Our friends and us had a lovely time on Catalina Island. Bellanca was at the end of the main street vs the other hotels within the main street above restaurants and shopping areas, this made the hotel quiet and away from hustle and bustle. Everything is within a short few minutes' walk. The main street is along the bay front; The view was spectacular. Our hotel was charming and had a Mediterranean feel. The rooms were clean and fresh, nice amenities, Keurig coffee maker (so nice), the bed was comfortable. Overall, the Bellanca hotel stay was perfect. They had bikes you could use, beach chairs as well. The staff were very friendly. We highly rec. Bellanca Hotel.

We enjoyed our stay at Bellanca Hotel. The room was kept very clean and the housekeeping staff were great to come at a time requested. The entire staff was very friendly and accommodating. We have stayed at this hotel several times going way back to when it was Portifino Hotel. The rooftop patio has been updated and nicely appointed with outdoor furniture. It has to be one of the best ocean front views of any of the hotels. Our Cabana room was a nice surprise being larger, having a small patio and some other extras like a closet and robes. We will definitely go back to Bellanca.

Very clean room and good amenities. They let you borrow their bikes, beach chairs and more. They have a nice bar with great food and drinks. I didn't give them 5 stars because the rooms aren't properly insulated, they are loud. You can hear the sliding doors from other rooms, people walking around on the top rooms, when their shower is running and the carts from the housekeeping staff.

The staff was excellent!! The grout in the bathroom needs to be clean and grout around the shower mildew. The bathroom floor did not look clean. The carpet is worn and felt damp after each shower. Not enough storage. The mattress a little worn.

All hotels in the area similar. Great spot close to the harbor, great rooftop and friendly service, and would recommend. Things that were OK were the bed (2 of us are a combined 290 pounds and the bed drooped), shower (they should replace the old heads or clean them regularly) and air circulation (A/C did work well but you can tell there are circulation issues by looking at wall/ceiling bubbles).

The small rooms were very nice and recently renovated. Very helpful staff. There is a small bar and restaurant on site with limited hours. The location is perfect: walk to everything in Avalon, yet not crowded or noisy. Did not like: the room door is just a glass sliding patio door (not very private). No bedside table lamps. Needs a second luggage rack.
