This place is very nice, very close to everything. Nacho did great job. Only thing i didn't like was the courtyard music playing till 9pm. Was loud, maybe turn it off sooner. Otherwise the place was great. Big room and bathroom was very big.. fun place

Close to dining and shopping. Easy to walk everywhere The room was clean but the shower was dripping water all night long, it really should be fixed 😩 Pillows could be better.

It was definitely a nice place to stay. It reminds me of the old Bed & Breakfasts from the old days. It’s a true 3-star hotel nothing more nothing less. I recommend it for sure. Don’t take my 3-Star rating as bad it’s just the honest truth and I would rebook this hotel. Staff was very nice One of our room they forget to check the dresser and some lady left dirty underwear in the drawer. Complementary breakfast food and drinks are available 24 hours which is a very nice touch. Is located in the quiet location

Excellent location, very accommodating and friendly staff. The room was clean and there was a large beautiful bathroom and lovely courtyard with a fire pit. Coffee and prepackaged danish was available downstairs for breakfast but there were no plates. There were no glasses or ice bucket in the room but I was able to get some in the breakfast room. I really appreciated the ability to check out later because we had to change plans because of bad weather.

Nice quiet place
The room was clean, the beds were not that comfortable. My back hurt from sleeping in the futon. The place was quiet and cozy and the fire pit in the courtyard was a nice little touch. Check in and check out were super easy, and we had not problem getting there.

We rented the family room and paid almost $600 for one night. While the one person we saw at the hotel was very nice and the room size was fine, the bathroom was absolutely disgusting, dirty with stains on towels and a big lump of hair in the drain. I have travelled all over the world and this was the worst bathroom i have ever encountered. The island is beautiful, but this hotel needs a huge update.

Overall good experience. Clean and close to the main center, but away from the noise. The only downside is the lack of service. There was only one gentleman running the place. We had to call for him to show up and check us in and out. There is no room service. If you need anything, you have to call, leave a message, and wait for a response. I went to get a drink from a vending machine and a delivery guy asked me to sign for a delivery since no one else was around. Call me old fashioned, but I want to see SOMEONE working the front desk, it felt deserted. I would still recommend and stay at this property.

We loved our stay at the Catalina Courtyard Suites! The location was perfect, a quick walk to the center of town, but not directly on a main road. The staff was very helpful and friendly, and we appreciated the coffee and bagels in the morning. We slept extremely well in our room, the room darkening shades were top tier. The only issue was our tv in our room, but not a huge problem on our end.

Great Location. Excellent Staff. Well-maintained.
Really lovely garden view hotel with a common area patio [open all day for continental breakfast], and a fire pit with comfortable chairs surrounded by lush succulents. The service was excellent. The staff was great and very accommodating. Clean. Our particular room on the 2nd floor was close to the lobby entrance which forced us to keep our window shades down for privacy. Next time (and we will be back) we will ask for a room further back. The hot tub was an added bonus. Large comfortable room with a big screen TV and comfy bed. They allowed us to store our luggage in the lobby early so we could walk around. Great location near the beach and shopping. But, away from noisy streets.

Pros: tidy little motel, friendly people-when you could find them. Bedding was fresh and nice--large TV worked fine. Cons: Jacuzzi did not function (the jets) and as we filled the tub, black hair floated up in the water, kind of gross. Tile floor dirty, needed to wash our bare feet after walking across the floor. Tried to report problems--no one in the office, nor anyone there during check-out. No "informational" hand-out, so no info about Island and attractions (we found our own downtown) and no internet instructions--we sorted it with help from a neighbor.

The location of this property is convenient. Near shops and the beach, walk to just about anywhere in 10-15 minutes or catch/rent a golf cart. The stairs to the upper rooms are a little scary especially if you had a little to drink, lol, steep. We had a nice mini vacation.
