Descanso Beach Club

Fun place to hang out with a lot of activities. A bar A big ground where a wedding was taking place. Clean rest rooms loungers Clean beach and a lot of people enjoying voters in serenity. Also a deer happened to come and became another attraction. Will reach it late and still enjoyed all the facilities at this magnificent club. A great place to be in Vince, you're never on. It's a little ahead of the tuna club. Number hundred, and both the walk on.This island for the scenic beauty.

Had a great birthday day trip to Avalon-Catalina Island, Descanso Beach Club is a must visit- a cozy small beach that you can do swimming, Kayaking, snorkeling, or just relaxing in a tropical setting. Bring your own beach chairs or rent a cabana. Good choices on drinks, foods. Clean restrooms and onsite showers.

Fake euro summer. This beach club rivals some of the beach clubs I’ve been to in the French Riviera. The service is awesome and friendly, the chaises are pretty big and the water is beautiful. They even have the rocky beaches like in Europe 😂 the public beach gets packed so it’s nice to have your own space and the option of shade under your own umbrella. The chairs are pretty well spaced out as well. The one difference between this beach club and European ones is the obnoxious music the DJ plays when she comes out at 1pm. Somehow he fits 3 songs into 1 min. I would choose any random wedding DJ over this guy. If you get to the beach club when they open at 10am, you’ll have a few hours of serenity and very few beachgoers. Oh the food and drinks are good too and very reasonably priced. Just go! It’s worth it

Such a nice place to stop and eat on the island. Good service, good food. Is near the water and I'm thinking you can rent chairs and eat on the beach if you want. Not sure so don't quote me on that. I ordered the Peruvian Ceviche, delicious!! I highly recommend it. It has a little kick so if you can't eat spicy, don't order this. The sword dish sandwich was also tasty. Never had sword fish. It was good. I highly recommend to come and enjoy the food and view at Descanso Beach Club.

We spent an entire afternoon, relaxing here and taking in the views. It truly feels like you’re on a Caribbean island with the amazing music playing. Danny was our server and he was so lovely and personable. He proactively asked us if we wanted to take pictures which was so thoughtful. The drinks were strong but pretty expensive. We had the lettuce wraps which were so flavorful. I also had the fish sandwich and it was so fresh! They have cabanas and beach chairs available to rent for the day, but they are quite expensive. It’s free to lay on the beach if you bring your own towel. The water was super clear and we saw several bright orange Garibaldi fish. We went in March and it was a pretty calm vibe and not too crowded. However, I think it turns into a party destination with the DJ in the summer. So it depends on what kind of vibe you’re looking for.

Legitimately some of the worst food on Catalina Island. For the price, I would expect the lettuce that was provided for me to assemble my own chicken wraps would be washed. Chicken was borderline inedible, tasted like dog food. Wings were frozen and tasted like cardboard. Told them my boyfriend was severely allergic to nuts and they served him the walnut dressing anyways. 0/10.

My favorite part of my trip to Catalina, absolutely. Beach Clubs like this one offer unparalleled convenience and relaxation. These are getting hard to find, especially in the United States. Everything was excellent, including the food and services. Drinks were delicious although a little on the weak side.

One of the highlights of the island. It’s a private beach club, but it’s open to the public. The prices are very reasonable.

Descanso Beach Club in Catalina Island is amazing. Great food, incredible drinks, and the view is absolutely spectacular. There's no better place to chill and relax on the island. It really makes you feel like you're in a different country while still being in California. If you're visiting Catalina, this is the place to go. - Check my drone video until the end!! That was a nice shot showing the Catalina Casino.

