Salou: where the Costa Dorada truly sparkles

Did you know Salou literally shines? It’s not just a saying, the Costa Dorada gets its name from the quartz and mica in its sand, glowing like gold under the sun. But Salou is far more than stunning beaches, it’s a destination full of history and postcard-perfect corners.

  • The sunset lighthouse: For that unforgettable holiday moment, stroll along the wooden path to the Salou Lighthouse. It’s the wildest stretch of coastline and the place where you’ll truly understand the magic behind every “sunset” escape.

  • Footsteps of kings and pirates: The same seafront you walk today once saw King Jaume I set sail to conquer Mallorca. Follow the Camino de Ronda and you’ll trace ancient paths used by fishermen, and the occasional smuggler, hiding among hidden coves.

  • More than adrenaline: Yes, PortAventura is just around the corner, but don’t miss the Luminous Fountain, a true work of art designed by the same visionary behind Barcelona’s iconic fountains.

  • Our insider tip: Take an afternoon trip to nearby Reus, just 15 minutes away. Birthplace of Gaudí, home to stunning modernist architecture and the temple of vermouth culture. Order one in Plaça del Mercadal and experience Salou like a local.

Salou isn’t just a destination… it’s a glow you’ll never forget.


PortAventura World: Six Worlds, Endless Adventures

Get ready for unforgettable thrills at PortAventura Park, Spain's most visited theme park and one of Europe's top family destinations, located on the beautiful Costa Dorada.

Travel around the world in a single day as you explore six themed worlds, each packed with attractions, shows and unforgettable experiences.

Start in Mediterrània, where you'll be launched from 0 to 135 km/h in just three seconds on the legendary Furius Baco. Continue to lush Polynesia, home to tropical scenery and the refreshing Tutuki Splash.

In China, adrenaline reaches new heights with iconic roller coasters such as Dragon Khan and the spectacular Shambhala, while Mexico invites you to experience the breathtaking 100-metre drop of Hurakan Condor.

Head to Far West for a Wild West adventure with attractions like the wooden coaster Stampida and the immersive Uncharted: The Enigma of Penitence. Younger visitors will love SésamoAventura, a colourful world full of family attractions, including the interactive Street Mission.

Your adventure continues with spectacular live shows, themed restaurants and services such as Express Pass, helping you make the most of every minute.

And during the summer months, the fun continues at Caribe Aquatic Park, a tropical water park with slides, pools and attractions perfect for cooling off and creating unforgettable family memories.

Hotel for British people, buffet for British people, rubbish, chaos, disorganised, people jumping drunk into the pool at 3am, the buffet had frying tomatoes as if it was breakfast, and on top of that the chef would argue with you about it... I would never go back.

5 Jaume Travelled with family August 2026 Very low-quality food. Powdered milk. Tap water. Small portions. Packed with people. Tables crammed together.
Comida muy baja calidad. Leche en polvo. Agua del grifo. Comida escasa. Lleno de gente. Mesas superjuntas
Way too many people. Maybe if they welcomed a bit fewer guests, those staying would have a better experience. It all felt like a ranch. Even knowing it's only a 3-star hotel, the quality was very, very low.
Muchísimas. Quizas acogee un poquito menos de gente y asi estarán un poco mejor los que estan. Parecía todo de rancho. Sabiendo que es un 3 estrellas muy muy baja calidad

