My partner and I stayed in a bungalow No 50 at St Margarets Bay, Deal, 29th April for 4 nights. First night found ants nest, texted reception, put orange peel down. Next day I was woken my a strange man in a leather jacket, bald head entering my bedroom, while I lay half dressed. He left, and I was shocked not knowing who he was and why he was there. I...

Parkdean Resorts (formerly Park Resorts) online booking

i have booked to go on holiday at trecco bay the 18th of September 2023 and phoned the customer helpline to ask about my blue light card and was told to put the code in online.

when booking the holiday it wouldn't accept my card but I still proceeded to book as it was last minute surprise for a family member and your availability was low ..

i phoned today to ask if i could have the discount applied only to be told it was too late and would not allow it even though it would not work online...very disappointed as its our first time at park dean.

i had the same problem at holiday resort unity for entering my code but when i phoned they gave me a gift card to cover the cost of the discount/

Desired outcome: yes

Parkdean Resorts (formerly Park Resorts) Trying to speak to a representative

I have a problem. I have booked and a close relative has died so I am trying to rearrange dates etc. However, whatever I have tried it has been impossible to speak to a representative. I just keep getting referred to a website or "Manage your account" where it says you can chat by using a facility at the end, but no such facility is there.

So as I cannot attend on the dates in question it would appear that I have lost all the money I have prepaid.

Desired outcome: A full refund of my holiday totalling £168

Parkdean Resorts (formerly Park Resorts) Complaint feedback reference 167309 has not been responded to since my booking 9784920 at sunnyfleet at the end of march?

Chaotic arrivals set up in entertainments room delayed until 4pm so visitors becoming angry. No direction to caravan, had to ask gardener. Curtain missing from door. Generally unclean so sorted ourselves. Rip in kitchen flooring. Rip in seating. Plasters holding shower head. Unclean smell and informed by cleaning team air sprays not strong enough. Bird muck on windows for duration - told near a hedge and not resolved even though we asked for a mop to clean ourselves and adjoining empty caravans were been jet sprayed. Very little entertainment. Pool poor and changing areas disgraceful so family did not want to use. Noise of chain saw throughout the week. Thursday awoke to no water. Called reception to be told that we had no electricity either and should have been informed. Obviously were not as we could have prepared for personal medical needs. This resulted in family member having to return home early. 2 small bottles of drinking water and lighter delivered after refusing to go to reception to collect as only just up. All of this was reported to your agent as soon as we got home 3 April and yet to have an answer adding to our over disappointment and opinion of Pardean

Desired outcome: Full refund or replacement 7 day holiday as a gesture of goodwill

Parkdean Resorts (formerly Park Resorts) Unkept caravan

I have used your services at parkdean for many years, and have had good experiences staying at your parks especially in California cliffs.

I have just come back from a week break at your park in southerners and I am very disappointed. Listed below are the reasons why.

After over a 7 hour journey to your park we arrived to find the boiler (photo 1) with an error, we were unable to get a direct phone line to the reception, so had to then drive to reception to report the problem.

We had the television on, within 20-30 minutes the screen went blank and we only had sound. Again we had to go back to reception to report the television not working. (photo 2, with two televisions) On both of these occasions it was dark cold wet and windy.

The fridge would not close properly, you had to make sure the cupboard door on it is pushed closed with force as the door seems to have dropped. (Video 1)

The shower was unable to be turned down to a cooler setting and was leaking from part of the connection. The shower lead was unravelling and parts off the coating was flaking off, which I had thought at one point I had cut my finger as the flaking is sharp. (video 2 photo 3)

There was dead flies on the carpet and window seal, bits missing from the corners of the window frames and what looked like someone’s fingernail under the tv unit. (Photo 4&5)

The seating in the caravan was appalling, the covers were ripped and one was so bad I put one off my own blankets over it. (Photo 6,7,&8)

On the Wednesday afternoon we were then disturbed by workmen wanting access to the caravan to fix in Wi-Fi.

I really did not not enjoy this experience at your park and feel let down. We had a view of the side of a green caravan and was very disappointed that we wasn’t made aware of how far away from where we were based to the shop and the amenities on the site.

I do want to thank the staff at the park who attended to our needs on arrival who fixed the boiler and found us another television for us, they are an asset to the park and they did there best to help us, I also don’t blame the men fixing the wi fi as they are only trying to do their job, but I do feel these sort of things should be done when the park is close to paying customers or when the caravans are not occupied.

