We were blessed by family and friends with a mini vacation to Catalina and we got to stay at Seaport Village. The room was very spacious, clean, conveniently located near many amenities. The staff are wonderful and friendly. If you go to Avalon for fun or business, this is a place you would want to stay.

Convenient Location, but Needs a Facelift
We stayed at the Seaport Village Inn in Avalon for one night over the busy annual half marathon/Veteran's Day weekend, paying around $452 total.
The hotel's location is fantastic—everything in town is within walking distance. The staff was incredibly nice and welcoming. A big plus: they stored our luggage for free before check-in, allowing us to head straight to our reserved lounge chairs at Descanso Beach Club.
Overall, the stay was fine, but the hotel is pretty run-down and definitely needs a facelift. Our room was spacious and had great views of the port, but the furnishings are dated and could use an upgrade. We had a mini fridge, microwave, coffee maker, TV, and a seating area, but essential amenities like a hair dryer and an iron were missing from the room.
It’s an okay spot if you’re just in town for a night and prioritize location and views over modern comforts.

If I could give 0 stars I would. The photos on the website look good but the Deluxe queen partial view room was horrible. This is practically a Motel. Paint falling off the walls, power sockets won’t hold a single charger, nasty carpet, wood peeling from the desk etc. spend the extra $ and stay in a good hotel near the beach. Don’t make my mistake.

Awful room as you can see by the pictures I posted. Check in was at 4pm, but arrived early hoping for early check in which was not available. Had no problem with that. We were able to check our bags in and were told that once back, our room would be ready so we went out to kill some time. We had lunch and did some window shopping. Arrived back at the hotel and the room was not ready and took an extra half hour to get our room which was disgusting. Water damage on the ceiling; cracked and chipped walls; damaged baseboards; ripped carpet; and the furniture is in definite need of washing or replacement altogether. We were afraid to set our bags down anywhere. We started looking for another hotel, but wanted to ask what the cancellation policy was but were told we needed to go through Hotels.com where we booked the room from. The manager let us see another room which wasn’t all that much better. Had the same deficiencies as the first room, but decided to stay. My wife always packs extra sheets and we used those to cover the provided bedding. I went to make a coffee and when I opened it up, there was a used bag that had been sitting in there for who knows how long. Definitely had not been cleaned. There are visible signs of termite damage all over the property. There was no hot running water on Saturday morning. Some of the nicer pictures that have been posted here must be of the one room that is remodeled and they use to lure people in.
