My visit brought me to the island so that I could enjoy riding my mountain bike at the Catalina Gran Fondo, which traversed 55 miles of the island. Yes, buffalo's roam the island as I came across a couple herds, yet if I had to do it again....take the tour. The bus tour also provides views on the other side... More

El Terado Terrace is a delightful hotel off the beaten track, yet a quick walk downhill to all the good things in town. It's particularly nice if you are spending time at the Casino ballroom, it's very close. Big nice room, love the kitchenette, well-equipped. Barbecue use on a pretty little patio. The only reason I wouldn't give the place... More

Stayed there for my birthday for 2 days April 24 thru April 26, beds very comfortable, nice little kitchen with full fridge, full gas stove, plates etc provided etc. Had the corner unit ocean view, one building below should be demolished, but don't look down, just look at the ocean, and yes it was stated on other reviews on a...

I have stayed in several hotels in Avalon, and this was by far the best experience. Rooms are large, comfortable, and clean. Great location and view, and the staff was friendly. For the price, you can't get better on the island.

This is a couple of blocks uphill from town, but it was clean and reasonably priced for a unit with a kitchen. The bed was comfy and the TV worked well. While the place could use a bit of a facelift I felt that it was a very good value. The staff were very courteous.

After reading all the fabulous reviews of ETT on Trip Advisor, we were expecting to be blown away by an amazing experience. Our stay was perfectly fine (hard to complain when you're on vacation in Avalon), but nothing over-the-top. Pros: We got a great rate, especially for being in Catalina; the bed was super comfy; the room was very clean,... More

From the time we booked our reservation until the time we checked out, the El Terado made us feel like family. On the day we were checking in, Ivan (the manager) called us to confirm our reservation and to remind us about the free taxi service to the hotel from the boat terminal. When we got to the hotel Ivan... More

We arrived to find our reservations through Expedia had not made it here. The room we wanted was not available; however, they gave us a smaller room comped for the night! The room was smaller than what we wanted, but clean. In the morning, they still had no larger rooms available and offered us a room at their sister property.... More

This place was rather far from the beach/pier than we expected. And it was on top of a hill practically, so I had to take off my heels and walk barefoot because the incline. BUT the room was EXCELLENT! IT had a fully loaded kitchen with pans, utensils, big fridge, glasses, and granite counter tops! They really made it seem... More
