Résumé des avis

The hotel is often praised for its beautiful and well-maintained grounds, its pleasant facilities, including swimming pools and lush vegetation. The staff is frequently commended for their friendliness and excellent service. The quality and variety of the food, particularly in the à la carte restaurants, are also highly regarded, as is the overall cleanliness of the property and the rooms. However, the beach is sometimes considered disappointing, being described as small, rocky, and occasionally prone to seaweed, making it less suitable for swimming or walking.

Privilege Supplement
Supplément privilège

Paying the extra fee for privileges is well worth it. The private pool and bar are tranquil, and the Bloved restaurant is delicious for lunch, dinner, or supper, but it's only accessible with the privilege pass. I highly recommend it if you want to eat well.

Payer le supplément privilège en vaut la peine. Piscine et bar privé tranquille et le restaurant Bloved est délicieux que ce soit pour déjeuner, dinner ou souper, mais uniquement accessible avec la passe privilège. Je recommande fortement si vous voulez bien manger.

Enjoyable vacation
Vacances agréables

We loved our stay at the Catalonia! We enjoyed the hotel staff, the buffet food, the little shops on site, and the neighborhood, which was perfect for walking (near Dolphin Discovery). There was no seagrass because they'd put up a barrier to block access as much as possible, keeping the sea clean! Our room was very spacious, with plenty of towels, a balcony, and a large bed. Be aware, however, that there were mosquitoes on some days more than others, especially in Steakville! It was impossible to eat without getting bitten several times… We had the pleasure of going to the Japanese restaurant and we loved the food and the atmosphere!

Nous avons adoré notre séjour au Catalonia !

Nous avons aimé le personnel de l’hôtel, la nourriture du buffet, les petites boutiques sur place, le quartier qui permettait de s’y promener (près du Dolphin Discovery), pas de sargrass puisqu’ils ont mis une barrière permettant de bloquer l’accès le plus possible pour que la mer reste belle ! La chambre que nous avions était très grande, assez de serviettes, balcon, grand lit.

Attention toutefois il y avait quand même des moustiques certains jours plus que d’autres, surtout au Steakville ! Il était impossible de manger sans se faire piquer à plusieurs reprises… Nous avons eu le plaisir d’aller au restaurant japonais et nous avons adoré la nourriture et l’ambiance !

Decent holiday, rough sea.
Vacance correct, mer agitée.

The pool didn't seem to be chlorinated! There were lots of children and people at the bar who didn't go outside to use the restrooms! The water looked cloudy. The buffet was good, but repetitive. It's a vacation, and I enjoyed being on vacation.

La piscine ne semblait être chloré ! Il y avait bcp d'enfant et de monde au bar qui ne sortait pas pour aller au toilette! L'eau d'aspect brouillé. Le buffet était bon, mais redondant. C'est des vacance et j'ai aimé être en vacance.
