Surroundings



Wander through historic Roseto Capo Spulico
Discover the historic centre of Roseto Capo Spulico and stroll through atmospheric streets full of Italian charm. Visit the Vinèlla degli Innamorati, one of the narrowest alleyways in Europe, admire the Chiesa Madre di San Nicola di Myra and the centuries-old Fontana di San Vitale. Then take a seat at a cosy terrace and taste the famous Ciliegia di Roseto, the juicy cherry for which the village is known.


Visit Castello Federiciano
Just a few minutes' walk from the park is the impressive Castello Federiciano, towering high above the Ionian Sea. This well-preserved medieval castle stands on a cliff and is surrounded by legends about Emperor Frederick II of Swabia. Wander through the historic structure and enjoy panoramic views of the coast. Visit the castle around sunset, when the warm evening sun beautifully illuminates the ancient stones.
Immerse yourself in the Grotta delle Ninfe
About a half-hour drive away is the Grotta delle Ninfe, a remarkable natural hot spring near Cerchiara di Calabria. Here, sulphur-rich spring water at a pleasant temperature of around 30 degrees flows into a natural pool between high rock walls. Since ancient times, this place has been known for its relaxing and healing properties. According to an old legend, the nymph Calypso once lived here, giving the cave an extra mystical atmosphere. Take a refreshing dip, enjoy the peace and let yourself be surrounded by the nature of the Calabrian hinterland. Thanks to its unique combination of wellness, nature and history, this is a special destination for a relaxing day out.
Enjoy Baia Bella and the Ionian coast
Right in front of Festora the Glamping of Baia Bella lies the beautiful Ionian coast, where crystal-clear blue water and a varied coastline invite you to enjoy a relaxing day by the sea. Settle down on the beach, take a refreshing dip or explore the underwater world with a snorkel. Thanks to the clear water, colourful fish and remarkable rock formations are easy to see. Along the coast, you can walk among the pine trees and enjoy magnificent views over the Ionian Sea. On the way, you will pass quiet coves where you can rest for a while or take a refreshing swim. End the day with dinner at one of the restaurants along the coast, while the sun slowly disappears behind the horizon and the sky turns a warm orange.

Great, but I just couldn't find the restrooms—the signs pointed toward the playground, but I couldn't find them. Other than that, it was fantastic.

Disappointing for a first-time experience. The promised amenities weren’t there: the restaurant and grocery store were closed, and the mobile home—supposedly for 6 people—was cramped even for 4. The microwave was way too high. I had to stand on tiptoes to reach a bowl, with all the risk that entails (I’m 163 cm tall); the lights in the living area … were much too low (at head height); and the instructions for defrosting the refrigerator didn’t match the model we had. No trash bags in the aisles despite the designated spots. Shorts are prohibited in the pool, yet there’s no one to enforce the rule (a group of young teens in shorts with their underwear sticking out, and on another day, those same teens were wearing nothing but underwear). It’s true that the pool isn’t supervised, but there’s a camera and someone at the snack bar inside the pool area who could enforce this rule.
On the plus side: the campground is very shaded and quiet.this is a translation, click here for the original
Déception pour une première expérience. Les prestations promises ne sont pas présentes : restaurant et épicerie fermés, mobil home prévu pour 6 personnes est exiguë pour 4. Micro-ondes bien trop haut. Je devais être sur la pointe des pieds pour sortir un bol avec toute la dangerosité que cela implique (je fais 163 cm), lampes dans pièce à vivre bien trop basses (à hauteur de ma tête), la notice du frigo ne correspond pas à celui-ci pour le dégivrage. Pas de sacs poubelle dans les allées malgré les emplacements prévus. Short interdit dans la piscine et personne pour faire respecter le règlement (groupe de jeunes ados en short et slip dessous qui dépasse et un autre jour, ces mêmes jeunes, tout simplement en slip). Effectivement la piscine n'est pas surveillée mais il y a une caméra et une personne au snack à l'intérieur de l'enceinte de la piscine qui pourrait faire respecter ce règlement.
Point positif : camping très ombragé et calme. -

Great! We stayed for a week... all the staff were incredibly friendly, and the mobile homes were very comfortable and clean...We’ll be back because, on top of that, our little dog Lilli was able to walk around in this lovely pine forest and play to her heart’s content on the beautiful deck of our mobile home… See you soon, then… You might forget us, but we won’t forget you…

Campground Upon our arrival, a €150 pre-authorization was placed on our credit card as a security deposit. At the end of our stay, we cleaned the mobile home and left, believing we had left it in good condition.Our mistake was not requesting a joint exit inspection.
To my great surprise, I then discovered that the €150 security deposit had … been deducted, without any photos, signed inventory, or supporting documentation having been sent to me to demonstrate the alleged cleanliness issues.
When I contacted the campground for an explanation, the manager told me I would now have to deal directly with Camping.com. Since then, I have been disputing this deduction and simply asking for evidence to justify it.
I find this situation particularly disappointing and regret the lack of transparency in the handling of this security deposit. Before booking, I therefore advise future guests to be especially vigilant and to always request a final inspection report as well as supporting documentation in the event of a deduction from the security deposit.

Camping à fuite
À notre arrivée, une empreinte bancaire de 150 € a été prise à titre de caution.À la fin de notre séjour, nous avons effectué le ménage et avons quitté le mobil-home en pensant l’avoir laissé dans un état correct.Notre erreur a été de ne pas demander un état des lieux de sortie contradictoire.
À ma grande surprise, j’ai ensuite constaté que les 150 € de caution avaient été prélevés, sans qu’aucune photo, aucun état des lieux signé ni aucun justificatif ne m’ait été transmis pour démontrer les prétendus problèmes de propreté.
Lorsque j’ai contacté le camping pour obtenir des explications, le gérant m’a indiqué qu’il fallait désormais voir directement avec Camping.com.Depuis, je conteste cette retenue et demande simplement des preuves permettant de la justifier.
Je trouve cette situation particulièrement décevante et je regrette le manque de transparence dans la gestion de cette caution.Avant de réserver, je conseille donc aux futurs clients d’être particulièrement vigilants et de demander systématiquement un état des lieux de sortie ainsi que des justificatifs en cas de retenue sur la caution.
