Guest Reviews
We had a beautiful ocean view and a private balcony to enjoy the fresh ocean breeze. The room was impeccably clean. We had a restful and relaxing stay at this hotel.

I highly recommend this beautiful hotel.

We had such a wonderful stay at the Avalon Hotel. Evelyn and the whole staff were so friendly and helpful. Great location, comfy rooms. The package including ferry and taxi was so adorable. Nice breakfast and we appreciated all day fresh fruit and coffee. Will definitely return!
