Villaggio Camping La Scogliera

Unfriendly reception, a locked peacock that can hardly turn in its pen, disgusting sanitary facilities ... everything is totally neglected ... in an undoubtedly dreamlike spot in the front row, only someone who brings their own sanitary and kitchen can feel comfortable ....

Simple place. As of the end of May 2022, some work is still ongoing for the upcoming high season. Normal reception. The bartender speaks fluent German. Shop not yet open. Sanitary facilities are typical for the country. But you can practically camp in the front row right on the beach.

It is not easy to find out which places are open during the winter months. This place also avoids a clear statement on its homepage and encrypts its opening hours through its price list. At check-in, they demanded to hold my ID card as a deposit, which I of course refused. It took some discussion before 100 EUR in cash were accepted as a deposit. For this, I take off a few stars. The site is located in a bay protected by the steep coast. We could choose a pitch in the first row towards the beach, occupied by only about a dozen campers, with a beautiful view of the sea and Stromboli. We also give 5 points for this - but only for this. Good free Wi-Fi. Restaurant and mini-market were closed. The sanitary facilities are of a very old and very simple style. Whoever is looking for a rarely beautiful pitch right on the beach in the distant off-season and needs (almost) nothing else - is in the right place here.

Wow :) The charming stretch of beach deserves nothing less than 5 stars. We were there during the last two weeks of September and had the campsite practically to ourselves. The little sweet shop had already closed, just like the restaurant. However, despite the gaping emptiness on the shelves, you can still get the essentials if you don't have too high expectations. You shouldn't be too finicky about the toilets and showers :) If you are a somewhat experienced and battle-hardened camper, you'll manage just fine there. (Cold showers, no toilet seats, and unfortunately no cleaning staff in action.) It's just a small old campsite that has seen better days. Nevertheless, I would definitely go back next year. I spent one of my most beautiful vacations there. Crystal clear water, rocky beach, high cliffs, and the most beautiful sunsets I've ever seen.
