![Catalina Island or know locally as Isla Catalina is a small island located about one and a half miles from the mainland of the Dominican Republic. It was one of the stops on our cruise.

It is a beautiful little island with not much infrastructure, but a beautiful stretch of beach with turquoise water and white sandy shores. It is the ideal location to just sit back kick up your feet up and enjoy some R&R.

There is no front desk/reception. This wasn't a problem, but you'll need to call or WhatsApp in advance to get the key code for your room entry. No big deal. Good location, good sized room, strong air conditioning. Very little soundproofing between rooms, so you'll be reliant on the other guests ...
