The Costa Dorada is where we are heading next on our run down of the best hotels with waterpark access, and this is one that is sure to appeal to all of the family…
The modern and stylish 4* 4R Regina Gran hotel sits in the very heart of Salou and is a fantastic option in itself for a break in the sun.
And that’s before throwing a very special added extra into the mix…
The hotel offers both Half Board and All Inclusive options, with guests being offered the choice of a selection of rooms that can sleep up to four people and which are spread across two blocks.
Dining available in the hotel’s buffet restaurants, with food also being made available during the day in the café bar.
There are two outdoor swimming pools, including one for children, whilst there is an additional indoor pool located at the spa; where guests can relax with a series of special treatments.
An air conditioned gym is great for those who want to keep in shape, with daily entertainment on an evening.
Children meanwhile can spend time at the kid’s club during the day or burn off some energy at an indoor play area that is open from 10-8 every day.
The big attraction for people staying at the hotel however comes just down the road, with the PortAventura Theme Park being just 600m away.
Guests staying at the 4R Regina Gran can enjoy three days access to the park, which features no fewer than 40 rides including the high-speed Furious Baco rollercoaster and Shambhala – which features one of the largest drops on a coaster anywhere in Europe.
The park is also home to Ferrari Land which, as the name suggests, pays homage to the famous Italian carmaker.
Alternatively, guests can spend two days in PortAventura and one day in the sister Caribe Aquatic Park – which includes an exciting pirate ship and one of the tallest waterslides around.