If you are debating reserving a pair of beach chairs on your next Catalina trip, my review is that they are worth it! And book early - we saw several people get turned away day-of because all of the spots were sold out. Ambiance 5/5: It was perfect to be right next to water and watch boats sail by; a highlight of the trip. One downside was the amount of bees in the area. They would fly into our drinks, land on our food, and hover around us as we were trying to relax. Unfortunately, I'm not sure if there is anything the beach club can do to minimize this, but it was bothersome. Food 4/5: The ceviche ($25) was delicious and tasted very fresh. They did not skimp on the chips either! The burger ($19) was also satisfying. I would've liked if the drinks/food costs were credited towards the chair reservation, since that itself was pretty pricey. Unfortunately, the Virgin Strawberry Mojito ($9) was not good. A faint strawberry taste in soda water. Definitely regretted getting this. Service 3/5: When we arrived early in the day (11am), our waiter was extremely attentive, stopping by every 20 minutes or so. However, once more chairs began to fill up (12pm), we had to hunt him down whenever we wanted to order a drink, or needed our umbrella adjusted. Most, if not all, of the umbrellas are missing the stick to make it stay up, so you really do need the help of a staff member because they know a particular way to tie it so it stays up.

come here every year and reserve the beach chaises, and it's worth it every time. They provide towels, tableside service, an umbrella & water. The food and drinks are so good. The DBC ASADA NACHOS, PACIFIC OYSTERS, a piña colada, & margarita are always our go to's. You really can't get better than this - definitely worth it for anyone who wants a day with good food & direct beach access.

This beach club is a must stop for us during summer times. We hung out at the bar and lounge area for a couple hours this time. They had DJ spinning mostly old school and early 2000 hip hop songs. The food menu has gotten better and bigger, it used to be very limited. They make very good Bloody Mary and michelada, Buffalo milk is very tasty too. They have full service for the tables near the beach. But other seatings are on first come and first serve bases. People just order at the bar and get everything by themselves when they are ready. The beaches next to the ocean are all public access, remember there are no private beaches in California. Beach club lounge chairs and cabanas are in the back for renting. They also rent out floats and beach chairs. The summer send off Hawaiian themed dinner was nice, they served fresh cut tuna and grilled sword fish on the beach. Hawaiian hula dancing was so much fun to watch. This is a fantastic place to hang out with a lively atmosphere. It's fun either you rent cabana / lounge chairs or just hang out for an hour or two. The ocean views are the best!

Nice place to be on a nice sunny day and lay on the beach with great drinks and some good food.. my waitress was amazing she made sure we had a good time

We had heard some hit & miss reviews from locals, but we had a free birthday cocktail and hotel credit to redeem, so we took a nice 10-minute walk there from Hotel Atwater. We were the first food patrons of the day, and our food and my Bloody Mary came out quickly. This restaurant definitely knows how to prepare and serve fried goodness. My BF's fish and chips and both of our servings of fence fries were crispy and tasty. My hamburger patty was prepared very well - just a smidge below medium. Also, you can't beat the view.

I was here for the view. Ive was here on my last trips here and I rembered sitting looking at the picturesque views of the water and boats so I came back. Unlike the last time it was very busy so service was a little slow. I wished they had a little more items on the menu but in the end I settled for the burger and fries. It wasnt horrible. Id come back just for the view.

So expensive, but the best food and drink I had on the island. For 2 drinks and a split entree it came out to ~$63. Nice beach and cabanas for rent. I didn't check how much but I'm sure they are crazy expensive. Might be worth it if you have a group though.

Beautiful beach club getaway! I wish we were able to book one of the loungers but tip - you gotta do that way in advance! Loved the accessibility of the restrooms, showers, floaty stores and within walking distance from the express. We sat at the bar first for drinks - strong and delicious and loved it. First come, first served but even on a holiday weekend didn't have a problem. Service is a little slow but that's totally fine as this was our main plan. Only reason this is 4 stars is because the orange chicken wings are actually terrible, they're cold, not the expected flavor and just bland and I would like to politely recommend them removing it from the menu. It actually disuaded us from ordering more food. Otherwise, excellent drinks and vibes and I hope to come again with a big party and take advantage of the cabana :)

Spent the day here in a cabana with my girls. We're pretty easy to please when it comes to a beach day. Views, vibes, good food and drinks. Descanso definitely passed the vibe check. We loved our cabana that came with 2 chairs on the exterior... the section was just beautiful and felt like vacation. We didn't know our view would be obstructed by a huge tree when we reserved the cabana, but we still enjoyed it. The beach was beautiful and it was super hot that day, but still had fun. The food and drinks were somewhere underwhelming. For such a beautiful space and set up, we simply expected more. It wasn't terrible, but it was pretty mediocre. The free smoothies they provided tasted more like daiquiri mix and not a fresh fruit smoothie? We were a little confused by the taste. The drinks were ok. Serviced was amazing though! Angel was attentive and really kind. Overall, we'll certainly be back to enjoy the beach, but will likely have food and drinks elsewhere.

