This is a large site with some level and some slightly sloping pitches, some with shade from trees.
Three super clean shower / toilet facilities. And at least two grey / black water disposal facilities.
If you don't fancy the 20 min walk to catch ferry to Cadiz, you can cycle and either lock up your bike at the terminal, or take it with you on the ferry.
The site is next to a lovely sandy beach.
Buses only pa's the site in high season.
The only downside was the Mosquitoes 😳 we and many others suffered from bites day and night. We sprayed out of season with Acsi card €25 / night including Ehu.

Site was clean facilities adequate.
Used the laundry which was well organised.
Site is accessible to walk to shops etc.
Was able to get to Seville on a fairly short drive but also local transport right outside the site.
Dog friendly

A very good site with a price to match once the Acsi discount ended in mid June.
Friendly and informative staff. Well maintained facilities are kept very clean. While the water for dishwashing etc is not as hot as it should be the showers were hot enough.
Accessible motorhome service point.
The wifi within the price flies. Nice pool and there’s a small supermarket on site as well as a restaurant which we didn’t use. Beach is across the road and there’s a flat walk into the town; the streets of which are nice to stroll around. Café’s, restaurants and supermarkets are there.
Transport is good with a bus services 5 or 10 minutes walk away. As with many large towns a bono card is available for 2 euros cutting the ticket price from 1euro40 to 50 cents and 1 card can be used by a couple.
There’s an excellent train service and we used it to visit Seville and Jerez 10 minutes away and certainly worth a visit as was Seville.
Took the 30 minute boat ride to Cadiz.
Flies and insects with attitude were conspicuous by their absence.
We were only going to stay a few nights but ended up staying 10.

Relief getting to this campsite and finding there was an option to not be pitched under a 'tarpaulin and plastic Mausoleum'. Previous two sites were a disturbing experience due to total enclosure in tarps and plastic, even more so when the locals engaged en masse in the late night ritual of deep frying chips and sweeping up large clouds of dusty sand.
Playa de la dunas had the option of more open, car park type pitches that did have some shade. Facilities were fine. There were two MH dumping points with chem disposal. It is a fairly large site, so best to position appropriately for these facilities. There is another dense forest area full of tarps and chips. We avoided this!
30 minutes walk to ferry for a trip into Cadiz. Local town is 10/15 mins walk away and has everything. Local beach is visually stunning, but let down by wind. It is a windy area, so beware of the sandstorms. Stayed 3 nights. Until a combination of Sahara type sandstorm and mouthy locals forced us to leave.
A bit of a tip gleaned from the first week of our 6 week tour is 'beware the lone caravan that has all the appearance of being in storage'. Make sure you pitch well away. One day the local crew will rock up and that lone caravan is party central 24/7.
With this site we believe the main driver of the anti social behaviour is the local port and the 'facilities' they provide. Young males turn up in large groups to take advantage. Notionally the site prohibits this, but in practice does not, as the 'caravans' presumably are a good earner.
In summary this is as far from a 'family site' as you can get. Truly shocking. Any good marks are that it is good for Cadiz.

Well this is not a good review for the campsite! We are enroute to Estapona area from Bilbao, we do ‘‘this trip every year but normally stop at Rosalida in Conil, however decided on a change hence a stopover here for three nights. I emailed giving our details and asked to make a reservation.
They replied promptly saying no problem! On arrival 2pm there were 2 pitches available one unacceptable because of trees which left us no option other than leaving the town. The pitches are basically a car park layout, no hedges very close together, less than 3m behind us. They have no serviced pitches and approx 100m to a water tap.
The one chem toilet disposal is by the motorhome Service point 200m from our location. Normally you find a disposal point in the shower block, no such luck. There appears to be long stay units on site, good luck to them. The shower block seems reasonable and clean but only one block for the touring part of the site.
The supermarket is only open in high season but you can buy water and bread in the bar/restaurant. The staff didn’t seem very interested in the reception. They prefer to rent the cabins than cater for touring units in my view. The camping pitches are very close to a housing estate and there are many barking dogs.
You can walk to Mercadona, 15 minutes for supplies. The ferry terminal to Cadiz is double that distance. We have visited the town in the past but the site we stayed on has closed. The only plus is a trip to Cadiz by ferry. Would not return!

