Developer Profiles

A determination to consistently exceed guest expectations, coupled with an unwavering commitment to excellence, has made the Catania Hospitality Group what it is today: one of the most respected and trusted family owned hotel/restaurant groups in southeastern Massachusetts.

Founded in 1973 by Patriarch Vincent “V. J.” Catania, the company has grown from a single family restaurant on Cape Cod to an award-winning collection of resorts, spas and dining establishments. V. J. instilled his high standards and work ethic in his six children, who have each contributed to the company’s success over the past thirty-five years. Second generation management now includes William Catania, President; Steven Catania, VP and Debra Catania, VP. They are proud to announce their newest venture, the first full service private residence club in Massachusetts. The Catanias are personally overseeing every aspect of the design, construction, management and maintenance of the Cape Codder Residence Club to ensure that your time here always exceeds your expectations.