The location is absolutely beautiful. The drinks, the food, everything is perfect. Everything is delicious and the daiquiris really stole the show. The pina colada was heavenly too. The toasted coconut was an excellent touch. However, service takes so long to get your order and to check in on you, wish they were more attentive to that. Needless to say, I would be back!

Descanso club is a total VIBE. It's perfectly lazy and sits beautifully on the water. I loved the ceviche but I wish it had more fish. It's like 90% chip. ...I do wish they'd offer better menu options and improve on the portions. I found them to be a bit skimpy on the appetizers when it came to portioning. Service is killer. I had a young man serve my friends and family and honestly nobody was mad about it. He was friendly, attentive and a LOCAL. Love when things are local. Wish the cabana rental funds went towards the tab because it's VERY price but honestly worth considering how packed the sitting areas are.

Amazing service. We were taken to our lounge chairs and were greeted with 2 delicious mini smoothies and water bottles. The lounge chairs are super comfy and come with a towel and umbrella for shade. Shout out to our personal attendant Justice he was down to earth, attentive and gave us drink suggestions. Food came out quick and was delicious and the drinks are dangerously good. We tried 3 different ones each. I personally ordered the cabana colada (hands down my favorite w/ the sprinkles of toasted coconut), the coconut margarita (could use a little more coconut flavor but refreshing) and the buffalo milk (I disliked the nutmeg but overall good, almost like an ice cream drink) Views were beautiful, the water can get choppy after lunch as the wind picked up but then the wind stopped around 3ish and wowza did it get hot! So ask your attendant to open up that umbrella for you. The beach set up is sand but to go into the water you definitely need watershoes as there are lots of rocks but the water is on the warmer side and felt great. There are bathrooms, changing rooms and outdoor rinse stations near by. I wish they had music going on on the beach side (they had it in the restaurant). Either a dj or some speakers would have made it more lively. It doesn't have to be obnoxious as you can still rest and/or have some fun dancing in the water. Great experience overall and will definitely be back.

Honestly if this place didn't exist I would have no reason to come back to Catalina. This was the bomb. The food was amazing and I have no complaints. It's super chill and a beautiful place to lounge. They also have the best nachos I have possibly ever had. The steak was soft and not chewy and had amazing flavor. The staff was polite and on their game both days.

Service and food were awesome. Chairs were ok. But they need new towels and mattresses. If you expect a locker room, there isn't one. You can take a cold shower to rinse off sand. But, I wanted a good shower before we went to dinner. And they don't have that there. No soap or hairdryers either. Which was very disappointing as I paid the same amount for a hotel room for 5 hours at a beach club. Also, there is no sand. All rocks. Very dangerous getting in and out of water for someone older with less balance. They really need to spruce up the place in order to meet their price point.

Had just the best time here the other day. Didn't know about the reservation system (or really anything about the DC) so in the morning they were full and we rented another set of chairs near the outdoor dining area. Awesome service and views, just not as comfy. I checked in with the other section later and a set of lounges had become available and they were kind enough to let us switch over without an upgrade fee. I found the food and drink servers to be better than many high end resorts we've been to. Nice and incredibly attentive. I recommend their chicken lettuce wraps- 10/10! And drinks were as well. Will definitely go back and will book in advance!

I absolutely loved this beach club!! Made reservations well in advance since we went Memorial Day weekend. Was able to snag 3rd row from the beach. Service was excellent since our waiter was efficient and always checking in on us. DJ played music from 1-5pm which set great vibes! Ordered the tuna bowl and it was perfect for the beach! I highly recommend to come and spend a day here!

This is the high point of our trip. You should definitely make a reservation for beach chairs overlooking the ocean. They serve food and drinks so get ready to have fun and enjoy Catalina! Our waiter is very accommodating and loves his job serving beach side. The guacamole was good and the chips are greasy so I used a fork. I'm drinking a Bloody Mary and enjoying sitting under my umbrella on this gorgeous 90 degree day on 9/4/24!

