What campers are saying
Summarized by AI
The campsite scores with its unbeatable location right behind the dunes and the brilliant water park, which is a real hit with families. Anyone coming here will enjoy the relaxed atmosphere in the pine forest and direct access to the beach. Good to know for the trip: Anyone heading here should be prepared for slightly older and not always perfectly clean sanitary facilities.

Pros
I was looking for a well-kept 5-star campsite, but we ended up at an overcrowded camp populated 90% by Spaniards who have no respect for space, noise, or quiet. Neither the pitches nor the sanitary facilities are well-maintained. The stars are merely due to the recreational infrastructures. Very disappointed, avoid if you are looking for peace and cleanliness. Location/Accommodation: Nothing. Apart from a limited choice of pitches.
Cons
Location/Accommodation: Noise, without regard for the guests, nonexistent security for upholding the standards.

Pros
We really enjoyed the location, right by the Atlantic coast; the campsite is very well maintained and beautifully landscaped. Pitch/Rental accommodation: The pitch was large, relatively flat, and shady.
Cons
The cleanliness of the toilets in the sanitary facilities was not always impeccable. Due to the large number of mobile homes, we felt a bit of the camping vibe was missing. In the off-season, only 1 restaurant was partially open, which was not clearly indicated at the time of booking. Pitch/Rental accommodation: Most pitches are located between mobile homes, leaving you with walls right in front of you on two sides. Not very pleasant.

Hello, it's a shame that the paddle initiation was canceled on Thursday without any notice (4 people), and the sanitary facilities were not very clean for a 5-star campsite that only closes the following week...!

Pros
It's unfortunate that the swimming pool only opens at 10:30 AM and closes at 6 PM even in low season. The location and rental accommodations benefit from the shade of trees and the spaciousness of the site.
Cons
The store could also be open in the afternoon, like in other nearby campsites.

Pros
The nice weather Location/Rental Accommodation: Very quiet and very comfortable
Cons
Location/Rental Accommodation: I requested the intervention of a technician Sunday afternoon because the drains of the mobile home were blocked. The technician came, looked behind the mobile home but did not check inside. There was water rising from the toilets, the shower tray, the sink, and the basin. He left without offering us any solution. It was our last night and we were forced to use the communal restrooms.

Pros
The pools, the proximity to the ocean, the kindness of the staff, the comfort of the accommodation. Location/Rental accommodation: Welcome, shade, proximity to food (supermarket, restaurant), and the markets in the neighboring towns.
Cons
The campsite is very extensive and everything is far apart. A second entrance to the aquatic area would be beneficial. Location/Rental accommodation: The mattresses are wide and comfortable, but it is complicated to move around in the rooms. There is a lack of storage in the kitchen, and there are not enough plates to manage a dishwasher smartly. The refrigerator door does not open from the correct side.

Sights and activities
The campsite rents out bicycles for exploring the wooded coastal landscape of the region. The villages of Messanges, Vieux-Boucau les Bains and Moliets-et-Maa are close by. All of them have cosy cafés and traditional weekly markets. The constant waves of the Atlantic make the region particularly popular with surfers. This is why there are numerous surf schools in the coastal towns. Professional instructors teach beginners the basics of the sport in courses and refine the technique of advanced surfers.
