will absolutely go back. Just a note for anyone who has mobility issues. The hotel is awesome, but note that you have to walk part way up a little hill to reach the stairs to the small lobby. There are stairs to the lobby and depending on which floor your room is located, there is no elevator, just stairs. For someone in a wheelchair or needing a walker and unable to climb stairs, it is not doable. read more

First time at Avalon and this hotel was a blessing to stay at. The views are great and the bed is very comfortable. Stayed two nights. They have packages that include the ferry back and forth so I recommend checking out their website. Continental breakfast is the basics but very good. Customer service and house keeping staff was amazing. They're super nice great people. Location is great! Definitely would stay here again. read more

This hotel is perfection. It's close to the main road with shops and restaurants, but far enough so it's still quiet. The grounds and rooms are extremely well maintained and immaculate. The staff goes above and beyond to help with anything you need. Just a quaint family owned hotel that is quality and worth every penny. read more

This hotel was 5 star all day, everyday!! It's obvious that management pays attention to detail. The room I stayed in was awesome!! very comfortable bed, spacious, clean with an awesome view of the ocean. The staff was very helpful from check in till the time we checked out. The early morning continental breakfast was very good. I was able to relax and take a nice bubble bath well over due. I'm 6'3 with a few extra pounds rt now and the tub was perfect!!!. Those who know me know that I'm very picky but The Avalon Hotel met all my expectations and more. Thank you to the front desk 'Jacob' , our coordinator Ms. Lesley and last but not least, the owners. I had a blast and will definitely return. read more

Excellent customer service and accommodations. We will definitely be back. Kevin and staff made us feel at home

Wow - What a great hotel. Great location within waling distance of the Avalon harbor, maybe 5-7 minutes walk, or they offer a free taxi ride over from the harbor. Scenic views of the harbor and the Casino, great staff (friendly, helpful, knowledgeable), great service, and accommodating during the big storm that rolled in for New Years Eve 2022. The person behind the desk was very nice, helpful, offered suggestions on things to see and do, he even helped another guest get a tie for the NYE party at the Casino, the guest had forgotten his tie. He was nice enough to tell us about the storm coming in and the boats might be cancelled coming in and going out. He told us to check with the boat place to make sure we could get a change in our boat tickets and get off the island. The day we got in, we arrived a little early but they stored our bags and then delivered them to our room before we got there. Great local taffy in the lobby, and some more in your room along with some drinks and chocolates. The room was spacious, clean, filled with amenities. The hotel is very close to shopping, restaurants, the harbor, the casino, etc. We are definitely looking forward to visiting again. read more

