One of my favorite places to return to
This was my sixth or seventh time staying at the Catamaran, and I keep waiting for one of my experiences to not live up to the others. It still hasn’t happened; the welcome is always warm and delightful.The rooms are large and well-decorated; the bar, restaurant and coffee bar are all great; the grounds are beautiful; the spa and pool are terrific; and the location at the heart of Mission Bay is perfect.

Great resort in a great location
Such a fun and friendly hotel. Can walk directly across the street to Pacific Beach and take advantage of all of the shops and restaurants. Hotel is located directly on Mission Bay where you can go for a great walk or run. Staff is very friendly and the hotel is finishing a renovation of their guest rooms.

Dog-friendly
Had an incredible time with my wife, Jamie. Great food, gorgeous views. The birds and koi added an adventurous touch and the spa and pool were perfect additions to our lovely stay. This is the place to feel spoiled with the one you love. Oh, and they’re dog friendly too. Our little Merlin fully enjoyed himself too.

Great Stay at Catamaran Resort
Great hotel/resort! The bell hop was a great help while moving from one room to another. We had been upgraded and without having to ask he stepped up to make sure all our luggage got to the right room. The entire staff treats you like family.

New rooms really make a difference
Everything in the room was very nice from the carpet and wallpaper to the tasteful and large bathroom. As we were getting ready to leave, the general manager stopped by and asked our thoughts on the new rooms. I mentioned my one issue was the drapery not closing quite as far as I’d prefer and he told us new drapery was on order and would be installed soon. He was very pleasant and took my comments seriously. The staff was attentive and kind during our stay.
