Catalina Overview
Catalina by Lennar opened its models in October 2013, part of The Paseos' second wave of development, and built out through roughly 2015. It is a gated, all two-story neighborhood with five floor plans, and Summerlin's own listing notes a pocket park inside the community, a small amenity most village neighborhoods route around rather than through.
The neighborhood's position on this side of The Paseos delivers some of the village's better Red Rock Canyon views, and Lennar's early-2010s product came with energy-efficiency upgrades as standard. The result is a gated, newer-feeling neighborhood whose buyers tend to be families and relocating households who want modern finishes without the price of the 2017-era gates farther west.
Homes & Floor Plans
Lennar released five two-story floor plans in Catalina, spanning roughly 2,000 to 3,200 square feet with about 3 to 4 bedrooms. Model names and options varied by phase, so confirm the specific plan against the home.
Five plans
Lennar offered five two-story designs at opening, giving buyers a genuine range within one gated community.
Size & beds
About 2,000 to 3,200 sq ft, typically 3 to 4 bedrooms, built 2013 to 2015.
In-community park
A pocket park sits inside the community, per Summerlin's official neighborhood listing, a rarity in the village.
Market context, as of late 2025 / early 2026
Catalina resales commonly sit in the upper-middle of the Paseos market, around or above the village median of roughly $825,000 reported in Q4 2025, with the better-view lots at the top of the range. The neighborhood's newer build dates and gated setting keep demand steady, but every sale depends on plan, condition and timing; conditions change, so ask for current comparable sales.
HOA context: Catalina carries the Summerlin master fee, currently described around $69 per month for the Summerlin West portion of the village, plus village and sub-association dues commonly in the $75 to $150 range for single-family homes in The Paseos. Exact fees depend on the specific home.
Where Is Catalina?

- Red Rock Canyon views on many streets
- Minutes from Paseos Park and village trails
- Short drive to Downtown Summerlin and Red Rock Resort

Lifestyle & Local Context
Catalina's pocket park is the neighborhood's living room: kids play there after school while parents walk the loop, and the gated streets mean the park stays a family space rather than a public draw. The western position of the neighborhood puts the Red Rock escarpment in the daily picture, which owners never quite stop appreciating.
The rest of the week works like all of west Summerlin: village trails for bikes and runs, Paseos Park for organized play, Charleston corridor for errands, Downtown Summerlin for shopping and the ballpark, and Red Rock Canyon for the weekend reset. For relocating families, Catalina answers the questions that matter, schools, safety, space, and it does it in a home that is still comparatively recent.