When you hear of the Catalina Island, it is almost impossible not to have heard of The Avalon Hotel. The experience in staying at such a landmark Bed-and-Breakfast-esque accommodation is well worth the hype - you will feel its magic once you arrive. Nestled up on an inclined street, The Avalon Hotel bears the signature Manchu yellow color familiar throughout the island, with decorative geometric 1920's tiles, giving the bygone era sentiments with modern amenities. Check-in was pleasant, the gentleman at the reception was quite knowledgeable and answered any questions we had. He also informed us about breakfast (7AM to 10AM) and where we can fill up our water bottles. The room was quaint with decors - we were also surprised with a gift in the room upon arrival! I did inform them earlier that it was a special occasion, and they welcomed us with a bouquet of flowers, balloon, a card, and even a Martinelli's Apple Cider (they offered champagne, we declined). We loved our balcony, with an ocean view, and was quick to take our coffee there to take in the salty chilled air! We also appreciated the unlimited coffee/tea and fresh fruits at the front desk area. Continental breakfast included bagels and bread to toast, bakery items from Lloyds, as well as instant oatmeal and cereal bar. There were cold hard boiled eggs and yogurts for some protein, milk and orange juice, as well as their unlimited supply of Columbian coffee, which was delicious. There were also fresh fruits and supplies of single serve jams and jellies, cream cheese, and peanut butter. We enjoyed our breakfast out in the garden terrace, next to the Koi pond. It truly was a magical experience to be able to stay at a well-maintained, well serviced accommodations, such as the Avalon Hotel. There's a reason why their rating is consistently high, they make their guests experiences one to remember! Just on a side note, if you're interested in purchasing a souvenir of the Avalon Hotel, which includes those coffee mugs that are in your room, is it possible. Just inform the concierge at the front desk and they were included to your final bill. Just a little reminiscent gift to remember such a wonderful experience! ------------------------------------------------ The ONLY Way to get to the Catalina Island is by a ferry boat (via Long Beach, San Pedro, Newport Beach or Dana Point)which is about an hour ride. Once you arrive on the island, give a call to The Avalon Hotel and they will provide a white cargo taxi transportation, which is complementary (however, tipping the driver is greatly appreciated and he may also help with the heavier luggage's up the first full flight of the stairs!). PROS: EXCELLENT SERVICE! From the moment, we communicated with them via phone a week prior in regards to the boat ride from Long Beach terminal to the day of our arrival, every time we contacted the hotel, we received great communication. We were also unaware of the fact that the building does not have any elevator access, and we had booked a room that was on the third floor. Thankfully, they were kind enough to accommodate us to a lower floor unit! We did also opt for daily housekeeping - this is available with no additional charge! The hotel is very quiet and serene ambiance, we truly had the best rejuvenating experience! LOCATION. This hotel is located within minutes of the heart of the Avalon, to the "Casino", the museum, the Vons supermarket, shops, and restaurants nearby. Because we were off-season, some of the businesses were not open, so it may be a good idea to call ahead to find out whether or not it is open for business. CONS: NO ELEVATORS - STAIRS ONLY. This place will be difficult for those who have mobility issues, especially those in wheelchairs and or any assistive device. WEATHER. As mentioned, we went during the off-season (end of Jan-Feb) so it was a bit chillier than normal. However, coming from the East Coast, you will love this off-season weather! Just be aware that you will be welcomed with sudden rain showers, but no worries, the front desk area has clear umbrellas that you can double as a walking cane. Just be sure to bring it back as you may get charged for the lost item. PRICE: Price is comparable to the season, whether you want to pay the high season prices it will be worth it, even though it is quite expensive. Going there off-season, there are specials that are available for guests - call The Avalon Hotel directly and they will be more than happy to work with you on your dream vacation. Our package included a choice between receiving the third night stay free, or two round-trip tickets for the Catalina Express boat ride. Depending on the length of your stay, either options, would save you quite a bundle. read more

Stayed at the Avalon Hotel for three nights recently, and it was an amazing experience! The hotel is located at a great location in Avalon, basically halfway between where the Catalina Express Docks and Descanso Beach, so the location is amazing and in the middle of everything, which makes getting to places easy. Check in was easy and they were able to accomodate us arriving earlier than the 3 PM check-in time. The hotel is about a 10-15 minute walk from where the Catalina Express docks, although they do offer taxi to and from the dock. The folks at the front desk were great, and even brought our bags up the stairs to the third floor, which was nice. There are no elevators at this hotel, so if you have trouble going up or down stairs, try booking something on the first floor. We stayed a room with the garden/patio view, and it was clean and the bed was very comfortable. There were a few snacks in the room, and there was a mini fridge. The bathroom was nice as well and included toiletries, like shampoo and body wash which were good. You also have access to the roof, which has an amazing view of the water and the Casino. Breakfast was included in the stay, and it was pretty good! There was a variety of breads, like bagels and english muffins, yogurt, hard boiled eggs, and granola. It is out on the patio/garden area they have, and the staff is very attentive at making sure to restock any food items that get low. Overall, it was a great experience with this hotel and the hotel is located in a fantastic spot in Avalon. I highly recommend it to anyone! read more

