We have had a holiday at Pontins Camber Sands for the past 15 years.

My wife used to go with her parents and now we go with our family. We find the place warm and friendly, a little bit of a clean more wouldn't hurt but the idea is to enjoy... read more

Submitted By: Mr M Surtees
Just back from xmas break, returned one day early, everything previously said about bad state of hygiene is true. Our break was cut short by the presence of so called gypsies, pikies, travelers, tinkers or whatever you like to call them.

Submitted By: Ms S Ford
Visited Pontins in Camber Sands in July 2006. Having read some of the other peoples comments, I have to agree the budget accommodation is basic.

My advice is to book one of the club apartments which cost more but are less basic. You get... read more

Submitted By: clares
I had read the reviews on this site about a week before we left home and to be honest thought that people were probably making a fuss about nothing. Roughing it a bit is surely part of the holiday club experience.

How wrong we were! Let me... read more

After we were given the keys to our apartment, upon entering it, we found the floor of the apartment to be full of dust and dirt and our feet were sticking to the floor. My husband told my 2 year old daughter and I to wait outside with our luggage... read more

What sprung to mind when we entered the camp was CONCENTRATION CAMP.
After waiting in a very long queue for our keys we headed for our chalet, the smell of urine was strong and the loo had not been cleaned for weeks. The beds were ok and already... read more

The worst place I have ever been to. Did not even bother staying. £239 for 3 night self-catering, should have given the money away. Dirty, out of date, none of the machines work and no one to help you.

Would not go here ever if you paid... read more

All I can say is some people must have chronically low standards on here.

We have just come back from a long weekend at Pontins and hated it. The rooms were so dirty, we moved one of the beds out of the second bedroom so that we could fit a travel cot in and there was thick dust all over the floor and walls. Also when we... read more

Having read the reviews of other visitors I was terrified that I had booked a holiday where we would be at least mugged, poisoned then eaten by giant rats while lying in a pit of rubble! On arriving at Pontins we were given a welcome pack and... read more

What a hole full of Chavs, I admit I am a snob and usually holiday in the Far East or Southern Europe. I have never been anywhere like this in my life. It looks like a council estate, and most of the people also looked like they came from a council... read more
