Destination

Salou is located on the Costa Dorada in Catalonia. It is one of Spain's most popular beach destinations. Known for its golden sandy beaches, family-friendly attractions and lively atmosphere, Salou is perfect for travellers seeking relaxation, adventure or a mix of both. With its proximity to major attractions such as PortAventura World, Salou is an excellent destination for families, couples and groups of friends.

Top Attractions:

  • PortAventura World: One of Europe's top theme parks, PortAventura offers thrilling rides, live shows and themed areas such as Far West, Polynesia and Mediterranean. It also includes Ferrari Land, dedicated to adrenaline-pumping attractions and the history of Ferrari.
  • Salou Promenade (Paseo Jaume I): This picturesque seafront promenade is perfect for a leisurely stroll. It's lined with palm trees, fountains and sculptures, including a statue of King Jaume I. Enjoy the lively atmosphere with plenty of cafes, shops and restaurants.
  • Cap Salou: A quieter area with picturesque coves such as Cala Crancs and Cala Font, perfect for snorkelling, sunbathing or enjoying peaceful coastal views.
  • Font Lluminosa: A nightly spectacle of lights, music and water jets at the end of the promenade, perfect for families and couples.

Beaches and coastal beauty:

  • Llevant Beach: The main beach in Salou, with golden sands, calm waters and excellent facilities including sunbeds, beach bars and water sports. It's ideal for families.
  • Ponent Beach: Another family friendly beach with a relaxed atmosphere, located closer to Cambrils. Great for swimming and watching the sunset.
  • Cala Llenguadets: A smaller, quieter beach surrounded by cliffs, perfect for those seeking a more tranquil setting.
  • Camí de Ronda coastal path: A scenic walk along the coastline with stunning views of the Mediterranean and access to hidden coves.

Family friendly activities:

  • Karting Salou: For families with older children, this go-kart track offers high-speed excitement in a safe and fun environment.

Local gastronomy:

  • Paella: Salou's coastal location means that paella with fresh seafood is a must. Many beachside restaurants serve excellent versions of this classic dish.
  • Fideuà: Similar to paella but made with pasta instead of rice, often served with fresh seafood and a squeeze of lemon.
  • Tapas bars: Explore the city's vibrant tapas scene and sample local specialities such as calamari, patatas bravas and gambas al ajillo (garlic prawns).

  • Cava: Pair your meal with a glass of Catalonia's sparkling wine for a refreshing touch.

Nearby day excursions:

8.9 Oswald Travelled with couple June 2025 Spacious facilities, you can see that they have changed the air conditioning, clean rooms, excellent pool area, the food is a bit limited in variety but very tasty.
Amplias instalaciones,se ve que han cambiado los A/A, habitaciones limpias, la zona de piscina excelente, la comida justita en variedad pero de muy buen sabor
We got a room with 2 double beds and there was very little space to open the closets. I only saw one bathroom in the pool area. They shouldn't charge 7€ to use the gym, the equipment is quite old.
Nos tocó una habitación con 2 camas matrimoniales y había muy poco espacio para abrir armarios. Sólo vi un baño en el área de la piscina, No deberían cobrar 7€ para usar el gimnasio, son equipos de bastante data

10 Angela Maria Travelled with couple June 2025 The truth is that the stay was very pleasant.
La verdad es que la estancia fue muy agradable
The fact that the rooms do not have the air conditioning remote control, every time you want to raise or lower the temperature, you have to call for them to do it.
El q las habitaciones no tengan el mando del aire acondicionado, cada q quieres subir o bajar la temperatura,tienes q llamar para q te lo hagan ellos.

9.4 Erika Travelled with family April 2025 The hotel and the room were great, very clean. The staff was super friendly, very hardworking and attentive to everything. The pool is great and the location is 10, within walking distance of Portaventura and the beach. We loved everything.
El hotel y la habitación estupenda, muy limpia. El personal súper amable, muy trabajadores y pendientes de todo. La piscina genial y la ubicación de 10, a poca distancia de Portaventura y de la playa. Nos ha encantado todo.
The only downside was the parking, every time we had to take the car it took us an hour to park and walk back to the hotel.
La única pega ha sido el aparcamiento, cada vez que teníamos que coger el coche luego tardábamos una hora entre aparcar y volver andando al hotel.
