There are Eight 3 story units in the building.
Everyone asks why we do we not provide white towels and flat sheets. the answer is simple we would rather offer YOU our valued customers lower rates to allow you and your loved ones more fun money :) Instead of adding random admin fees and laundry we "just" pass the savings right on to you!

Here is "just" a little more additional info based off of recent reviews we have received:
The property and each unit is Professionally sprayed once a month by an exterminator, you will see palmettos because they come in on people, beach chairs, towels and anything/anyone who has come from outside. The answer to “why am I seeing these pests” is they reside in palm trees and find their way into the building by riding in on people and beach stuff. I call them our unofficial mascot of our beach town ;)
Maintenance Dept. is available from 10AM-5PM and I will provide you their number with a list of Emergency after hour vs non Emergency scenarios.
Quiet hours at Catalina (pool closes at 10 p.m.) noise in building should not be heard outside of your unit after 11 p.m. Please shower or hose off you and your crew after leaving the beach and before jumping in the pool. We do have it cleaned everyday (we do this around day break to avoid you having to see it) :) Showering off and getting all the sand off your suits helps a lot more than you think :)
We do have our thermostats set and locked. However if you are too cold or too hot you can text maintenance :) between 10AM-5PM to have them come look at it. We ask to keep all windows and doors closed because if left open the HVAC shuts off all together.
I will keep adding useful bits of info as I get them to pass on to you our potential guests. Hope to SEA y'all down here soon! Michael

We had such a good time. The location was perfect for our group & the size of the townhouse accommodated our entire group perfectly! Maintenance was very responsive to our minor issue with the AC and we were able to have an enjoyable stay.

Great stay for our family. Staff was very helpful and responded quickly to request. Unit was clean and extremely close to beach. Short walk to shops etc. Unit needs new interior paint however we would stay again.

Thanks so much! We hope to see you again! Have a great Summer!
Everything was up to par except for the parking enforcement. Unauthorized cars were parked on the property garage and were not towed.

Thanks Dennis! Im sorry about the parking. We try to let everyone know the rules and only issue parkings passes equal to units.
Extra cars are supposed to use overflow parking next door.
Plenty of space, 3 kitchens most of the essentials. It’s an older space, carpet could use replacing, however everything was clean. Right across from the beach. There is a pool it’s small but convenient.
Their is no internet whatever they show swimming pool but it’s permanent closed..room are not smell bad.it’s not clean..location is pretty good..

Thank you for your feedback. We regret the multiple issues during your stay. Unfortunately the internet went down which resulted in a two day pool closure because the emergency phone line at the pool is connected to the internet. The Department of Health shut down the pool until Frontier could come fix the internet and get the phone line working. The pool is not "permanently closed." I am sorry that you felt the rooms were not clean. The carpets were professionally washed, all bedding was washed and the check-in instructions clearly indicated that if there are any cleaning concerns they should be addressed within an hour of check in so we can take care of a specific concern. We are glad you enjoyed the location which is one block from Main Street and half a block to the ocean.

Over all we had a good time. We rented on short notice and would liked to have had a nicer place for the money we paid. Plenty of room but more geared to senior week and fraternity kids. There was no rugs anywhere and the beds were awful. No TVs in any bedrooms except for the efficiency rooms.

Hi Robin! I'm glad you had a good time overall. I'm not sure how to respond to the no rugs coment except by saying the top two floors of this 2800 square-foot, 6bedroom condo has wall-to-wall carpet. The first floor is polished concrete, that is probably what you were referring to.
And Yes, you are right about students! Catalia Manor was designed and built for the large group market segment. We cater to sports teams that come for tournaments and we also cater to school trips, both grade school and College. I looked at your dates, there were quite a few student groups on the property during your stay. After, July 10th, we have mostly families and basketball teams.
I'll consider your comments on TVs. There isn't any reason we can't get more smart TVs now that we upgraded the building to 1Gig speed fiber optic internet. I'm not sure if this upgrade was complete while you were here. Before the upgrade, our system could not handle that many smart TVs at once - it was a bandwidth issue.
Best Regards to you and your family, and have a great summer!

This place is for younger people. My mom and older siblings did not care for it. In need of serious updating. There is no place to gather because this large pool table sits in the middle of the living room. So part of my party went to a different location. If you have a large group of young people this is for you. But if you over 40 I would not recommend it.

Thank you Sherry.
Your review is accurate. Most of our business are large youth oriented groups. Youth groups, sports teams, etc.
We also get large families on a budget at Thanksgiving.
The gathering area with pool table are plainly in the pictures in the listing.
New carpet is being installed this month. We waited a long time for it to arrive. It would have been better if we could of had it I stalled prior to your arrival.
Best Regards,
Monroe
Location to beach was great and walkable (just a block away) and it was so nice not to have to pack up a car to get there. Close to a lot of shops as well. Music from neighboring bars could be heard from some rooms at night. Tables were high tops which made it difficult for the elderly in our group to eat meals, they sat at a few lower chairs but didn’t have any regular height tables (this could be difficult with kids too). All three floors remained cool which was great. Ask about parking passes before you arrive, we ended up with one car too many and had to pay to park one (luckily there was a convenient all day parking lot next door).
We were out and about majority of the time so this was the home base that we needed to fit a large group and allow for easy coming and going.
I enjoyed my stay , it was a lot of space for all of us.

Great Location
Layout was a little odd, but location was excellent. The property did tell us ahead of time about the bugs, but it still freaked out some people in our group, but we only saw a few. Kitchen’s were fully stocked nicely. I do think the carpet on the steps need replaced.
it's very roomy and it accommodated our big family. It's in a very nice area for a big family with plenty to do. Shops, food are all with in walking distance and the beach is right across the street. If you're looking for seafood try Buoy's on the Boulevard was awesome. We are looking forward to doing it again.
