I personally went and checked out both the Hermosa hotel and the Atwater Hotel. Both are "economy" hotels in fact the Hermosa Hotel's catch phrase is "Sleep Cheap". Hands down the Atwater is a better value. You can still get rooms in the "economy" section of the Atwater for around a $100.00 a night. They have lots available now but you better book soon. The Hermosa has rooms but the rooms have a very "road hard" look. You will not be getting anything like a jacuzzi or any exotic amenities at the Atwater hotel but you will get a good clean room reasonable.

We are working on getting "Ape" to close the evening Saturday night after the Westwind productions dance extravaganza with 48 island dancers. This is gonna be a hoot !! Quiksilver Edition just came on board as a sponsor and we have also secured a raffle give-away of a Hawaiian vacation and dinners at Don the Beachcomber.

I'm here to help any of you that have questions about anything regarding Catalina Island Tikifest. Accommodations, Transportation, vendor space, anything.
