Summary created out of 151 reviews

The campsite is praised for its enthusiastic and friendly staff, with a particularly dynamic animation team providing varied activities and quality shows. Direct beach access is a major advantage, as are the well-maintained swimming pools with slides and water features for children. Guests appreciate the peaceful atmosphere and central location near attractions, though some note that privacy is limited due to the proximity of mobile homes and that there is insufficient lighting on the paths in the evenings.

    The upper level is poorly maintained; upon arrival, there were tiles on the floor, cobwebs, and squashed mosquitoes on the ceilings and interior walls.

    The campground has relatively few water activities compared to other nearby campgrounds—it’s not very fun.
    The campground is quiet and well-located.
    Watch out for bugs in the accommodations—we came out covered in bites and couldn’t find the culprit....
    Also beware of misleading claims like “facing the sea”—because no, there’s no ocean … view, and the accommodations are often crammed right up against each other. (The window of our bathroom looked right out onto the neighbor’s patio -_-)
    Stay away from the restaurant! The cook handling the meat with a cigarette hanging from her mouth—NEVER IN A MILLION YEARS!!!

    Camping assez pauvre en équipement aquatique par rapport à d'autres camping voisin , ça manque de fun.
    Le camping est calme et bien situé.
    Attention au bestiole dans le logement , on est ressorti mitraillé et impossible de trouver le coupable....
    Attention également au fausse info du style 'face à la mer' car non il n'y a pas de vue sur la mer et les logements sont souvent collé les uns aux autres. (la fenêtre de nos toilette donnait sur la terrasse du voisin -_-)
    Le restaurant est à fuir ! La cuisinière qui manipule la viande avec la clope au bec , JAMAIS DE LA VIE !!!

    ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

    Great stay at this campground! We had a wonderful vacation and especially enjoyed the entertainment team. Hats off to the director—he’s truly top-notch! I’d never seen a manager take the stage with such enthusiasm, fun, and energy! It’s really great to see, and it contributes so much to the campground’s great … atmosphere.

    The entertainment team was also fantastic—dynamic and very friendly. We absolutely loved the mini-club—the kids really enjoyed it and had a blast there.

    The campground is also in a great location, and the staff made us feel very welcome. Thank you to the entire team for this wonderful stay!

    The only minor downside—which has absolutely nothing to do with management or the entertainment team—concerns the snack bar. Unfortunately, we found the staff there to be rather aloof, not very cheerful, and sometimes unpleasant. With the exception of Romy, who was always smiling, welcoming, and in a good mood, and who really raised the bar for the rest of the team.

    Despite this minor hiccup, we have very fond memories of our stay and are leaving with many wonderful memories. Thank you for this vacation! 😉

    Super séjour dans ce camping ! Nous avons passé de très bonnes vacances et avons particulièrement apprécié l’équipe d’animation. Un grand bravo au directeur, vraiment au top ! Je n’avais encore jamais vu un directeur monter sur scène avec autant d’entrain, de fun et d’énergie ! Ça fait vraiment plaisir à voir et ça contribue énormément à la bonne ambiance du camping.

    L’équipe d’animation était également géniale, dynamique et très sympathique. Un gros coup de cœur pour le mini-club, qui a beaucoup plu aux enfants et où ils ont passé de super moments.

    Le camping est également très bien placé et l’accueil a été au rendez-vous. Merci à toute l’équipe pour ce beau séjour !

    Le seul petit bémol, qui est totalement indépendant de la direction et de l’équipe d’animation, concerne le snack. Nous avons malheureusement trouvé une équipe assez fermée, peu souriante et parfois désagréable. À l’exception de Romy, qui a toujours été souriante, accueillante et de bonne humeur, et qui relevait vraiment le niveau de l’équipe.

    Malgré ce petit hic, nous gardons un très bon souvenir de notre séjour et repartons avec beaucoup de beaux souvenirs. Merci pour ces vacances ! 😉

    We just got back from a 15-day vacation at this campground. Honestly, this is the first time I’ve seen activity leaders so dedicated to their work—and the same goes for the manager and the rest of the staff! A friendly atmosphere, funny shows, a great restaurant, and an awesome kids’ mini-club.
    The beach and bike path are nearby!
    The mobile … home was great—and it even had AC!!! A big thank you to everyone, especially Charly!!
    We’ll definitely be back next summer because we absolutely loved it here.

    Nous venons tout juste de rentrer de 15 jours de vacances dans ce camping. Franchement c’est la première fois que je vois des animateurs autant investi dans ce qu’ils font ainsi que le directeur et le reste du personnel ! Une ambiance conviviale, des spectacles drôles , un bon resto et un super mini club enfants.
    La plage et piste cyclable à proximité !
    Le mobile home était top avec la Clim en prime!!! Un grand merci à tous ainsi qu’à Charly!!
    Nous revenons sans hésitation l’été prochain car c’est un énorme coup de cœur.
