Fresh off the boat (literally) and having never been to Catalina, we had selected the Catalina Island Inn. It's "off season" so the rates were in our comfort zone. We didn't know what to expect. We walked into the small lobby and were greeted as if we were returning customers. We were there at 10:30 - way too early to check in - but wait, the gentleman checked and said, "They just cleaned your room so you can check in now if you would like." Huh? We are definitely not in Kansas anymore! That was the start of our three day holiday. A very clean room; a totally smoke free environment, and a beautiful stay! Are we coming back to the Island? Yep. Are we staying there again...Yep. Duh.

Room tip: Top floor has light and views. Bottom floors do not.

Dear Chris---
We are so encouraged by your wonderful review of Catalina Island Inn. Our staff works hard to make every guest feel welcomed and valued. We guarantee a 2 pm check in, but always come directly to the hotel. Upon arrival, if the room is ready, guests may check in. If not, we can take care of the paperwork, store your luggage and call your cell phone if your room is ready early. We are relentless about our NO SMOKING policy. Our rooms come in every style and price point. All are immaculately clean and charming. Great rates continue Sunday-Thursday (and for a few more weekends) with up to 50% off savings. We look forward to your next visit.

We visited the island for our 30th anniversary and we loved the Catalina Island Inn. We stayed on the 4th floor with a balcony overlooking the beautiful bay. There were a lot of stairs but it was worth the climb.

Room tip: The fourth floor with balcony has the best views

Dear Karen--
Thanks so much for choosing Catalina Island Inn for your 30th anniversary trip. We have so many couples who get engaged, honeymoon or celebrate special occasions with us. It's our pleasure to help make your stay memorable. Yes, the trek to the Harbor View King Balcony Rooms isn't for the fainthearted. But as you stated, it's amazing up there. For any guest wanting to gaze at the ocean, the beach or the harbor--- they need only to step out the front door and turn left. Everywhere you look there are views that are perfect for selfies and photos. Come back again soon.

We came to Catalina for the March 5k & 10k. The Catalina inn was affordable, clean & only one small block from Main st shops & dining. They had complementary fruit out during the day and oj,coffee, danishes & a fruit continental breakfast. Our room was small but as advertised. Showers were hot, bed was comfortable & the decor classy. We were very happy with the value for our price paid. Would definitely return to the Catalina Inn!!

Thanks so much for your great review of Catalina Island Inn. We loved having all of the runners staying with us this past weekend. Our manager came in at 4:30 am to provide coffee for the marathoners heading down to the Isthmus to start the race. Our Queen non view rooms are clean, comfortable and perfect for busy people who spend their time exploring the island and getting out into its rugged interior. Our rates Sunday-Thursday remain at up to 50% off through May. Weekends are also often discounted. We serve our 'grab n go' continental breakfast with instant oatmeal each morning and provide coffee, tea and fruit continuously. In summer we also provide refreshing ice water in our lobby. We look forward to your next stay with us.

Needed a few days away from Los Angeles! Got on Catalina Express and entered this gorgeous space at the Catalina Island Inn. Had the downstairs King Suite (there are rooms with views upstairs--but since I have asthma didn't want to have to hike up the stairs.) Although the 1st floor King Suites have no views of the ocean, the room has lovely updates, fireplace, outside patio,4 poster king bed, two sitting areas, very clean, didn't hear my neighbors, and steps from the ocean & downtown/restaurants--oh--for intimate dinner, highly recommend Avalon Grille. This Inn had what we were looking for. The pictures you see online are exactly what you get--beautiful.
Highly recommend.

Dear Ms Shoes--
Thanks so much for this all-star review of Catalina Island Inn. Our island paradise is just a little over an hour away by boat but a world apart from the rest of southern California. The King Fireplace suites on the ground floor are the newest and most luxurious rooms we offer. They are perfect for entertaining with club chairs and ottomans in the sitting area, a bistro table with two stools and his and her chaise lounges on the private patio. On a cool winter evening or after an active day guests can relax in sumptuous comfort. We appreciate all of your kind comments and that you highly recommend our hotel. Call us to help arrange your next planned or spontaneous island getaway. We'll have your room ready.

The location was fantastic; a short walk from the pier and beach but not right in the middle of all the tourist things. The hotel was very nice but had very limited breakfast options. The room was fine but the bathroom was extremely small (the sink had to be located outside the bathroom, which worked out for us). Staff was very friendly.

Dear Maile and Fred--
Thanks for your great review of Catalina Island Inn. Our Queen non view rooms have a European floor plan with the sink and vanity in the main part of the room. The toilet and stall shower are separate with a door for privacy. Our staff provide a "grab n go" continental breakfast daily which includes instant oatmeal, pastries and fruit with orange juice, coffee and tea. Since we do not have a kitchen this is meant to be a quick way to start the day. Thanks for acknowledging our perfect location and friendly service. Guests choose their preferred room type and when booking by phone our reservation specialists can describe every aspect of the particular room you are booking. Our "Best of Winter" package with up to 50% off lodging, boat and taxi is ending soon. It is available Sunday-Thursdays and offers great value and convenience. Let us help you plan your next island adventure soon.
