Avila Beach Hotel

An enduring favorite, this property is laid out among various building styles, including the blues-theme guest units directly on the oceanfront. The condo-style units are ideal for long-term guests. The jewel in the crown of this hotel is the Octagon Wing with its contemporary design motif. However, it's the Bolivar Suite that appeals to the most discriminating traveler. Also, on site is a museum housed in the converted home of Simon Bolivar, liberator of South America. Happy hour at the beach bar is a popular gathering spot to watch sunsets. The various theme nights attract a lot of guests to imbibe, dine and dance. The pool bar is open Friday through Sunday. Smoke free premises. 157 units, some two bedrooms, three bedrooms, efficiencies and kitchens. 2-4 stories (no elevator), interior/exterior corridors.