The vibe at the bar is lively. The best drink here is the spicy margarita. There are a bunch of people here always and our server was attentive and would check in. This is definitely a spot I would come back to next time I visit Catalina!

This was our 2nd visit to Descanso and definitely not our last! We first visited in July of 2023 and opted for the double chaise lounge rental. We enjoyed the entire day lounging and being served amazing food and beverages! We are back again, this time October 2024. We rented a cabana, number 2. Our service was great! Food selection had just changed, compared to their summer menu. Wish there were a few more options of appetizers, but chips were good, burger and fries were good. We arrived by boat on a Friday around 11:15am, took a taxi to Descanso, stored our luggage inside the cabana, and enjoyed the beach, food and drinks all day while we waited to check into our rental house at 4pm. There are outdoor private changing rooms and indoor restrooms a short walk away if you need to change. Highly recommend coming here. Prices are totally worth it! We always end up falling asleep in the afternoon it's so relaxing! Also, if you have an elderly family member like we did traveling with us; there is a walking path behind the cabanas that they can use instead of walking across the sand!

Yes renting a pair of beach chairs at Descanso is really steep. Is it worth it? Absolutely. I'm really glad we did bc after checking out the little shops on Catalina, there's really nothing much to do after besides enjoy the beach. Why not do it with tasty drinks in a comfy lounger in the shade? For $130 we got a pair of beach loungers, an umbrella, complementary waters, towels, and a server (who by the way, was excellent and very attentive). You have the rental from 10am-5pm. We got there a little after 12pm and it was all ready for us. You also get access to their bathrooms, showers and changing rooms. There is another area of the beach that doesn't require you to purchase lounge chairs but I believe it's $2pp to access. The beach here is pretty rocky so pro tip: wear water shoes. We had such a relaxing time here, we did not regret it one bit.

Great place to disconnect and enjoy a drink. We ordered their signature drink which was the Buffalo Milk & a Pina Colada. Both drinks were very generous in alcohol. At $16 a drink, the alcohol better be flowing. We loved the Buffalo Milk and we didn't care too much for the Pina Colada. I loved sitting on the deck, viewing the ocean. The ambiance alone is worth a visit.

I've been to Catalina a couple of times and this is the first I've headed to Decanso Beach. It's going to be a must especially their Original Buffalo Milk Drink :) Seating area is great it's a public private beach so you can enjoy the beach and only pay if you want to rent the beach chairs. We sat at a table by the bar and were promptly attended to. It was nice to have a drink and be able to walk to the water. They also have bathrooms and dressing rooms that were cleaner than some at the other side of the beach. We enjoyed our time relaxing and having some tasty drinks.

I'm here for the Fourth of July. So crowded that day and we can't get the chairs but we have enjoyed the environment.

Make sure to book a set of chaise lounge chairs on the beach at Descanso Beach Club. They have waiters that come around and take your order for drinks and food. I tried the spicy pinapple margarita which I loved! I also tried an island staple which is their Buffalo Milk. It comes with ice cream, coffee liqueur, vodka and banana. It was veryyyy rich but extremely good! The oysters were good, very fresh. They had many other items to choose from that looked delicious as well. Perfect place to experience a beautiful beach and good food and drinks. I was living the life on the beach here.

I generally don't leave negative reviews however this experience was completely negative We entered the beach area with no one to explain how any of the pricing worked I asked an employee if any of the cabanas were available and was told they were all booked but the general beach area was first come first served, I was charged $40 for 2 drinks and then told I was being charged $50 for 2 beach chairs that you couldn't get $40 for at a yard sale The beach was rocky with no reasonable way to access, I could not get out of there quickly enough