5.7 Fouad Travelled with couple August 2026 The mattresses dig into your back, the pillows are poor quality and I’ve left with neck pain. The first day I had to wait for hours in the hot room for maintenance to come and check the air conditioning problem. It turned out the air conditioning was set to a temperature the previous guest had left it at. You can’t adjust the air conditioning temperature yourself, there’s just a light switch to turn it on or off, and every time you want to change the temperature, you have to tell reception so they can come with the remote control and change it for you. They registered us again because our booking supposedly wasn’t in the system, even though we’d given them our ID, paid for the hotel car park, and received our room cards. What bothered me was that the receptionist came to knock on our door saying that it was up to us to sort out the problem and find a solution, when in the end it turned out it was a mistake on her side and I had to give our IDs again. In the afternoon I realised they hadn’t charged me the local taxes, so I went to reception to let them know and pay. The sunbeds and chairs by the pool are always reserved with towels even before the day starts. The mattresses were too short for me and my feet were left hanging off the end.
Los colchones te clavan sus melles la espalda, las almohadas de mala calidad y me ido con dolor del cuello, el primer día he tenido que esperar muchas en la habitación horas con calor que venga el servicio de mantenimiento para ver el problema del aire, el resulta que el aire acondicionado estaba a una temperatura que había dejado el anterior cliente. El aire acondicionado no se puede regular la temperatura, tiene un interruptor de luz para encender o apagar y cada vez que tienes que cambiar la temperatura tienes que avisar a la recepción para que vengas a cambiarla con mando a distancia. Me han vuelto a registrar porque no consta que nuestra reserva no está registrada y esto que hemos dado nuestro dni y hemos pagado el parking del hotel y nos han dado las tarjetas, lo que me ha molestado que ha venido la trabajadora de recepción a picar nuestra habitación diciéndome que tenemos nosotros que reglar un problema y buscar una solución, al final el problema era de la trabajadora y he vuelto a dar los dni. Por la tarde me he dado cuenta que no me han cobrado las tasas y me ido a la recepción para avisar para pagar, las tumbonas y las sillas de la pisina están permanente reservadas con toallas antes de empezar la jornada. Los colchones eran cortos para mi y los pies se quedan fuera del colchón.
A complete disaster, except for the restaurant, which is well managed by the staff. - Change the mattresses and pillows. - Temperature control.
Todo un desastre menos el restaurante que esta bien controlado por los trabajadores. -Cambiar los colchones y las almohadas. - Regulador de temperatura.

1 Laura Travelled with couple August 2026 A very disappointing experience and lack of solutions Our stay at the hotel was very disappointing. We arrived around 11pm, tired after being at Portaventura, and the keycard stopped working so we couldn't get into our room. After several attempts and around 40-45 minutes of waiting, they finally moved us to another room, so we got in almost an hour later than planned. In addition, we had the buffet included and had previously confirmed that they could prepare us a cold dinner. However, when we arrived there was only a plate for one person, with insufficient quantity and poor quality. They didn't offer us any alternatives, so we ended up not having dinner. To make matters worse, the next day we went to complain and the receptionist was arrogant and unprofessional, without apologising or showing any willingness to help us. A truly regrettable experience. We won't be coming back.
Experiencia muy decepcionante y falta de soluciones Nuestra estancia en el hotel fue muy decepcionante. Llegamos alrededor de las 23:00, cansados, porque estabamos en Portaventura, y la tarjeta dejó de funcionar y no podíamos entrar en la habitación. Tras varios intentos y aproximadamente 40-45 minutos de espera, finalmente nos cambiaron de habitación, entrando casi una hora más tarde de lo previsto. Además, teníamos el buffet incluido y habíamos confirmado previamente que podían prepararnos una cena fría. Sin embargo, al llegar solo encontramos un plato para una persona, con una cantidad y calidad insuficientes. No nos ofrecieron ninguna alternativa, por lo que acabamos sin cenar. Para empeorar la situación, al dia siguiente fuimos a reclamar y el recepcionista tuvo un trato prepotente y poco profesional, sin pedir disculpas ni mostrar intención de ayudarnos. Una experiencia realmente lamentable. No volveremos.

9.4 Maria Travelled with couple August 2026 If, like me, you're looking for Mediterranean cuisine, it's perfect. If you want a buffet where you don't spend ages choosing, it's also perfect. It's not a huge buffet, but the quality is very good, and the cooks and waiters are excellent. It's true that if you go right when the dining room opens, the queue is impressive, but I went later and there was no queue, and they help you find a table so you don't wander around searching. The pool has two lifeguards and there are no balls or floats allowed. It's a family hotel with entertainment for both adults and children. I loved it!
Si buscas como yo comida de cocina Mediterrània es perfecto,si buscas un bufet donde tardes poco en elegir perfecto ,no es un bufet extenso pero calidad muy buena ,atencion cociner@s y camarer@s perfecto .Si es cierto que si vas en cuanto abre horario comedor la cola impressiona pero yo iba mas tarde y no habia cola y te ayudan a encontrar mesa ,no das vueltas buscando.Piscina con 2 socorristas y nada de pelotas ni flotadores,hotel familiar con animacion para grandes y pequeños ,a mi me encantó😁
Some days it smelled like in many beach hotels, but it was just occasional. The pool was like in almost all hotels—people put their towels down and then leave.
Algun dia olia como en muchos hoteles de playa pero algo puntual ,la piscina como en casi todos los hoteles la gente pone toalla y se va .