Evelyn is a delight! Only one of the amazing staff at this fabulous little place. Don't let the size fool you. Small here is a plus as it means personalized service by people who have a sense of ownership and pride in their work. The hotel was immaculate, the coffee superb, and the views from the top floor are beautiful. Adorable private patio with a continental breakfast. DO NOT miss the Avalon Hotel Tangerine Sage Sea Salt body scrub and shea body butter (available for purchase... and we did!) We greatly enjoyed our three day, two night stay in Room 101. read more

My wife and I loved our stay at the Avalon Hotel. I don't imagine any of the other hotels around can beat it's combination of location, amenities, and vibes. A quick walk to all the spots in town. The Hotel has a quant ole timey feeling, the service was very friendly and willing to help with any of our needs. Our room came with complementary beach chairs which was awesome, we took these to Descanso Beach Club - didn't have to rent them there, saved us ~$150! The bathroom was very nice, bed was comfy, and we enjoyed our porch/balcony and also the rooftop. We were the only ones up there most of the time and felt very private.. gotta be one of the best views in town. I'd recommend the Avalon Hotel to anybody looking for a getaway weekend. read more

They do serve a free continental breakfast of fruits, cereals, and pastries. Overall we were very pleased with our stay and 1000000% recommend staying here! This will be our go to when we return to the island! read more

The Avalon Hotel - On the rooftop lounge area! Beautiful views! - Hotels Near Me - Avalon, California

We stayed at The Avalon Hotel for our 50th wedding anniversary. The atmosphere was so beautiful and relaxing. Breakfast was complimentary in the patio consisting of bagels, English muffins, muffins, cereals, fresh fruit, fruit cups, coffee, tea, juices.... The patio was so quiet and peaceful with the sound of the water fountain trickling. The room was very cozy, and the beds extremely comfortable. I love having extra pillows to prop myself up with when viewing television or just holding while I sleep. They give plenty of pillows for that! The hotel supplies you with good size bottles of shampoo, conditioner, and body wash, all of great quality, enough for days. They also supply you with Q-tips, cotton swabs, and a razor. They provide bath robes to use or purchase if you would like, and a beach bag for use while there. It seems they think of everything you need to keep you comfortable. We had a room with a terrace that provided a beautiful view of the ocean and boats. Watching the boats come and go was interesting. Every night at 5pm they blow their horns a couple times which is something they started during Covid as a connection with each other. That was really fun to experience! Every employee at the hotel treated us with such warmth and welcome, always smiling. They will carry on interesting conversations with you with anything from plants in their garden to history of the island and more. It's as if you have known them for years. They go above and beyond to help you. They will store your bags upon arrival until proper check in time and early check in is available provided the room is ready, which ours was. They will also store your bags after check out so you can continue to tour the island freely. You are welcome to spend the day in their patio, or roof top supplied with chairs and a beautiful view, as well as an outdoor shower until you are ready to board your ship. As a bonus, you are given a free voucher for a taxi to and from the hotel on your day of arrival and departure. That was very convenient for us. I was amazed because we took the cab to the port, me not realizing that I left a bag of items that I purchased in the hotel lobby when we got into our car. Next thing we knew while at the port, Evelyn from the front desk was at the port with it. She hurried to the port in her car to make sure I got my items!!! I was shocked, so grateful, and convinced that the employees at The Avalon go above and beyond to make your stay the best! You cannot ask for better accommodations than what The Avalon offers. You feel like family there. Thank you so much for a beautiful and very memorable 50th wedding anniversary, and the complimentary wine and anniversary card. We will never forget this celebration, and plan to come back again, hopefully next year! read more

Customer service sucks! I had a rash all over my body after checking out, the rooms aren't clean.

