'Wydmy Helskie' is highly praised for its superb and tranquil location, situated within a peaceful, pine-scented forest providing a serene retreat perfect for those wanting to escape urban life. The property benefits from its proximity to both the bay and the open sea, offering convenient access to beautiful, wild beaches and providing a quiet, natural setting ideal for relaxation. Its closeness to Jurata and Hel, along with the center of Hel just a short distance away, makes it a favored spot for nature enthusiasts. Guests particularly appreciate the magical road through a nature reserve leading to the sea and access to a private beach with hammocks on the bay side.
On the other hand, the rooms at 'Wydmy Helskie' receive mixed reviews. Although some practical amenities like towels and ground-floor entrances are available, many guests note that the rooms feel cramped and require refreshing and renovation. Cleanliness is a significant concern with reports of spider webs, sewage smells and overall insufficient upkeep. The lack of in-room entertainment such as TV and radio, sometimes even a refrigerator, adds to the disappointment, along with other practical issues like no hot water, leaking toilets and poor lighting. Security concerns have also been raised, as the rooms are reportedly not lockable.
Similarly, the cleanliness of the property presents a mixed experience. While some guests commend the clean and crisp bed linen and well-maintained toilets, others point out issues such as dirty cups and plates, dust and cobwebs. The relatively high price does not always seem justified given the dirty and sometimes smelly environments and there are reports of torn and stained linens and the absence of basic amenities like soap in the bathroom.
Overall, 'Wydmy Helskie' offers a beautifully serene natural location highly appreciated by guests, but the rooms and general cleanliness need significant improvements to match the high standards set by its surroundings.
