Facilities
Pool & outdoors
This is where Ohtels Villa Romana really comes into its own for families. There are two main outdoor freshwater pools, including a large freeform pool with integrated children’s section and a separate kids’ pool with slides. Sunbeds and parasols surround both, creating a lively, sociable sunbathing area.
The dedicated splash park and aqua park dial the fun up another notch, with slides, multi-lane racers, aqua loop slides, tipping buckets, jets, sprinklers and water cannons. Opening hours typically run from 10:00–19:00 and can change with occupancy and season. Age, height and weight restrictions may apply for some slides, and pool towels are available with a refundable deposit.
When you’re ready for real waves, the sandy beach at Salou is around 900m away, with shallow waters ideal for paddling and plenty of waterfront activities along the promenade.
Spa, sports & wellness
Between park days and pool sessions, the on-site wellness area is a welcome retreat. The spa features a sauna, steam room, Turkish bath and a menu of massage and beauty treatments (local charges apply). There’s also a playful Beer Spa concept for something a bit different. Minimum ages apply for certain spa facilities (often 5+ for access in some areas and 18+ for massage treatments – check locally).
Active guests can make use of the air-conditioned gym, kitted out with cardio machines, free weights, an aerobics studio and strength equipment. Opening hours are generally 08:00–22:00 and may vary. Cycling services include secure bike storage, cleaning and basic maintenance facilities, making this a solid base if you’re exploring the Costa Dorada on two wheels.
Practical extras include a 24-hour reception, concierge-style support, luggage storage, currency exchange and wheelchair hire, as well as charging facilities for mobility scooters.
