Great location just outside of Rye - a pretty town and within an easy walk of lovely beaches. The staff, without exception were great. Friendly and smiling all the time and very helpful. The accommodation blocks of apartments have paper thin walls, so you can hear your... more

I'll start with the only couple of good points I could think of.... -Camber Sands has the most beautiful, clean, family friendly and child safe beaches that I have been to in a long while. The views are amazing and the beach is sand with dunes which seem to go on for miles.... more

We had blood up are walls and hairs in the bath and dust just about everywhere. Custmer service (or reception) monkeys could be more polite, one lady told us she would give it a quick clean but honestly it would take years to clean. Could not upset the children so had to... more

I stayed at Pontins Camber Sands for a fitness weekend and enjoyed the exercise classes but hated the accomodation. The room was smelly- old dusty wee smell, the rooms were so tiny you could not stretch your arms inside them, the bathroom was ok but we had a Leech/slug/worm... more

we had the miss fortune to stay for a long weekend 19~22 August 2011. From the second we arrived and the main gate was shut ( it never actually ever opened I think), we hated it. Where to start?, the appartments looked like cell blocks, and inside they were worse.... more

We were unfortunate enough to get a sun £9.50 holiday To pontins and thought for that price it would have to be a bargain. But we were wrong. It was the worst place we have ever been, it was so bad my son cried when we arrived. We couldnt believe how disgusting it was it... more

After collecting my 10 tokens for the £9.50 sun holiday offer I got conformation back to say we was going to pontins Camber Sands. Thought I would look up the park & came across the reviews, obviously after reading I wasn't holding out much hope for it to be a nice park,... more

Not changed since 1970
we booked this as a "sun holiday" cheapy, £15.00. Went down to take a look the weekend before as we live in Kent, the place hasnt changed since 1970! im sure this is the location of "holiday on the buses" film, filmed in the 70's its looks the same! we needed to see if this place was worth packing and going down there, so we did the snooping bit and had a wander round. Lots of chalet doors open,. lots of maids cleaning rooms. but i made my mind up there and then when i saw the decor. the carpet was marching out the door on its own. not very nice. so to have an all round point of view, we had a look through some windows and more open doors, same story. the public areas, cafe, (we had a bite to eat) was dismal. not a good holiday camp pontins. after experiencing the blackpool pontins, i would never, even if it was a last resort, stay in Camber. its a time wharp. get the bulldozer out, start again!!!
