Probably our fifth visit here and one of our favourite sites in Spain. Great facilities and very clean and well maintained site. The staff are very professional and pleasantly helpful. Not the area for history for sure but to relax , walk or cycle is ideal. Pilar is a good working town and plenary of bars and restaurants within 3km. The site restaurant is even better with excellent food at reasonable prices. Yes there is sim road noise from the rear of the site but we must be used to it now as it did not intrude. Serviced plots are generally spacious. 2 to thre km from the coast with lovely path and cycle ways. Will definitely return

Firstly, the water slides and facilities in general are pretty good. Especially for families & young kids. On arrival we weren't given much information about the camping and what's on. The reception just gave us some paper with the time table for kids club. but we figured things out as we went along. All part of the experience I suppose. We were not given any receipt of payment nor for the deposits on the adapters, the fridge or the gate card. We paid in cash. 2 swimming pools! Really good! Not deep but do the job of cooling you down. Down side of the swimming pools is that there are no sunbeds nor can you sit by the pool. Your towels etc you leave on the grass outside the fencing around the pool. Shame really because it would be nice to sit by the pool and watch my kids swimming. Not the end of the world! Kids entertainment we are still trying to figure out. Seems abit of a hit & miss right now. The plot size we booked was a stanard size. All plots have green mesh over them for shade. On closer inspection... the ground was dirty. cigarette butts, nails, sweet wrappers, hair bobbles and bits of metal from the toldos above. It's a shame the maintenance couldn't just check the floor for these things before someone checks in. Could of easily been cleaned. Animals: I'm an animal lover and have had my own pet dogs but I don't think everyone respects the rules of bringing your pet dog. Listening to a dog bark 2 parcelas away can be a nuissance at times. On one occasion, a lady brought her dog into the toilet with her. why someone needs to take the dog into the toilet I don't know. Totally un hygenic. There are signs on the toilet doors stating no dogs in the toilets. Also, we used the launderette facilities here and our clothes came out STINKING of dogs. The rules state no dogs bedding can be put in the washing machines. There are designated washing machines for washing dogs beds. Obviously people don't respect this rule either. So now we have clean clothes and towels that smell like dogs. On another note, there is a small basic spa which the use is included in your stay. On weekends you have to book a time slot. We had booked a time slot on the Sunday at 14;00h. We waited at the door to the spa for 10 minutes and nobody came. so we went back to reception to tell them we had 2pm booked and it turns out that it was closed from 2-3pm. Why did they book this time for us if it was closed. Alittle frustrating. We we told to go back at 3pm and see if there was any availability. The life guard on the door at the spa looked like he didn't want to be there. And sat playing on his phone outside the door to the spa the whole time we were in there. The time slot is 30 mins. He was already asking us to leave at 25 mins past. While there was a group of 8 kids waiting to get in. Without an adult present. Children must have a parent or adult responsible To enter the spa. Supposedly. Kids entertainment is ok. Although what was supppsed to be a movie night on Monday at 20:30 according to the timetable... they changed to Kareoke and animacion didn't turn up until 21.30 without any warning. Toilets and shower blocks are in general really good. The shower cubicles are a good size. The downside is the shower heads are fixed against the wall and cannot be moved. The sinks are spaced out with dividers and plug sockets and extra lights. The Cleaners are there alot doing their best to keep it clean. But it's a shame how disgusting people leave a toilet. The bins around the camping we think need to be emptied more often. Seeing the bins overflowing isn't a pretty sight. The bins are too small for volume of people on the site in June. The weekends are busiest and the most noisiest. The noise level around the camping goes on until 01:00am. Then of course you have the noise of children still running around playing at 01:00. People don't respect the hours of rest. So it's hard to go to sleep anytime before 12:00am. In general the camping is well maintained. The facilities are great! It's a beautiful campsite. Just the people who don't have any respect for the facilities and rules that let it down. We drove over 4 hours to come here for a family holiday with excitement. The kids are having a great time! Just afew tweeks need to be made and if people respect the rules more it would be perfect! I think we will come again next year and give it another go!! Thanks for reading! — at Camping Lo Monte
