Lovely seafront which has plenty of eating places. But the town is difficult to find your way round, very few shops. Interesting roman villa site. Plus a beautiful old fort Casteil de Tamarit perfect for weddings
There was an adults -only area with dipping pool and sun loungers on the 4th floor of the hotel ALTAFULLA MAR with smashing views of the surrounding countryside. Nice touch.! The hotel is obviously a big draw for business conferences and seemed ideally suited for this TOO ; the conferences were held outside which meant if you'd wanted to use the outdoor pool you couldn't ? In high season they'd go indoors? HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS HOTEL AND CHARMING VILLAGE FOR A SHORT STOP OFF IF YOU VISIT THE COSTA DAURADA - learn some Catalan and eat local special dishes to embrace the experience.
Lovely town with some historical places to see. Great to just wander around and discover it for yourself. The main areas to eat and drink are within the old town and they are all very individual, with their own character. Friendly staff. There are also a few on the beach. The surrounding area is definitely worth exploring, particularly for the coastal walking routes.
It has a really beautiful but fairly small old town with a castle and great restaurants and bars. The beach is a short distance away and is long and sandy with nice bars and restaurants close by. Although there are 2 very modern hotels just set back from the beach, the village doesn't feel overdeveloped. You can take the train to Tarragona, Sitges or even Barcelona to vary your trip.
I had thought, from looking at photos, that the old town of Altafulla was directly above the beach. This isn't the case; it's about a fifteen-minute walk. Which is absolutely fine, but it's a different esthetic than I expected. I liked the easy access by train from Barcelona, and the fact that it's a small, walkable town that, while seemingly mostly about tourism, doesn't feel overdeveloped. It's a bit dead in the off-season, when we visited; but 'nice and quiet' is another way to frame it. The local people were extremely friendly and welcoming. We hope to visit again when the weather is warmer.
Altafulla is the perfect getaway for anyone who doesn't what the typical tourist buzz. The old town is charming with great eateries. The more modern side of the town has great places too and the beach is lovely. The locals are very friendly and it's very relaxing. The train means you can easily go exploring if you don't have a car and you can get to Barcelona in an hour or Seville in 2. Having been four times now, it's definitely one of our favourites for a relaxing getaway.
Altafulla
Villa Isabel it's just a few minutes walking from Altafulla downtown and the sea. The villa is really amazing, rooms are new and clean, the beautiful garden is also a perfect place where you can relax. Isabella is a great host, kind and helpfull. Really recommend for a relaxing getaway!

oh, the overall experience was awesome! super friendly owners of the hotel and all people I met during the day. the room was super clean, the bed was very comfy. I recharged totally after the long ride and I am super grateful to kind and positive people from Oreneta.
Lovely hotel and staff and great location and facilities worth the money. Free parking nearby. Rich breakfast with plenty of food variety. Comfortable and spacious rooms. Really great toilet with all utensils you nerd and nice shower..
The entire place is like a very modern castle. Located in the middle of the old town of Altafulla, in 10 minutes you can walk around the breathtaking center of it. Restaurant in the same hotel is also sublime, very good quality.
