“We loved staying in hotel Santa Catalina. It was right next to the surfing beach (short walk) and a short walk to the Centro. The room was so clean and had a little area for having a few drinks and snacks outside. The staff are so friendly. There are lots of games you can play beside the restaurant e.g. chess, bingo, pool, darts etc. It has a lovely view of the more experienced surfer beach too. We loved our stay here.”
