From the moment we arrived at Villa Catalia,we realised this was not your typical Holiday let, more of a home from home, clean and tidy with lots of little touches to welcome guests.Shelly and Mark have provided pretty much everything needed to make theirs guests stay a comfortable, relaxing and enjoyable one.Travelling from the UK visiting family in Dana Point for many years this was the first time we have rented a property, it was so nice to have somewhere to relax, enjoy the sun and entertain family.The house is very well presented, comfortable beds and bedrooms, lovely bathrooms and ensuites, the kitchen is well stocked with everything needed to entertain, with a lovely breakfast bar, dining room and lounge area.The outside space and garden area is lovely for dining alfresco on the patio surrounded by the scent of the roses, the pool and spa on the upper level of the garden was amazing with pool toys provided.We did not get the opportunity to take up the offer of a cruise on their 'baby yacht' this trip, but there will be other opportunities when we are back in Dana PointEverything was exactly as described, Shelly and Mark were wonderful hosts, we always knew that they were at the end of the phone should we need them and nothing was too much trouble, we really did not want to leave. Thankyou Shelly and Mark.
