Property Description
We are Catalina Island's friendly, economy hotel located in the heart of Avalon, just a short 10-15 minute walk from the boat landing. The Historic Hermosa has been serving guests of the island since 1896 and our rooms are still small and simple. No fancy amenities, but most of our rooms now have air conditioning and heating. We have lots of character, as part of the charm of our 100+ year-old building is its “Catalina Funkiness.”Our friendly, active staff enjoys all the island has to offer and we will get all you adventure-seekers dialed in with our “locals scoop” to make sure you have the most fun possible during your island visit!All Cottages all have private bathrooms, AC/heat and most have kitchenettes. The Hotel portion of The Historic Hermosa Hotel (circa 1896) has Combo Rooms located on the second and third floors of our historic hotel building. With three or four beds, two TVs, and an adjoining bathroom between them, these are like getting two rooms for one. These are the only rooms without AC/heat. All rooms have color TVs with cable.
