Las Olas Beach Club sits right on Valdelagrana beach in El Puerto de Santa María, about 5km from the town centre. It's a proper chiringuito: sand underfoot, sea in front, premium sunbeds and umbrellas lined up along the shore.
See how it stacks up against the rest in our El Puerto de Santa María beach clubs guide.
The vibe is casual and relaxed during the day. The atmosphere skews quiet and romantic, with groups and families both regulars here. Sunsets draw a bigger crowd, and the sea views at golden hour are what guests come back for.
Prices are mid-range ($$). It's open every day from 10am to 8pm, and reservations are accepted. Free parking is available in a lot and on the street. Dogs are welcome, and the whole venue is wheelchair accessible, including the entrance, restrooms, and seating.
Rated 3.4 from 1,041 reviews. The split is notable: 381 five-stars and 220 four-stars against 182 one-stars. Most people leave happy, but a meaningful minority aren't. Go in with chiringuito expectations rather than resort-level ones and you'll likely land on the right side.
