Good but lack of storage
Overall, our stay in C902 was good. We like the Catalina tower and the 9th floor is just right as to height. The condo was clean and well decorated, but we quickly found a severe lack of storage. There is a pantry and bedroom closet, but both were filled with overflow kitchen bowls and appliances as well as cleaning equipment. We had to store a lot of our stuff on the bunk beds in the hall.

A Perfect Stay
Clean, well-appointed, great view, easy beach access and perfect for two people, this condo has everything you need for a great vacation. The vibe is chill and the beach chair service is great! With the addl half bath, the two of us we were very comfortable (six people in the condo would be a challenge). Ft Morgan is off the main drag, but everything you need (groceries, seafood restaurants) is within a 10- to 15-minute drive. There is also a great pub/restaurant, ice cream parlor and souvenir shop on property. Service was friendly and fast! We enjoyed every moment of our stay. Thank you!
