Everyone that attended our reunion in September was pleasantly surprised at the courteous, conscientious staff that made sure all of our needs were met. Ivan, the manager of the hotel, went beyond by ensuring our stay was the most memorable vacation that we have encountered. The hotel was centrally located to all of the nightlife and action that Avalon had... more

The rooms were clean and well maintained. The view was spectacular. The staff at the El Terado was fantastic and the manager Ivan was very atentive to our needs. We definitely will be back... more

I've rarely taken the time to critique a hotel but just had to this time! El Terado without a doubt is the most comfortable and clean place to stay at Catalina Island. The accomodations were second to none and the friendly people who work there went "overboard" helping us and making sure our stay went well. I would recommend ElTerado... more

Ivan was a wonderful help when I made the reservations for the past weekend at Catalina a few weeks ago. He gave us a deduction on the room, and even had my room number assigned for me that very day, so I could see the pictures of the room right then. The room was spotless, clean, and had a fresh,... more

We just got back from the El Terado in Catalina and found it was not a B&B as advertised on Trip Adviser, rather a nice new hotel with big rooms and a full kitchen. When we asked about the breakfast the manager explained that something happened to Trip Advisor a few weeks ago and the listing shifted from “Hotels in... more

El Terado is a wonderful place to stay in Avalon, and I recommend it most heartily. Be sure to contact Ivan directly for a better deal than listed on the website. He was very hospitable and made sure we had everything we needed. The housekeeping staff gave us plenty of towels and anything else required. Be sure to let them... more

My husband and I along with friends and family had one of the best experiences due to the "TLC" given to us by Ivan, the manager of the property. As a travel agent for the past 15 years, I meet many managers on my hotel inspections. Never have I been treated so graciously as well as given the utmost attention... more

We spent a splendid long weekend at the El Terado. Staff was great and attentive. The room was bright and spacious. The kind proprietors Mr. and Mrs. Ellison were very hospitable and invited us for a cocktail on the hotel veranda. It was a lovely languid afternoon, as we lounged on their veranda and watched the Avalon harbor slip slowly... more