Descanso Beach was a major highlight of our trip to Catalina. We booked two ocean front lounge chairs two months in advance because they sell out quickly, especially during summer weekends and when cruise ships dock for the day. There were 3 in our party, so my husband just relaxed in the sand between the chairs. I'm glad we had an umbrella because the sun hits directly on this beach, and although it was only 73° that day, we burned quickly. We received complimentary smoothies and cold bottles of water upon arrival. Our server Lisette was awesome and checked in on us often. The Mai Tais hit the spot, as did the coconut shrimp tacos. The vibe was enhanced by a really terrific live band that began playing right on the beach around noon on a Sunday. The shore is extremely rocky, so bring water shoes. Although the water temperature took some getting used to, it felt refreshing on a hot summer day. Bring your goggles too! Numerous fish can be found hanging around the kelp just a few feet from the shore. The waves were calm and gentle, and the water was clean and clear. Bathrooms were ample and clean, and outdoor showers were on the property. The bar area was really crowded and rowdy. Our final bill was $170 plus tip for 6 cocktails and two meals. Since we stayed at The Pavilion, a partner hotel, we charged to our room to take advantage of the daily dining credit, so we really ended up paying $150. The cost was 100% worth a day of fun in the sun on Descanso Beach. It's definitely a must do while in Catalina. I can't wait to return again soon!

We're back on island time and as always a pleasant time people watching and having a few drinks.

Roberto was so awesome and took really great care of us for my friends birthday . The service was really great as well from Danny b Roberto was the star of the show , would come back again just because of him . The Cabanas are so nice and the beach is really pretty as well. Drinks and food are 10/10 Definitely worth spending your day here with the wonderful staff !!

Note: I went here during the off-season so I can't vouch for the $2 fee. This beach club is very beautiful with access to a clean beach with calm little waves. I went on a perfect day, it was a little windy but not too hot and not too cold. We walked into the seating area where we were greeted with a menu and a friendly server named Pablo. We automatically went for the drinks - The Original Buffalo Milk - (10/10) this exclusive Catalina Island drink is a must try when visiting. It comes with Creme de cacao, banana liqueur, vanilla ice cream, nutmeg, banana chips, and Tito's vodka (this alone was what made me want to try this). It is on the sweeter side, but beauty of this drink makes people turn heads and ask the bartender "what drink does she have?" - strawberry margarita with patron silver - (11/10) I just want to thank the bartender for being ever so generous and giving my mom an excellent pour of the patron. You are an angel on this earth. She left that restaurant all happy. For the food: - DBC burger: (8/10) - this cheeseburger was delicious and the fries were alright, my only downsides were that the lettuce and pickles were on the side, and that it was a little red in a certain spot and not well done. But to be fair, I don't remember if I asked for it well done - so that's on me, so hence the 8/10. - burrito (10/10) it was surprisingly very filling, my mom loved it. I didn't get a chance to rent a cabana only because we didn't see the point - we were only going to be there for a little while so we spent most of the time exploring but on our next visit we'll be sure to check it out and give an update review. Overall this is the perfect place to chill during the off-season. its not as crowded as the main area and its away from most of the tourists.

I can't say enough about this little Catalina beach club. The drinks were great and the vibe was very fun. Even for a Monday. It wasn't completely dead, which is kind of what I was expecting. The food also is worth trying the staff. we're all very nice and answered all of our questions about the menu and gave us some fun facts about Catalina as well. I was here with my family visiting from out of town so the Catalina trivia was a great touch. Thanks to the staff for giving them a great experience and making them feel welcome!

Brought a few friends here who were visiting from Hawai'i for a day trip! Isn't day drinking the best when you're surrounded by the ocean and a good company? We initially had only intended to have a few drinks to pass some time but decided to get bottle service because VACATION. The prices here were about how much you'd expect to pay and still definitely more affordable than most clubs. We were dangerously getting close to getting a clase azul bottle but decided to be responsible adults and got Milagros Silver instead. Between four adults, we had one bottle which I was surprised to see was the 1L size versus the usual 720mL bottles. Safe to say, we had a decent buzz going. Also, the blood orange mixer they make is also so delicious! I can't recommend the blood orange margarita enough! For the food, we had a variety of different bites but I was really impressed with the flavor of the poke bowl. Coming from Hawai'i, I am extremely picky when it comes to poke but the fish here tasted fresh instead of frozen and was marinated very well without being overly salty! I would say I'd like a little more fish portion-wise, but the poke bowl definitely hit the spot so we had no qualms ordering another. Despite our cabana being closer inland, the service was quick and attentive and the food and drinks came out in a timely manner. My friends and I had a great time and I look forward to visiting again with more friends soon!

