The best thing is the pool area: everything is clean, bathrooms included, there is a snack bar and the slides are great fun. It costs extra. The campsite does not have much space for motorhomes and has no facility for emptying grey water. There is only one water tap, and it was difficult to reach it with the hose. There is a black-water disposal point. The bathrooms are clean, but the toilets have no seats or paper. The showers have hot water.Translating
Huge campsite where we were the only motorhome. The season has not started, but it is open all year because there are permanent residents. A family campsite, as many facilities are personalized. Sanitary block 1 has been renovated. We can empty the cassette but not drain the tanks. The beach is 2.5 km away on foot, but the road to get there is dangerous and we could not find a path.Translating
Great campsite. The staff were very polite. We arrived spontaneously and got a pitch (10 m long). Electricity was 6 A, but the breaker was probably 10 A. We stayed here for 3 nights at €24 per night for 2 adults and 3 children.Translating
Campsite close to the sea, with a small, unmarked pitch. Sewage smells nearby and in the facilities. Lots of flies. For one night we paid €8 for the motorhome pitch + €5.10 per person over 7, €4.50 for electricity, €1.50 per person tourist tax and an additional €5.50 per person for the pool!Translating
Not recommended. Look for another place.Translating
We were welcomed like a dog in a bowling alley. The pool has been abandoned and the water was black. The back of the campsite looks more like a Roma camp than anything else. We spent one self-sufficient night and did not even go to see the facilities; if they were like everything else, no thanks.Translating
They gave us a pitch next to several caravans and vans, without any separation; next to the bathrooms, which had an unbearable stench. Very old facilities. We came for the pools and then realized you can enter separately. In fact, pool entry is not included in the campsite price. On the other hand, I must say it is not expensive.Translating
I cannot understand the reviews. I paid €15 per night for a van with electricity. The campsite has everything you need. The only drawback is that it is quite noisy and the toilets are old.Translating
If you want to stay next to the entrance, where there is lots of passing noise, it is like being on the side of a road. You eat next to your neighbors and it is expensive and old, with no toilet paper or anything.Translating
Despite the previous reviews, we found the place pleasant. We arrived in the afternoon and were given a pitch in the middle of high season: €26.60 for 3 adults and a motorhome, including facilities and electricity. It was quiet, with a pool and slides (€3.95 extra), a very nice pool bar and food available. Departure before 3 p.m. the next day. A beautiful, restful stop and great for children.Translating
They are in the middle of a change of management. There is no grey-water disposal, the bathrooms are small and obsolete, and some showers do not have hot water.Translating
The welcome is perfect and the price is fair! Entering and leaving with the card is too complicated and does not work. Motorhomes are not the campsite's priority, and nothing is provided for emptying or refilling. The motorhome area is too far from the facilities, which do not work very well. In short, you get what you pay for at this time of year: €18. We will stay only one night because it is too noisy.Translating
Portuguese-style campsite, with pool access at an additional cost: €17 for four people. Price for 2 nights for 2 adults and 2 children: €44. Clean sanitary block. Departure offered at 3 p.m. Close to the beach on foot, 17 minutes.Translating
No hot water and light in the bathroom, no paper in toilets. To get to the campsite and to get out of the campsite you need to use the special card they are not working . You need to pay extra for the swimming pool for each day. They counted my seven year old daughter as an adult. I do not recommend even for a short stay.
Much too expensive at €25 for two people and one child. The pool costs far too much extra; the slide is useless and does not slide for €14. And I won't even mention the facilities, where nothing flushes and there is no hot water. In addition, there are no services on site.Translating
Not geared toward motorhomes. They have no grey-water disposal, and black-water disposal is in the bathrooms. The motorhome area is very small (5 or 6 pitches), with a very narrow entrance requiring a lot of maneuvering. The pool is very nice but costs extra (€3 for adults and children over 5). The restaurant is also excellent, though expensive. The beach is nearby by bicycle (10 minutes), but access is via the main road with quite a lot of traffic.Translating
Small space for maneuvering the motorhome. The branches were very low and hit the motorhome as we passed. The site had few signs and a confusing map. Affordable prices, but if you want to use anything else (pool, tennis court), you have to pay separately. The beach is more than 1.4 km away and the hypermarket is 750 m away.Translating