Desired outcome: Voucher or refund for myself.For the caravan to be up to standard before being let out.To have any work that's been planed to be done on the caravans to be done before or after clients are using the service.

Parkdean Resorts (formerly Park Resorts) Caravan - Pardean Resort Vauxhall Holiday Park

Stayed at Vauxhall Holiday Park in August 2022. We had a bad experience with a horrible caravan here before so made sure that we booked a new for 2022 caravan.

When we arrived there were stains all over the carpet in the living room and worst of all blood stains up the wall of the bathroom.

I was disgusted but didn't want to complain as I'd just done a 4 hour drive there and wanted to relax and enjoy my holiday.

We had plans each day and before we knew it, it was the end of the holiday. I spoke to the customer relations team on site and they gave me their complains email address.

I emailed with the pictures and my complaint and all they said was 'thanks for letting us know so we can improve holidays for others'. No compensation was offered. They said it was their final decision.

Very disspointed.

Desired outcome: Partial refund

Parkdean Resorts (formerly Park Resorts) Mis-leading website information, cancelled services and facilities, poor quality of food, poor customer services

I booked a weekend holiday for myself and other family members including 3 children under 4, arriving 22nd July 22. The day before arrival I received an email stating "due to unforeseen circumstances" outdoor activities were cancelled and the restaurant had limited food choices. No opportunity to cancel and rebook for another date when facilities were fully functioning.

Only informing us the day before arrival and sneaking it into the welcome email left very little option other than to travel to the park,.

On visiting the restaurant we tried to place an order via the mobile app, which wasn't working! We then queued for a considerable period of time to place or order only to find food was so limited that the only option for the children was sausage and chips! Adult meal selection was also limited. When the food did arrive an hour later, the beans on the children's plate were so dry that they had actually formed a crust whilst items on the adult meals were missing items. The food was also luke warrm and by the time we’d gone to the bar to complain the food was then stone cold. A staff member eventually came to the table with a bowl of “fresh” beans and to inform us that they were out of the other items on the menu which were listed on the adult meals. We did make a complaint there and then but were told no one could deal with it and we'd have to speak to guest services the next day. Absolutely ridiculous for the £78.28 spent on food and drinks.

The only machines in working order were the games requiring £2.00 and none of those requiring 2 or 10 pence's!

On the first evening of arrival the sofa suddenly collapsed leaving a large section sunken and unable to be sat on.

There were no mattress protectors on the beds.

Take away was closed and had been for a considerable period of time.

The toilets and swimming pool changing rooms were disgusting.

The situation for booked swimming and changing rooms was beyond chaotic.

I sent an email of complaint on Friday 22nd July to tummel.[protected]@parkdean-resorts.com and visited Guest Services on 23rd July 2022 to inform Guest Services Representative of the situation. I was informed that yes, all outdoor and swimming activities were cancelled and food limited due to staff shortages.

I requested a full refund of the food and drinks bill and was told this would have to be authorised by a manager. When I was recontacted I was informed this refund had been refused but I was offered £70 worth of vouchers for use in the bar and restaurant that evening. This voucher refund was refused and I again requested a full refund of the £78.28.

I was again contacted by a park representative to say the food refund had been refused but they would offer 10% discount off our next booking with Parkdean which I refused and therefore the matter would have to be taken up with head office.

The facilities and services were so bad we left a day early.

I complained to Parkdean Head Office, which took several emails to different departments and finally received a standard response after emailing the CEO. The email hid behind terms and conditions and refused any money back on the holiday but did offer a full CASH refund on the meal, however, when I emailed back to say their response was not acceptable and they had not addressed any points raised but I would accept a full CASH refund for the meal they responded by saying this refund had now been withdrawn as the matter had not been raised at the time. This is a blatant lie as it was raised at the time and the truth of the matter is Parkdean didn't have any competent staff on site to deal with it at the time.

On checking Facebook and Trip Advisor reviews the situation which was beyond Parkdean's control appears to have been going on for considerable period of time, however, they are still advertising and selling holidays offering facilities and services which have not been available for a considerable period of time.

They are falsely advertising holidays, facilities and services which aren't available then hiding behind their T&C and their customer service is incredibly poor.

