85 Palomares Bajo, 04617, Cuevas del Almanzora
Been here?
Quiet campsite with spacious, level pitches and included services such as a swimming pool, jacuzzi, petanque court, restaurant, and water change. The pool is attractive, and the grounds and facilities are generally clean, but the sanitary block is small, limited, and dated. A recent July stay reported thick, relentless flies, including around the pool. A beach is walkable, while the larger Playa de Vera requires a bicycle or motorbike.

reluctant to only give 3 starts as the actual site is well designed, lively pool with plenty of siblings and umbrellas. washing and drying machines. toilet facilities clean and couldn't complain. However, stayed in 1st week of July and the flies were thick and relentless. Even by the pool they were always on you! For this reason alone we wound not stay again unfortunately!
After seeing the site rules, I wrote to ask whether I could cook on my pitch with my camping gas stove, and they replied that it was strictly forbidden and that I could use an electric griddle. You must pay for electricity for the pitch, regardless; it is also the only campsite I know that does not allow this.Translating
Very peaceful campsite; we stayed during the week. Spacious, level pitches, a very nice pool with sun loungers. We were very comfortable. You can walk to a beach behind the campsite. To go to Playa de Verá, which is nicer, you need a bicycle or motorbike.Translating
Beautiful, well-separated and sufficiently large pitches. Quiet location. Nice service staff at reception and in the restaurant. Sanitary facilities clean, but small, insufficient and dated. With more modern sanitary facilities, the site would deserve 5 stars.Translating
The pitches are good size, we spent a night here, we paid EUR 21 with ACSI 2 persons, the price contained the service and electricity. The WIFI is weak, the toilettes and showers are extremly small.
Very attractively laid-out campsite with many new accommodations. However, the only sanitary building does not fit at all: 4 women’s toilets, 4 showers and 4 sinks for 179 pitches, and it is almost makeshift. Moreover, a nuclear accident took place here in 1966 and the area is radioactively contaminated. The beach was only opened in 2024, although it is still contaminated — outrageous.Translating
Lovely campsite. Aways warmly welcomed back by the team & manager. Pitches are a good size with a water tap for every 6 or 8 pitches. Grounds are well maintained and the facilities clean. Well-stocked shop and a beautiful swimming pool. Entry/exit is ANPR. Easy walk or short cycle ride to town. €21/night and 6 for 7, so €18/night. Electricity is insufficient at only 8-10A. Recommended!
The site is quite okay, but two men’s toilets and four women’s toilets for the entire site is too few. For motorhomes over 7 m, it is very difficult to find a pitch that can be reached because the access roads are very narrow. Wooden posts, signs or low trees are in the way everywhere.Translating
Nice site in an otherwise purely touristy area. Highlight: the pool, still open even now. Friendly staff; restaurant overpriced for the quality.Translating
We found the staff very friendly and the campsite very quiet at night. Everything clean and the swimming pool is still currently open. Good sized pitches. Easy access to the beach.
A 10/10 campsite. Small but welcoming, with many activities for the little ones. Spacious pitches and a very affordable price. 15 minutes from the beach from the end of the campsite. The only drawback is that there is a lot of dirt; we missed green areas. Otherwise, excellent.Translating
Very nice campsite, everything you need.Translating
Warning: What this campsite does to its guests is unacceptable! We left immediately after checking in, even though we had already paid for several nights. As soon as you get out, you are attacked by flies and other insects. We are not sensitive, but relaxing here is impossible. Accordingly, all guests are rightly very dissatisfied!Translating
The campsite is generally fine, with adequate facilities and friendly staff. However, the pitches at the back are right next to the road and the noise is constant, which significantly affects sleep. Also, the nearby beach is not especially attractive, so it is not the best place if you are looking to enjoy the sea. Still, it may be an acceptable option for a short stopover.Translating
If I could give it 10 stars I would. The area is not the best but this is a little oasis of calm, particularly if like us you've had a long drive south and are ready for a bit of a chill out. The reception and bar staff are really friendly and it has had a recent refurb so the pictures on here don't do it justice.... the pool and bar area are super cool. Absolutely top notch, will return!!
Lovely campsite with spacious pitches. Hard standing but easy to get tent pegs into. Friendly reception staff were happy for us to look around and choose a pitch. Spoilt a lot by 2 noisy roads and automated fans in the plastic in houses next to the camping area. Note some people staying here still think it is a naturist campsite in what was the naturist end of the campsite!
We arrived and immediately left again. I first had to say how many nights I would stay and pay immediately. I wanted to look around first, but I did not get the impression that I was allowed to. The way I was answered was certainly not friendly. For me, no reason to stay. Good luck with the campsite.Translating
Nice, quiet campsite, very large pitches, everything included for €21 with ACSI. Friendly staff, no problem with anything.Translating
Campsite in the middle of greenhouses. The place is not good at all. Power cuts whenever they feel like it. Unpleasant beach. And far too few toilets and showers. I do not recommend this campsite.Translating
We stayed for seven nights for the price of six, good value at less that 20e a night. Good sized pitches and very clean but not enough toilets/showers.
The site is beautifully laid out and has sufficiently large pitches, bordered and shaded by bushes and trees. The sanitary facilities are clean, but there are far too few. The service and disposal area is a disgrace. There is only one water hose, which is also used to clean the chemical toilet. Dear people at Taiga Camping, this needs to be changed!Translating
Recommended place, very friendly reception. Bar open all the time, although the kitchen is closed Monday to Wednesday. Large pitches and ten-amp electricity. Internet works well, both the site’s and my own. In rainy weather the pitches are very wet, and there is a lot of water nearer the sea. There is plenty of space here now, come and stay.Translating
Pleasant stay for the price of €21 with ACSI! Large pitches near the beach, 150 metres away. Acceptable sanitary facilities, although the water pressure and temperature fluctuate considerably. Waste disposal is rather awkward because the containers were placed centrally at the entrance. Very friendly, helpful staff! A bicycle or similar is necessary!Translating
