Catamaran Hotel Marina

The view from the hotel and local surroundings were fantastic. The hotel was old in style and needed some woodwork and drainage updates but was clean. The local area was all closed down for seasonal break so no lunch option or after dinner drinks / entertainment. The hotel bar closed as quickly as they could clear "DINNER" drinks. WHY did I quote DINNER - there wasn't any edible food for main courses despite me clearly communicating my requirements in advance. All PIG and FISH which I cant eat. I was advised to eat soup starters and veggies - worked OK until they put fish in the soup. They did not appreciate the words "Diet" or "Zero" or "Slimline" when ordering drinks. They did not know what "GF" meant - effected another guest. I have only just recovered from approx 10 days of food poisoning caused down there - I suspect the only "edible dinner" served - a beef lasagne was contaminated with PIG (supermarkets here do that!). And for 10 days' stay - pop-quiz - guess how many room services you get by default? One or Two? There are no other answers! And communal areas weren't dusted daily against mossies On the positive side, breakfasts were OK and it was easy to get up given no normal bar hours the evening before. I would go back to Antigua but defo not this hotel - the food was DISGUSTING

Visited with exclusive group. Lovely character full hotel with brilliant staff. Location is fantastic with the bay to ourselves apart from the pelicans. Water is very gentle but deep enough to swim. Although many bars and attractions closed for off season, would happily return

Fabulous harbour front Inn with great views of Falmouth Harbour. The staff are attentive and help when required. Nice continental breakfast, with local fresh fruits. Bottled water is supplied in abundance. Next to the harbour, Marina, and fabulous Croggies restaurant.

A truly charming place in a wonderful location. It is really peaceful and the grounds lovely. We enjoyed the amenities and the facilities it had to offer including use of the kayaks and the complimentary boat rides over to English harbour town. Being family- run it has that friendly feel and they make you feel really welcome. A few upgrades to the rooms are needed as the hardware is looking and feeling tired, although the shabby chic vibe is a reminder you are in the Caribbean. Breakfasts were yummy and varied! We always had enough.

Amazing quaint personable and clean! Perfect location, close to English and Falmouth harbor. We rented a jeep and drove the whole island day and night for a week with our family of 4, and this was the perfect home base. Great daily housekeeping, and my little girl loved the 8 am knocking for breakfast delivery each day! We loved it and would def return! Bring mosquito spray!

This is a lovely hotel in a beautiful and tranquil setting. I stayed in one of the superior view apartments which was spacious and well situated including a kitchenette and large wardrobe. I loved my early morning coffees overlooking the calm and peaceful harbour. The private beach and small pool had plenty of sun beds as well as options in the shade, with easy access to the shallow sea. The breakfasts had variety and a good selection, and were a great opportunity to admire the views and the antics of the pelicans diving for fish! I would have liked more choices for the evening meal but mass catering isn’t easy and I certainly didn’t starve! The bar is run as a separate entity and could probably benefit from some focus to bring the standards and ambience up to match the rest of the hotel. Having said that the Cuban night that they arranged for us was one of the highlights of my holiday. I would definitely return to the Catamaran again, thank you to Feona, Colin and all the team.

Just got back from a fabulous holiday. Hotel was a little tired but the staff made up for this in their friendliness and great hospitality. Nothing was too much trouble and we were greeted everyday with a smile. My room was clean and had everything needed for a lovely beach holiday. Would not hesitate to recommend. Janet

We stayed for a night. This hotel was on Falmouth beach. The room was large with a kitchenette. A large closet and A/C. A good size balcony. A bathroom with toiletries. The shower was ok a bit difficult to get the temperature right though. The hotel is directly on a private beach with plenty of sunbeds and cabanas. Breakfast is continental and served directly to your room. It was surprisingly good with hot toast and sausage and potato. Fruit and jams.

This hotel could be a gem - the location is charming but the hotel is dated, run down and disorganised. The lady owner is rude and complacent - guests are clearly an inconvenience to her - and she gives no direction to a lazy, slow and incompetent staff. Breakfast was poor in terms of quality and variety; dinner was marginally better but erratic. The evening chef did his best but he had no help and worked very long hours. There were no sun umbrellas on the beach or by the pool, and little shade, so several in our party got badly burnt on the first day. Beach and room towels were old and thin. Despite being old fashioned and rickety, with tired bedding and dubious pillows, the rooms were well cleaned. This must be the shabbiest and most unfriendly hotel in Antigua.
