Camping Village Bocche D'Albegna

We pitched our tent just 30 feet from the ocean, which couldn't have been better. The campsite was friendly and the cheapest we found nearby. Its beach area with umbrellas was really nice and not crowded when we visited in July. The Wi-Fi didn't work for us. If you're in a tent, try not to pitch it under one of the lights so it'll actually get dark. The bathroom had every style of toilet, the showers were hot, and the little store had a good range of reasonably priced food.

Everything we needed was here, with loads of amenities, and the place was clean and peaceful right on the beachfront. It was easy to find and access, and the staff were very friendly and accommodating. I really loved staying here.

We were told to come and look for a pitch in person, even though we had around 2,500 km to travel. Since we couldn't stay for a full week, they wouldn't reserve anything for us during a very busy period, when they knew we were unlikely to find even a small space for our tent. That policy was ridiculous and left us feeling completely let down. They don't seem to respect customers who aren't from nearby.

With a small child, the loud dance music at night made it impossible to get him to sleep. Nobody seemed to be near the music, so I couldn't tell who it was meant for. They could have warned us in advance, and at least played something decent.
