PortAventura Lucy's Mansion - Includes PortAventura Park Tickets

Just returned from a five night stay at Mansion de Lucy. The staff are lovely and very helpful. Most of the staff speak English. It is a lovely hotel , the rooms are a good size and it is very quiet, with house keeping daily. We stayed half board. The breakfast is a buffet including pastries, yoghurt, cereal, meats, fruits. You can also order from the menu which includes an English breakfast and pancakes. The food is lovely. On the odd day there was a wait for the food so if you are in a hurry to get into the park at 10am go earlier for breakfast. You can get a dine around ticket for the evening meal. We ate at the River Gold buffet, 7.30pm. You get a choice of three sittings. There is a good choice including chips, toasties, lots of vegetables, meats, burgers, hot dogs, fish, fruits, choice of fresh breads and some lovely desserts. My daughter can be fussy but she loved trying new foods. The hotel has a small pool which we didn’t get time to use. There are plenty of sunbeds and places to sit. We ate lunch in the park some days. The food is nice and there is plenty of choice. Check the times for when they open/close as some open later in the day and close early. You get express passes for both theme parks. These are very handy. It does not include the newer ride Uncharted. The wait can be very long for the ride even if you go in earlier at 10am. The express is 30 euros per person for a single use. Guests can go in half an hour early. Again check the app for ride times. Portaventura park is much bigger than last time we came and there are plenty of rides and shows. When we went it was hot so we went for a few hours in the morning and thin later in the day. We need to return as we definitely didn’t see and do everything. Ferrari Land has two fast rides my daughter loved these . It’s small but worth a look around and has plenty of places to eat. It open later in the afternoon. We did do a few hours at the Caribe Waterpark. If staying onside you get a discount however when I checked the online prices we were charged normal price. I bought a cabana for 120 euros which included fast passes. It is nothing fancy and the fan didn’t work. People were very rude and sat outside of it so it wasn’t easy to get in and out. There were people sitting right behind it and there children looked through the gaps so there was no privacy. The woman who sold us the tickets was very rude and we had to ask someone else where the cabanas were. The queues we still just as long even with the passes. Not a very enjoyable day. I did complain about the cabana but the staff member shrugged his shoulders and walked away. The food was nice and my daughter enjoyed the wave pool. We got a taxi down to Salou and spent a few hours looking aaround. I was a little lost in the end so I went into a hotel and asked for a taxi back to the hotel. The cost was different each time from 15 euros to 20. We also visited the shopping mall in Tattagona, Centre Commercial. It is closed on a Su