Spent a really nice weekend at Catalina Island at the Avalon Hotel. The garden in the back is a gem, they sometimes do wine tasting. It was raining, they also set the fire one morning. The bathrobes were quite cute, the staff is friendly and informative about local/tourist attractions. Finally, the rooftop is very nice to have a drink at night. Very quiet and night view is amazing. read more

Fiance and I came back again to celebrate our 10 years together and 1 year of getting engaged in this Hotel. All I can say is once again they are PHENOMENAL. Gorgeous rooms that have everything you could need, refrigerator, microwave, coffee, robes, breakfast in the morning. The views are spectacular, and everything is just a short walk away. Room 203 is perfect for a more tucked away feel with a balcony (very romantic) and now room 301 has blown us away. Wrap around balcony with front facing views where you can spend hours at a time. Thank you again Avalon Hotel for the exceptional hospitality you all continue to deliver. This is by far the best Hotel to stay at read more

My husband, son (2 years old) and I stayed at the Avalon hotel for 5 days. We enjoy everything about the hotel from day one. Continental breakfast is provided in their beautiful garden, fire TV service provided in your room, Continental water bottle and coffee provided. Beautiful rooftop open for 8-10pm with amazing 360 view of the island. Daily room service provided. The staff and owner of the hotel are insight daily. Your communication and counter with them is suplendious; they are happy to give insights on the best restaurants and excursions. We stayed at the Garden view room with ocean view. It was a spacious room for us three. The bathroom was spacious with enough space. I love the tub in the bathroom for bathtime with my son. There's a microwave and fridge in the room. The heating and cooling of the room was pretty straightforward. Everything is absolutely clean, tidy and decorative. Thank you Avalon staff for making our family vacation one for the books. Merry Christmas & Happy new year read more

Trust me, I really try to rate my reviews honestly and from first hand experience. I know all the reviews listed in Yelp are all 5 stars which leaves no room for improvement. My review is as follows: 10 Stars for staff - you couldn't have hired a better group of individuals, being an Human Resources Professional I know it takes a certain personality to be in a service position. Totally in love with Evelyn, Tutuia (forgive me if this is misspelled), Kim and Sean. For some reason, Rock when he first encountered us, said nothing. Later on, when we were having breakfast, I kinda forced a conversation and he opened up a bit. This is odd for being the owner. 5 Stars Continental Breakfast - available, (this is big for me, some run too early and by the end there is nothing left) Food is fresh and upscale, not the Costco versions of pastries. Coffee good and strong. All the things one might look for at home. Loved it! 5 Stars Bathroom - quaint, loved the sink, tub and bathrobes! Lots of light, blow dryer and steamer. The mirror were cool with the built lights. 3 Stars Bed - now, I did see lots of compliments for the memory foam beds but if you have back problems, they are too soft, hard to get into and out of especially if the bed is unusually high, with a chest style bedframe. The murphy bed had a slight elevation for the head area which was not adjustable causing your back to curve. Maybe have alternate beds available for this type of guest. When brought to Rock's attention about ADA needs, he simply said, if you are disabled, this is not your hotel. I'm sorry, but as I mentioned, I am a Human Resources Professional and this was unacceptable and kinda rude. 5 Stars - for property location, cleanliness and the coy pond was a real relaxing addition. I guess if you are there for Island activities, the TV isn't real important however, we could never get the TV's volume to get loud enough to hear it. Overall, I would absolutely come back, if they let us after this review. Gee read more

This is an absolutely wonderful little boutique hotel, located about a block off of Step beach in downtown Avalon. We stayed in room 306. In my opinion 306 and 301 have the best views of the Pacific (and downtown) in the hotel. The photo below is a sunrise pic from the balcony of 306, which includes a balcony wet bar. The room is a bit small, but is laid out well, is well appointed and kept up nicely, and has nice amenities. The only drawback for some, if you're walking, is the block from the main street to the hotel is an uphill walk. From there you have 2 more short flights of stairs to get to the lobby. The hotel has no elevators, so depending on what floor you're on you could have 2 more full flights of stairs to climb to get to your room. Other than that, most people will find this property a true gem. We sure did. Its not cheap, but it doesn't disappoint either. read more

