Fastidiously clean and well managed cat resort. Staff are very professional and friendly and take time to look after your furry family. Rooms are very comfortable with plenty of stimulation. We provided our own food for our boys and they've come home content and plump. Longer stays can be stressful but our boys adjusted to the new surroundings and seems happy. More frequent updates would be appreciated (it's upsetting being away from our lil guys) otherwise the service is exceptional. Thanks for your care.

Top quality, local and trusted cat hotel! The fact this place has been around for 20 years and had many return visitors was the first indication this would be the best place for my pet. My cat Dove stayed here while we completed our move, and even before she arrived the team was in contact with me for how best to meet her needs. For a cat stressed out by transit and unable to be near other cats at the time, they recommended and set up perfect accommodations with a first time guest in mind. Dove enjoyed privacy, the peace of a beautiful catio and lovely grounds full of critters to look at, attention and her favorite foods--all included in the competitively-priced package. The facility is also super clean, everyone is professional, friendly and proud of their work! For any future cat hotel stays, Cooinda is the first choice! Thank you, everyone!

We have recently picked up our cat up from her first stay at Cooinda Cat Resort, and she seems very happy and content after her ‘resort’ holiday. She has had her diet stuck too, which is no small achievement as our girl likes her food. She obviously had her time in the outdoor cages as can be seen from the update photo they sent. The entire cattery was lovely and clean, I could see that clearly on my walk to Athena’s cage day I dropped her off. The staff were also very helpful and reassuring. A little pricey but the cats are well cared for!

Luna is so happy and clearly well cared for after her stay. Her coat is super shiny, she smells great and she is much less stressed/clingy than I thought she would be after being separated for the first time! The resort is beautiful and calm and they were really accommodating and considerate when my flights were cancelled and plans kept changing. Definitely worth the price and will be back in October 💕

My fur baby Oki had his first staycation at Cooinda last week. He loved it! I have been a Cooinda client for over 16 years and have absolute confidence and trust in their care and concern for my precious pets. Wouldn't take them anywhere else. Great environment and staff. Thanks, Cooinda!