Desired outcome: I am requesting the full cash refund of the £78.28 food bill already agreed and a a refund of the costs of the booking.

Parkdean Resorts (formerly Park Resorts) Mis selling Caravans

So we’ve just come back from a weeks holiday at your Newquay holiday park. We stayed in a polzeath caravan as we saw it on your Newquay Parkdean fb site and your online booking site! Well the one advertised is not the one you actually get! We arrived and couldn’t believe how small it was and did not represent the pictures at all!

I carefully researched this caravan as I needed it to be big enough for my son who has autism and adhd. Absolutely disgusted to see your mis selling your caravans!

I paid well over a £1000 for this caravan and would of never of booked it if your photos actually represented the photos of the actual caravan we were getting. I feel so disappointed and will never come back to one of your parks.

I spoke to reception and they could offer us another caravan on the Monday but it wasn’t as nice even though it had slightly more space! But we didn’t want to disrupt my son by moving caravans because of his conditions. Also when we arrived there was a lot of rubbish around the caravan and dirty sheets etc left outside the caravan for over 24 hours until we reported it! (See photos attached) the light above the dining room table was missing and the extraction fan didn’t even work!

Half the stuff was closed on site and the swimming pools shut so early even though you could book swimming slots up to 6pm! It was so hot so we needed a place to cool off as the caravan was a hotbox!

I would like a partial refund due to your site misrepresenting your caravans!

Desired outcome: Partial refund

Parkdean Resorts (formerly Park Resorts) Holiday booking, food, entertainment

Firstly When I called to change my booking from Bideford bay to Lake District I was told that that white cross bay would be most suitable for my 3year old granddaughter. After settling in to our lodge which we found very nice, we decided to go for our evening meal. We waited over 1.5 hours and only after complaining received our meal, this costing over £75 was to a low standard. We asked if there was any activity which we got a reply of no because it was the man’s night off. Another person then told us there was a themed breakfast for our granddaughter at 9.30 am the following morning. We attended the 9.30 breakfast and after paying another £50 + meal was told there was no entertainment. Too top this off we were then told our meal there would be no eggs on our breakfast. We ordered 3 mega breakfast 2 regular breakfast and a mini breakfast. The waiter then came out and brought out 3 mega breakfast and 2 mini breakfast. This has been very upsetting for my family.

Desired outcome: I would like compensated for all our inconvenience

Parkdean Resorts (formerly Park Resorts) Accommodation

Parkdean Ruda,Clovelly Lodge Number 4

Booking reference number is 9229986

Family Bathroom had Black mould, cracked wall tiles, Cracked Bath panel that was in their own words "Dangerous " as it could cause an injury. Missing shower plastic strip between bath and shower screen so when the shower was in use the Bathroom flooded creating a slip hazard.

Ensuite off main Bedroom shower cubicle had the door missing & replaced with a shower curtain however this had Black mould on it,  also the plastic strip off the missing door was completely covered in Black Mould, the shower tray also had a substantial amount of Black mould on it broken tiles & the shower plug was filthy.

There is no way any this property had been cleaned to any standard that anybody would have found acceptable, the neglect & lack of maintenance of this property was clear for all to see including damage to the Microwave & kitchen unit damage.

My Son who has AUTISM found the lack of cleanliness very disturbing and could not bring himself to use either of the showers or bath for fear of catching a disease, the distress that this caused my son was disgraceful & unacceptable, you don't spend £900.00 for 4 nights to expect that.

I reported this to the reception staff who after seeing the photos I had taken asked if they could put things right as the Bath panel was in a Dangerous state of disrepair.

I gladly agreed and made arrangements for them to resolve the situation.

They also stated that the property was due to be cleaned next week when the property was not in use ! & it was unfortunate that the property had been in constant use, I did not find this situation acceptable & informed them that I wanted a refund.

As we were going off site for a few hours they could come immediately to address the issues. When we returned nothing had been done.

I went back to reception they sent maintenance to fix issues, 2 staff arrived had a look stated they didn't have a replacement Bath panel & plastic strip to stop water from pooling on the bathroom floor. They just kept saying they worked on heating & boilers & would try to fix the problems. The solution was to gaffer tape the Bath Panel, place a strip on the glass to stop the water going on the floor, the fix failed water still leaked all over the floor. Nobody came to clean the BLACK MOULD OFF !. I have phoned, emailed Parkdean sent them a recorded letter to which they have not replied to.