Really liked this site and received a very warm welcome. Pitch size and location of our pitch were very good and our fellow campers were very friendly. The toilet and shower facilities were some of the best we'd experienced in Spain - very spacious with plenty of hot water.
The location of the site itself was great for visiting Cadiz via the catamaran/ferry about a five minute bike ride from the campsite. Lovely walks and cycle routes around.
A wee bit disappointed in the restaurant on site, and the supermarket is only open during the summer months. However, the town of El Puerto de Santa Maria is on the doorstep with supermarkets and cafes/restaurants.

Large site very near the beach, very clean facilities and generally a well managed campsite.
There are different types of areas and pitches.
When we arrived we were directed to an area that was very very busy, cramped and quiet noisy, particularly at night.
However it was very shady and Cadiz can get very hot!
The next day we moved to a large open area which had loads of space and very large pitches.
There is a water ferry about 20 minutes from the site that takes you into lovely Cadiz.
I would go there again but opt for the large open area

It's five years since we were last here and not a lot has changed. Last time we were here in Spring, so it was busier. This time it was a bit quieter, so we had a pitch nearer to the shower block, which is not heated although there is plenty of hot water. There were a number of people of various nationalities staying here for Christmas, although as far as I was aware there was no entertainment. However we only stayed a few days so couldn't really judge.
We enjoyed a trip to a bodega in Sanlucar de Barrameda, one of the three sherry towns (we'd visited the others last time. ) Sanlucar is the home of Manzanilla, a delicate sherry which is said to taste slightly salty because of the nearby sea.
The awkward laundry arrangements haven't changed, and for long stays are a lot less convenient than the self-service launderettes found in most campsites.
On the whole I wouldn't want to spend the winter here, but for a short visit it's fine. The town is interesting, a real Spanish town and not at all touristy. There's a very ornate cathedral, with several storks' nests on the roof (and in December, they were all occupied!)
We paid a reasonable 16 euros with our ACSI card.

Take note of the height limit on entry of 3. 3 metres. If you exceed that height or are a wide unit there is another entrance which will be opened upon request. We paid 20 euros per night in February 2012 for two adults and the unit which seemed expensive taking everything into account.
The shower block was modern and clean. However for some it might be a long walk to the chemical disposal point - the only one we discovered was by the Motorhome dump. If you have a medium to large outfit you can be accommodated - but watch out for the low walls! Some might say the site resembles a large car park and units do seem to be very close together with an obvious effect on privacy.
Great position with adjacent cycle tracks and an attractive promenade which hosts a weekly market close to the site on Tuesdays. The ferry to Cadiz is within walking distance (about 25 minutes). We used a Mercadona supermarket about 15 minutes walk from the site.
In our view a splendid site for a short stay taking in a visit to Cadiz. However we met people who had stayed for several months and were quite content.
If we were to visit Cadiz by motorhome again we would certainly think about staying here.

This is a large municipal campsite which is well-maintained but a bit noisy. There is also some noise from the adjacent public sports complex, going on until 10 or 11 at night occasionally. The pitches are grassy/sandy and of good size. The toilet block is excellent, clean, spacious and modern. There is a well-equipped launderette but to gain access you have to get a chitty from reception then find one of the cleaners and get her to let you in - a bit of a hassle! There is an on site supermarket but only open high season. The bar and restaurant were open in low season and were popular with the locals. There's no wifi, but free internet use in reception, or in the bar it's 1 euro for 20 minutes. There's a beach nearby but the main attraction of this site is its position in the famous 'sherry triangle', and its proximity to Cadiz. The town of El Puerto itself has a number of sherry bodegas including Osborne, which is well worth a visit - loads of tasting! Jerez is not far away and as well as more bodegas - we enjoyed the tour of Tio Pepe - it also has the fabulous Andalucian Riding School which puts on a wonderful show of horsemanship on Tuesdays and Thursdays. From El Puerto you can also take a short ferry ride over to Cadiz which is a city with a fascinating history.
