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.
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.

Very helpful staff
Pools too cold
Very good
El personal en general encantador, en comedor, recepción y servicio de habitaciones.
las camas son grandes y cómodas.
The food is rather repetitive, although it is tasty; there are too many fried dishes for our liking.
Large groups of young men — football teams, etc. — make it impossible to relax and create a lot of noise. The curtains are not blackout and a lot of light comes in. The nearby nightclub can be heard from the rooms all night. I have never tried such poor breakfast coffee; I think it could be improved.
Evening entertainment is limited, and when they play music by the pool it is very loud and you cannot rest properly.
La comida es bastante repetitiva, aunque está buena, demasiadas frituras para nuestro gusto.
Grupos grandes de chicos jóvenes-equipos de fútbol etc que no dejan descansar y producen mucho ruido.Las cortinas no son opacas y entra mucha luz.La discoteca cercana se escucha desde las habitaciones toda la noche la música.El café del desayuno nunca probé uno tan malo,creo que podrían mejorarlo.
La animación nocturna es escasa y cuando ponen música en la piscina es muy alta y no se puede descansar bien

Ubicación, precio, habitaciones limpias, hotel muy reformado y las piscinas.
Animation, for meals they charge €1.5 for the water and they also accommodate numerous excursions for minors, and therefore there is no tranquillity.

Hola, pues estuvimos muy bien, nos trataron y nos atendieron muy bien, los empleados tanto en recepción, como Buffet, limpieza, volveremos.
I think one thing that could be improved would be to have a few more elevators, but I think that’s impossible; anyway, overall it was a good stay, thank you.
Creo que una cosa, que mejoraria, seria que hubiera, algun asensor más, pero, creo que es imposible, pero de todas formas a sino una estancia buena en general, gracias.

Destacar la atención del personal de recepción, que tanto a la entrada como a la salida fueron muy amables, educadas y atentas. La habitación grande, con dos camas de matrimonio y comodas.
We stayed with Half Board and, fortunately, we did not take the full-board option. They must immediately improve the quality of the food; it is dreadful, insipid (you’d eat better in a hospital with a strict diet), with very little variety, buffet replenishment is very slow, queues form while waiting for any of the dishes that come back in no more than 4 seconds (2 mains, 1 tray of chips, meat stew) so don’t expect much more. As a first course, spaghetti and salad. For breakfast, the best you can eat is bread with butter. A buffet horror, to call it that, the worst I have ever had. It has been a complete disappointment. Urgent renovation of the bathroom is needed. The air conditioning is a Split unit (very good and it cools a lot), above the bed, so when it’s on it blows cold air directly onto your head. The temperature cannot be adjusted; it’s fixed at 22°C, and in the middle of the night you have to get up to switch it off at the switch. I will not return.
Estuvimos en media pensión y menos mal que no contratamos la completa. Deben mejorar de forma inmediata la calidad de la comida, es pésima, insulsa, (comes mejor en un hospital con dieta estringente), variedad muy escasa, reposición en el buffet muy lenta, se hacen filas esperando para que repongan alguno de los no más de 4 segundos platos (2 pecados, 1 bandeja patatas fritas, guiso de carne) no esperes encontrar mucho más. Como primero espaguetis y ensalada. Para el desayuno, lo mejor que podrás comer, pan con mantequilla. Un horror de buffet, por llamarlo así, el peor de toda mí vida. Ha sido una completa decepción. Falta renovación urgente del baño. El aíre acondicionado es un Split (muy bueno y enfría mucho), está encima de la cama, así que cuando lo tengas encendido te dará todo el aire frío directamente a la cabeza. No se puede regular la temperatura, está fija a 22° y a mitad de la noche te tienes que levantar a desconectarlo del interruptor. No repetiré.

La estancia en el hotel ha sido breve ya que apenas hay actividades ni otro tipo de ambientación programada. En las piscinas estuvimos muy a gusto ya que estando junio había poca gente y habían tumbonas.
The room was a nightmare! The bedspreads looked as though they had been on the bed since the hotel opened, the mattresses were extremely hard, the pillows were so uncomfortable we slept without them, and the wardrobes had a horrible smell of old wood, so we couldn’t put our clothes there; we kept our clothes in the suitcases for the entire stay. The food lacked variety and was of poor quality, and anything not spent on the food was used for the dinner. Verdura was scarce. The breakfast was fairly extensive.
La habitación un horror! Las colchas estarán desde que se abrió el hotel, los colchones durísimos, las almohadas mejor dormir sin y los armarios un olor a madera vieja horrible que no pudimos meter la ropa ahi, estuvimos con la ropa en las maletas toda la estancia. La comida sin variedad y de mala calidad y ademas lo que no se gastaba en la comida se ponía para la cena. Escasa verdura. El desayuno bastante completo.

Tranquilidad,y precio ajustado.
Improve the quality and variety of the breakfast, and also do not remove the food trays before the last hour of lunch or dinner service; it leaves a very bad impression on guests if food is missing or being cleared away prematurely during the hours set by the hotel.
A mejorar la calidad y variedad del desayuno,y también no retirar las bandejas de comida antes de la última hora de servicio de almuerzo o cena,queda muy mal de cara al cliente que dentro del horario establecido por el hotel falte comida o se esté retirando de forma prematura.

El personal encantador. Destacar a Irene, que fue un amor en el trato. Muy buena ubicación, cerca de la avenida de tiendas de ropa y comida. Al acabar la calle de tiendas, tienes la playa. En la que se ven unos atardecer los espectaculares y puedes tomarte algo mientras lo ves. Piscinas que cubren desde el tobillo perfecto para bebés. Sombrillas y hamacas. Servicio de bar en la piscina.
The food at the hotel was terrible. Very little variety. If I ever returned to this hotel, I’d only pay for the room; I’d find somewhere else to eat, since there are plenty of options out there that are reasonably priced.
Between the two pools… there was a cockroach.
The balcony separating one room from the neighbor’s is divided by a sort of metal curtain, but you can see everything. I don’t know to what extent they thought this was a good idea—zero privacy.
La comida del Hotel nefasta. Muy poca variedad. Si volviese a este Hotel solamente pagaría alojamiento, me buscaría la vida por fuera para comer, que tienes bastantes opciones y bien de precio.
Entre las dos piscinas… había una cucaracha.
El balcón que separa una habitación de la del vecino, está separada por una especie de cortina de hierro pero que se ve todo. No se hasta qué punto han considerado que esto sea buena idea, privacidad 0.
