Holiday Village Satul de Vacanță offers a lively, albeit somewhat dated, experience reminiscent of an open-air market. While some visitors find it dirty and neglected with high prices for attractions, others appreciate the pleasant atmosphere, especially in the evenings, and the spectacular food options. It remains a decent choice for families with children who will likely enjoy the amusements.
"different from what it was 30 years ago, and not in a good way. More like an open air, weekend market, Quite dirty and neglected. Now it merged with the Luna Park nearby. But the food looked spectacular, being prepared in front of the visitors (only in some places)."
