This property has the best staff I’ve ever interacted with….they make it feel like a Bed & Breakfast. I overheard conversations they had amongst themselves and you can tell that the culture they have created is one of family and you can feel that when you stay on this property. We will most certainly stay again….although we will upgrade to a larger room lol! Small room but worth the sacrifice….this property makes you feel at home.

Aurora is a great boutique hotel in Avalon, on beautiful Catalina Island. I was reminded of hotels in European cities. They provided a very nice continental breakfast and on our Friday night visit a wine and cheese happy hour in the lobby. It was great.
