Frommer's Review
Right on Mission Bay, the Catamaran has its own beach, complete with watersports facilities. Built in the 1950s, the hotel has been fully renovated to modern standards without losing its trademark Polynesian theme. The atrium lobby holds a 15-foot waterfall and full-size dugout canoe; koi-filled lagoons meander through the property; and torches blaze after dark. Guest rooms -- in a 13-story building or one of the six two-story buildings -- have subdued South Pacific decor, and each has a balcony or patio. High floors of tower rooms have commanding views, and studios and suites have kitchenettes. A 9,300-square-foot spa was added in 2005, featuring a menu of South Pacific and Asian-inspired treatments. The Catamaran is within a few blocks of Pacific Beach's restaurant-and-nightlife scene; the resort's Moray's Lounge features live music nightly, as well. During the summer, kids can check out the daily Mad Science Kid's Camp, a hands-on, educational day camp.
