Why this destination is a must-visit

La Pineda is a laid-back coastal resort on the Costa Dorada in Catalonia, nestled between Salou and Tarragona. With its wide sandy beach, family-friendly atmosphere and nearby theme parks, La Pineda is an ideal destination for beach holidays with children or quiet getaways by the sea.

Top attractions:

  • Aquopolis Costa Dorada: one of the region's largest water parks, with slides, wave pools, dolphin shows and areas designed for all ages.
  • Spa & Wellness Aquum: A modern spa centre offering pools, saunas and treatments — a perfect escape for adults.
  • Pineda Promenade (Passeig de Pau Casals): A pleasant beachfront path lined with sculptures, palm trees, and cafés and restaurants.
  • Parc de la Torre d’en Dolça: A peaceful green space with walking trails, picnic areas and a historic tower nearby.
  • Evening Street Markets: Seasonal markets offering souvenirs, local crafts and snacks in the summer.

Best beaches:

  • Platja de La Pineda: A wide Blue Flag beach with fine golden sand, calm waters and full facilities, ideal for families with children.
  • Cala Crancs (nearby in Cap Salou): A beautiful, secluded cove with clear waters, perfect for snorkelling.
  • Platja dels Prats: A more tranquil section of La Pineda’s coastline, great for sunbathing away from the main promenade.
  • Playa Larga (Salou): A nearby beach with shallow waters and a natural setting, connected by the coastal Camí de Ronda path.

Family-friendly activities:

  • Aquopolis Water Park: This park is full of attractions that are perfect for children, and the dolphinarium is always a hit with younger visitors.
  • Beach playgrounds and inflatables: There are several beachfront play zones and floating water parks in the summer.
  • Mini-golf and amusement arcades: Found along the promenade, they offer easy, casual family fun.
  • Boat trips depart from Salou Port. Just a short drive away, they offer pirate cruises and dolphin-spotting excursions.
  • PortAventura World: This massive theme park complex is only 10 minutes away and includes PortAventura Park, Ferrari Land and Caribe Aquatic Park.

Local gastronomy:

  • Arroz caldoso: A soupy rice dish with seafood that is rich in flavour and perfect to enjoy by the sea.
  • Tapas by the beach: Try local favourites such as patatas bravas, grilled cuttlefish and gambas al ajillo.
  • Fideuà is a noodle-based seafood dish similar to paella and is often served with alioli.
  • Crema catalana: the local version of crème brûlée, infused with citrus and cinnamon.
  • Cava: Catalonia’s signature sparkling wine — ideal for toasting your holiday.

Nearby attractions:

  • Tarragona: A UNESCO World Heritage city just 15 minutes away with Roman ruins, a beautiful cathedral and a charming old town.
  • Salou: A more lively destination offering shops, nightlife and entertainment.
  • Cambrils: This traditional fishing village has excellent seafood restaurants and a quiet, family-friendly atmosphere.
  • The Delta de l’Ebre Natural Park: This protected wetland area is about an hour’s drive away and is great for birdwatching and bike rides.
  • Mont-roig del Camp and the Hermitage of Mare de Déu de la Roca: A scenic viewpoint and historic site inland from the coast.

Todo excelente. Todo. Recepción, limpieza, comida... El spa muy completo. La instructora de ioga Gabriela espectacular.
El horario del desayuno impide poder hacer las clases de aquagym y ioga, a primera hora. Una pena que no se pueda compaginar.

Sitio al que hemos estado en 4ocasiones y con vuestra oferta nos salio algo mas barato. Es un gran lugar donde desconectar.
La cena es de 20 a 22 pues a las 21:25 quedaban cuatro trocitos de churrasco y no hacian mas, quien venga mas tarde cenara las sobras….o nada. Poca variedad de buffet pero lo que hay es de calidad y bueno. No es acorde a un 5 estrellas.

Todo genial. Unos días de ensueño
Por poner algo para mejorar, la velocidad de los ascensores, un poco lentos, lo que hacía que tuviéramos que esperar más, lo único. Lo demás todo genial.

Practicammente todo perfecto!! Personal muy atento y amable, habitacion genial, grande y muy limpia. En general muy buen hotel, repetiremos seguro
Poca variedad en el buffet aunque lo que había estaba muy bueno. La braseria estaba cerrada todos los días que estuvimos. Muy pocas plazas de parking para el tamaño del hotel, tuvimos que esperar al dia siguiente a que dejaran alguna libre los huéspedes que se iban.

Increibles instalaciones y ubicacion, de ahi que sea un 5 estrellas
Pequeños detalles que para ser un 5 estrellas quizas se deberian cuidar, como un secador decente, eleccion de almohadas, minibar, geles y jabon mejores..

Realmente es un lugar perfecto para desconectar unos días. El personal súper amable. Se respira tranquilidad en todo el complejo y disfrutas de unas instalaciones extraordinarias. La comida es buena un el spa es perfecto. Y la verdad es que al ser un sitio de esta categoría no es frecuentado por muchas familias con niños Con la cual cosa la piscina está tranquila, sin el ruido que producen los más pequeños . Perfecto lugar !!
