We paid just over 800 euros for 9 nights in August/ early September and this did not include any bedding towels or cleaning. On arrival you have to put down a 150 Euro deposit for damages an cleaning, when you leave they inspect the caravan with you to ensure it’s clean and no damages etc. We were advised to use the local supermarket which was big and had everything we needed but again was very expensive, I’m not sure if the prices had been hiked up due to the numerous camping sites in the surrounding area. Also it is really difficult to catch the bus into the village or to the beach. We initially had free use of the mini train (road) included with our stay but this offer ran out at the end of August so they wanted to charge 4.50 euros a person to go to the beach. As we like to walk about a lot we later found out that you can catch the bus for 1 Euro however no body tells you this and every time you ask a local person where the bus stop is they direct you back to where the mini trains are, there is no public information anywhere. It feels like they want the tourist to take the expensive train an the locals to use the bus, even the taxi driver added on euros to the fare. Most of the staff were very pleasant and polite apart from one of the girls on reception who we met on arrival, she was quite rude and her attitude gave the impression she couldn’t be bothered, so we did our best to avoid her. From a health an safety point of view, they really need to have more staff in the pool area. I witnessed a teenage girl almost drown, a lady dived in an saved her nobody including myself and her friends noticed her go under, once pulled out of the water she spent about 10 mins coughing and spluttering on the side of the pool afterwards whilst recovering. Kids of all ages are dive bombing into the large pool from every angle, jumping off the top of the little wooden bridges totally unsupervised, no signage to say not to do this, no adults or staff telling them not to do it, you have to be self aware when swimming. Also there is nobody supervising the big slide so large groups of people are often going down it together. We had a pleasant holiday, the weather was beautiful, but wouldn’t go back.

Only tapped 1 star because 1 couldn't pick 0. Booked a pitch in advance for a camper van. Arrived and the pitch they led us to was tiny.You wouldn't park a car not to mind a campervan.We said it's too small and they gave us another pitch that was very very poor. There was tree stump in the middle of...show more
