Our family of 4 had a great time in Catalina. The cottage was super cute and we loved hanging out in the evening in the living room, the sofa/bed is very comfortable. The location is super central and minutes to everything. The Von 's grocery store is a few minutes away and has everything the mainland has and at pretty much the same prices. We liked walking to the Botanic gardens. We had a great day at Descanso swimming, reading on the beach and also loved the Aerial Adventures.
