We really wanted to like this site but were disappointed. The man who came to the reception when I rang the bell was not very friendly especially when I produced my ACSI card. assigned a pitch with no choice and told not to move. was close enough to beach. Staff in bar were friendly with fresh bread in the morning. The bus to Almeria is convenient and excellent but the site is isolated unless you drive and difficult walking no longer our thing. (sadly). Being winter and cloudy did not help and a lot of dogs using the beach as a toilet - blame the owners. Facilities are dated and nowhere in the cubicle to hang clothes in men’s showers. Do not think we will return not least as it was more expensive than 2 other sites in the area in better locations and far superior facilities

Dog poo everywhere, on the pitch (we had to scoop a few before we could pitch up our tent..), on the road, on the beach.. Dogs walking free everywhere. It really destroyed our stay. Such a shame as it could be a beautiful campsite, it\'s beautifully situated. We had a pitch near the back (away from the sea) which is close to the road, the road noise kept us awake at night. I guess this could be less of a nuisance if you\'re in a camper or caravan and if you have a pitch closer to the sea though. Small pitches and quite smelly toilet facilities. We will not be coming back here.

A lovely situated campsite. Toilets/showers clean with lots of hot water. Site staff helpful and friendly. The perfect place to unwind and relax. We had a wonderful three days. Did not try the restaurant but those that did said it was a limited menu, however the food was excellent.

This camp site is a bit awkward to get to but is worth the effort. Site good facilities good. located at beach shore. Food drink good quality and affordable?

very quaint site, interesting layout in steep valley to the sea. pitches are assorted sizes with shade over most of them. extremely helpful staff, with good English. Bus stop on main road above site to Almeria one way and Aguadulce/ Roquetas del Mar in other direction. Some road noise but also sea. We enjoyed our stay. Take care when coming from Almeria as the road splits and you need to take the left hand tunnel towards Aguadulce..

This campsite has a a viaduct on one side. In front of it we were charged more. Behind it away from the sea we’re the CCA pitches. The site is near the sea but the pitches are the mallets I’ve ever seen. I won’t be returning.

Stayed here for two nights in October and thought it was a great site. The staff are genuinely friendly and helpful. The on-site restaurant and bar offered great food at very good prices including a menu del dia. The site itself is very peaceful, set directly on the beach in a very private area. The cleanliness of the onsite facilities were excellent and made us feel completely safe. We thoroughly recommend it and hope to return again very soon.

We had a very pleasant stay.
Plots are very cramped but acceptable.
Beach is on your doorstep.
We will definitely stay here again.