The Avalon Hotel - Sunrise from the balcony of 306. - Hotels Near Me - Avalon, California

Delightful, relaxing and picturesque. These words best describe my time at Avalon and Catalina Island. This boutique hotel exceeded my expectations in every way. I decided to embark on a last minute girls getaway and found myself with a limited number of hotel options on opening weekend. After searching various sites (Catalina Chamber, Yelp, Travelocity and TripAdvisor), we collectively decided to book a few separate rooms at Avalon with partial views of the ocean. Photos do not adequately display the beauty of this property. The light fixtures have pics of the island. No detail is missed. It's pretty awesome. Decor aside, the hotel offers complimentary taxi service to and from the boat terminal, free breakfast, snacks, Snapple drinks, body scrubs and books( to enjoy while there) and a wine and cheese happy hour (HH on weekdays only). Add to that there's an adorable Inn Keeper on site and koi pond. My only displeasure was having to always take a flight of stairs (no elevator). On weekends, there is generally a two night minimum and on holidays the minimum is three nights which is on par with most properties on the island. But if you attempt to make travel accommodations at the last minute (like we did) and there are rooms available, you may be able to stay for fewer nights. Every aspect of this stay was magical particularly given the history and connection Catalina has to the Chicago Cubs and The Wrigley Family. Seeing bison roam freely, the casino with no gambling and a place in Los Angeles County laced with golf carts and tiny cars was all made better by the smiles, warmth and care exhibited by every employee of this property. The bed was one of the most comfortable hotel beds I have ever slept on and the modern bathroom amenities were just as impressive. I love Avalon and have no doubt that you will too! read more

I booked this hotel for my hubby birthday. He was very surprised and happy to relax in our beautiful room. The corner wraparound balcony was perfect with amazing ocean view. The balcony was appointed with a fridge/freezer and sink. There's a rooftop terrace with outdoor fridge and sink along with severally BBQ grills and ocean views of course. The toiletries in our bathroom smelled delish. The bed comfy. We had nice size fridge, microwave, and coffeemaker in our room as well. The staff left a lovely birthday surprise for my hubby. He truly loved it. Our first day we relaxed on balcony watching the ocean then left to eat dinner. But then we retired to our room so we can curl up on balcony and enjoy the sea breeze and relax and unwind. The staff are friendly and helpful. Continental breakfast is served. This hotel is so cozy and comfortable my husband was thinking about retiring here. LOL! Like we could afford it. Sorry honey. Vacations only. Special shout out to Innkeeper Stacey. She and her team went over and beyond to ensure our comfort. We appreciated the birthday surprise for my husband. Thank you for everything read more

We enjoyed this hotel very much, spending 2 nights in early Feb. 2022. Notable aspects: - The room is spacious, has a view of the bay from the balcony, and has a great bathroom. - Everything in the room and the common areas was SPOTLESS. This was the cleanest hotel I've ever stayed at. - The mattress was some sort of memory foam, unlike a standard hotel bed. - Breakfast was quite good. I particularly liked the homemade muffins. - Location is great, as it's close to everything but not on top of loud businesses. The motorized golfcarts going up and down the hill were a bit annoying but only when the sliding door was open; the room is pretty soundproof when the door and window are closed. - I appreciated the fact that the room rate included roundtrip ferry fare for two. It also included taxi fare to and from the boat landing, but we chose to walk (5-10 pleasant minutes). - Yes there was a 1776 Report book in the room, which I thought was odd, but nobody was in our face about political views. - Yes the owner never wore a mask in our presence, while his staff all did, so we just kept at a distance. All in all I highly recommend this place. read more

My favorite place to stay on Catalina. Great roof top hang out...kind of an old spot but is has massively nrw updates on all the rooms. Great views of the water and a helpful staff. It is slightly more expensive than some of the spots on Catalina, but not so much that it should deter u from staying here. The prices are competitive but you're likely getting the best Hotel in Avalon read more

Stayed here for an anniversary visit on Catalina Island.