I have also sent photographs of the conditions that we were faced with when we got into the accommodation after waiting for the cleaning team to finish up on the day we arrived! What they cleaned I have no ideas.

Parkdean have said they carried out an investigation & have said that they have reviewed your complaint and can see that the General Manager of Ruda has upheld their decision to offer you a 20% holiday sales voucher. I believe this resolution is fair and reflective of the issues you raised and we wouldn't look to offer anything further. I have now been offered a 20% holiday sales voucher. I believe this resolution is fair and reflective of the issues you raised and we wouldn't look to offer anything further. I have now been offered a 20% gesture of good will which I informed them was unacceptable & I would not accept, but they still paid it into my account anyway after telling them I would not accept this.

My Son has been traumatised over this experience and.as I stated to them there is no way that we could ever return to a Parkdean Resort ever again.I.could not put him through this ordeal again. I am still waiting for a response from 10 days ago where they asked for 5 days to respond to my latest email.

Desired outcome: Full refund

Parkdean Resorts (formerly Park Resorts) Service at camber sands parkdean

Rented from a private owner. Caravan was lovely. Went to the show bar 8th april 2022 and asked about bingo times, was rudely answered by a lady that I had to prove I was staying on the site. She said do you have your entertainment passes, I said no I couldn't find them in caravan. (being my first night I was eager to get ready and out for the entertainment). Lady who I now know to be the entertainments manager said well i'm not loosing my licence selling you bingo. I said how will you lose your licence? She said if your not staying here on site, I said I am staying here and showed her the confirmation booking for my caravan she said that wasn't good enough and to show my caravan key. I said it was with friend back at caravan. So asked friend to run down with key. Julie entertainments manager said it wasn't good enough as it hasn't parkdean on it. I said she owns the caravan so it won't. Refused to sell me bingo. Dam right discusting. I have been to the same park 4 times before. Never a problem, also she wasn't asking the rest of the queue for proof. Julie the entertainments manager.

Parkdean Resorts (formerly Park Resorts) Torquay re booking

I was due to arrive this afternoon at 4pm. offcies have advised to not travel and insurance companies have said they won't cover anything if something happens during our travelling. I've messaged the ParkDean Torquay to re book for some other weekend, but, I was told that they are going to decide if they are opening today or not and that this decision will be out at 6pm today. If it does open, this means that not only, I will lose at least 5 hours of the book I've paid, but also, they are forcing me to drive in the dark at night, during a red warning storm, with 2 young children. It is very frustrating that they don't care about the safety of their guests.

Yours faithfully.

Desired outcome: I should be given another weekend that it's safer to travel.

Parkdean Resorts (formerly Park Resorts) Smelly old caravan

Booking no. 9061913 arrived on Friday night 8th Oct 2021. 2 adults and 2 children. Walton, Essex. I phoned the day before arrival as was rather cold weather and asked if had central heating, was told no and no other accommodation available. Small plug in radiator left in lounge which didn't help much as 3 bedrooms! We were cold. Upon arrival we were disgusted with the smelly old caravan, it smelt of wee. And we had to walk quite a way from our car to the caravan which was problematic, couldn't park near caravan at all! I would never go there again, nobody seems to care and as fully booked had to put up with it. Managed to do this until Sunday morning, we had had enough and went home. I emailed on the Monday and told them what happened and I have never had a response, just lots of emails asking me to book another break! Very poor customer service.

Parkdean Resorts (formerly Park Resorts) Bideford Bay Holiday Park

We had a holiday at the above Site order number 8837348 13th Sept for a week. A few days before the holiday I found out this was set on a very steep hill. As my husband was having a minor op on his knee few days before arrival. I contacted the site directly to ask if we could be on a level situation. After a 7 hour journey we arrive and find out our request had not even put on the computer. Hense we were situated at the top of the main site a quarter of a mile from all the entertainment pools food court. Etc The male receptionist was very understanding and said he was upset that nothing was recorded. He admitted it was their fault and tried to find us alternative accommodation on different sites. This was to no avail. We were therefore completely in the clouds with no WiFi as that only worked in the main entertainment area. He spoke to a manager who offered us a partial refund, as this was totally their fault. To date we have been back a month now and have not received anything. Could you please look into this matter on our behalf. I think the lads name was Alex. When phoning I spoke to one of the two girl receptionist but unfortunately didn't take a name. Thankyou

