What a lovely place to stay! Neat, clean, right on the beach, superb room, quiet and very private. The staff was very helpful and knowledgeable about the island. The hotel is right in the middle of everything and because it is "up" just a bit, it is still "out of the way". A great combination. We loved it. We would... more

My wife and I came here for a belated honeymoon during my R&R while being deployed in Iraq. We booked the Courtyard Deluxe room and informed them it was our honeymoon. I was stunned at how big the room was when we walked in. There was a minibar with a complementary bottle of champagne (for our honeymoon), a sitting area... more

Location: It is literally 10 steps from the beach, walking distance from the piers and golf cart&jet ski rentals, lots of small shops and good restaurants around. The staff are pleasant.

The location of this hotel is perfect -- right on the beach, so we didn't need to hike up hills to get home every time we went out. We found ourselves stopping back frequently during the day to drop things off or spend some time sitting on the balcony -- the two oceanfront suites have balconies, which are separated from... more

We have stayed at the Hotel Vista Del Mar for over 10 years. And what a delight- it's like being at home, only better! With super comfortable rooms and a wonderful continental breakfast served in the airy atrium, this hotel is a treat. It's location is close to many activities and just steps from the beach. At night, they bake... more

We have been going to Catalina for years, and have stayed in many other hotels in Avalon.... None of them can compete with this hotels amenities, i.e. Starbucks coffee, breakfast, warm cookies & milk, fire places, robes, jacuzzi tubs, welcoming staff, and I especially like how nice and well kept the rooms are! Can't beat that anywhere in Avalon! Oh....... more

My wife and I have been going to Catalina for 14 years. In the beginning it was just the two of us on romantic getaways. Now it's with the kids, friends and extended family. Five years ago we upgraded to the Vista Del Mar. It's just across from the Pier and beach and the balcony is perfect for viewing the... more

I have travelled around the world and have stayed in both large and small five star hotels.....At Hotel Vista del Mar, I feel like I am at home away from home. It's not often you find such comfy, cozy luxury in a small hotel. I love waking to the smell of freshly brewed Starbucks coffee. I can grab a book,... more
