In June 2010, my husband and daughters went to Spain for the first time. Prior to that, for five years, we gave preference to Greece and Italy. We went mainly thanks to my husband, a fan of Spanish football players, I was thinking about Crete with a stop in Jerusalem. But it’s necessary, it’s necessary, there’s no reception against my husband) Although I myself have had a great interest in this country since childhood - Don Quixote, Columbus, the reconquista, the Inquisition, the crazy Dali, finally ...In general, we went to Natalie Tours and puzzled manager: make us an offer we can't refuse. Even before that, we decided that we would not bother with the star rating of the hotel and silk robes. The only thing that matters to us in a hotel is a convenient location, a decent room to sleep in, decent food, and we will spend the extra money on renting a car and getting to know the country. After discussions, the following was chosen: Costa Dorada, Sallow town, Delfin Park 4 * hotel.
The hotel is modern, with a rather economical architecture and layout, it is noticeable that a few years ago it transferred capital. Our room was small (we took a junior), but quite sufficient for two adults and a child of 13 years old, we didn’t push our elbows. The furniture and plumbing are not shabby, the TV is available, but we never turned it on, not before it. Of the options, they rented a refrigerator, it’s still summer, I want to take a sip of a cold one from the table, since the market is close at hand. They didn’t take the safe, my husband is still that crest, because money, cards and documents are always on the belly in the bag, and the camera is on the shoulder. Cleaning and towels daily, linen twice a week, the maid left a small penny for tea, and everything was fine.


The food was very decent, a good selection of meat, fruits and vegetables, and sweets. The three of us have rather different tastes, but everyone was always full and satisfied. We always had breakfast at the hotel. Had lunch at the hotel when it was a beach day.
Dined almost always in the city. I will not talk about cooking, I will only say that we liked Spanish cuisine.

In the reviews I met various moans, for example, the territory is small. In Turkey or Egypt, of course, there are even more, well, there is clay and sand all around, and here Europe is all around) The territory is small, but well-groomed, pleasant, with greenery, benches, etc. etc. any trip and the sea was too lazy to drag, with pleasure and quickly swam in the pool with a jacuzzi. The beach is clean, with beautiful sand and a comfortable descent into the sea. There are enough people during the season.

But we didn’t really stick to one place. We started with a visit to the Port Aventura park. By the way, if you are traveling with a child of any age, get ready that you won’t get off with one visit. This is just a huge Disneyland, with fifty attractions, divided into national themes.
They are different, for every taste - and cool like the Underwater Odyssey, and really scary like the Dragon Kha, and just incredible slides with a train speed of more than a hundred kilometers per hour. Of course, we went to the Dali Museum, to the famous old fishing port in Cambrils, feasted on sea reptiles at the fish market, examined the medieval castle and the most beautiful park of Sama with gazebos, bridges, water grottoes and peacock-mawlins. )) We also rode to different places recommended by the guide. A car is really not a luxury, if possible, then rent it - get rid of spending on dubious excursions. You can only go where you choose. This summer we will return one hundred percent to Spain, there is still too much to see, but we will return already prepared and with planned routes.
