Marlie Holiday Park

Em va agradar POD was spacious, clean and also liked the space in front where we setup our temporary kitchen and our kids enjoyed playing on the open green grass..

No em va agradar Toilets needs bit renovation but it’s fine.

Em va agradar Der Platz war sehr schön. Die Ausstattung war gut.

No em va agradar Die sanitären Einrichtungen wurden von den anderen Gästen sehr unhygienisch behandelt. Zum Teil war es grenzwertig schmutzig. Das Problem liegt hauptsächlich an den Gästen - es sollte als Reaktion dennoch öfters geputzt werden.

Em va agradar Did like all before, untill last visit.

No em va agradar What was meant to be a short family break turned into a disaster. We — two adults and two children — stayed at Marlie Holiday Park on the 4th of July and were placed in Pod 10, which turned out to be severely infested with bed bugs.

On the first night, we noticed some movement in the bed but didn’t think much of it — it was late, and we were exhausted after travelling. The shock came the next morning when we found dead bugs and a large number of blood spots on the sheets. We reported it straight away and were moved to another pod the same day.

We sent photos of the infestation to the local manager, who simply acknowledged receiving them and seemed more focused on pointing out that we’d been moved — almost proudly — rather than showing any concern. There was no apology, no follow-up, and no sign that the issue was taken seriously. It was only after several chase-up emails and escalating the matter to Head Office that we finally received any proper response.

At the time of the move, there were no obvious bite marks, but within a few days, all four of us began developing painful, itchy bites. What we didn’t realise is that bed bug bites don’t appear immediately — they started showing up 3–4 days later, continued for nearly two weeks, and took just as long to fade. The discomfort was ongoing and genuinely unpleasant.

Eventually, the General Manager contacted us — but the only offer was a refund for the accommodation, with no recognition of everything we had to deal with: a GP visit, antibiotics, out-of-pocket medical costs, and a day of unpaid leave.

To make matters worse, Pod 10 was re-let the same day we checked out, raising serious concerns about hygiene standards and guest safety.

One of the most worrying parts of this whole experience is the very real risk of bringing bed bugs home, which could have turned a bad holiday into a months-long nightmare. Thankfully, we managed to avoid that — but I honestly don’t even want to imagine what it would have meant for our home, our children, and our lives if that had happened.

This wasn’t just an unfortunate incident — it was a clear failure in health, hygiene, and basic customer care. The lack of accountability from local management and the bare-minimum response after escalation made an already stressful experience even worse for our whole family.

Em va agradar Nice quiet place. Not too busy. Clean and well organised.

No em va agradar Water in the shower way too hot. Not possible to adjust hot water temperature, too dangerous for everyone, especially little kids.

Em va agradar Pods are great and surroundings are nice as a bit out of the way

No em va agradar 24 pods with only 3 showers per sex! Each pods sleeps 4 people. Not enough facilities for people however they are hot.
Also the club house is really not great for families. Security guards, very expensive drinks and food plus the children's entertainment was terrible!

Em va agradar Stayed in the pods, which were lovely and clean. The swimming pool was clean and easy to book at reception and the club house food was delicious and fast to come out, even when it was busy. The entertainment was good, although we didn't take part with a lot of it. The site was good for young children, mine aged 6 to 11. They lived the arcade, but it was expensive.

No em va agradar The toilet and shower block near the pods was poor. It was dated, there was hot water in only one shower and it was often grubby. The walkway to the pods was extremely muddy, we spent the entire 4 days covered in mud no matter how we tried to avoid it, and it really does ruin the experience. Also no where to off load muddy shoes and no mop in the pod so we had to battle it in there too. I'm sure in a caravan this place is good, as they have concrete pathways, but u wouldn't recommend a pod unless you go in drier months.

Em va agradar The site is nicely located, pretty close to the beach. Pod was clean and comfortable.

No em va agradar There was not enough free space for kids to play around pods. It looks very neat and possibly more for couples. Toilets - no stairs only ramp as an only access. I like the location but because not much space close to the pods I'm not sure I will be back.
