We had a great experience with the Catalina Vacations rental. The unit was clean and everything was more or less functional. The property itself is a bit old, needs updating, the pool was under repair and the elevators slow. Our first impression was not a good one, but the place grew on us during our stay. The communication with Catalina Vacations was prompt and the check-in/check-out process was easy. The location was not terribly distant from the main downtown area. We walked to the beach/restaurants, but took a taxi with our luggage (since the walk is uphill).
