Second time staying here. Last time we stayed in a garden room this time we stayed in the tower overlooking the bay. Great views, comfy beds. Our room was large-some furniture was a little worn, but didn't bother us at all. Great hot tub (whoever is in charge of music in that area A ) nice location and we happened to be checking out the day of crazy rain and some flooding in the city-staff was very nice and helpful.

The catamaran was absolutely amazing in so many ways, but there was some room issues that I didn't love. We did a couples massage at the spa - it was so relaxing and efficient - my deep tissue massage was so great! The spa bathroom and steam room was my favorite. However, Our room shower was so poor, it was loose at the faucet hookeup and would shake and make a loud noise every 30 seconds or so. The TV had a supposed casting ability but it wasn't connected to the WiFi and we couldn't figure it out so ended up watching boring cable. The beds, balcony and cleanliness of our lil kitchenette and double queen bed room was so awesome, I just wish I didn't have the shower and tv issues. The property was gorgeous, exclusive bay access and a nice restaurant with room service! The room service was so amazing that it was dangerous lol we wanted to order it a ton. I absolutely loved the open lobby with the beautiful wildlife and little ponds. I was so happy with so many things at this resort, but I don't want to have to travel with a laptop just to watch TV. I wanted to use the spa instead of use our bad shower and felt like it could have been way better in our room.

Really enjoyed the stay at the Catamaran Hotel. We stayed next to the pool and was easy to walk to around the beautiful grounds. Great location and less than a 3 min walk to the beach. Only issue was that some of hot water ran at out times and the shower head had about half the nozzles plugged but this didn’t impact the overall stay which was great!
