Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
Great bungalow with essential air con. A few utensils had to be bought and kids bedroom was tiny. But otherwise a fun stay at a very Spanish campsite. Pool was perfect and the bar also great with ice cold beers & friendly staff. Evening entertainment is quite hit & miss but there’s a nice vibe about the place. You’re near to town of San José with nice family beach, also Los Genoveses beach is lovely if you get there in time as they close the road when the car park is full.

Bungalown var ganska trång och sängen obekväm, men funkar för en natt. Restaurangen var ok, goda pizzor. Frukosten var ok, men inget extra. Relation kvalitet/ pris ok.
