The property was prestine with kind and helpful staff

Beautiful place, familiar ambiance, pool, beautiful beach, the view, sometimes it didn’t felt like Costa Rica and people is nice.

Place was great, but the pool was under construction.. great for adults, a little lacking for the kids

Las Catalinas could be lovely. But there is so much construction going on at all hours that it is far from peaceful and almost impossible to sleep. The presence of the construction and the car free requirements (you must valet your car) make it very hard to get in and out of the community (30 minutes at a time to pickup the car unless you tip lavishly), making you hostage to eating at only their very expensive restaurants during your stay. The accommodations themselves are otherwise quite nice, and the beach is lovely too. But they need to deal with the gridlock and the construction noise.

The specific unit we stayed in was really nice and spacious with a great view of the ocean. So was the overall complex. However, the owner can pay more attention to details such as the condition of the appliances (dishwasher wasn’t operational) and basic amenities such as a roll of paper towel or a box of Kleenex that rental apartments typically have.

Beautiful place, wonderful area.

Amazing property…. Gorgeous location that is truly a hidden gem. Just wish they included more family activity options (plenty of things to pay extra for)…. But a basketball hoop with no basketball for example isn’t very helpful. More beach activities included in the price would’ve been great, although paying the $15pp for the beach club ended up being worth it for our group.

My stay at Las Catalinas Collection was the perfect end to my month of travels in Costa Rica. The property was pristine and the concierge services were superior. I would definitely return and recommend to anyone. Las Catalinas is a must visit if coming to Costa Rica. It was my fourth time visiting the town, and I had always wanted to stay, so this first for me was extra special and I can’t wait to return for a future visit.

This is a beautiful place for couples or a family. You can do a romantic dinner at Sentido Norte - kids not allowed. There are other options like Pot & Bowls, Ponciana, or Papagayo brewery. Beach club food isn't bad either, however, you will have to pay extra for access. I recommend, if you are staying for at least 5 days and have a car, to buy groceries at a supermarket so you can do your own cooking. The on-site gourmet market is very expensive. Lastly, the description/ad states "ocean view", and there isn't ocean view access from the villa. You aren't too far away though. The pictures below are from the beach club, and the restaurant Sentido Norte. Make sure you make reservations far in advance, or you will not find seats at the restaurant. Overall, we would visit and stay again.

Wow wow wow! What a beautiful place! We stayed for 2 days and nights in one of the very comfortable flats/condos. It was so relaxing and enjoyable. Never needed to leave the property for anything. Plenty of restaurant and activity options. The grocery, the beach, and opportunities to stroll the beautiful, walkable streets of town. And don't miss the sunsets at the fabulous Stentido Norte restaurant, voted one of the most romantic restaurants in the world.

We were traveling with another couple and booked a deluxe 2 bedroom (1 king, 1 queen), 2 full bathrooms, a large full size kitchen, outdoor covered patio with dining set, outdoor kitchen area, ocean view and private plunge pool. When we checked in they took us to a room and it was a very small room, no patio, no plunge pool, no ocean view, 1 king room, 1 built-in bunkbed set, 1 shared bathroom the size of a tiny coat closet, and was at the backside of the property not near the beach. I don't know if this is a hotel.com problem or if the property poorly manages the units. I was lucky I printed off everything including the hotels.com pictures of the unit when I booked it. They did move us to another larger unit (not the one we had), however it still didn't have a plunge pool and was at the far side of the property. It was disappointing because it took most of the day for them to figure it out and we didn't get our room or luggage until after 5pm. So a large part of our day was spent on that and not starting our vacation. The room we were given also didn't have wifi. Which usually isn't a big deal, however if you want to plan any activities, look up places to eat, directions, make calls or text/share photos, no wifi becomes a problem. Even though we let the desk know, IT didn't come until our last day and it still didn't work. When you do the select room option in the booking section, be sure to print and keep everything to save yourself problems/charges later.

Unique architecture, great view, pools, and beaches. A bit pricey but definitely worth staying at least one night here to experience the luxury.

Liked: Welcome and arrival, free valet parking, wifi, salt water pool, restaurant options, location, beach, beautiful architecture, sunset. Disliked: Beach club closes too early 6pm, store closes too early, check out was too early 10am and not communicated or on info sheet, no town map, shower head in room was not working, room was in main traffic path and didn't feel private, Casa Chameleon restaurant made a big deal about dress code then didn't enforce it as nobody else followed it.

Excellent
