Catalina Beach Resort is my happy place. The beach and views are amazing, the staff excellent, and though the property is a bit tired it is clean and well maintained. Their beach bar is the best and the breakfasts outstanding. Be mindful that it spills down the cliff and there are many stairs! I love this place.

Limited dining options but quick 100 peso taxi into centro. Built against a cliff so the inherent many stairs are difficult for older or non-fit people. Makes for a good workout. Beach access very good. Staff on the grounds, restaurant, and reception could not be better.

There are many nice aspects of this old hotel -- built in the 50s and 60s on a high cliff 240 stone steps above Playa La Ropa (best beach in the area). Let me say I am an American and this place caters to mostly Mexicans. I did have a great stay, but there are rough spots that people should know about and some that management could fix. First there is zero 'room guide' that would assist those unfamiliar with such things as the AC (that has ~ 6 modes, only 2 of which cool the room). Cable TV (0 streaming -- the wifi was not functional in our room (Room number in high 40s) was difficult to manage - major networks had Spanish overdubs only -- dont come for the TV... ALL of the food service is VERY SLOW. The breakfast guys do ok -- AND you have the cool morning breezes and spectacular view while you wait. The beach snack bar service was SUPER BAD -- very very slow. The Hotel sells Day Passes to non-guests for 400 pesos and they get full credit towards buying food and drinks (so if they order 400 pesos worth of stuff its 'included' -- and the staff cant keep up with the orders... it seems. We ordered a shrimp cocktail (awesome) and a few drinks and it took at least 30 minutes to arrive and that only after we left our chair area and bugged them about our order at the bar there (this is all stuff that should be premade and super easy to serve.. ? wtx) Anyway, the beach is great,calm, sandy ! BYO there. Grounds are a beautiful jungle with birds etc.

Our overall experience was not great. Our first room was dirty , safe didn’t work no windows or AC. We upgraded at a cost to a better room which worked out much better. Check in was poor , no information was given to us by front end staff regarding special events, no map of the resort. Most of the staff seemed to be indifferent to requests from guests. The few bright spots was Alberto in the breakfast area without him we wouldn’t have known about special dinners or events or what the breakfast plan included. We kind of got the feeling that resort did the bare minimum just to keep the resort open. Checkout was a little bit of a challenge do to extra costs which most we’re prepaid but some were not.

We loved our stay at Catalina Beach resort. It was our 2nd trip to zihua but our first stay at Catalina. We loved the location. It was a nice distance to walk to town. We enjoyed having the private beach with palapas, beach towels and our own bar. Our favorite bartender Alberto took very good care of us. The breakfasts had a great variety of food.....fruit, eggs, bacon, eggs, pancakes, french toast, juice, coffee....and much more. We ate dinner at the resort for 3 nights and they were by far some of our best meals of our 2 week stay. One night we enjoyed the sunset beach bbq dinner and it was FABULOUS! The steak was melt in your mouth and the lobster was to die for. A big kudos to Hector who served us for breakfast and for 2 of our panoramic bar dinners. He was so helpful.....recommended things for us to do around town and sharing lots of local stories. The ladies at the reception accommodated all of our requests. It was a 100% stress-free holiday and we will definitely be returning. Thank you Alberto, Hector and the rest of the Catalina team for making our holiday on to remember.
