Seacrest Inn Catalina

"The Sandcastle house at the Seacrest Inn is an understated gem. Perfect for 6 with a king bed, two twin beds (king and twins super comfy!), and a sofa bed in the living room (didn’t use but also likely amazing). TVs in every room currently if you are the type to stay inside or want something to watch at night. Good WiFi, full kitchen, nice bathroom with a warm shower, heating and AC in the bedrooms. The house (and main hotel) is close to everything when you get off the ferry or are venturing around. But the two best parts: roof top deck on the main hotel is really nice both during the day and in the evening, and Michael the hotel manager who was super nice and friendly. Loved our stay, would gladly stay again. Don’t hesitate to book if available."

"I had a wonderful stay at the Seacrest Inn. Michael and the rest of the staff were very accommodating and helped make my visit to Catalina a wonderful experience. I had a dog traveling with me and was very happy with the room and appreciated having a private entry/exit for quick walks. Having never been to Catalina before, it was fun to be right in the downtown area with easy access to everything. I would definitely stay at Seacrest again and would strongly recommend it to anyone traveling with a dog. I have included a photo from the rooftop deck; make sure you take a few minutes to enjoy it if you stay there. Thank you Seacrest Inn for helping to make my visit a good one!"

"I had taken an extra guest and didn’t think to call ahead. Upon my arrival, Michael advised me to call ahead next time because he might not have had any room left. He was kind enough to accommodate our special last minute request which saved us a big headache. Aside from the staff’s courtesy and hospitality being outstanding, the rooms were sparkle clean and everything was in working order. The hotel is conveniently located right by the Catalina express landing and only a short walking distance from the main boardwalk. Overall, one of the best places to stay at in Catalina."

"We checked in for a night and it's a lovely little place. Service is wonderful and the location was great for us because it wasn't right up next to everything but it's still close enough to get to anything you need, though you can walk to almost anything in Avalon from anywhere within 20 minutes or less anyway. There's a rooftop with barbecue grills guests can use. The AC units are a little janky but the overall room temp was comfortable and the bed was comfy. I actually liked that there was no carpet, too. One other note is that there's no elevator or anything (that I know of), so you'll need to take the stairs or try a different hotel if you need more accessibility."

"Excellent place to stay if you’re visiting Catalina. Service and staff are SO SO polite and kind, they made the experience feel so personal in the best kind of way. The rooftop deck is so special and really a gem of the building, great view of the bay from the top. The rooms are so cute and all different in one way or another, the shower in our room was to DIE for! Pretty pink tile and a cute window in it that made the room feel so perfect. I absolutely recommend staying here, if my boyfriend and I come back again, we will be returning to Seacrest Inn!"
