The Courtyard Penthouse Suite at Courtyard Garden Suites

The Penthouse at the Courtyard Garden Suites on Catalina Island is the premier vacation spot. If you're looking to spread out in a 1800 square feet with wood flooring, beamed ceilings and richly crafted wood, then this is certainty the place. The Penthouse also contains a full kitchen, master bedroom, 2 bathrooms, and a fully enclosed balcony that overlooks the Avalon bay. This suite is so prestigious in fact that Snoop Dogg was rumored to stay here. If you're looking to add the best views and most luxuruus spot to your stay on the island, then take a look at the Courtyard Penthouse Suite

Buffalo Milk on Catalina Island

I know that drinking buffalo milk might sound a little odd from what we are used to. However Catalina Island has a signature drink named Buffalo Milk that you should definitely try out. This particular alcoholic beverage has different ingredients but zero buffalo milk in it. The name is
attributed to the bison that roam around the island. So don’t get confused and when you visit Catalina Island and ask for our Buffalo Milk. Buffalo Milk is made out of vodka, banana crème, kalua, cocoa crème, and some other special ingredients that make it just perfect.
