Travelling party: Single

Obwohl ich bei der Anmeldung 1-2 Tage vereinbart habe, wurde der ganze Anmeldeprozess immer in die Richtung, “wenn sie einen Monat bleiben, gelenkt”. Ich habe mich sehr bedrängt gefühlt. Wohnmobil Standplatz frei wählbar. Platz gibt es genug. Leider zu wenig Stromanschlüsse. Ich hatte einen Platz, dem Engländer nebenan gefiel meine Auswahl gar nicht. Der hat so lange terror gemacht, bis ich am nächsten Tag gegangen bin. Das Teritorial.-/Kolonialverhalten dieses Nachbarn wurde von den Betreibern noch unterstützt. Mitgeteilt, das ich mein Wohmi auf die andere Seite stellen soll, hat mir ein Arbeiter dort und nicht die Rezeption. Was ich interessant fand, dass der Arbeiter auf keinen Fall wollte, dass ich das Problem mit der Rezeption direkt bespreche. Es hinterlässt bei mir den Anschein als haben der Engländer und der Arbeiter einen Deal zusammen vereinbart um mich loszuwerden.
Liegestühle am Pool sind alt, schmutzig und durchgelegen. Essen an der Bar war das Geld nicht wert. Stellplatzsuche, Stromverteilersuche alles wird auf dem Rücken des zahlenden Gastes abgeschoben. Keine Parzellierung und stellst dein Mobil nach einer Stunde suche ab, passiert dir das was ich im ersten Teil geschrieben habe.
Die Gäste auf dem Platz urteilen nicht sehr nett über die Angestellten ( unfreundlich) nicht kritikfähig, sie haben für alles eine Ausrede! Nicht zu empfehlen, dieser Platz.

Tiene muchas cosas que mejorar. Muy lejos de un camping en el que descansar tranquilamente y a gusto. Tuvimos problemas con el personal de recepción bastante desagradables que empañaron bastante nuestra estancia en la zona.
La limpieza, NADA especial frente a la COVID-19. La limpieza en lineas generales justita y no se amolda a si hay más o menos gente acampada por lo que es deficiente cuando hay más campistas (fin de semana por ejemplo o agosto).
Las instalaciones de aseo personal son insuficientes dependiendo de la zona en la que te acampes.
Los grifos de los fregaderos son un verdadero infierno. Son de presionar y se cortan solos. No hay quien aclare ni un vaso sin sostener el pulsador, no da tiempo. Si no hay nadie usando los fregaderos el agua sale con tanta fuerza que te mojas hasta el ultimo pelo de la cabeza aunque midas dos metros. Entonces la situación es la siguiente: das al grifo de al lado (para que no te salga el chorro disparado al presionar tu grifo), presionas tu grifo, coges el utensilio a aclarar y,.... ya se te ha cortado el de al lado. Entonces la labor de aclarar la realizas entre un ojo en el grifo de al lado para que antes de que se termine y se apague le vuelvas a dar, otro ojo en tu grifo y a tientas vas aclarando. Total: un infierno fregar.
En cuanto al trato personal, después de 14 días acampados solo dimos con una persona que nos trato de un modo \"normal\". Del resto mejor ni hablar. Muy, muy deficiente.
Y a tener muy muy en cuenta: en el año 2020 no aceptan tarjetas extranjeras¡¡¡¡¡¡¡ por lo que o te llevas el fajo de billetes o pagas una bonita comisión por sacar en cajero.
En definitiva mejor elegir cualquier otro camping de la zona.

Niet vriendelijk aan de receptie. Je mag een plaats uitkiezen, je moet al zoeken om een redelijk stabiele plaats te vinden, moeilijk toegankelijk daar beneden, het was ook vuile aarde gelukkig had het op dit moment niet geregend, zijn maar 2 nachten gebleven. Voor ons geen ACSI camping waardig !!!! Zou er zeker nooit overwinteren !!!

Para acampar no hay sombras y esta todo seco, arboles jovenes sin crecer, te sientes un vagabundo mas que un turista, para no repetir, sin embargo la zona de caravanas muy bonita pero la de acampada libre es hostil. La piscina sin ninguna sombra, te cobran por darte una sombrilla de plastico. El bar y el supermercado con pocas cosas y de mala calidad.

Campingplatserna längst ner var inte trevliga. Inga utmärkta platser och folk vräker ut sig. Hittade till slut en plats med utsikt på ett bygge. Trist!

Insgesamt sauber, momentan mit einigen Bauarbeiten. Zu Fuß ist der Strand von Alvor und die kleinen Kneipen gut zu erreichen. Der sich auf dem Platz befindliche Mini Supermarkt funktioniert nicht. Zum Glück Fußläufig in 5 Minuten ein gut sortierten Supermarkt

pitches are not marked out except for a few as you come on to the site. after that it\'s a free for all. we went out for the evening having put our table and chairs away and when we got back someone was parked so close we no longer had space to sit outside. next day we moved to another pitch. pitches are not level everyone using blocks. showers and toilets were clean but in desperate need of update. sometimes hot sometimes not. site does not take credit cards. on the plus side the pool is lovely there is a supermarket 5 mins walk round the corner and a 7 minutes walk will get you to the harbour front with lots of bars and restaurants.

In mei geen vers brood en levensmiddelen op de camping gezien. Overigens geen probleem, want een grote supermarkt met iedere dag verse broodjes ligt op zeer korte loopafstand. Toiletgebruik wordt meerdere keren op een dag schoongemaakt, de douches zijn prima te regelen, goed heet water, ook bij de afwas. Uitstekende prijs/kwaliteitverhouding.
