Perfect location in Mission Bay. Love the grounds and location to the beach. Real fast was amazing - eggs Benedict. The Staff were all friendly and fast to react when the air in our room wasn’t working and we needed more towels. I will say the rooms and bathroom need a facelift - ie new carpet new bathroom floor and shower wasn’t working quite right. I was here 10 years ago and a few other times and I’m thinking uh oh- it’s time to upgrade. I would still come back and try the spa.

The Catamaran is our GO-TO spot when we have guests in town or want to impress…! Every menu item is cooked to perfection plus the ambience is second to none. Don’t miss the Champagne Brunch on Sundays!
We bring… a football to toss on the lush lawn before and after our meal - the kids love it!
A true luxury resort feel from beginning to end.
Have you checked out the spa?!
The Catamaran spa is the only logical place to get a pedicure/manicure considering you can use the spa services all day when you purchase a service! -dry sauna -steam room -hot tub -Vitamin C showers -swimming

I like the environment at the catamaran but the prices are way too expensive.. then location is perfect because everything is within walking distance but for the price we paid it was not worth it. There are better places for less than 1/2 the price.

This place is OK. The location, beach and pool are all incredible. The rooms are VERY meh. We got upgraded to a tower suite which was spacious but still outdated to the 90s at best. For $450+ per night, I’d expect a nicer experience. This isn’t Reno.
