TAIGA Almeria Playa

Booked for one night intending to stay longer. However, for the camping pitches there is just one toilet/shower block for each sex. In the mornings the toilets etc are disgusting; Women have 3 showers which are flooded and the inside of the cubicles/doors and “shelf” is soaking wet. Nothing to wipe the floor dry before or after showering so … had to make do with a flannel wash in the sink. Expected better from the site considering the pitch fees & time of the year when showers are a necessity. We won’t be back. Read more Show less

I'll be back for another year, thanks to the staff and the director

Exactly what we needed. We came home feeling recharged, with the dogs thoroughly tired from all the walking, and our daughter delighted with the campground.

We really liked the facilities in general and, especially, how comfortable and well-maintained the bungalows are. We were lucky enough to stay in one with plenty of space out … front—perfect for a family with kids and dogs.

It’s a truly pet-friendly place, without those ridiculous restrictions like “pets allowed, but only under 10 kg.” There are even water stations where you can wash the dogs’ paws after walks or trips to the beach. Plus, the beach is just a stone’s throw away, right outside the campground, and there are plenty of opportunities for walks in the surrounding area.

The recreation area, with its restaurant and pool, was also very nice. The pool was quite crowded at times, and the water could have been cleaner—there was occasionally some debris floating in it—but overall we enjoyed it very much. The food at the restaurant was very good.

The campground also offers a wide variety of additional activities, and the staff was always very friendly and attentive.

We especially recommend this place to families with children and pets. We would definitely go back. Read more Show less

We really liked it—I went with my sister—and it was a really cool vacation. The best part was the activity leader, Luis—I'd give him a 10—he was so nice. And we're going back next summer🫶🫶

I've been there several times now with my family. We love the campground in general. I especially like the temperature of the pool water—it's nice and warm. That makes for a pleasant swim, and Luis, the activity leader, is great. I also appreciate that they respect the quiet hours, and having a security guard on duty is helpful.It’s important for … those of us staying there to get some rest.
Areas for improvement and things to keep in mind would be the water pressure in the showers and the fact that the water jets don’t all come out from the same side. That makes showering difficult and takes longer. Since there are only three showers, lines form. However, the sink area is perfect in terms of water pressure and volume. Another issue is the gaps around the doors of both the restrooms and the showers—they’re too wide, so privacy isn’t complete. The occasional onlooker might stop to watch, which isn’t pleasant when you’re in the middle of using the restroom or taking a shower. Read more Show less

I don't even know where to start. First of all, we arrived at the campground at 3:00 p.m. without having eaten, in 42-degree heat and blazing sun, and had to wait more than 30 minutes at the gate to check in—even though we'd already been required to check in online the night before (supposedly to save us this trouble), then they tell you the bar … is open from 9:00 a.m. to 11:00 p.m., but that’s not true—the kitchen closes at 4:00 p.m., and by the time we parked and unloaded our stuff, we’d already gone without food on the first day (they didn’t even give us a measly cold sandwich)
The entertainment coordinator was sick (I feel bad for the guy), but in three days they didn’t send anyone to replace him, so I ended up missing out on the campground’s entertainment.
The cleanliness of the glamping site leaves a lot to be desired: dirty windows, fungal growth on rotten food scraps behind the fridge, dirty utensils, lint the size of my head under the bunk bed… not to mention the food scraps and objects visible under the porch boards.
The beach?? You have to cross a road—don’t let them fool you into thinking it’s right on the beach—and on top of that, there isn’t even a single measly crosswalk to use; you have to risk your life and your children’s.
Sheets and towels? They don’t change them for 7 days—and keep in mind this was in August at 40 degrees, with kids, and we were paying over 120€ a night?? I find it unbelievable—it borders on being unsanitary.
Not only do I not recommend it, but I hope to forget the experience as soon as possible. Read more Show less
