Pleasant surprise

Went with my family of 5 ranging from 11-17 year old children. We booked last minute and had no expectations arriving at the resort. We all were surprised at how good a time we had. Staff was mostly responsive from the minute we arrived until the moment we left. Food was as expected for an all-inclusive with variability in taste and offerings, but overall was above average. Everyone found something they really liked at every meal. Beach was excellent with good shade, soft sand and clear water. Pool activities were just enough to keep you entertained and not too much that the music was annoying and disruptive. Overall layout is really interesting and makes you feel like you are on vacation. Beds were comfortable and, after the neighboring Secrets resort wound down around 10pm, very quiet. Was there some staff that seemed disinterested and ? Yes, but you will find that anywhere. Will we return? Definitely, I think we found our vacation spot moving forward.
Great beach!

This hotel has one of the most beautiful beaches on the Riviera Maya. Clean, turquoise waters with very little or no seaweeds (no sargasses). Many restaurants. Asian, Mexican and Grill were my favorites. Privilege option is worth it. Lots of space and chairs on the beach, even in the shade. Pool is on the small side. Beds are rather firm.
Not going back

The main Pro - Ocean was beautiful. Not geared towards young adults at all. Resort was completely quiet by 6:30 each evening. Even the disco they had each evening was generally empty. Management was extremely rude and had different standard’s depending on who you were. Food was not good with the exception of the tacos at lunch.
Great Resort

We had a wonderful stay at Catalonia Maroma. The food was amazing, lots of variety and very fresh. Wonderful service at the pool, restaurants, buffet, and bars. Pool was great and lots of room to float around. We stayed in the building closest to the pool and it was convenient. Would give this resort 10/10 and will definitely be back.

We frequent the Catalonia hotel chains, usually the adults only as we are child free but every year something always brings us back to Catalonia Maroma. The lush jungle grounds teaming with wildlife and stunning meticulously groomed white sands of Maroma beach. We recommend upgrading to privileged which gives you access to the Beloved restaurant, the food and view are well worth it Guiovany is always there with a welcome smile. Any issues (which we've rarely experienced) are quickly solved by guest services thanks to Abagail and Arely. While the spa doesn't feel very opulent Alicia gave me the best facial and massage I've ever had! We always find the staff smiling and helpful despite the language barrier from Sergio at the front desk to all the wait and bar staff especially our good friend Martha.
