Top Big Bear Central Hotel Reviews

Hotel Marina Riviera

8/10 Good

"Couldn’t beat the location and the views. Staff was really friendly and the room was nice. It was a very small room, which is ok if you’re not planning to spend much time there. Our bathroom sliding door wouldn’t quite stay all the way closed, but it wasn’t a big deal for us. Our kids loved the pool and beach area, and we appreciated the close proximity to the village. Overall, we will definitely stay again if we decide to stay in a hotel on our next visit."

Bear Creek Resort

8/10 Good

"The room was great! The place was very homey and clean. Angela was also amazing, however the tv wasn’t working, We were not told we needed to ask for hot water so we endured a cold shower at night but then asked Angela the next day and it was heated but only slightly warm. The highlight was the private jacuzzi! In spite of the two not so great things this was a very memorable stay and kind of perfect."

Big Bear Frontier

10/10 Excellent

"Request a room upstairs, request a room upstairs, request a room upstairs. Despite an amazing location, remodeled rooms and amazing stay, my only complaint is how thin the walls are. We go to bed fairly early but people upstairs stayed up and walked around and played music until 2am. It’s not their fault but I would request the room upstairs if I planned to stay again “also request a fan because it’s wayyyy too quiet and you hear everything!!!! But again, it’s a beautiful location, beautiful rooms and for the price, I’d book again"

Lagonita Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"We always stay at the Lagonita, its right on the lake, which is great. The full kitchens are very convenient. Fireplace in each unit. Not far from the village. Very quiet and peaceful. They have activities, you can rent boats and they have a boat tour of the lake you can take. The parking situation is good. The staff are always helpful. Only drawback is no air conditioning, but they give you a fan lol. Its never bothered us, better to breath in the fresh mountain air."

SoCal Vacations - Village Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Loved being so close to everything. It would have been nice to have complimentary sealed packs of coffee vs a used open container of coffee. Didn't feel comfortable making a pot of coffee with that. Other then that we had everything we needed in the kitchen. Everything was very clean and welcoming. They had pleasant music playing in the tv and we had it playing the whole time."
