Clean, comfy, and peaceful!

The stay was amazing! The courtside rooms were peaceful and beautiful! The Naughty fox had amazing food and it was nice to be able to bring the food back to our rooms and enjoy it in the comfort of our hotel room. Staff were friendly and helpful in every aspect of our stay! They helped us with our bicycle rental and were accommodating to keeping our luggage while we went to church despite us being 3 hours early for check in.

I liked the location of the hotel. Avalon is very small so everything is walkable. This hotel is on the farther end away from the cruise ship disembarkation area which made it less crowded. The best time is after all the cruise ship people leave around 4pm and the town is quiet again.

Property can have your bags sent over to where the ferry is so you don’t have to walk around with them til the ferry arrives.

I felt that for the price that we paid for the property. All of the staff was great. The price did not reflect the product very very expensive for some areas that were not clean like the rooftop and limited older looking rooms and some worn down paint and areas I did love that they were able to provide us with chairs bikes, and other amenities that we could take to the beach. The bar was great and the staff at the bar was really good.

The perfect location! Very simple rooms in a very convenient spot. The entrance to some of the rooms is a sliding glass door that faces the main courtyard. Unfortunately if anyone speaks or breaths in the courtyard they feel like they are in your room. Good AC, small shower, clean rooms with comfy beds.

This was my first time going to Catalina. Normally I don’t spend $500-600 per night on a hotel, unless I’m staying at the Westin in Maui. This is a very cute, clean, boutique style hotel, but I feel like it was too expensive for what we got. The positives about this hotel are that it’s right across the street from the water, has a cute rooftop deck, offers beach chairs, and beach cruiser bicycles, and the bed and pillows were some of the most comfortable I’ve ever slept on. The downside is that there’s no soundproofing whatsoever so you can hear every noise from your neighbor flushing, their toilet to kids stomping up and down the stairs at all hours and running around and yelling and screaming. The good news is that everybody seemed to respectfully observe quiet hours from 10 PM to 8 AM. The hotel restaurant has good food. I had the crabcake eggs Benedict and they were some of the best crabcakes I’ve ever had. The first day our female server was phenomenal. The second day our male server wasn’t too great. The bartenders are smug and unfriendly, so I only went to the bar one time and went elsewhere the rest of the time. The front desk staff is easily accessible, helpful and friendly. If it were $350 per night, I would definitely return to this hotel but I don’t think I would stay here again if it were above that price point. I’d rather stay somewhere with soundproof rooms or a private condo that comes with a golf cart.

Found hairs in restrooms toilet was not cleaned well. Shower tiles grout and seal of areas were yellowed and exposed cracks. Maybe lazy cleaning crew not sure. Drywall cracks that should be fixed. Room 107. The coffee pod are no good and a bit old maybe. The should try Pete’s Major Dickason’s blend.

We enjoyed our stay at the Blanca. It was very convenient to all of the activities that I wanted to participate in. The air conditioner worked great, and our stay was quite comfortable.
