Good experience at the hotel
Unfortunately, due to the weather situation of those days 'dana period', we couldn't enjoy the surroundings much. Thanks to the hotel's good facilities, we spent pleasant days. But this also gives us the idea of coming back with more favorable weather, now that we know the hotel. Furthermore, you can park easily, near the hotel and for free... Oleee!

Discovering Sant Carles de la Ràpita
The municipality of Sant Carles de la Ràpita somewhat surprises the visitor, as although it is not a very well-known destination, even in low-mid season it is lively and has plenty of commerce, as it is a town with a high frequent residence throughout the year. The port and the area closest to the sea have well-maintained green areas with games for children. The proximity to the Ebro Delta allows for comfortable and recommendable excursions to the natural park and surroundings where one can contemplate curious natural landscapes and lots of birds. As a negative aspect, mosquito bites during certain times and moments, especially at dusk in the months of September and October coincide with the rice harvest.

Excellent experience in Sant Carles
We already knew Sant Carles. We like it very much. We're always well in Sant Carles, and next to the Delta, it's excellent in every way.

Phenomenal stay
Phenomenal stay. The Ebro Delta was a phenomenal destination. We cycled through its rice fields and took a boat ride watching the Alfaques Bay. We also tasted its cuisine, from mussels to its various rice dishes. We'll definitely come back!

Ideal for children
Ideal for children. If you don't want to drive, there are safe beaches for the children and you can set up your things without being too close to each other. If you want to move a bit, you can find coves with no people.

Flamingo viewpoint and trabucador beach
Flamingo viewpoint, Trabucador beach and mussel farms. Recommended to visit the Trabucador beach, with two very different sides of the sea, one calm and the other with many waves. It is recommended to bring a canister of water to remove the sand before getting into the car because there is no shower. There is a beach bar that is very good and has great views. On the way there, you can stop at viewpoints to observe flamingos.
