Definitely, one of the best choices to stay in Santa Catalina. Great hotel with great staff. A very good value for money. The only thing that should be improved is the access to the property, since it is in a very bad shape.

Disliked: Staff & service
I would not recommend this hotel over others in the area. We felt they were overcharging for many amenities over what other hotels charge. And the food was substandard with small proportions. On top of all that the beach fronting the hotel was rocky and unsightly. If you must come to Santa Catalina then another cheaper alternative is the better choice
