This middle class hotel is a great solution to spend a few days on the beach with family and children. Located next to fishermen's square in Canet de Berenger, there is a short walk to the beach and can find along the boardwalk many restaurants and cafes. The resort has good rooms with terrace, clean and well equipped with very good holiday facilities. Large pool and another smaller for younger children, paddle and petanque courts. It also has a playground, a bar, hairdresser, tv area, and games room. During summer season they offer cinema and children's and adult entertainment. A buffet is available three times daily and, even though it is quite big and noisy, good food quality is served fairly well. The negative things we found were: 1.- Rooms air conditioning are very poor, not working properly at all. We knew that in advance and had to carry standing fans in order to improve the service 2.- Pillows of regular quality 3.- Extremely small TV 4.- Hours of use of the pool with restricted access between 3 and 4 pm and closed after 8 pm. Despite the above, children and grandchildren enjoyed it very much.

“Lots to say about this hotel...”

Delayed flight had us arrive at VAL after midnight, 65 Euro cab ride; we had a 6 year old, no cabs had booster seats...they wouldn't take her (1 finally did). It is a local hotel, not a resort; keep that in mind when you expect accommodation or amenity.I should caveat that with: if you speak Spanish, there are a lot of activities for the family, otherwise, there is nothing to do at the hotel aside from the pool. No English, but their website says that; I enjoyed brushing off my rusty college Spanish, but it could only get me so far in stores, with cab drivers, and with the hotel staff. So, if you don't speak fluent Spanish, just be prepared to get your Google translate out. Everyone brings their beach gear; no rental places (including at the hotel) which gets brutal when you are on the sand with no umbrella. Breakfast was fine; did not pay for lunch, dinner on 2nd night got a ground chicken patty (raw) and meatballs (raw). Understand the siesta; impacts pool times and bar times as well as the few stores nearby. The beachfront comes alive around 9PM; merchants set up, and restaurants open prior to to that, the few restaurants that are open are packed, and the couple of stores near the beach have siesta hours; plan accordingly. Within a couple of blocks there is a gas station and supermarket (Consum) that maintain regulars hours where you can get what you need. The mini-fridge in the room was not particularly cold, and it took along time to cool things down. On Sunday, there was a flea market near the hotel where you could get beach towels or beachwear for cheap as well as some local food. It closed at 1200 or 1PM; highly recommend if for no other reason than the experience. Cab back (left at 1230) to airport was 50 Euro; so, about 120 Euro in cabs without going anywhere else by cab during our stay. Overall, I think it is a bit overpriced, but, again this is informed by a language barrier. If you don't speak Spanish, I would look elsewhere.
