Why this destination is a must-visit
Curiosities of Santa Susanna: Pirates, Towers and a Green Oasis
Santa Susanna, on the Maresme coast (Barcelona), is far more than a classic sun-and-beach destination. Here, pirate legends meet modern holiday comfort in a setting that surprises at every turn.
-
An “invisible” wall against pirates
Santa Susanna boasts one of the highest concentrations of watchtowers along the Catalan coast — 7 of the original towers are still preserved. During the 15th and 16th centuries, Barbary pirate attacks were so frequent that locals built these towers to signal with bonfires and seek refuge. Today, some are integrated into private farmhouses, while others can be visited. -
The “Oasis of the Maresme”
Unlike other coastal towns dominated by concrete, Santa Susanna stands out for its smart urban planning. The hotel area sits by the sea, while the historic village rises toward the hills. Between them? Expansive green areas, fields and parks that create a true “natural resort” atmosphere. -
A destination with a Family Quality seal
Santa Susanna was the first municipality in Catalonia to receive the Family Tourism Destination certification. Everything is designed with families in mind — from the famous “Cuc” tourist train winding through town to playgrounds set right on the beach sand. -
Where the Tordera River meets the sea
Near Santa Susanna lies the mouth of the Tordera River, marking the edge of the Maresme region. This protected natural area reveals a completely different landscape, rich in vegetation and birdlife, offering a refreshing contrast to the urban coastline. -
A paradise for cyclists and sports lovers
Cyclists from across Europe flock here. Santa Susanna offers a high-level Bike Station and routes that connect sea level to the Montnegre-Corredor Natural Park within just a few kilometers. Start your morning by the Mediterranean waves and, within an hour, ride through oak forests 500 meters above sea level. -
Did you know?
Many historic Catalan farmhouses in Santa Susanna still preserve defensive loopholes and machicolations — authentic reminders of a time when living by the sea meant being prepared for pirate attacks.
Costa del Maresme: peaceful beaches close to Barcelona
TheCosta del Maresme, located just north of Barcelona, is an ideal destination if you want to combine relaxed beach days with easy access to one of Europe’s most exciting cities.

El hotel estaba al 100 % de ocupación pero no se notaba tampoco mucho agobio. La zona de la piscina es amplia, tiene bastantes hamacas y la gente no las reserva dejando la toalla todo el día. Especial mención para todo el personal del hotel, tanto recepción, personal de limpieza, camareros, personal de piscina. Todos muy amables, simpáticos y profesionales. La habitación nos la cambiaron por una superior, y era espectacular. El día de salida del hotel, te dejan disfrutar de las instalaciones y del parking hasta que te quieras ir. De la zona, es el hotel más "tranquilo". Repetiremos.
There’s always room for improvement: more variety at breakfast and lunch. Sometimes items ran out and weren’t restocked, I assume due to lack of stock. If I could ask for more, more pools or a larger pool.
Siempre se puede mejorar: más variedad en desayuno y comidas. A veces, se acababan las cosas y no se reponían por falta de stock, supongo. Por pedir, más número de piscinas, o piscina más grande.

La habitación y la limpieza correctas, pero el resto...
The pool is too small for the number of guests. Also, the water is very dirty — I suppose partly due to inadequate physical and chemical treatment, and certainly to a large extent because nobody showers before entering: many probably won’t, and others (as in our case) simply couldn’t, since, surprisingly, there is only one shower (double — one side with an open hose and the other with a diffuser) and it didn’t work on any of the days we were there, despite us informing the staff. This is really poor. The food was one day rather weak and another acceptable, but nothing to rave about, except perhaps the fruit. I would dock at least one and a half stars. And finally, note the fantastic view we had of a scorched area with a metal fence, from a first-floor room directly above the air-conditioning units. It was frightening to step out onto the balcony because of the noise and heat they gave off. We won’t be returning, even if they paid us.
La piscina es pequeña para el público que hay. Además, el agua está muy sucia, supongo que en parte por deficiente tratamiento físico y químico, y seguro que en buena medida porque nadie se ducha para entrar, muchos porque no quieren, supongo, y otros (cómo nuestro caso), porque no era posible, ya que, sorprendente, solo hay una ducha (doble, con un tubo abierto una parte y con un difusor la otra) y ésta no funcionó ninguno de los días de estancia, a pesar de que informamos al personal. Muy mal esta parte, la verdad. La comida, pues un día bastante floja y otro aceptable, pero no para tirar cohetes nada, salvo quizá la fruta. Le quitaría una estrella y media como mínimo. Y para acabar, destacar las fantásticas vistas a un socarral con una vaya metálica que nos dieron, además en la primera planta y justo encima de las unidades de climatización. Daba miedo salir al balcón, por el ruido y el calor que desprendían. No volvemos ni que nos paguen, vamos...

