Campingplatz Sonnenstrand

We booked one night's stay with the camper, and the view of the Rhine was delightful – stunning. The friendly lady at the reception made it all the better, and the costs were not expensive. However... the sanitary facilities are very basic and too limited for all the recreation spots. Additionally, there are small restroom areas and showers for a fee, and there are far too few of them. There is not enough greenery/trees. Tip: ask for a little more for the pitch and upgrade the campsite to a modern standard. 💪🏿

The campsite is located near Bacharach and is essentially suitable for an overnight stop – we stayed there for one night on our way back. The reception was friendly and we received a nice spot by the water. Unfortunately, there were issues with the power supply. At first, we looked for the fault on our end. When we inquired about a loan cable at the reception, we were told that none were available. Only after about two hours and testing together with neighbors did we find out that the fuse at our site had blown. We would have appreciated help much sooner. The washrooms desperately need cleaning as well. The food was tasty, but the portions were very small. Overall, despite the good location, a negative impression prevails. PS: Power outages occurred multiple times.

We were lucky to get a spot right in the front row overlooking the Rhine (all inclusive). We spent three lovely days there with nice neighbors. One word to dog owners, when you arrive with the camper and get out with the dog, it cannot be that you let the dog do its business where others are just having breakfast. What kind of people are these? I have been traveling with the camper for 20 years, things have really changed.

We had made a reservation in advance and it was stated that we could arrive until 9 PM. Unfortunately, we were caught in traffic and tried several times to call to let them know we would be about 15 minutes late, but only got the answering machine. Upon arrival, we were told that everything was fully booked, and no one wanted to acknowledge our email that we had received, even when I showed it to them. We were then graciously allowed to stay on the side in the aisle next to the disposal area at the pitch for 12 euros a night. We find this treatment of paying guests outrageous, especially since there were plenty of spots available in the campsite, but those were of course preferred for others staying more than 4 days. If I were to do something like this, I would at least communicate it openly, no problem. But this behavior is more than cheeky.

Good location, friendly staff, close to the romantic town of Bacharach

a well-maintained site with a somewhat aging washhouse, but always clean. Disturbance from train and road due to the direct location by the Rhine is relatively low. Right on the beautiful Rhine cycle path and a two-minute walk to Bacharach with good restaurants.

Positive. Location by the Rhine and close to Bacharach Negative: Parking space design, small parking spaces

Very delicious extensive cuisine
