The first thing to say about the Cala Font is that it is absolutely spotless.
The maids work tirelesly and are very pleasant. The food is excellent - plenty of choice at every mealtime. You can order a picnic for the following day if you are day tripping or if you plan to go out for the evening you can have lunch (1-4pm) instead of an evening meal.
The hotel is in the small village of Cap Salou which has a few bars, shops and restaurants and a small fairground to keep the kids occupied. Salou itself is a 10 minute bus ride away (costs about

This is our third year running at this hotel.
All the staff are so friendly and always receive a warm welcome on our return.
Entertainment is geared towards the children but, hey if the kids are happy then so are we!
There are a few bars, shops and restaurants very close by but if its still too quiet for you for 6 euros you can get a cab in to Salou.
Food is very good. The main courses are sometimes a bit bland but the salads and puddings certainly make up for it.
cleanliness is 1st class.
Beach location is excellent.
So if you want a quieter family holiday with a theme park a stones throw away than this is for you.

This is by far the best Spanish hotel we have stayed in.
The hotel is spotless, location superb, food was average but the staff were very helpful and made you feel very welcome.
Would not hesitate to go again.
Did not stay up for entertainment as the view from the balcony with a beer in your hand could not be beaten

Food was really good, something for everyone, no silly queuing up. Could get a table in the restaurant straightaway.
Hotel was exceptionally clean, did not see one cockroaches!!
The hotel is about a 20-25 min walk from centre of Salou, nice walk, although you can get a bus which costs peanuts and takes around 5 mins to get there.
Staff were brilliant!!! They would do anything for you.
Only downside was the entertainment. Very poor indeed, shame because the hotel was excellent.
9/10 for the hotel Cala Font!!!

Staff excellent, any problems/requirements dealt with almost immediately
Hotel very clean and in a nice location. Easy access to other places i.e. Salou only1.35 euro by regular bus 300 metres away
Good size rooms with balcony although walls very thin
Food good and plenty of it but like all hotels
Holidays did get repetitive
Typical hotel entertainment you either like or dislike it, we tended to use local bars and go back to hotel about 11pm, when buy one get one free started!

Stayed here Half Board the hotel was beautiful - spotless.
The food was okay typical hotel food one thing about the restaurant that got on my nerves is the fact that half the dinning room was reserved and trying to find a table was terrible. Waiter was rude and unhelpful unless you were Spanish and old you had no chance with him.
Location was a wee bit outside the resort so take soft walking shoes, the view is stunning from most of the rooms
I emailed hotel myself before hand and requested a sea view room which I am happy to say I got.
Staff at the hotel were polite except the ones in the restaurant but hey they work hard.
Entertainment was AWFUL disco was like a tea dance with tango and waltzes although I loved the flamenco show but avoid entertainment at all costs DJ was multi lingual which was good, but his taste in music was ...Pathetic.
Basically hotel was clean staff nice but it was like staying in a nursing home in the sun beige brigade in force. Not a family hotel and I have no idea how it could be advertised as such.
I won't be going back well maybe when I get into my 70's then I would fit in and I am no young thing either I am in my 30's and my son was a bored 6 year old.

I couldn't fault this hotel, and would definitely go back again. It was spotlessly clean, and the staff were always friendly and helpful, making an effort to speak in anybody's native language.
The room was cleaned every day, even the sheets were changed daily!
The food was very good, always lots of choice, and the puddings were great! The bar was also very cheap, particularly for cocktails during Happy Hour.
Lovely pool, my only criticism would be a lack of sunbeds - get there early! Also, the beach was private and very clean.
The evening entertainment was varied; it was more aimed at children (parrot show, disco, etc), but I would definitely recommend the flamenco and Polynesian shows.
I would definitely recommend this hotel, and plan to stay there if I go back to the area.

We stayed in the Cala Font last year for two weeks. Ot was the best holiday we ever had in Spain.
The staff very helpful, and the hotel was always very clean.
The enteranment was ok but could be better, but then ther is so much going on around Cap Salou or Salou Town. Not forgetting Port Aventura fun park (go at night time the kids love it as ride times 5 mins or less, the fireworks at midnight fantastic.)
The food in hotel was to a good standerd but could be more choice for the kids.
We will going back this year and taking some good friends with us. So i will let you know when I get back if the hotel etc was just as good or better.

The hotel was very nice looking, inside and out.Rooms were of reasonable size with a balcony.The only problem about the room was that the walls were quite thin so you could hear everything.The hotel was always very clean.It has a large reception are with couches and 24hr desk.Theres a small shop in the reception also.There is a bar..which is quite big with friendly staff.Also entertainment on an evening.The drinks were quite cheap...1.15 euros for a glass of wine.The swimming pool was quite big with a bar outside serving food/drink.There was people from uk,france,germany, spanish and italians staying while i was.
