Map & location

Set on the seafront promenade of Santa Susanna, AQUA Hotel Aquamarina & Spa puts you right in the heart of Costa Barcelona’s family-friendly coast. Cross under the railway via a handy subway and you’re on the wide, golden-sand beach, perfect for paddling, sandcastles and watersports.
The resort centre runs alongside the promenade, so cafés, ice-cream parlours, bars and shops are all an easy stroll away. Day trips to Lloret de Mar for nightlife, Blanes for tapas and botanical gardens, or up to the medieval streets of Girona are simple from here, too.

Facilities
Pool & outdoors
Relax around two outdoor freshwater pools, including a shallower children’s pool, each framed by sunbathing terraces with loungers and parasols. There’s also a dedicated Chill-Out terrace with whirlpool – a quieter spot for soaking in the sun while the rest of the family gets stuck into the activities programme.
Pool towels are available with a refundable deposit, making it easy to travel lighter. When you’re ready for the sea, wander just a few minutes to Santa Susanna’s broad, gently shelving beach via the underpass for safe access under the railway.
