Hotel Atwater

10/10 Excellent

"Clean and fresh. Rooms were small but nice. Close to boardwalk. Free morning coffee voucher was a nice touch"

La Paloma Las Flores

10/10 Excellent

"Me and my family stayed here a couple nights . Not too far from the main strip but far enough to where it’s nice and quiet . Overall we will stay here again next year. Very charming"

Hotel St. Lauren

10/10 Excellent

"The staff let us check in earlier. The price was decent compare to other hotels in Avalon."

Glenmore Plaza Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"One of the best hotels in Catalina Island"

Studio 9 Hotel Catalina

10/10 Excellent

"Hotel Catalina Studio 9 was clean, comfortable, with a beautiful sitting area outside on the cozy covered porch! There was no air conditioning in my room, but the foyer was cooled and relaxing. We brought portable, personal fans, which really helped during the hot spell which occurred September 11 - 13, 2026. There was limited amenities; a small fridge and microwave was provided in the room and nice tv, but no coffee provided, but lovely body wash and 2 in 1 shampoo/conditioner was included in the room with a hair dryer. Since travel to the island required various times of ferry or helicopter service, the kind staff allowed the patrons to leave luggage in foyer, until departure! What a Blessing!!! As travel on foot and shuttle would have been difficult while toting bags. We were able to pick them back up, closer to departure time! The staff is available in person between hours of 9am - 6pm, with a phone number for emergencies after hours. Overall, 5 Star Rating!!! Will stay there, again!"
