We stayed in the middle of July 2011. in Pineda de Mar. The temperature did not rise above 25 degrees, mostly it was 17-22. The water at the sea did not warm up, and there were constant waves, wind (storm 2-3 points every day, 2 days there was a storm of 6 points - waves above human height) We didn’t really buy and didn’t get tanned at all. The weather is very changeable - rain-sun changed every hour. Although some argue that this is ordinary Mediterranean weather. . . Since no one took any warm clothes, we had to buy umbrellas and sweaters. The town itself is very calm and quiet, after 10 pm it "dies out" - no entertainment. All cafes and shops are closed by this time. I didn't see any clubs there. Who goes to hang out, will not fit 100%. In principle, you can go or go to neighboring Calella or Santa Susanna, where there is nightlife. The Montpalau hotel is declared not for 2 *, but for 3 *, which is quite consistent with it. 80% populated by Russian citizens. The rooms are modest, but clean, air conditioning is present (cat. we turned on sometimes for heating))), the bathroom is enriched with a bathtub, sink, toilet bowl, bidet, everything is clean, excellent condition, one Russian channel, wet cleaning every day, linen was changed 1 time in 10 days, towels every day. The food is very good, the diet is very varied. Meat, fish, seafood were present every day, paella was given 2 times, fruits were in abundance, everything was ripe, desserts for which there was no room in the stomach. soups - gazpacho, onion soup, mushroom puree soup - och. delicious. We didn't spend a single euro on food. k. rolled out like koloboks, having eaten all sorts of yummy. Drinks are free for breakfast only. I was surprised that no one checked according to which system who eats, no one checked any cards at the entrance, because. That is, you could take one breakfast, and eat 3 times. In general, the hotel is normal, if you are not very picky, everything will suit you (by the way, repairs have been made on the 6th floor, there are better rooms) There is a swimming pool on the 4th floor.
