apartments in salou

mich_city

hi all..

can anyone recommend apartments in salou, needs to be 2 bedroom (2 adults, 16 (m) and 14 (f) travelling) not in a too quiet area.. also a good site to book with?

been looking at the albatross apts, seem to have good reviews.. but cant find a good deal to book (for mid june - manchester, pref.. liverpool at a push)

also, best way to book for port adventura..

any suggestions appreciated..

thanks

I was about to reccomend Dorarda Palace ( go there all the time, love it!) but then saw you wanted 2 bedrooms. I haven't stayed in a hotel in Salou that does 2 beds.

As for tickets, when I was there, you used to get a voucher for BOGOF day tickets if you bought 2 pints of a certain beer in loads of bars, but that might not be there anymore (it was a longstanding offer) but I got mine from 365tickets.com but they arn't doing them anymore it seems. This place gives good prices from the looks of it. http://www.attractiontix.co.uk/port-aventura.asp?t=g&gclid=CLG8m8uF2ZACFQmVMAodoSVzOQ

Have you been before Mich?

thats the prob with the hotels wanty... thanks for the reply btw

was gonna use my clubcard vouchers but there's only 1 apartment showing on cosmos.. £1,600 :eek: and it hasnt got great reviews on the usual sites..

might be an idea to book apartment and flights seperately? cheapo ryan air... but have to traipse to liverpool then

not been before, would love to have a day in barcelona

I haven't really found it to be that much cheaper to be honest to book seperate unless you can find a cheap holiday let. Flights to Reus seem (when I have looked anyways) quite dear.

cheaper than from here tho, but would have to be cheapo apartment, could end up a nightmare!

found a good package price on a site sunmaster.co.uk but the price has gone up @£150 since I last looked.. guess thats gonna happen now if I dont book sharpish!

village park apartments are excellent and definatly have 2 bedroom apartments- not far from central roundabouts.

hi we stayed in village park 2 years ago ,appt was great but you do have to watch that you dont do any sort of damage ,when they came to check the appt they checked everything including light bulbs,doors ,counted every plate,cup bowl and everything else,but saying that I will go back to the same appt as we gave it back the way we go it and for what we paid for the week it was great.When we collected the key someone come to show us the appt but it was a quick everything is here and they left but when I go again I will check everything with them before I let them leave, so be warned that if you use universalholidaycentre check everything.

If you use Universal Holiday Centre, also check that when you pay for the apartment at their office in Salou with a credit/debit card, you pay using the currency you want to pay with. I didn't realise they were charging in sterling and doing a dynamic currency conversion when I wanted to pay in Euros with my nationwide card.

The receipt says they have asked you which currency you want to be charged in but it is plainly not true

Don't forget to look at Ryanair for cheap flights to salou (Reus). We used them last year in May Whit week and got a great price.Travel Republic are often the best priced on apartments and there is usually a code floating around for a discount on their prices.I got flights and half board for 2 adults and a child for less than £550 for all of us at the Hotel Calypso
