Brilliant selection of food for all meals of the day in the inclusive package.

Pool was very cold, kids were reluctant to enter any time of the day.

Super lovely staff! 2 big pools! Lovely food! Nice restaurant! Super comfy beds! Big bathroom! Quieter side of salou! Entertainment for kids on a night! Super clean! Second time going, and I will definitely go back again!! :)

Location is slightly further out but not the end of the world. People are taking up sun beds around the pool and then heading out for the day, which is super annoying, and I don't think they should be aloud as its unfair to other people.

Modern and clean with comfortable beds and very attentive staff. Food was varied, good quality, well presented and adequate. Premium all inclusive allowed us to jump the long queues for dinner !

Location wasn’t the best and entertainment was orientated towards the retired locals that frequent the hotel. We upgraded to premium all inclusive but even then some drinks had a significant cost (e.g. JD and coke). Air con didn’t work in the room and we melted at night.

We stayed in July / August 2023 and booked a superior family room for two adults and two children aged 11 and 9. The size of the room was fine and the beds were comfortable and cleaned daily. Fresh towels were provided daily if required and after 5 days we stripped all beds and new sheets and duvet/ pillow covers were provided. Storage space for clothing was a little bit lacking. We made do and it wasn't a deal breaker but a little more was needed really. Our bathroom was massive, huge bath with a shower over it, as well as a wet room style separate shower. Dove shower gels and shampoos were provided which smelt nice. Our room was on the third floor of the main building and faced the road with a pine forest behind it. Wasn't a particularly nice view but we weren't expecting herds of wildebeest dancing majestically over the serengeti. It got the sunshine in the morning but not the afternoon. The alternative view would have been a balcony overlooking the pool. The advantage of this would have been lovely sunshine in the afternoon, the downside would have been the loud music / entertainment all day and evening - your subjective choice. As a meat eater I was happy with the selection of food, plenty of meat / fish / cheese / salads / breads. If you've stayed all inclusive before then the deserts were typical little cakes, custards etc but self service ice cream machines were popular with my girls! My wife, however, who doesn't eat meat or fish struggled and this is one area where the hotel could easily improve. Each lunch and evening meal there are easily 8 meat or fish dishes but rarely vegetarian, so it would be so simple just to make a couple of dishes vege. They would make some nice salads but then add meat or tuna when it was not necessary. So improvements needed food wise for veggies. The pool? Well it depends on what type of person and what type of holiday you are after.

Great space and facilities. Rooms and beds were very comfortable and cleaned everyday. We were half board and food was great so was good value for money. It is a huge hotel so lots of lovely space to hang about inside and out. Games room for young ones is well stocked, main bar allowed for everyone to enjoy with dance floor and bistro tables to the front, pool tables to the side and sofas to the back so you could relax or play cards etc. Felt very safe for family and teens. It also meant we could be together but do what we want.

The hotel is a 20 min walk to main strip and beach. It was great during the day but at night found we didn't venture back so missed the night time atmosphere and the fountains. The weather wasn't amazing so not sure how I'd have felt bringing all my beach stuff down either. Was handy out to cap salou and such great facilities there was no massive need to leave.

We enjoyed our stay. The food was always beautiful for every meal. We stayed all inclusive and there was a room stocked with snacks all day. There is a Al fresco restaurant that you can get some free meals with all inclusive from 12-18:00, the burgers are definitely worth trying. My 2 year old loved the play ground and it was right next to the kids pool with a sun lounger area between the both areas that always had available loungers.

The entertainment is not good. We stayed all inclusive a few times in different places and we always enjoyed different entertainment every night for both kids and adults but there was only one good night with music. No whiskey free with all inclusive.

We loved our stay at this hotel as it was our first holiday as a family with our little one who was 3 months old. The staff were so helpful and friendly. We booked all inclusive just for easiness and the restaurant was good every night, although it was pretty busy as the evening went on but the food was always replenished fast and plenty of options too! Our room was spacious and originally there was no cot in our room but the staff quickly sorted this for us with the hour. The room wasn’t too busy either and could only hear chatting in the corridor occasionally. The pool area was big with plenty of space to put your pram and not too crammed. The drinks selection was great included with the all inclusive.

The pool was freezing so our little one only went in for a few minutes before he was too cold, which was a bit disappointing.

We have been coming to the Calypso for 9 years & everytime we have a great holiday. It has everything we need. Close to the shops, restaurants & 15 minutes to the beach. We go AI & never had a problem with food, always found something to eat & lovely cocktails. Staff are great, treat them with the kindness & respect you would like in return & they can't do enough for you. They work hard!

We like eating in the al-fresco area for breakfast but wish it had more variety like what to restaurant offers. Better entertainment on an evening.

Had a lovely week at the hotel. The pictures on booking.com did not do it justice as it has been recently refurbished. The only downside was the number of teenagers staying at the hotel at the same time, which made it busy during meals. Plus, the air-conditioning was blowing warm air, which meant we had to sleep with the balcony door open. Other than this, we had a pleasant time and would definitely recommend it as it was good value for money.

The staff were amazing, Vanessa at the reception was particularly exceptional, the food was great and tasty, especially the al fresco restaurant, no idea where the people who gave this hotel a bad review stayed but it definitely wasn't the medplaya salou. If you do go to this hotel I recommend you ask for room 606 as the balcony is huge and you get 2 sun loungers for your private sun bathing.

It's hard to find a fault tbh but if anything, the lifts only went to the 5th floor and the 6th floor was only accessible by stairs.
