I'm not too sure about the Village Park Apartments but it's your lucky day about the International II, i've stayed there 3 or 4 times. :D

As far as the location goes it's good for the pubs and restaurants. It's about a 2 minute walk down the road to the main strip and it's about a 10-15 minute walk to the main beach or a 5 minute walk to a smaller beach.

It's a great hotel if you're looking for a good base to explore salou.

What's the age range of your party cause it's local to the nightclubs aswell.

Anything you need to know about it just ask.

Lester.

Thanks. Are the apartments themselves ok? Also I know there is an area of salou towards cap salou that is quite a bit run down, i was hoping its not around here. I wont be going to any nightclubs as we are two young familiesl. Would love any info you have on good pubs and a restaurants near by though.

Also should have said, i have been to salou before although im not too familiar with the names of places so if you could give me a rough idea of where they are that would be great. :D

It's maybe not the most picturesque part of salou but i wouldn't call it run down. Here's some more maps that might give a rough idea of where everything's at.

http://www.salouscene.com/mapintro.html

I'll try and remember as many pubs and restaurants as i can. There's a link with each one.

The Red Lion is decent and it's on the strip about 5 mins away from the Inter II. http://www.salouscene.com/theredlion.html

The 19th Hole is really good and it's up the bank and over the road from the Inter II. http://www.salouscene.com/the19thhole.html

Murphys is an Irish pub, they have loads of live sports on tv in there. It's two doors down from the 19th Hole. http://www.murphysportspub.co.uk/

The Connect Inn is great for breakfast and sunday dinner. Next door to Murphys. http://www.salou.co.uk/connect.htm

Hollywoods is straight over the road from the Inter II but it may have closed because all of the usual links to it have gone.

I went to Uncle Sams back in 2001 and it was really good for things like racks of ribs and steaks. http://www.salouscene.com/unclesams.html

The Inter II always have really good entertainment provided by Russell and a couple of other people who work for RJP Entertainment (Russell's brother's company). They provide entertainment for loads of hotels and they also own House Of Illusion. I've never been to House Of Illusion but i've only heard good reports about it.

There's loads of other places but it might be easier for you to browse through them so this might help. http://www.salouscene.com/

Hope this helps. Anything else just let me know.

I take it that Internationall II are down in that area then? I looked at that salou scene website and now i think ive basically got the holiday planned whether any one else with me likes it or not. Last time we went to salou we didnt really find any particular bar we liked alot and since there are so many of them we spent most nights on a mission to find 'our place'. This time I WILL be prepared. LOL :thanks

:D hi i think the village park apartments are near to the villaromana hotel and the salauris palace hotel, on the big roundabout that takes you up the road to portaventura theme park. have you tried google maps for salou, i did after someone recommended it, and i landed right on top of my hotel, not literally, but it was great to see where we were situated. worth a try.good luck!! :D

The Village Park apartments are behind the Hotel Europa Park near the Europa Plaza (not far from the big roundabout on the way to Portadventura). I stayed there last year and they are excellent. On suite bathrooms, huge balconies, air conditioned, very well equiped kitchens and very peaceful at night with no traffic noise outside, I can`t recommend them enough to be honest. My only gripe was that the swimming pool isn`t that big but guests at the apartments can use the pool etc at the Costa Dorada hotel which is just up the road towards the edge of town, about 2 minuts walk away from the Village Park.

I liked it so much that I am going back there on June 10th for two week. If you need more info just ask me ok