8 María Del Carmen Travelled with family August 2026 The hotel was wonderful, huge, with two excellent pools and a large dining room as well. The rooms were spacious and, importantly for smokers, there was a terrace where smoking was allowed. A top score to Hugo at reception.
El hotel maravilloso, enorme con dos piscinas estupendas y un comedor grande también. Las habitaciones amplias y sobretodo para los fumadores una terraza en la que se podía fumar. Un 10 a Hugo de recepción.
The worst thing was a chef’s rudeness after my daughter accidentally used tongs to pick up food for my two‑year‑old grandson. The rules are not respected at all: the pool is supposed to close at 8:30 but at 10 and 11 people are still swimming, while a lifeguard kicked us out at 8. Sunbeds are reserved despite signs saying they must not be. The entertainment was also only so‑so.
Lo peor la mala educación de un cocinero por equivocarse mi hija de pinzas al coger la comida para mi nieto de 2 años. El que las normas no se respetan en absoluto la piscina se cierra a las 8 y media y a las 10 y 11 la gente se baña y a nosotros un socorrista nos hecho a las 8. Las hamacas se reservan a pesar de que pone que no. Y la animación bueno regulín también.

7.6 Karol Bitalis Travelled with couple August 2026 What I liked most was the pool, the bed was quite comfortable and the air conditioning was very powerful — we even felt cold because there’s no remote to adjust it, but otherwise fine.
Lo que mas me ha gustado, ha sido la piscina, la cama bastante cómoda y el aire acondicionado potente, incluso pasamos frio porque no hay mando oara regularlo, pero bien..
1st: what I didn’t like was the bad smell coming from the bathroom — it smelled like sewage and filled the whole room. 2nd: the pool loungers — there is a sign saying they must not be reserved, yet at 8am when I went for breakfast there weren’t any free… towels had been placed on them since the night before and the staff DID NOTHING AND SAID NOTHING. 3rd: food was meagre, with very little variety. On Friday evening there was no meat at dinner, only fish… the other days were more or less the same.
1ero: lo que no me ha gustado es el mal olor que salia del baño era una peste a cloaca que inundaba toda la habitación. 2do: las tumbonas de la piscina, hay cartel que no se debe reservar y a las 8 cuando pase a desayunar ya no habia ninguna libre...estaban puestas las toallas desde la noche anterior y los trabajadores NO HACEN NI DICEN NADA. 3ero: comida escasa, casi no había variedad, el viernes noche, en la cena no había nada de carne, solo pescado... los demás dias mas o menos.

7.7 Arantxa Travelled with family August 2026 The location is excellent. The facilities themselves are good: **swimming pool**, **restaurant**, **room**…
La ubicación es estupenda. Las instalaciones en sí son buenas: piscina, restaurante, habitación…
What stood out most to us was the lack of cleanliness around the pool area: cups, cigarette butts on the floor, fingernails… considering people walk barefoot and small children crawl around, it’s certainly not very hygienic. As a suggestion for improvement, it would also be advisable for the room air conditioning to have a more effective system so guests can programme the temperature they want rather than having one imposed on them.
Lo que más nos ha llamado la atención es la falta de limpieza en toda la zona de la piscina: vasos, cigarros en el suelo, uñas… teniendo en cuenta que se anda descalzo y hay niños pequeños gateando no es lo más higiénico desde luego. Como aspecto de mejora también sería recomendable que el aire acondicionado de la habitación tuviera otro sistema más efectivo para que los clientes pudiéramos programar la tempera deseado y no la que nos imponen.

4.9 Nassiba Travelled with family August 2026 I wanted to share my opinion about the hotel because, honestly, I was expecting something different after seeing the photos. On entering the room we found quite a bit of dust and the air conditioning could not be set below 25 °C. To have it set to a lower temperature required an extra charge, and even paying, the temperature was not what we expected, so we were quite hot. As for the food, I felt there was little variety and it could be improved considerably. The positive is that the hotel is very quiet. We were able to rest and switch off because there wasn’t much noise, and we appreciated that. Overall, I think the facilities and service could be better maintained so the experience matches what is shown in the photos.
Quería dejar mi opinión sobre el hotel porque, sinceramente, esperaba encontrar algo diferente después de ver las imágenes. Al entrar en la habitación encontramos bastante polvo y el aire acondicionado no se podía bajar de 25 °C. Para poder ponerlo a una temperatura más baja había que pagar aparte, y aun pagando, la temperatura no era la que esperábamos, así que pasamos bastante calor. En cuanto a la comida, me pareció que había poca variedad y creo que podría mejorar bastante. Lo positivo es que el hotel es muy tranquilo. Hemos podido descansar y desconectar porque no había mucho ruido, y eso sí que lo hemos agradecido. En general, creo que las instalaciones y el servicio podrían estar más cuidados para que la experiencia esté a la altura de lo que muestran las imágenes.
