The staff was excellent—took advantage of the complimentary beach chairs a couple times to go sit by the harbor. Location of hotel is great — right across street from harbor near all restaurants and shops. Room was clean and nice.

We had a great stay at the Bellanca Hotel! The staff was incredibly friendly, helpful, and welcoming from the moment we arrived. Check-in was smooth and quick, and the same goes for check-out—super easy and stress-free. They also allowed us to leave our baggage after checking out so we could continue exploring the island, which was a huge help and made our trip even better! Overall, a great experience and I would definitely stay here again!

Staff were great, a very accommodating. Rooms were small, and room entry was through the sliding glass door, but could be locked with the room key when leaving for the day. Not bad, just different. Proximity to Casino Point was excellent for scuba divers.

Amazing central location, staff was super polite and helpful, the bikes for riding around were great, and the room was nice and cozy. Exactly what to expect on an island vacation, I see other reviews that are a little more particular, and just laugh because they don’t seem like people that are comfortable living the chill Island life and expect everything to be five stars all day. If you understand the island dynamics, what life is like for the amazing locals, and how Catalina has changed so much over the last 25 years, you would be grateful that the opportunity to go visit the silence even exists. We will be back again and again and again to support the local economy and enjoy the jewel that Catalina and Avalon are. Very blessed. Great anniversary celebration.

The room was decent although we seen fingerprints on the shower glass and strands of light brown hair on the bathroom wall but we didn't make a big deal out of it. The bed was comfty and when we needed something staff was quick to help us out! Everybody who worked there were super nice!
