The room was clean. The staff was very courteous when I checked in however, when I checked out the person at the counter was not that friendly. We had a great dinner at Oceana with a fantastic waiter. My husband and I really enjoyed the grounds and we had a very nice experience getting a couples massage at the spa. I do think that the restaurant should have done a better job of staffing because it was a very busy weekend and they didn’t seem to have very much staff and the service was kind of slow.

The room was clean and well maintained. It was not overstated with the tropical theme and in my opinion just right. Bed was comfortable. Housekeeping was great. The cleanliness and maintenance of the bathroom was great (many hotels struggle with this). Finally we were upgraded to a room with a nice view which was perfect for our "special occasion" trip. The staff was always friendly and smiling which is a tribute to your hotels culture. Well Done!

My husband and I went for our “baby moon” and we absolutely loved our stay! Before we even checked in, the manager Jayne reached out to me to see if we needed any additional accommodations. They also upgraded our room to a suite on the 10th floor! I feel like we were treated so well! Being nearly 7 months pregnant, my only request was a comfy king sized bed, and the beds were so great! Everyone was so nice. The bar and food were fabulous! Every night my husband and I sat on the beach chairs looking out to the bay and watched the sun go down. It was so lovely to stay here! The only thing is that the rooms are a bit dated, but that didn’t bother us one bit. Everything worked and honestly, it gave a good homey, beach-y vibe. I loved having a fridge and freezer for our food along with a microwave. I absolutely plan on coming back! This place is great for kids as well! Also highly recommend the Mexican food place right next door! Definitely the best I’ve ever had

We had a fantastic experience at the Catamaran Resort. The dated rooms will need a facelift to take them to the top tier, but the people were fantastic, and the location puts you right in the middle of the best parts of Mission and Pacific Beach. My wife and I look forward to our next stay at Catamaran and partying on Pacific Beach.
