I’m 16 and just got back from Salou. I was really worried after reading some of the reviews on here and other web pages because I didn’t want to tell my family because I knew they would just say no we’re not going if they read the reviews.

Not the best holiday ever I have to be honest. When we arrived there was no rep to meet us at the airport and despite the fact we paid in advance for a coach to take us to the apartments we ended up paying almost 30 euros to get there by bus. the... read more

Three girls went to the Costa Daurada on an allocation on arrival basis and were guaranteed 3* s/c. So we ended up in the Mariposa apartments.



The purpose of our trip was to go to Barcelona, Tarragona, and Port Aventura... and... read more

The people rating this hotel 1/10 are talking a load of rubbish. These apartments are clean and very spacious. We were there for a week in the beginning of June and we had no problems at all with the apartments. The pool was a good size and also had a... read more

You have to book in before 9pm or you will be sleeping outside. The location was ok and salou was brilliant, but the apartments were basically a dump, the view is of the dirty shop roofs, the rooms were not very clean, black marks all in the bath,... read more

Not for families at all. In the middle of Salou noisy all day and night. Lots of noise when disco empty around 6.30am.



Doors bang shut so no one can enter their apartments quietly. Pool is small, areas around the pool in... read more

I have given these apartments 1 out of 10, as there is nothing lower. In over 20 years of travelling abroad to numerous countries these apartments rate the lowest.

Apartment was basic but clean enough. Surely not legal as no smoke detector, although we were awoken twice each night for first 4 nights by fire alarm in building. No staff on site after 9pm, so not switched off for about an hour each time. This was... read more
