Camping Playa Almayate Costa Cat.1

General information

7.9

from 16 reviews Write review

Almayate Costa campsite is situated on the south coast of Spain between Málaga and Torre del Mar. You camp right by the beach in the less touristy area of the Costa del Sol. You can walk down the beach and dive straight into the Mediterranean Sea. The pitches, located under trees and shade cloths, are cool and have ample shade.

Shaded camping pitches

The pitches are demarcated by trees. You will not enjoy a great deal of privacy as the pitches are fairly close together, but there is ample shade. The trees take care of that. Additional shade is created by the shade cloths over the camping pitches. The most beautiful pitches are to be found at the perimeters of the campsite. The pitches are somewhat sunnier here and you have a view of the beach and sea.

Dive into the Mediterranean Sea

Although you camp in the shade, you can swim in full sun on Camping Almayate Costa. At the edge of the campsite, beyond the shaded grounds, you will find the outdoor swimming pool. Do you prefer swimming in the sea? When you walk through the gate you find yourself directly on the beach of the Mediterranean Sea.

Polonaise and paella

In summer you will most likely see the children parade in a polonaise line or slide down an inflatable water slide. The entertainment team provides entertainment throughout the day and organises all kinds of events.

Feeling peckish?

You don't have to leave the campsite for your daily meal. The campsite shop has a fairly good selection. The restaurant is open throughout the day for breakfast, lunch and dinner. It goes without saying that the paella is a recurring item on the menu.

Travelling party: Couple

Stayed 2 nights early in January, but ACSI card was refused and we were told they only accept it February to early June. Well maintained site with bar, restaurant and supermarket (pool closed as it was winter). Shop also has a good selection of plugs, aerial fittings, groundsheet pegs & other bits and pieces. WiFi was unusable unfortunately whichever band you tried. Toilet and shower block very well cleaned and there was some warm water for dish washing. Torre de mar is a short easy cycle ride along the level (approx 3km). Pitches easy to enter with good access. Will return again in summer.
