Pros: This apartment is just to our taste. Modern, clean, on the sea-front and had everything we needed during our stay. Kitchen and appliances are good quality as are the bathrooms with good strong showers.
The apartment is on the bus route (bus stops going both ways are just outside the apartment at either end of the apartment block). The bus goes from Cambrils along the coast stopping at Vilafortuny, Salou, Cap Salou, La Pineda, and Tarragona (if my memory serves me well). You can also go to Reus.
Cheapest way to travel on the bus is to buy a 10 journey card (we bought ours along at the tourist information in Cambrils) and when it runs out you can top it up at any Plana Tourist information.
We had hired a car which was handy to go to the Supermarket. There are Mercadona, Lidl and Aldi stores a couple of miles drive away from the apartment. There are more but these are the ones we used.
There is a large balcony facing the sea but be aware that you are on a main road and it is quite noisy. It didn't bother us but if you don't like traffic noise this could be an issue for you. Once the doors are closed you can't hear a thing. The other thing to be aware of is that the balcony is all glass fronted so although you have an amazing uninterrupted view of the sea, you are also, yourself in full view of the road and passers by but this wasn't really an issue for us.
These minor things to be aware of are totally a matter of preference and to us the beautiful apartment more than made up for any of these small issues.
The owner Thomas was the perfect host from the booking stage right through to leaving the apartment.
He provides a comprehensive guide to the apartment with all the information you need to know about it and the local area as well as recycling information. Communication was excellent and he is only 5 minutes away if there are any problems. If you need to contact him he usually answers very quickly.
We really enjoyed this apartment and would highly recommend it.