Beach front dining and ample shade are a great addition to any trip. It's a great place to take a break from activities and just relax by the water. The seating is first come first serve and we were helped very soon after we sat down. The drinks are fairly strong and are priced about the same as any bar on the mainland. The drinks that we got had the potential to taste very artificial, but these were surprisingly natural. They tasted like the real fruits and were very enjoyable. The food is a little bit underwhelming for the price, but you're also paying for the location and the experience.

Wonderful. Very comfortable beach chairs that come with quality beach towels. A quality umbrella that shaded both of our chairs when desired. Service could have been no better. Mitchel was an excellent server. Will come back again and again. We hope Mitchel is our server every time.

Descanso Beach Club is one of the best restaurants to visit on a trip to Catalina. The atmosphere can't be beat, with seating right along the beach and excellent views of the ocean. The service here is quick and friendly, and while the drink prices are a little high, it's well worth the price for the vibe. I ordered the burger and it was a little overcooked. But there are plenty of other tasty menu items (highly recommend the swordfish sandwich!). They do sometimes host private events which results in early closing times. It's a good idea to check in with the staff ahead of time to make sure!

We rented cabana chairs for the day. The weather was perfect and our sever Mitchel was fantastic! He went above and beyond in service. He was very friendly and professional. The beach is rocky so prepare for that, but the food and drinks were phenomenal. They were so accommodating and made sure we had the best day. The have very clean bathrooms and you can purchase floaties to float in bay!

Sushi bowl was the perfect light lunch to have at the beach. Service was top notch. DBC is a must when in town!

We came here to celebrate our friends 40th birthday yesterday and had the best time. Our server Allen absolutely made the entire day so much better. He was so friendly and always had a smile on his face! The drinks and food were fantastic! Will hopefully be able to come back soon!

We got a cabana for the day and Mitchel was so so nice and attentive! We felt so relaxed and taken care of. The asada nachos and Peruvian ceviche were very good, and the drinks were nonstop. 10/10 would come back

Had an upsetting experience with the bartender named JOSE OCTAVIO. Upon requesting a drink he stated that "you look too dark in your ID picture" and that he wasn't going to serve me. This was pretty upsetting because that's literally my skin tone and it's a little racist too. I returned a couple of minutes later to ask for his name and he was smirking looking at other workers and said "I don't give a fu*k" to them laughing as if he knew I was going to make a complain about him. Other customers said to me that he's the one that turns people away which was a clear indication to me that this guy is a total a hole and has done this to many people in the past. Overall very unprofessional and upsetting.

Just left Descanso beach club and had a great time! The Pina colada and Bloody Mary were delicious!! Heather, our server, was very nice and attentive. The food wasn't bad, just tasted like any beach club or bar food you've had before. Everything was priced the same as any other beach club or anything else on the island. The ambience was very relaxing but not boring. Overall, had a great experience :)

When Descanso first opened, it was absolutely incredible--beautifully maintained and worth every penny of the $450 cabana price. We visited several times early on and recommended it to friends and family. Unfortunately, our recent visit was really disappointing. While the service was still excellent, the cabanas were noticeably run-down. The furniture was stained, the towels were old and frankly unpleasant, and the overall atmosphere just didn't reflect the high-end experience we once loved. We were honestly embarrassed, especially after hyping it up so much. If you're going to increase the prices, please invest in upgrading the furniture and amenities to match. Also, it would be great if there were an easier, more comfortable way to enter the ocean--the rocks are really tough to walk on. We hope to see Descanso return to the amazing experience it once was.

I really enjoyed it here but you really must get a reservation as many months in advance as possible. I miss the salsa and drinks.

Food was delicious and service was great ! We tied the chicken nachos, kids cheese burger, spicy margarita, and buffalo milk. Everything was sooo good. Definitely worth it. Take the price for the rentals you really won't regret it. We rented a pair of lounge and they provide you with towels to cover the chair, towels to dry, waters and an ice bucket plus you have a server. Over all such a great time.

