It has scenic views and the staff is very friendly and also helpful. We asked the beat and cheapest way to get into town and they offered us good recommendations. We would definitely come back here again and refer friends as well.

Lots of stairs up and down from the beach so might be difficult for those with mobility issues. ##### Calla Stayed 7 nights in Jan 2024 ### 4/10 Poor #### Ian 16 Mar 2025 Liked: Cleanliness Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities too many stairs , first room had no air conditioning had to pay for a upgrade. Second room you could hear the room next door. Dinning room was poor didn't even serve coffee ##### Ian Stayed 14 nights in Feb 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Fernanda 11 Jan 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities This is a great hotel. The staff was really friendly and helpful. The facilities are very good: great pool and beach areas, and nice restaurant and bar with panoramic views. Our room had a terrace with ocean view which was just breathtaking. It's calm and has nature all around. Probably not an option for people with reduced mobility for there are a lot of stairs between reception, rooms, pool and beach areas. Otherwise, definitely a must. Looking forward to returning! ##### Fernanda ### 8/10 Good #### Chrystyan Alexys 20 Sept 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Ok ##### Chrystyan Alexys Stayed 1 night in Sep 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### lisa 19 May 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### OG Playa Ropa 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. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/C25F4D5EAD1EEEFD5E1708E57922790781C8F2291716047126496.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/5A273B168013E1E617DB025D0E1FA0947AAD27B81716047128208.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/F12A81ED77EA505CC4248B1BD4406F852269A74A1716047123659.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### lisa Stayed 9 nights in Apr 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Laurie 9 Nov 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities We absolutely loved the grounds of this property, they were so beautiful and lush and green. Lots of flowers and trees and shrubbs. The views from the rooms and from the bar and restaurant are unmatched and gorgeously stunning! As beautiful as the stairs are on the grounds, they were tiresome to climb everyday, but somehow with the stunning views they were worth it I guess! The property could use some maintenance of the buildings. All in all, we truly loved this property and the staff was so friendly and always went above and beyond their job. We would definately come back!! ##### Laurie Stayed 7 nights in Nov 2023 ### 4/10 Poor #### Laura 24 Jan 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service 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. ##### Laura Stayed 2 nights in Jan 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### john 28 Feb 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities Our room was booked at least 6 months ahead. It was old. Shower took long time to heat up. AC went and we had to switch 2 rooms later. Husband was sick and had no breakfast. I asked for a credit and they said no. Finally after much discussion with manager we got another breakfast. Beautiful location. Nice pool. Lounge chairs on beach hard to get ##### john Stayed 3 nights in Feb 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Donna 6 Mar 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service Disliked: Property conditions & facilities This property is very old and not well kept. Some rooms have no AC, no lamps, lightbulbs are burned out, outlets do not work, sink in bathroom is falling off the wall. The problems are all repairable but there is no maintenance crew. Even the beach towels are very old and have holes in them. The restaurant service and bar is very slow even for Mexico. The good points are the beds are very comfortable, the staff is fantastic, the breakfast adequate, the bar drinks were also good. The location to Zihua is nice and the view is perfection. We will return to the area but possibly not to this place due to the above mentioned things. ##### Donna Stayed 4 nights in Mar 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Judith 1 Nov 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities We loved staying at the Catalina Beach Resort. The hotel is in a beautiful location and the rooms are spacious and well appointed. The hotel is situated in mature vegetation and price is great for what it offers. The hotel is well loved and the staff friendly. We hope we will be back. ![Cute towel animals each day ](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/450994bb-25ec-46a2-9e73-24317863106a-1761958372537.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Massages on the beach ](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/f16ec916-2e91-4ba0-b038-1b23aa4a8311-1761958374139.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![From the sunbeds](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/7973c013-e6f4-4913-b894-f824c8362e3a-1761958373971.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![The pool ](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/dbbcc1a5-684e-4404-aa61-4d03de184e8b-1761958370745.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Judith Stayed 4 nights in Oct 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Eduardo 17 Sept 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Agradable lugar, superó mis expectativas!
