We're looking for a romantic, clean, modern (decor), hotel. I've been checking out reviews of different hotels and it's just throwing me off more. From what I can tell, it's mostly about the views and balconies. The better the view, the more expensive the room. It would be nice to have a great view, but I'm not paying an extra 2-300 dollars for that. My husband likes 5 stars only, I'm a little more flexible. I haven't found any true 5 stars listed but I've narrowed it down to Hotel Metropole - which is a little pricey, or the Pavilion Lodge. Are there any others that I may be overlooking? Any other info. about Catalina would be great also.

Yeh I know what you mean, they don't have hotels like most places. It sometimes seems like it is mandatory B+B's for the most part. The Metropole is good. Not sure that the Pavilion is right in town. There are no "brand name" hotels like you may be used to. Check with Chamber of Commerce website, I think they have a "ROMANTIC GETAWAY" special going on right now with free massages and stuff.. They frequently have evening concerts and things...Rent a golf cart to get around --It's a blast---Have Fun..

I was just there in Jan. - The Snug Harbor Inn is awesome!

also, check out trip advisor on Avalon -
It lists the Avalon Hotel as a top choice, and the Inn on Mt. Ada B&B is the former Wrigley Mansion. Also take a look at Hotel Villa Portofino - it's very nice too and cheaper and has a great Italian restaurant

I stayed at the Glenmore Plaza and loved it! I highly recommend it. http://www.glenmoreplaza.com/
I was also pleasantly suprised with the afforable rates for this hotel - and wish ocean views!
Be sure to Kayak around Avalon Bay, go inside the submarines in the bay and feed the fish, enjoy peel n eat shrimp and the best ice cream by the beach, horse back ride in the mountains, and take the tram tour. Enjoy! I love Catalina!
