Eurocamps - experiences and recommendations?

[Flopsy145]

I've seen loads of videos on Instagram of Eurocamps and they look a bit too good to be true. I'm very much a look at culture/beach and chill holiday person whereas my DH and kids are very much not and want lots of activities. I feel like some of the camps are great because they have all the stuff for the kids yet still close to nice areas for the odd walk about, beach time or meal out. And they seem pretty affordable.

Are they too good to be true? Does anyone have any recommendations or experiences they could please share?

(Looking for summer 2025)

I may have put a baby pool on ours. Would recommend.

I saw lots of families doing this, great idea!

It was lovely having private outdoor space instead of a small balcony that may or may not get the sun.

We've been doing this for about 14 years and as PP have said, google sites and find other operators. In Spain, Vilanova y la Geltru and Castell Mogri are gorgeous, we did those with Lifestyle Holidays. We've been 6 times to La Sirene in Argeles, mix of Lifestyles, Canvas and the camp itself. La Sirene is amazing and brilliant with little and big kids. We've used Yelloh for La Baume (okayish) Domaine de Colombier (amazing) and La Plage du Dramont (fantastic and going two weeks tomorrow!) - all Fréjus/St Raphael. In northern France we've done Berny-Riviere which is 40 minutes from EuroDisney. Most camps have their own animation/kids clubs and the benefit of so much more room and space can't be underrated.

Amazing thank you @R00tat00tt00t

Has anyone ever been to Playa Joyel in northern Spain or Bella Sardinia in Sardinia? These are the two I'm looking at!
