Overview

 
Set just back from Pineda de Mar’s long golden beach, Golden Taurus Aquapark Resort is a big, bright and brilliantly equipped 4-star family favourite on Spain’s Costa Brava. Think five sparkling pools, a full aquapark with slides for all ages, lively entertainment and roomy family accommodation – all within strolling distance of the seafront promenade and resort centre. Certified as a sustainable hotel, it’s a fun-first base that still keeps an eye on its environmental footprint.

A fun-filled beachfront resort built with families in mind, Golden Taurus Aquapark Resort wraps a modern hotel around a huge outdoor pool complex and an action-packed aquapark. Kids whizz down multi-lane racers while little ones splash in shallow pools, grown-ups grab a lounger or a drink from one of the bars, and everyone reconvenes over easy-going buffet meals and evening shows. With comfortable rooms and flexible board from Room Only to All Inclusive, it’s an easy win for sun-and-slide escapes. For couples and families seeking Costa Brava’s relaxed seaside charm with everything on the doorstep, Golden Taurus Aquapark Resort delivers the perfect balance. It’s approximately 1 hour 20 minutes from Girona–Costa Brava Airport. See more Spain holidays.

Map & location


Pineda de Mar – Costa Barcelona, Costa Brava, Spain

Pineda de Mar is one of the Costa Barcelona’s most authentic seaside towns, with terracotta-topped buildings, palm-lined streets and a broad, golden sandy beach that seems made for long family walks. Golden Taurus Aquapark Resort sits a short stroll from the seafront and resort centre, so you can split your days between beach time, poolside fun and wandering into town for ice creams or tapas.

Beyond the beachfront, Pineda de Mar still wears its heritage proudly – expect whitewashed walls, Romanesque touches and photogenic squares, plus woodland close by if you fancy an easy family hike away from the sand.

  • • Beach (Pineda de Mar’s main sandy beach & promenade) 450m
  • • Pineda de Mar resort centre 500m
  • • Local shops, bars and restaurants within walking distance
  • Approx. transfer time from Girona–Costa Brava Airport (GRO) 1 hour 20 minutes

Facilities

Pool & outdoors


Outside is where Golden Taurus Aquapark Resort really shines. You’ve got five outdoor freshwater pools, including dedicated children’s pools and main pools with shallow sections, all edged by sunbathing terraces with loungers and parasols.

The star attraction is the on-site aquapark, included for guests. It features a whole collection of slides – from kamikaze drops and aqua loop twists to inflatable ring rides, multi-lane racers and rubber-mat racers – giving confident swimmers and teens plenty to talk about. Little ones aren’t forgotten either, with smaller slides and water features in shallower areas. The aquapark usually operates from around May to September between 10:00 and 18:00, depending on occupancy and weather, and safety restrictions on height/age/weight may apply.

There’s also an indoor freshwater pool with whirlpool, typically heated from late April to the end of May – ideal for cooler days at the start or end of the season. Pool towels are available with a refundable deposit.

The broad, gently shelving beach and promenade of Pineda de Mar is just a short walk away, giving you easy access to sandcastle territory, seafront playgrounds and cafés for an afternoon change of scene.

Spa, sports & wellness


Sporty families can join in aqua aerobics, basketball, five-a-side football, petanque, table tennis and volleyball, plus a varied daytime activity programme that runs most of the season. Expect racket sports, team games, water-based fun and family challenges, with a fuller schedule from mid-May to mid-September and a lighter roster in April and early May.

Evenings bring in-house shows, live music, quizzes, mini-discos for the kids and professional performances – a proper holiday-camp atmosphere without having to leave the hotel.

Other handy facilities include a 24-hour reception with currency exchange, luggage storage, English-language newspapers (seasonal) and facilities for charging mobility scooters. Free Wi-Fi runs throughout the property, so you can share those aquapark action shots in real time.

Smart casual dress (no beachwear) may be requested in some bars and the main restaurant, and opening hours or reservations can vary by season and board basis – always check the latest details on arrival.
