“Vile place..Dont waste your money!”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 2 November 2011

Been going on Caravan Holidays for 15 Years.. This is the worst park i have ever been to.

I Picked this particular holiday park as it had been recommended by ITV’S ‘This Morning’, Hoseasons were representing it on their website and the marine holiday park website itself looked very good.

Had 2 caravans for the week. Not cheap either!

Alot of the staff were unfriendly, Not helpful and quite rude at times!-(When they wernt being moody sods) –especially in the mermaid cafe.

Reception staff wernt helpful in the slightest from when we first got there to when we left the park FOR GOOD!!

Soon as Me & My Family found the caravans, One of the main outside doors was broke,
Pillows and duvet were covered in blood & poo... were left face up on the bed by the ‘cleaners’-i use that word lightly.

Musty/mouldy smell in the bedrooms, dirty carpet in all rooms– especially under all the beds!
Rubbish left from the previous people who had stayed there

Didn’t supply the right sheets for even half the beds

The gas fire was a safety hazard

Kitchen was FILTHY DIRTY.
All of the laminate on cupboard doors were hanging of – layered with grease & dirt ( aswell as most of the appliances..

Fridge wasn’t not at the temperature it should have been.. also very dirty

Nothing was upto the basic clean/working standard that i was led to believe (im no snob either), how they can hire these caravans in this state is beyond me.. wouldnt send my worst enemy there.

Shower didn’t work properly, oven and grill didn’t work properly therefore i couldn't cook, takeaway and mermaid cafe's food was awfull (Change the chipfat once in a while wouldnt go a miss) so had to go on a mission to a decent pub/takeaway outside the grounds.

Only positive thing about the whole caravan park is how clean they keep the swimming pool.. lifeguards tested the water twice a day

Not as good as it looks on the website that's for sure.. Photo's must have been taken a good few years ago!

Settee was also broke, all the board underneath supporting it was damp and damaged.

VERY NOISY when your trying to sleep at night/early morning(1am-3am) with helicopters going around, noise from the industrial estate. Couldnt even shut the curtains at night to escape the beaming streetlight right outside the window as they fell down everytime they were touched.

Dont waste your money.. That is all

“Worth the time...”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 26 September 2011

Staff friendly, chippy great, bar and entertainment good, pool very good, park clean and tidy, had a Bronze caravan and it was superb for the cost...no problems and 24/7 security, worth a visit for a short break, Rhyl is very run down but plenty to do if you dont mind a short journey, well done Marine Holiday Park !

Room Tip: Bronze is basic but makes a good base.

“In the middle of nowhere”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 13 September 2011

person found this review helpful

The park was in between a council estate and an industrial estate. There were police helicopters going over most nights and our caravan was a good 5 minutes walk from the entrance. No pillows for the pull out bed and the sofa was filthy. As a group of young adults we were placed next to lots of families with small children which was rather stupid on their part. The amusements were small and the entertainment was lousy. There was dog mess everywhere!

“Would not go back”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 11 September 2011

person found this review helpful

Caravan not ready when we arrived
Caravn dirty
Mattresses were only good for the bin
Had to wash all plates, cups etc before using
fridge did not work properly
rowdy element that appeared to live at the park all the time
cafe served cold food
beware of the play area (wood chippings) they were sharp enough to go through my daughters shoe and stick in her foot
entertainment was ok especially for kids
you have to give a deposit for sheets
reception not open until 9am so beware if you have to leave early as you only get your linen deposit back on departure when you hand back your sheets!