This place has a lot of potential but unfortunately it misses the mark in multiple ways. An afternoon on 2 lounge chairs with some food and drinks can easily run you about $300-$500. Not sure I would do it again. The good: Beautiful, peaceful views throughout Direct access to the beach (note: bring water shoes. The rocks are gnarly). The lounge chairs come with unlimited Evian water (nice touch) and a welcome smoothie. You have a waiter that comes to you so no waiting in line at a bar. If you request they can also adjust your umbrella and provide towels. Carne asada nachos were great The bad: The burger, along with the fries, tased like mediocre cafeteria food. Seriously, I only took a few bites because it tasted so low quality. This was the case for most of the entrees I tasted. The burger came out to $24 with avocado added. Makes no sense. Also beware, the waiter said the kitchen cooks all the burgers well done so no point in asking for anything else. The carne asada nachos had good flavor but included very little meat. I would not recommend the food here. You're better off holding out for seafood at one of the other restaurants in town. Do not opt for the loungers on the first row. They are on a significant incline. I was uncomfortable all afternoon. The umbrellas are in need of some serious repair/replacement. Some have holes are look very worn down. Only cold outdoor showers are available. No lockers. It's a shame because it really is a beautiful place. It just needs more polish. Hopefully things improve in the future so I can come back!

Alright guys this is a MUST! You are able to check in as soon as 12 all the way to 5pm! At least the time we went. You can leave your stuff there while you do other activities. 10/10 Customer Service : the waiter was very attentive constantly checking up on us. 10/0 cleanliness : our Cabana was clean it was a great size for 6! Not only did we have the Cabana but they have an additional 2 seat right in the front . 10/10 Cabana : you have a choice of leaving curtains open or closed . Comes with 4 seats complimentary waters on ice . You can also order cocktails and they also have food! My group reserved same day we got lucky ! Plan ahead though because they sell out fast! Over all it's beautiful ! They also have a few stores that sell swim wear and cute floats . Over all you're looking at spending a few hundred $$$ Totally recommend! Worth it ! Definitely Visiting again! Thank you !

Enjoyed this spot on Day 1 of our Catalina Island getaway. Had a frozen Mango Daiquiri, which was perfect on the hot day. Food is delicious, both the Poke Bowl and Coconut Shrimp Tacos were really good. Reserved chairs for two cost $140 first come first served, but the shade alone is totally worth it. And the beachside service (from Emma) is amazing and convenient. Beautiful beachfront view and water access is incredible. I highly recommend it, and would do this again!

While this is a beautiful beach club, I did not enjoy my experience at all. I paid a lot of money for a cabana. When my sister and I arrived to our cabana we planned of relaxing, sunbathing and enjoying the scenery. However, this was disrupted by the many children in front of our cabana throwing sand and water, crying and screaming. The children's family had the largest cabana on the corner and plenty of space for them to play in front of their area, but chose not to and the children's parents did not control the situation. In fact one of the children's mother, who was sitting in a beach chair and not a cabana came over to me while I was trying to take photos of our cabana without their children in the view to tell me I was in the way where they were playing. I was so appalled. I had to remind her that I could clearly see her children playing there but I in fact paid for the cabana and was allowed to take pictures of it. Her child could have easily played near her beach chair but they just let them run wild. This ruined our experience. The food was fine. The drinks were good and the service was lacking considering how few people were there. I wish the club would have accommodated us in some way by either moving our cabana or the other families. The ocean part of the beach is also filled with pebbles. The sand only goes so far, so there are rocks everywhere. You cannot enjoy the water without having water shoes. It also took so long for a car service to get us back to our dock. We left in time to ensure we wouldn't miss our ship, however this place is so far from the main attractions of the island that it took nearly an hour to leave. I likely wouldn't return.

Food was ok. Drinks were good. I tried the buffalo milk with a double shot but it was like drinking a milk shake with no alcohol. Just not my preference but I would still recommend all to try it for yourself. They made up with the Mai Tais which were strong and tasty. I ordered 3 of those. Overall the beach club was fun and relaxing. The dj was AMAZING. We reserved 2 chaise loungers. My only complaint is that you cant reserve an odd number of loungers as we were a party of 3 (myself, hubby, and 18 year old son). They do not allow sharing of chairs but did not make a big deal about us sharing this time thankfully. I advise that you make reservations MONTHS in advance for summer dates as they quickly sell out. We got lucky and caught a cancellation on July 5th. Overall it was a great experience and we would return.
