Catalina Island Company: hotels, restaurants and experiences on Santa Catalina

Catalina Island Company presents itself as a comprehensive gateway to Santa Catalina Island, with its own portfolio of accommodations, restaurants and tourism services. The company brings together four hotels, a selection of dining venues and leisure offerings both on land and at sea, as well as packages and special offers to plan your stay.

Accommodation: four hotels with distinct profiles

The hotel offering is spread between Avalon and Two Harbors. In Avalon are Mt Ada, perched high above Avalon Bay; Hotel Atwater, in the heart of town; and Pavilion Hotel, steps from the beach. In Two Harbors operates Banning House Lodge & Villas, a historic Craftsman-style bed & breakfast. Each property offers a different experience on the island.

Dining in Avalon and Two Harbors

The company brings together several dining venues. In Avalon, Descanso Beach Club serves signature bites and classic cocktails in a beachfront setting just past the Catalina Casino. Avalon Grille features California coastal cuisine with a selection of wines and cocktails near the bay. The Bistro at the Atwater serves coffee, latte and pastries in the morning. Pier 24 is the newest restaurant on the Avalon waterfront. Flx Biergarten is presented as the island's first and only biergarten, located in Avalon. In Two Harbors, Harbor Reef Restaurant hosts events such as the Thanksgiving buffet.

Packages and stay offers

The site details several accommodation options. The Romance Package is aimed at couples' getaways. The third night complimentary offer allows you to book two nights at Hotel Atwater, Pavilion Hotel or Mt Ada and get the third night free. Packages are also offered that combine accommodation in Avalon or at Banning House Lodge with the Catalina Express ferry crossing, so visitors can create their own experience.

Activities, beach and access

The company sells activities on the island and facilitates planning through full-service concierges, who recommend and arrange land and sea experiences. For beach relaxation, Descanso Beach Club has luxury cabanas and a casual Mediterranean-style restaurant-bar, while Harbor Sands, in Two Harbors, offers rustic-style furnished palapas, suitable for both small groups and couples. The company also provides information on ways to get to the island, including ferry, private boat charter and private plane.

The published schedule includes Buccaneer Days, with live music, and the Thanksgiving buffet at Harbor Reef Restaurant, scheduled for November 26, 2026 between 2:00 p.m. and 7:00 p.m. in Two Harbors.
