This place is so clean and beautiful. It feels like home, the moment you walk into it. The staffs are amazing. They are very friendly, welcoming and supportive. The owners took time to make this place unique and comfortable. They carefully thought of the most basic and important needs of mankind and equipped them into their hotel. You will not lack or miss anything, while you are staying here. There are books in the rooms to read, apart from the television. The beds and beddings are very comfortable. The bathroom is very clean. There is always coffee and tea at the Lobby and continental breakfast in the mornings. There is a rooftop terrace with amazing views. Above all, my stay there was awesome.

Beautiful little hotel staff was super friendly very accommodating their little courtyard in the back very cute and quaint great little breakfast options room was very clean. Bathrooms were remodeled and very clean. Our only complaint would probably be some new pillows, and the bed was probably a little too soft for our liking other than that I would definitely still stay there again.

From the moment we arrived there was always someone at the front desk with a smile and a friendly chat! The room was fantastic with very soft beds and huge bathroom! We especially loved the lighted mirror and huge tub! Would highly recommend the Avalon Hotel to everyone!

I book with Avalon Hotel to celebrate my fiancé s 60th birthday. The began communication with me right after booking. We arrived early and room was ready. They provided a nice bottle of sparkling champagne and a personalized card for my fiancé. Hotel and accommodation were perfect, clean and cozy. Breakfast was light and refreshing. Hotel was quiet and you could not hear guests and staff coming and going. We will definitely book with Avalon Hotel every time we go to the island.

We were on the 3rd floor. There was considerable noise from the air conditioning unit on the roof. It cycled on and off all night long making difficult to sleep.

Construction going on was loud during the day, so it wasn't ideal but not too annoying. Balcony was big and ha good seating but ocean view was limited. Included breakfast was outstanding.
