Campsite Roquetas Cat.2

Campsite a little bit out of the way, a good walk in both directions to the towns. Facilities dated but work perfectly, showers hot and powerful.

This site is very handy for Roquetas. It's a 400m cycle ride to the beach and 3km along a very good cycle path into Roquetas. We had a large pitch under shade, the site was very quiet towards the end of September. The site has a reasonable restaurant, a decent size swimming pool, one pool was closed. The showers were good. Dishwashing relied on getting hot water from a tap at the end of the block. The site had a good shop. Overall, an enjoyable visit.

Site is close to village with supermarkets etc and a long beach. It is possible to cycle about 7 miles in one direction past numerous bars hotels and shops. Site was very empty and quiet in May. Large level pitches.

We stayed here for two weeks and thoroughly enjoyed our stay, we moved on reluctantly as we are on a grand tour! The double pitches were spacious and the local cycling was great, you can go for miles and there's a handy back gate, re-entry card available at reception. The staff were pleasant and very helpful and the shop was a real bonus with freshly baked bread every day. The paid for wifi was also very good.
The only downside was the showers which were very temperamental, the water goes cold or dries up completely leaving you shivering and covered in shampoo or soap until it decides to come back on again.
Otherwise a really great site, sorry to leave and we will be back.

Good cycling along the beach to Roquetas de mar. Good bird watching along the shore. Very nice clean and tidy showers. Town nearby for shopping.

I would agree with the last reviewer, we loved the site and had a great double-sized pitch with loads of space. We were in the middle of the campsite which seemed to be the nicest area with a few trees, and hedges separating pitches. The area nearer the beach seemed to be more cramped, and no trees, but there were frames around them with covers rolled back ready for the hotter weather. The surrounding area is fantastic for walking and cycling, and the nearby Cabo de Gata area was truly stunning. We were sorry to leave after a week.

The site was clean and tidy, toilets very clean, showers were good. Nice and relaxing. Not as near to the beach is I thought. We were touring and ending up staying longer than normal. Nice site

Sent 3 emails to book plot. no reply. Phoned to book, very unhelpful. just said not possibe. Arrived at 5 pm, the miserable receptionist said he only had 3 free plots. Two had 'one foot in the toilet block' and the other - an overnight bivouac plot. Not recommended.

We spent an enjoyable week here in late November/early December. The site is large with a variety of pitch options; some areas have trees and low hedges and others are quite open, although all have frames for summer shade. We were given a choice of double sized pitches with loads of space. There are several sanitary blocks, with plenty of lever operated hot water showers. Also look out for the hot water hose adjacent to the cold water sinks if you want hot water for washing up outside. The site seems to be very popular for long stay winter guests and has a lovely friendly atmosphere. It's also very peaceful at night. A bonus for us were the cycle routes along the coast, you could cycle for miles and the views back along the coast to Almería were lovely. We'd definitely come back to this area and would stay at this site again.

Swimming pool was closed. Pitch was very very large. Good local market. Cycle along prom in both directions.
