My wife and I were visiting Catalina for our anniversary. We stayed in the larger king room with couch and fireplace. The room was clean and comfortable. No view from that room but the hotel is in a great location in Catalina and has a very nice rooftop patio. The staff was very friendly, helpful, and polite. The room had... More

We were able to obtain a courtyard room upon a last minute decision to visit Catalina Island. The room was very comfortable, but had no view. The hotel fitted our needs perfectly. It was within walking distance of the ferry and restaurants. It had a fabulous sundeck overlooking the harbor. Relaxing! The continental breakfast was sufficient, and eaten on the... More

After doing extensive online research, I believe this hotel is the best option for those looking for great value without sacrificing quality. The sun deck was amazing, the staff was very polite, the room was clean and comfortable and the location couldn't be beat. They even let us check in to our room 4 hours early because it was ready...

I've been in California for 20 years and wish I had made this trip years ago. I suprised my wife for our 20th wedding anniversary and she absolutely loved it. The hotel stay was outstanding! I would recommend the Villa Portofino to my family and friends. Again thank you for making our 20th anniversary totally awesome! More

We had a wonderful weekend in Catalina and loved this hotel.

I would recommend that they improve the kitchen. I would surely return to the hotel but not necessarily... More

This was a great hotel - staff were friendly, quick to make up rooms and very informative. While we were there the weather conditions cancelled the ferries and the staff were all really reassuring and nice. (FYI, 50% off rooms if you're stranded on the island.) Also, unlike many other hotels I've stayed at, they seemed to genuinely want to... More

We (4 couples) had such a good time. We did our own thing during the day and then got together for a happy hour on the deck of the hotel (which faces the water) then went to dinner. We stayed two nights and we are talking about doing it again. 3 couples are from Palm Springs, Ca and the fourth... More

We've been coming out to Catalina Island for many years, have stayed at numerous hotels but Villa Portofino is our favorite. Warm & helpful staff, comfy rooms great location and the sundeck on top of the hotel has the best view of the bay, Casino, Wrigley Mansion and town - no other hotel offers that. A wonderful bottle of champagne... More
