Tips: Transport... it was a bit tricky getting to the Calella from barcelona Airport due to train from Barcelona Airport not working. In the end, took the Airport Bus to Playa Cataluna, and Metro (Underground) to Clot, and an Overland train from El-Clot to Calella. Total journey time about 1h45 mins. We ate at some lovely restuarants... the best was... More

The location is great; a block tops from the beach. Also close enough to the old town and other restaurants and bars without being noisy, but easy enough to walk. Staff were neither great nor rude. The balconies are lovely but can be very slippery in the rain (the balcony floors are partly made of glass). The bed was fine... More

recently returned from the Kaktus Playa with a group of friends on an organised tour with Leger Holidays. The hotel is located a five minute walk from the beach which is reached via an underpass under the railway tracks. The railway line runs quite close to the hotel as mentioned in previous reviews but the trains are modern electric trains... More

This hotel is a 5 minute walk to the beach and a 20 minute walk to the train (along the beach) to get to Barcelona. There are stores right across the street to buy necessities (water, milk, diapers, etc..). The staff here are wonderful - on our first night, we needed milk for our toddler. The bar staff filled her... More
