Campsite Playa Las Dunas Cat.1

We enjoyed it here, but booking in was not the easiest. We’re in a motor home and they had a man waiting to show us to our pitch (small and awkward to get into), and then we had to go back to the motor home service point for water. But having got settled, we enjoyed ourselves. Showers were brilliant. As was a local sherry tour in the town, and a trip on the ferry to Cadiz.

We do not quite understand some of the previous negative comments on this site. Our stop was a pleasure. The staff could not have been more helpful, the bars and restaurant were lively and very good and the sanitary blocks were the best visited in our 5 1/2 week trip. Check in was very friendly and efficient. All in all, if you want to visit Cadiz this is your best base! Cycle to the ferry where you can lock your bikes in racks right next to the boarding

We liked this site however we wanted to stay for 5 nights but we\'re told that the price would increase from the Friday to including Sunday night as it was the Motogp. They wanted to increase the price per person per night. It\'s not that we didn\'t mind paying it was the principle of the matter and it left a bad taste. So we left after 2 days and moved on to our next destination. Lovely beach over the road.

Lovely site. Close to beach. Facilities spotless - own loo paper req’d. Next to football pitches therefore noisy at weekend. Nearby dog barking overnight irritating. Would stay again.

Second time at this site, unfortunately things appear to have gone down hill in the twelve month since our last visit,
This site is ideally situated for a visit to Cadiz which is a must, also the surrounding area has some beautiful beaches, the toilet block area is kept very clean, this concludes the good.
The pool was closed, as was the restaurant and bar, the water in the showers was barely warm, the young lady on reception was to say the least miserable, we arrived two days before the ACSI discount card became valid so paid the full rate despite as I have said the restaurant, bar and pool area all being closed. I would not recommend this site unless standards improve.

First impressions count .....we drove in past many what looked like derelict caravans 2 bars both closed & chairs stacked up & also pool area was closed between certain hours during the afternoon. (1st week in September) On this impression we drove in and unfortunately drove straight out. Location close to beach.

we were directed to a pitch which might have well have been in the middle of a car park, with dust and dirt underfoot which made it unbearably uncomfortable during windy conditions.

restaurant poor with little English spoken or understood, food quality barely edible. price not cheap. WiFi in bar area would not work and as staff had little English (or possibly inclination!) to help.
the beach opposite is truly magic wh
weather permitting but unfotunately during our stay the wind was so strong we could hardly stand, (no fault of the campsite admittedly)

I don\'t quite understand some of the very negative reviews of this site. We have stayed here three times, on each occasion for 3 or 4 nights. The pitches might be a bit small for large outfits but we are in a camper and yes some are sandy and dusty but the site is basically on a sand dune. When allocated a pitch under the heavy shade of umbrella pines trees reception were happy to move us to one in the sun. The shower blocks are kept spotlessly clean with cleaners visiting them several times a day. The site is generally busy as it is a great location. The town itself has a lovely lived in feel not just being a tourist resort. There are great bars and a Michelin star restaurant. Several sherry bodegas do guided tours and tastings and the ferry to Cadiz is a great way to see this beautiful city. There is an excellent walk/cycle way to and beyond Puerto Sherry where there are some very good fish restaurants overlooking a sandy beach. The beach opposite the site is a fantastic area of white sand as well. Jerez is a 15 minute train journey away and Sanlucar is also worth a visit although difficult to get to on public transport. There are also good walks or bike tracks across the salt marshes at the far end of the beaches in the other side of town from the site. We haven\'t tried the cafe by the site as there are better looking places nearby to eat but it is ok for a drink. Wifi there was a bit hit and miss. We will be returning to the site in 2018 to stock up on sherry supplies and enjoy the atmosphere of the are for a few days. We like the fact that most excursions involve walking or cycling rather than having to drive out.

We stayed here for 4 nights as there are lots of places to visit in the area. You can catch the ferry to Cadiz and is in easy distance to visit Seville. The town of Santa Maria is very historic and has a castle which unfortunately is only open only a couple of days a week!
The campsite is large and has well marked flat pitches mainly in a wooded area so giving lots of welcoming shade. The toilet facilities are modern and spotless being well planned out in design with cleaning staff constantly in attendance.
The only negative point that I feel I need to mention was that there was a particular female member of staff who was rude and difficult . Other staff were helpful. It is a pity when one person can spoil an otherwise very good camp site

Booked for 2 nights, left after one. Very windy, gale force.Food ok but were not allowed to eat inside, so everything you ate or drank was full of sand. Receptionist very surly and disinterested no info given willingly. Rubbish everywhere, no attempt to clear it. Would not stay here again.
