"This is our 2nd visit to the family-owned and operated Hotel Mama Ines and we enjoyed both times immensely. This time we enjoyed getting there on the newly-paved road, which was a wonderful surprise.
The infinity pool is gorgeous and kept very clean. We enjoyed the beach. The restaurant serves excellent food 👌 We especially liked the fish fingers.
Room #1 with the private patio and hammock is our favorite and we were given the jubilados "senior discount." The restaurant staff even brought the food to ouf patio. Looking forward to our next visit 😀 Fondly, DARLENE & DOUGLAS HAHN"
"It’s a well curated place with 6 bungalow’s and a nice pool, overall done with care and good taste However it’s overpriced for what you get especially considering that it is located in a very rough and poorly maintained area with abandoned constructions projects , junks and hazards around the property, access to the tiny beach require going through concrete waist and rusted metals, to be fair it’s pretty much all over Santa Catalina not just this property. The other reason I think is overpriced is the property do not provide any service such as basic cleaning during your stay any food, drinks simply the small habitation and a shared pool. "
"I spent a week at Surfasana Lodge. It is a unique property on a hill overlooking the Pacific Ocean. Surfasana Lodge is very peaceful surrounded by nature. Mauricio is a chill guy that can answer all your questions about Santa Catalina in general or surfing in particular. He is very interesting to talk with. I thoroughly enjoyed my week at Surfasana. The rooms are very clean and well appointed. If you come to Santa Catalina for surfing or diving, I highly recommend Surfasana Lodge for your accomodations. "
"This is a unique hotel. It's out of the way, on the edge of the jungle on a beautiful deserted beach. I walked for 5 km on the beach and saw 2 people, "
"Stayed at Villa Coco in Santa Catalina with a group of five of us in a suite and had an incredible experience. The property itself is beautiful — the grounds are peaceful, the rooms are clean and comfortable, and everything feels really well cared for. The staff were outstanding from start to finish: friendly, accommodating, and genuinely welcoming. The food was excellent, and being able to borrow bikes to explore the area was such a great touch.
The location is also ideal — nicely tucked away so it feels calm and private, yet still perfectly situated between both ends of town so everything is easy to get to.
Overall, this place is amazing and I wouldn’t hesitate to stay again. Highly recommend to anyone visiting Santa Catalina."
"I first wanna say there was a nice welcome gift, a bottle of champagne and two chill bottles of water and the bed was comfortable.
No towel, only a bathmat, no Wi-Fi, although it was advertised, AAA batteries, and only one remote device, so I had to keep switching them until I went and bought another set and brought them home with me. Bugs crawling all over the floor. No soap in the bathroom. And it wasn’t until this morning when I moved the welcome note and found the business card with the contact for the owner. I tried to send a message through orbit, but I never received a response. It has great potential, but needs a lot of work. "