Desired outcome: The partial refund we were promised on arrival

On arrival we had no clean linen the previous holiday makers was still on. The caravan obviously hadn't been cleaned we have photo proof of this there were maintenance issues. The caravan was nothing like the photo on the booking page we booked a Landreath and were put in a gemini 2 which was too small for our party. We were given vouchers to use on the site but my daughter and her fiance were that disgusted with the bed they slept on the sofas

Desired outcome: I think we should receive compensation as the holiday was ruined

Parkdean Resorts (formerly Park Resorts) No cooking facility and numerous issues

On the day of arrival we noticed our cooker wasn't working and reported it straight away but no one came, it took 8 days and reporting daily, eventually contacting head office to get someone to look at it and fix the oven, the grill still didn't work repair man said he would order a part and it would be at the most three days but on day 14 (departure day) still not fixed. So it cost an absolute fortune eating out or take away with a family of 6, as we had no oven
Also not enough bedding for our booking even though it was booked one year in advance. Also asked for easy access as my father is disabled and put on a hill three caravans up. I think it's disgusting as we paid for a better grade of caravan and not a sun holiday £1386 is a lot of money

Desired outcome: Compensation of having to eat out

Parkdean Resorts (formerly Park Resorts) Numerous issues during stay at thorness bay, cowes

Booking ref 8989582. Stay from 26/7/21 to 30/7/21. I had originally booked a stay at a different Parkdean resort on the Isle of Wight for my family and my mother, where we would have been staying in a tent. Unfortunately, my mother was taken ill a few days before going and camping would have not been appropriate for her. Therefore, we booked a lodge at Thorness Bay at the last minute.

We were directed to our lodge of 6 Medina Rise at 12.30pm and told that if the green dot was on the outside, it was clear and ready. As we entered the address at the early check in time, we found it to be a complete mess. The TV was still on. There was a dirty towel on the sofa. There was rubbish and half empty vodka bottles on the side. We immediately walked out and went back to reception. The receptionist went down and reported back to that she believed people were still asleep inside. We were directed to the bar to wait. It was 2pm when we were able to get back into the lodge and even then, we had the chase the reception, as they had forgotten to call us. They did agree to refund our early check in charge, but this would take 7-10 days.

As we re-entered the lodge, it was obvious that this was a rush clean. We still found food in cupboards and in the freezer, rubbish under the beds and unemptied bins. The old bed sheets were left on the floor outside the lodge, but were not collected at any point during the time of our stay.

I did discuss with reception our other booking at Nodes Point and I did ask if anything could be done about a refund for this. They did offer me £75 in vouchers which I was happy to accept.

On 28/7/21 we had been relatively comfortable, when we attempted to cook dinner using the gas oven and hobs in the lodge. We had these before and had no issues. However, this evening we had a substantial drop in gas pressure that meant none of our food would cook. We called out of hours, who attended within 10 minutes and was very helpful. However, he was unable to fix it and said that we would have to eat out that evening. He said he would put the issue on report and we had best speak with the manager, Katie, in the morning. We went to the on-site bar and when we were ordering our food, the bar manager, Connor, came over to see us. He had been told about our situation and offered us 30% off the bill. He stated that was as much as he was allowed to do and we accepted, but did tell him we would still speak with reception in the morning about the remaining amount and the ruined food that was partly cooked. With these discounts, the total bill came to just under £63.

The following morning we went to speak with Katie, but found she was not available until noon. When we returned, she refused to come out to speak with us and instead a staff member called John, was continually running back and forth between us. He advised that Katie was 'too busy dealing with other issues.' We told John everything that happened.

Whilst we were here, I received a email with my £75 of vouchers. Reading these, I found out that there were not valid on bank holidays or school holidays. This was not made clear to me at the time of offer and as a family with 3 children all of school age, is completely useless to me.

When our matter of the food was brought back to us, we were told that we would be given no other recompense, as 'you have had too many vouchers already.' This was incredibly upsetting to me.

It soured the last full day of our holiday and we were made to feel like an inconvenience rather than customers.

Desired outcome: Refund of money spent on food; apology; vouchers I can actually use
