I've been coming to the Catalina for over 20 years, I adore it and what it offers--best location on the beach, friendly service, and casual atmosphere...having said that I must also say that I miss the stewardship and staff that I've grown up with over the years. Change is hard, but it should not come at the cost of loyal employees.

What a fantastic place! Lots of stairs with quite a bit of age showing, but we come here for the history and romance of a traditional Mexican hotel!

Loved the beach view and access to town. There are a lot of steps to the beach depending on where your room is. We were fine but some older folks had trouble with the steps. They have a great infinity pool that wasn’t used that much so felt like your own. Nice big rooms, a little older but clean. Service was slow at the restaurants so often ate at the other ones for breakfast and other meals. Their bar had a great spot for sunset drinks and viewing. Staff was very friendly and accommodating. Helped us out with wifi issues. Would definitely stay again!

It's right on the beach, palapas for shade and wonderful staff providing food service there. The gorgeous pool was a nice alternative to beach swimming. This is a mid-century hotel with fantastic touches, grounds and history. There are LOTS of stairs, fyi. Go to an Ixtapa all-inclusive if you want sterile and impersonal staff! This place has charming character. A gem with great breakfasts, a sunset view bar and restaurant and friendly staff. Why ever leave?

If you are going there for a nice relaxing time you just need to know that there are a lot of stairs from the lobby to the beach (over 250)! I didn’t know but a lot of the people I talked to love it. I guess if you call the office they can drive you down but who wants to do that?! The hotel is very rustic and could definitely use a make over! It has been there for years and people keep coming back. It was recommended to me and I trusted the person that told me about it. Next time I will be sure to do my homework! Everyone that worked there were very nice!

The staff and ambiance are unparalleled, as is the location of the hotel. The property is a tropical paradise. If you like a challenge, there are 275 steps from the beach to the reception area, which I was able to navigate, daily, 90 days after a broken ankle... We called it "bootie" camp. Mind you, keep in mind, it is important to be a fit person, old or young, and not ideal for very small children. Overall, 5 stars.

This hotel is old and in need of renovation. The rooms are nothing fancy. The water pressure is so low. I had to shampoo my hair at the pool showers. We could not see through the windows as they were covered with a dingy plastic, so we were unable to see the view of the ocean. You must run the shower for 15 minutes to get lukewarm water. There are lots of stairs and no elevators; this may be a problem for some. This hotel is overpriced for what it is. Your pay for location and beach access.

This place is a classic old Mexican resort, right on the beach. Great convenient location. And pretty affordable for where it is. Lots of stairs to keep you in shape on your vacation. Staff was friendly and attentive. Watch the sunset from your deck, and go to sleep to the sound of waves.

The property has a beautiful location on the beach the staff in some areas need more training but will do anything you ask. Very nice people. facility is tired in areas. What ruined my stay was EXPEDIA misrepresenting the room i was getting. What was advertised and what I got were totally different. I am sure all hotels have less desirable rooms and this is what Expedia got me. Staff showed me the room I thought I was getting and it was lovely and would have been a treat to stay in. My first and last time with Expedia.

This property has a fabulous view of La Ropa beach. It is quite old and charming and rustic. There are hundreds of stairs to anyplace on this resort, so it’s not ideal for anyone with mobility issues. The staff and location make this resort wonderful, but the stairs are EVERYWHERE….

The property overall was good. The only 2 things that could be improved upon was the way they handled the credit card info at check in. We had to give them the credit card times the day we checked in and they still did not have the information the day we checked out. Breakfast was not up to par. We ordered what we wanted and they gave us what they wanted us to have.

The hotel is in a lovely location on the beach but it has over 200 stairs to go up and down to get to the room, reception, restaurant and beach. The building is in disrepair and the rooms need upgrading. The fridge in the room was so noisy and got really hot. The ceiling fan was not properly attached to the ceiling. The majority of the staff were great. I would not stay there again. There are many hotels on that beach which are much nicer.

Ad says “pet friendly”, maybe so but you can’t take them anywhere and not supposed to leave alone in your room, and a 600 peso per day charge, not mentioned. Didn’t find out room had no AC until check in. Some of the cheapest TP we’ve seen anywhere. The view was great from room balcony. Short taxi ride to market and restaurant area. Overall, not worth the price we paid.

A charming old hotel. Great location and excellent service. A bit shabby but that gives it character. Great views of La Ropa from our deck, the bar and the restaurant. Good breakfast included in room rate. Lots of stairs up and down from the beach so might be difficult for those with mobility issues.

I loved the people working there, they were so kind and helpful. I appreciated the work they did and the help they assisted with. However the rooms are different than what’s being advertised. Outside of the rooms is a lot nicer but the room itself was disappointing.

The view of Playa LaRopa and the bay from our king bed terrace room was amazing! The terrace was large with lounge chairs and a hammock. Nice for relaxing in the evening! Our room was very clean and the AC kept us cool. We selected breakfast included for our 7 day stay and were glad we did! I particularly liked the Huevos Rancheros! All breakfasts included fresh fruit, orange juice and bread with jam. The staff at the restaurant are excellent as well! Some things to keep in mind if planning to stay here. To get around the resort and down to the beach there are many steps to negotiate. For us it was ok after a few days we were comfortable with the steps. If you have problems with mobility you may find it difficult staying here. Also this is an older resort (I believe one of the first in the area )so there are some issues with maintenance for example missing railings on some walkways. Over all I didn't find this a big issue the age of the resort after all is part of its charm! Over all we really enjoyed our stay at the Catalina Beach Resort and would stay here again! Safe Travels!
