Der Platz ist sehr heruntergekommen. Wir waren verwundert, und würden nicht nochmal hingehen. Schade, die Lage wäre schön.

So schade!! Dieser Campingplatz hätte so viel Potential. Die Lage und die Umgebung am Luganersee sind sensationell. Aber der Platz ist in den 70'er Jahren stehen geblieben. Die Hygiene und Ausstattung sind grenzwertig. Es wird bereits seit Jahren nicht mehr in den Platz investiert. Wirklich sehr schade. Mit veralteten sanitären Einrichtungen kann ich leben aber die Hygiene und Sauberkeit muss passen!!!!

3 Sterne sind ein Witz. nichts für Wohnmobile an 7 Meter. Die Lage allerdings ist toll. Beim Strom reicht schon ein Wasserkocher um die Sicherung durchknallen zu lassen.

etwas wilder und älter, aber wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt hier. Direkt am See als super Ausgangspunkt. Unser Wohnmobil ist 7,5m lang, da gab es nicht viel Auswahl.

Der Platz wirkt wie aus einem Horrorfilm. Unordenrlich, ungepflegt, enge Stellplätze die zugewuchert sind. Zum See hin ist eine 2m hohe Mauer. Vor der Benutzung dies Spielplatzes empfiehlt sich eine Tetanus-Impfung. Die Sanitäranlagen sind unzumutbar.

Travelling party: Group of friends

Vi ringrazio di cuore per aver trovato questo bellissimo paradiso!!! Innanzitutto il "negativo"... se date molto valore al "glamping" cercate un'altra location... ma se - come me - apprezzate quali sono i "valori interiori" e per i quali cordialità, apertura, ospitalità e la disponibilità è più importante delle "apparenze" - per queste persone, così come per me, qui ci si sente semplicemente "a casa e liberi"... Conclusione: almeno voto 10+ - le possibili 5 stelle sono per questi cari "amici" " e questo posto meraviglioso è davvero troppo poco... per favore, venite a vederlo di persona! Adoro questo posto e le persone qui e sicuramente non sarò qui per l'ultima volta!!! Un grande ringraziamento alle persone che rendono questo posto meraviglioso quello che è!!!

Eigentümlicher Platz wie Anno dazumal!
Etwas chaotisch im Eingangsbereich!
Plätze zwischen Dauercampern ordentlich!
Sanitär alt aber gepflegt, vielleicht etwas wenig Toiletten bei Vollbetrieb!
Direkt am See mit Strand und Promenade in den Ort!
Wenn man das altmodische Camping mag auf alle Fälle zu empfehlen

Travelling party: Seniors

Wir haben den Platz als Zwischenübernachtung im Juni genutzt. Freie Platzwahl. Ziemlich neues, sauberes Sanitärgebäude. Liegt direkt am Luganer See. Kiosk schließt leider schon um 18 Uhr.

Freundlicher Empfang, direkter Seezugang und Restaurants in der Nähe. Für den Luganer See, sehr günstiger Campingplatz
Man muss alle Kategorien bewerten, Kinderfreundlichkeit und Sport können wir nicht bewerten

Travelling party: Couple

CP ist in die Jahre gekommen, Stellplätze wie auch Infrastruktur. Es ist alles sauber und Personal ist super nett und hilfsbereit. Nur eine Bar am Strand und direkt neben der Einfahrt ein Sushi Restaurant. Ponte Tresa ist in 15 Minuten zu Fuss erreichbar und hat meist asiatische Restaurants. Haben dann das Restaurant OKAY gefunden, das sehr gute italienische Küche zu fairen Preisen bietet (unbedingt Tisch reservieren ist fast immer voll). Schöne Radtouren möglich (zB Varese Heilige Berg UNESCO Weltkulturerbe) aber fast keine Radwege und Strassen sind teilweise auch nicht die Besten.

Kein Sportangebot entdeckt und für Kinder hat es einen kleinen Spielplatz. Gut für die Durchreise oder ein paar Tage Halt, fairer Preis und ruhig gelegen (trotz Strasse vor dem CP und Strandpromenade).
