Concierge "The Catalina is a rock 'n' roll mod fantasy: There's red shag carpeting everywhere, curvy white furniture, and thumping music in the lobbies and out by the pool."
OysterUpper-middle-range
"Designed for randy 20-somethings who can rage until 4 a.m., the Catalina can be a godsend." Full review
Travel + Leisure "The Catalina takes the value-added approach to South Beach nightlife and succeeds without feeling cheap or cheesy." Full review
Time Out "The flagship boutique of the South Beach Group, the Catalina is fun, trendy and affordable, if a bit rough around the edges." Full review

Ask for a quiet room if you don't like a party.
Star Service "The location here, across the beach from the Marseilles and kitty-corner from the Delano and SLS, is about as close to the heat as you can get without having your hand in the fire." Full review
Gayot "It is actually, as its budget prices suggest, across Collins Avenue from this uptown Sobe strip's ultra-upscale oceanfront hotels."
BlackBook "Here is where you stay if you want to do all the chic hotel bar-hopping at the Delano, Shore Club, et. al, but would rather not pay to stay there."
Fodor's "The Catalina is the budget party spot in the heart of South Beach's hottest block and attracts plenty of 20somethings with its free nightly drink hour." Full review
Not For Tourists "Tendy hipster art deco hotel without the trendy hipster prices."
Afar Magazine "As for the cost, it’s the perks that make the Catalina worth the price tag, which is reasonable compared to its oceanfront neighbors." Full review

"The Cadet is a different type of South Beach experience. There are no views of the beach, and the vibe is more B&B than SoBe Cool." Full review
Rough Guide Star
"Tranquil boutique hotel, with a fresh, clean look enhanced by bamboo floors and a patio-garden where you can enjoy a glass of wine."
Time Out "On a sleepy backstreet, this low-rise 1930s hotel is an undiscovered gem." Full review
Gayot "Opened in December 1941, this B&B was named in memory of the WWII training cadets who lived there."
Lonely Planet "The Cadet wins our award for most creative embellishments in its rooms." Full review
