We were at your hotel in January 2012 to just getaway for the weekend and we loved it. The service wonderful and the hotel was clean. Looking forward to making this a monthly or quarterly stay for just the two of us. Keep up the good work. More

What a great hotel and staff. Everyone was very helpful, and the spa was heavenly. I really enjoyed the hotel being nestled away in the hills of Catalina making it very quite. An affordable weekend with a chance for some RnR. Thanks to the staff for an excellent weekend. More

I had the pleasure of escorting a Girls Varsity Soccer team to play the local Hign School. My initial thought was, "This is going to be a nightmare." Ophelia not only helped me out by accomodating my girls in a single block of rooms together, but she also assisted us with identifying local restaraunts for dinner and in getting our... More

We had a nice weekend. Our room with the balcony was nice and clean. No hotel bed is comfortable to me, so I cannot comment. The few dogs we ecountered were friendly and well mannered. The staff seemed very shy except for the manager. This getaway met our needs since we come from a "tourist" town, we prefer a less... More

We stayed here 3 weekend nights in late January, which is very much the off-season on Catalina. The hotel is... fine. Not terrible, not wonderful. In off-season, breakfast is only served Sat and Sun. They have a shuttle to get you back and forth to the downtown area, very pleasant drivers. Walking down to the town isn't bad, it's maybe... More

We stayed for two nights at what looked like a motel. Our room was not very clean and the minimal toiletries available and were not replaced the next day. Lucky for us we did not spend much time in our room because the walls were thin as mentioned by other reviewers. The continental breakfast was a laughable. We had to... More
