Highlights

Location: in the very center of Avalon

Rooms: Ocean View King and Courtyard Double Double

Dining: complimentary continental breakfast

Packages: Beachfront Relaxation Packages

“This hotel's prime location on the main road places guests steps away from Avalon's restaurants and harbor views. While rooms lean toward the smaller side, especially those facing the courtyard, the vintage charm creates an intimate atmosphere, and oceanfront rooms are a definite plus. It's a solid choice for vacationing families seeking a well-situated base to explore Avalon.”
