Sandaya Toscana Bella

I stayed with my family at this resort during the week of mid-August
. The staff was courteous, and the entertainment was very enjoyable.
We stayed in the Safari tent; it wasn’t clean enough and wasn’t worth the price we paid, and the air conditioning wasn’t suitable for the accommodation.
The beach isn’t really within walking distance; a shuttle service is available but runs very infrequently.

So, all in all, the campground was okay. New restrooms, spacious, shaded campsites, very friendly receptionists, a bar, a restaurant, and entertainment—everything was fine.
A few notes, or at least some useful information.
1. The website says “pet-friendly,” but in reality, dogs are only allowed on the campground grounds (including the bar and restaurant). They’re not allowed in the pool area (by “pool area” I mean the lawn); there’s no fenced-in area where you can let them run free; the “shower” is a fountain with a hose attached, half of which is fenced off and provides only cold water.
2. Right next to the campground is a huge amusement park that plays loud music late into the night every evening (I don’t know if this is a regular occurrence, but it’s definitely not ideal).
3. The restaurant’s prices are crazy, to say the least. We ordered two pizzas, a serving of fries that we didn’t ask for—they just don’t serve pizza with fries (clever of them)—and four small bottles of water, and we spent 38€.
4. If you need to do laundry, think twice because the cost of a token for one wash—I repeat, one—is €5.
Conclusions: If you’re looking for 100% complete relaxation and if you have dogs, I wouldn’t recommend it; otherwise, it’s okay.

We stayed at this campground for two nights; it’s very nice and well-maintained, though some of the men’s restrooms were damaged!
I’m deducting one star for the location—it’s a bit farther from the ocean and the nearest town, but everything is easy to reach by bike!

Overall, it was a decent experience. The house was rather small and not particularly comfortable, mainly because of the uncomfortable mattresses and pillows, which made sleeping less pleasant. On the plus side, there was a small garden outside the house, which we found to be well-maintained and pleasant. The air conditioning was also very good; it worked well and was particularly useful on hot days.
The pool, on the other hand, was a downside: we found it to be somewhat unclean, partly due to the presence of hair in the water, and this is definitely an area that needs improvement.
A real strength was the staff: the activity leaders and employees were kind, polite, and helpful. Overall, this is a property with some positive aspects, but also several areas that could be improved, especially the comfort of the accommodations and the cleanliness of the pool.
