Leaving in the morning after a week.s stay in the privileged section of the hotel. No ocean view rooms available here. The Catalonia is sandwiched between Secrets and the uber expensive Maroma Resort and that was its main value to me, to be on Maroma Beach. I knew the Catalonia catered to a European crowd, French, Italian, Spanish and portugeuse... More

Stayed at this resort from April 17th to April 24th 2012 with my husband and 5 year old. After some research, we narrowed it down to Catalonia Playa Maroma. We simply loved our stay here. I do not know where to start, the beach is simply amazing. The emerald green water is perfectly clean and crystal clear. We found some... More

We stayed here in early March. The weather was not the best and the ocean was red flagged everyday. I have heard it is great snorkelling right off this beach but we did not have the opportunity. This is a very clean place, great food and prep, especially in the al la carte restaurants. We do not speak french, italian... More

We are really happy about our choice, the beach was perfect. The hotel has very nice personal, even the animation team was funny. The rooms are very large and clean. There are at least 5 different restorants here with different food. The food is always tasty, the only bad thing is the lack of seafood there, but you may compensate... More

My husband and I spent two weeks at Catalonia Playa Maroma. For the first week, we were joined by 20 of our family and friends for our wedding at the end of the week. The second week, we were alone for our honeymoon. Both weeks were spectacular. The highlights were definitely the staff. We truly felt like royalty at the... More

Nothing wrong with this resort. I speak very little Spanish however my husband and I are perfectly bilingual (French & English). I do not care that no one (tourists) speaks French or English. Actually it is part of the culture and travelling. French Canadians were starting to arrive and I was glad we were leaving, too much "French" talking people... More

After the long bumpy ride you'll be surprised by the resort. Clean and all staff is very friendly. During our stay it was mostly Italian and French - but we didn't care. The privileged check in was smooth and quick - our room was ready before 3 and spot less. The only complaints were they took the bathrobes from the... More

I am at Catalonia right now and want to give a fair warning to anyone who does not speak Spanish, Italian or French. DO NOT COME HERE! I arrived on the 4th and I leave on the 18th, I speak a little spanish and still finding it hard to communicate. I'm staying in the suite with the pool and luckily... More

We found a last minute Priviliged deal to this hotel. We checked on Trip Advisor and decided to book it. We flew from Madrid on Air Europa. We had previously booked our seats and thought we would be OK, but my partner is tall and had hardly any room for his legs. As soon as the people in front sat... More
