Salou, Costa Dorada, Spain Reviews View Cheap Holidays To SalouSalou, Costa Dorada, Spain Once in a Lifetime Rating: 7/10 Submitted by: Marla Date of travel: 19/07/2006
Nice place but would not like to visit again. Somewhat clean and nice beach but there was a weird smell in the resort. Some of the streets were dirty and I did not like the attitudes of some of the vendors. People dumb rubbish along the street instead of using bins which made the street vendors have to work that much harder. People smoked everywhere including the bars (this is illegal to smoke indoors) and if the owner was not smoking himself, he still did not make the others stop. And when we complained they simply looked at us as if we were crazy. There was not much variety of entertainment but what they offered was of much value. At night the beach was picture perfect and some of the restaurants would play music as you ate by the light of the moon. It had it good parts but many bad parts as well. Once in a lifetime is good enough for me.Salou, Costa Dorada, Spain Great Rating: 9/10 Submitted by: Joe Date of travel: 15/06/2007
Was a great place to visit on the whole. My teen cousins loved the Portaventura themed park because of the great rides and the food and we loved it because they were exhausted and wanted to sleep after they came home. They could not stop talking about the big wave machine that would make the water rippled every 15minutes and how they challenged every wave that came their way. The whole family loved the resort because it offered much on the side of entertainment and food. What brought us a little concern was that there were too many main roads to cross with plenty of traffic so we had to keep a special eye on the little ones. Salou had a fantastic beach with weather that remained beautiful throughout our stay. We were able to jump over to Barcelona for cheap and eat tapas along the beach shore. In Salou itself the town was lovely. There were lots of bars and pubs to eat. Not too many night clubs (so we could monitor the teens) buy there were comedy clubs, magic shows, hypnotists and live music. It was a great time and holiday.Salou, Costa Dorada, Spain Excellent party Capital. Rating: 7/10 Submitted by: Claire Date of travel: 19/05/2006
Me and another 6 of us went on a girly holiday to Salou, the hotel we stayed in was called Calypso, it wasn't the nicest hotel i've ever stayed in but you get what you pay for basically. The room was quite small and very stuffy and the pool side was crowded with kids and families every where. We went to the Port Aventura theme park and went on the Dragon Khan rollercoaster, that was ace. We enjoed the evening entertainment as the bars and clubs were open till 4am in the morning. Sometimes you would get some truoble but everywhere you go you get that so we just got on with partying and having a laugh. I would never stay in the Calypso hotel again, I would go to a more luxury one next time. But Salou is a top place. |