The reception staff are not very friendly. The service needs improving a little, and on top of that you’re charged for practically everything at the hotel. In my view the buffet food also needs to be improved.
El personal de recepción no son muy amables Hay que mejorar un poco la atención,por otro lado se te cobra hasta por respirar en las instalaciones del hotel. Mi punto de vista hay que mejorar también las comidas del bufé.

Perhaps allowing people to leave their towels by the pool without being present, which means those who want to swim have to place their towels on the grass area.
Quizás el permitir que la gente deje sus toallas en la piscina sin estar presentes y eso hace que quienes quieran bañarse tengan de poner las toallas en la zona de hierba.

Las habitaciones muy bien con espacio, cuna en muy buenas condiciones las camas y el sofá cama también, muy cómodos. El personal de recepción muy amables y atentos, con personal del comedor camareros y cocineros también estamos muy contentos.
On the last day we were due to check out at 11:00 but at 10:00 we hadn’t finished packing, so we left our things in the room and went to have breakfast at the buffet. At 10:30 we went back up to collect our things to take them down to the car and return the hotel card, but our belongings were gone — the cleaning staff had already cleaned the room and had taken our things to reception. This upset us a lot because we still had time to pack them ourselves.
Breakfast at the buffet, for the four of us, was expensive; the food was very bland and it was the same every morning.
We did enjoy lunch and dinner, although the lunch dishes seemed less appetising than the evening meals. Overall, food and restaurant staff were about 8/10.
To get to the beach you have to walk a little and go underneath a bridge, as the hotel and the beach are separated by the railway tracks.
El último día teníamos hora para salir a las 11:00h pero a las 10:00h no teníamos todo recogido, lo dejamos en la habitación y fuimos a desayunar al buffet, a las 10:30h subimos a buscar las cosas para bajarlas al coche y entregar la tarjeta del hotel, pues nuestras cosas ya no estaban, las chicas de limpieza habían limpiado todo, nuestras cosas las habían dejado en recepción, y nos sentó muy mal porque todavía teníamos tiempo de sacarlas nosotros.
El desayuno del buffet nos costaba desayunar a los 4 miembros de la familia, la comida muy sosa y todas las mañanas lo mismo.
La comida y la cena si que nos gustó bastante aún que las comidas nos parece la comida más apetitosa que por las noches, pero en general el tema comida y trabajadores del restaurante un 8/10.
Para ir a la playa hay que caminar un poco y pasar por debajo de un puente, porque el hotel y la playa están separados por las vías del tren.

De la playa, del mercadillo del martes, del paseo marítimo, de la atención de las personas que trabajaban al hotel, de la habitación, la terraza de la habitación, el baño, me encantó el baño!!! ah! y la terraza de la piscina.
I paid extra for a sea view and it was a disappointment because you could only see a very thin line (on the horizon) above some buildings. Better not to request it, or ideally remove it from the options that increase the room price, because there’s nothing resembling a sea view.
Of the four times I went to the dining room, on each occasion food was missing and it took them a long time to replenish it; it felt as though there were no supervisors attending to things.
Pagué de más para tener vistas al mar y fué una decepción porqué sólo se veia una línea muy fina (en el horizonte) por encima de construcciones. Mejor no pedirla o lo mejor sería suprimirla de las opciones que encarecen la habitación porqué de vistas al mar nada.
De las cuatro veces que estube al comedor en todas ellas faltaba comida y tardaban a reponerla, es como que no había supervisores que estubieran pendientes.

Wir waren im Alegria El Mar. Renoviert sind nur der Eingangsbereich, Fitness, Spa und die Zimmer. Der Miniclub hat nur zwei Stunden pro Tag offen und es gibt quasi keine Animation und Minisisco 1x die Woche. Der Spielplatz ist in schlechtem Zustand, Boden sieht einfach schrecklich aus, der Boden nicht fertig, es gibt viele Mäng el. Das Restaurant ist im Untergeschoss, sozusagen wie im Keller und das Frühstück ist sehr eintön ig und bietet nur wenig Auswahl. Insgesamt finden wir, dass das Hotel das Geld nicht wert ist.

The buffet could have a little more variety. Especially for children. At breakfast, in particular, there were long queues. Also, people were a bit anxious about getting food. And it took a while to replenish. Perhaps it could be reminded to be more considerate. Then you could see that they left dishes with food that went to waste...
El buffet podría tener un poco más de variedad. Sobre todo para los más pequeños. En el desayuno, sobre todo, se formaban muchas colas. Además la gente es un poco agonía cogiendo comida. Y tardaban un poco en reponer. Quizá se podría recordar que fueran más solidarios. Luego veías que dejaban los platos con comida que se malgastaba...
