I have stayed at many different hotels and inns and have never experienced such amazing and outstanding hospitality. The front desk people were so accommodating and kind. They let my group check in 4 hours early and held our luggage for us until our ship departure. I highly highly recommend staying here. It was such an amazing experience.

This is a humble place if you are used to Vegas style or Resort style accommodations, but for Catalina, for the price, this was lovely. The staff was amazing, helpful, and accommodating, the rooms were clean and well maintained. This is part of the Catalina charm, most accommodation is more like staying in a room in a home, than a hotel stay. As long as you know what to expect, this met and surpassed.

Room was nice, staff was nice, great location, rooftop was awesome. Only drawback was the loudness of the constant golf carts driving by, however that applies to pretty much any where you stay on the island

I had a really nice stay at Seacrest Inn. The room was clean, comfortable, and had a peaceful vibe that made it easy to relax. The air conditioning worked well, and everything felt well-maintained. One of my favorite parts was the rooftop—the view is amazing and you can see the beach area, which made it such a nice spot to unwind and take everything in. The location is also a big plus, being so close to the beach and easy to get around. The staff was friendly and welcoming, and check-in/check-out was smooth. Overall, I enjoyed my stay and would definitely come back.

The Seacrest Inn is an adorable hotel in Avalon. It’s a short walk from the ferry terminal and close to many restaurants in town. This historical hotel is very well maintained. The room was more spacious than we had anticipated and even had a small refrigerator and microwave. The shower and bathtub set up was unique, but we considered this part of the rooms charm. The rooftop provides great views of Avalon and the harbor - grab a bottle of wine and enjoy the sunset here!

It was a clean room & centrally located. The bed was very hard & the pillows very stiff. Small space but doable since only sleeping & bathing there.
