We love the Catamaran Resort Hotel in Mission Beach - Mission Bay area of San Diego. Everything is close by however we love going there and having paddle boards, boat rentals, private beach area and pool area with outdoor restaurant areas and amazing ocean views. The kids have a blast and we avoid all the beach congestion and parking issues and have a relaxed time there. Beach bay front rooms are great places for birthday parties and spending time with family and friends. I live in Mission Beach and use this as the ultimate stay cation spot and the kids have a blast running from the beach to make sand castles to the pool and playing free video games. Staff is awesome - Crystal at the front desk was great and very accommodating to get us a room with a sleeper couch, Ben the pool guy is super courteous and always has a warm towel for evening swimmers when a slight chill hits the air and Jesus and the bell staff people were very gracious and kind bringing in birthday cake, presents and luggage for mom and the kids. If you want to hit the beach and boardwalk it is right across the street and tons of good restaurants are a short stroll away. We live in San Diego and could go anywhere but this is by far our favorite spot!