We had an absolute wonderful experience staying at the Avalon Hotel this past memorial day weekend. They offer a unique boutique hotel experience not too far from the action. It is just up the hill from the Metropole which offered a wonderful view of the harbor from the rooftop deck. I highly recommend staying in room 301 or 306 as they are the highest up and face the ocean, but any of the rooms would be great. I am usually not a fan of standard included continental breakfast. I would say this was elevated above the standard fare because they offered hard boiled eggs and really good costa rican coffee. Evelyn and Shane were very helpful explaining all the amenities during check in and with recommendations around the island. Even before we arrived, they spent a good amount of time on the phone with me as I was planning the trip. Later in the trip, we also met the owners hanging out by the beautiful courtyard. Kathleen and Rock were very gracious hosts. Twenty years ago, we used to stay at the Inn at Mt Ada. We have now found our new favorite place and will definitely be staying at Avalon Hotel when we return. read more

We enjoyed a wonderful stay at The Avalon Hotel this week. Everyone who works there was courteous and went the extra mile for us when we needed anything. We arrived early in the day and our rooms weren't quite ready, so they called us as soon as the rooms were available (which was still well before the scheduled check-in time). The staff were polite and knowledgeable about Catalina's history and were genuinely welcoming. One employee even helped us figure out how to use our air conditioner (it won't come on if any doors or windows are open because of the system's sensors, and our open bathroom window was preventing the system from coming on). Even though she was technically "off the clock" for the evening, she was pleasant and helpful. The view from our room was spectacular, and we enjoyed sitting out on the balcony overlooking the harbor. We had everything we needed, plus nice little extras that made us feel pampered. The bathrobes were nice quality as were the personalized "Avalon" soaps and amenities. The pretty "Hotel Avalon" coffee mugs in the room were a nice touch. The hotel room had gorgeous wood furniture, and even though the room was small, there was plenty of storage. The hallway walls are adorned with historic photos of Catalina and we enjoyed learning about the island and taking a step back in time. Watching the sunset and enjoying the night stars from the 4th floor rooftop was another favorite part of the trip. We got to sit back, relax, and catch up with our family members (the four of us hadn't been together for over 2 years). The continental breakfast in the courtyard was nice, and we enjoyed the beautiful koi pond. The other guests at the hotel were personable, and our stay was really great. We will definitely stay here on return trips to the island. I'll always cherish the memories of my first Catalina sunrise from our room at the Avalon Hotel. read more

Great hotel. Friendly staff. Loved walking down the halls and seeing all the pictures of Catalina throughout the years. Our view was AMAZING - we stayed in room 306. There is a rooftop viewing area as well I didn't recall reading when I booked but it's SO amazing. Comfy beds, towels were so soft. Hotel provides great amenities from a keurig maker, breakfast, the shower / bathroom items smelt so good. I would stay here again and highly recommend. There is a ac unit / fan in the room we stayed in and it worked great. After leaving the hotel found an item we left behind and text us to have permission to mail it back home to us with a tracking number. Had to come add that to my review. So nice of them. read more

We stayed at the Avalon Hotel for my wife's birthday this earlier this week. This was our 2nd stay here. The staff is top notch and friendly. The rooftop deck is outstanding! So many little extras in the room and free taxi to and from the ferry! The Koi pond is awesome. It was nice to have a breakfast on site. Coffee really good. Our bed was a bit soft, memory foam worn? I'm sure they will update soon. We will be back for our 3rd stay soon. read more

Came to Catalina for a one night getaway. Avalon Hotel was beyond amazing. Very personal touch with everything. Super hospitable and a very cozy atmosphere.

The amenities are great, with a simple but satisfying breakfast, afternoon happy hour (weekdays) and so many delightful little touches in the room, including complimentary refreshments in the fridge. The staff is warm, friendly, and engaged. We loved the koi pond and the rooftop deck. We will be back!!! read more
