Cambrils, Costa Dorada, Spain
Classic Cambrils mixes golden sand, a working marina and Catalan foodie culture, and Hotel Monica puts you in the middle of it all. Wander a minute or two to reach the Blue Flag beach and promenade, or amble into the old village quarter with its cobbled streets and tapas bars.
Further afield, Roman ruins, the thrills of PortAventura World and waterparks are an easy bus or taxi ride away, making this a smart base whether you plan to laze by the sea, explore the region or combine both.

Facilities
Pool & outdoors
The compact outdoor saltwater pool is the calm heart of the hotel, framed by lawns, palms and a sun terrace dotted with loungers and parasols. There’s a shallow children’s section so younger guests can splash safely while you relax within easy view. Pool towels are available with a refundable deposit, so you can travel lighter.
Stroll around 150m to reach the wide sandy beach and Cambrils Marina. The coastline here is made for gentle swims, seaside walks and watersports, with safe, shallow waters and a choice of beachfront cafés if you prefer your sea views with a coffee or cold drink in hand.
Spa, sports & wellness
Keep active with the air-conditioned gym, equipped with cardio machines and a free-weights area (minimum age 18 years; opening hours typically 09:00–10:00, subject to change). Cyclists are particularly well catered for thanks to secure bike storage, sports clothes washing facilities and on-site bike hire (charges apply), making this a handy base for exploring the Costa Dorada on two wheels.
After a day out, retreat to the spa where a sauna, Turkish bath and whirlpool help ease tired legs, or book a massage or beauty treatment for deeper relaxation (18+, extra charge).
Additional facilities and services include:
• Regular and occasional evening entertainment with live music (seasonal)

Food & drink
Start the day with a generous buffet breakfast at Mònica Restaurant, where show-cooking stations add freshly prepared eggs and hot dishes to the spread of pastries, cold cuts and local produce. Lunch and dinner continue in buffet style with Mediterranean favourites and international choices, ideal if you have fussy eaters or just enjoy variety.

A smart-casual dress code applies in the restaurant and bar, and opening times or inclusions can vary depending on your chosen board basis and season.
