Salou is an incredible vacation vacation spot for households with youngsters, and I just lately visited with Dylan, Archie and a few mates with youngsters the identical age (and naturally Rex got here alongside too). We spent most of our time at Port Aventura and Ferrari Land, two theme parks which are positive to maintain youngsters of all ages (and oldsters) entertained.
Top-of-the-line issues about Salou is its proximity to the seaside. We balanced the busy days within the theme parks with a quieter one on the native seaside, which was solely a few minutes stroll from our resort. The sand was comfortable and white and in the course of the Easter holidays it was so quiet. The seafront and city had been stuffed with memento outlets, eating places and cafes and a few lovely fountains. It wasn’t fairly heat sufficient for sea swimming in my view however all of us had a paddle.

Salou is unquestionably a vacationer vacation spot and there are such a lot of resorts to select from. Our resort had an enormous pool with some enjoyable water slides and loads of solar loungers for enjoyable. The children might spend hours swimming and enjoying, and we might simply keep watch over them whereas having fun with the solar (or chasing a toddler round). There was additionally a playground, video games room and mini comfortable play for youthful youngsters in addition to leisure in the course of the days and evenings. I think about it will get very busy in the summertime months however throughout our keep it was quiet. The restaurant on website is a buffet so you may ebook the resort as an all inclusive or with simply breakfast like we did.
One of many issues I appreciated most about Salou was how child-friendly the city is, even late within the night. There have been at all times households out and about, having fun with the numerous outlets, cafes, and eating places. We by no means felt unsafe or unwelcome, which made our journey that rather more gratifying. We ate out within the evenings and I can extremely suggest The Guiness Tavern which did glorious meals and catered nicely for vegetarians and vegans.
After all, the spotlight of our journey was visiting PortAventura and Ferrari Land. There have been so many thrilling rides and sights to discover, and we beloved each minute of it. From the adrenaline-pumping curler coasters to the interactive 4D experiences, there was one thing for everybody. While the larger youngsters went on the quickest rides and had been being spun the other way up, Rex and I might have a wander via Sesame Avenue Land and we even discovered some rides that he might go on (A few of them had no minimal top however you needed to show that your youngster might stroll to go on them).
We additionally loved exploring the totally different themed areas of the parks, just like the Wild West and Mediterranea. The eye to element was spectacular, and we felt like we had been transported to a unique world. After we wanted a break from the rides, there have been loads of snack stands to refuel and recharge and there have been outlets dotted round for getting souvenirs.
Ferrari Land boasts Pink Pressure, a experience that goes from 0-180km in solely 5 seconds and that Rex could not take his eyes off of. The park was open from 4pm-10pm throughout our go to and there are reveals and reveals in addition to rides for all ages. Tickets can be found that cowl each parks and we selected a two day-two park ticket.

We stayed in Lodge Jaime 1 and booked as a bundle. Because the climate is not assured over Easter time the costs are cheaper than peak, so I paid round £500 in complete for Myself and the three youngsters which coated our flights, lodging and breakfast for our 3 night time keep. It was between 20 – 25 levels in the course of the day however dropped down within the evenings.
