univesal mediterranea

[Tortington]

saw the ad on tv last night - didnt get the address and havent been able to find it - anyone know it?

its a theme park near to salou, it should be found on google, the theme park is amazing, the resort that its near to though (salou) is a s*hole and should be avoided at all costs!!
they have built thier own "theme hotels" like at disney which are obviously more expensive than hotels in the resort, but believe me, its worth paying the extra to stay "on site".
hth !!

I got a brochure through today, looks out of our price league as usual. Ds twins, when they are a couple of years older, will have to settle for Asterixland and Efteling!

Isn't Salou the resort where raw sewage once floated down the street? (I used to work in the travel industry so remember something like that happened, a couple of times too! Didn't put people off though.)

We went last year on our way to somewhere else in spain. Easyjet v.cheap flights to Barcelona, stayed in nearby resort (not salou) and drove 15mins to get there. Really great theme park, we have done loads-eurodisney/efetelling/parc asterix/florida etc and it was the childrens favorite. Big enough to have loads to do, mediterranean theme with real mediterranean weather (!), not too congested, really good restaurants at reasonable prices. The general area is not the best though, hotel was 4* but tatty and naff, town was bit grotty too. Would suggest get flight and car hire/stay in area and do park for 4d (water park there too) and then drive few hours along coast to find somewhere decent for bulk of stay.

We went when dd1 was 22mths (8 yrs ago), stayed at the Hotel Donaire Park in La Pineda, this is where the water park is. Also visited Port Aventura (as it was called then).
