The pool areas very dangerous for smaller kids, there was a lot of teenagers running around and jumping into the water all the time. The life guards didn't do anything about it. My daughter got kicked couples of times in the face. The receptionist at the spa very rude, insisting that in France should only french be used and insulting people in front of clients. If people that don't speak French are not welcome then this should clearly stay at the websites instead of insulting foreigners.

Pitch size didn’t meet expectations. Poor toilet and bath facilities. One building wasn’t even open according to the opening hours written on the door. But why even close it. And one morning no toilets in any of the buildings were able to flush.

I used to come to this campsite 25 years ago and it is the same as I remembered just with a lot more slides and better accommodation. We enjoyed so much we have already booked for next year on the same week. I feel that the bar/restaurant wasn’t open long enough, maybe consider opening in the mornings with croissants and coffees? As were we’re going off site every morning to get these, and opening earlier for evening meals maybe around 5pm? The staff were amazing!!!… also maybe consider hire out mobile AC units this would get you more revenue and also make the stay comfortable in the extreme heats.

This looked like a great place for our family which included young children and a baby parents and grandparents to all enjoy a week together in what is described as a relaxing environment. The reality was very different, it was overcrowded even at the time of year being out of season the pool area is very tight for space and the atmosphere was poor because most of the people were unpleasant. It’s also a bit of a surprise to see security guards in stab proof vests patrolling around the pool, that in itself tells its own storey of how the place felt. I may have misunderstood the description on the booking site so thats down to me but this place is just too manic for my taste and all the adults were in constant alert because you didn’t feel the children were entirely safe. A big group of people fighting with themselves probably didn’t help the situation much either. In my opinion there is very little space around the pools and this makes it extremely hard to relax when people are constantly running about within millimetres of you.

The green areas—grass, bushes, and foliage—need tidying up and cleaning. More privacy for the mobile homes where we stayed.

Book your vacation at a campsite with direct beach access

The seaside is the ultimate place to relax, where you can alternate between napping on a towel spread out on the white sand, sunbathing, and enjoying your campsite right by the water. It’s perfect for mental relaxation, but also for staying active through swimming and energetic beach games. Additional benefits of a coastal vacation: in addition to proudly showing off a flawless tan, you’ll be able to enjoy the incredible variety of water sports available—from surfing and water skiing to paddleboarding or even scuba diving with a club—all while taking care of yourself.

A campsite near the ocean with a pool

The Ciela Village campsites near the sea also feature a swimming pool. This is sure to delight water sports enthusiasts, who will be spoiled for choice between the sea and the pool!

Since France’s beaches are often very crowded during the summer season, we recommend visiting them in the morning or evening. During the day, take advantage of the campsite’s pool to swim laps, take a nap in the sun, or play in the water!

Our campsite in Argelès-sur-Mer features an indoor pool. This little extra is a real plus on rainy, windy, or chilly days. You won’t have to worry about your vacation days being ruined or your kids getting bored cooped up in the mobile home! The whole family can enjoy the indoor pool while waiting for the weather to clear up! If you can’t find what you’re looking for by the sea, have you considered a campsite by a lake?
