Nous avons passé 10 jrs super dans un Mobil home de vacan select. Au passage Mobil home sale à notre arrivée. Le camping est un grand village où l'on trouve de tout :pain poisson supermarket. Mais on ne se retrouve pas les uns sur les autres. La piscine est magnifique les minis plages aussi. Super... vacances sauf qu il ne faut surtout pas avoir un Mobil home proche des mobils homes des saisonniers. Ces personnes font la fiesta tard avec bcp d alcool et musique. Ils s en foutent des touristes. Tous les soirs on a du leur dire de faire moins fort mais jamais ils n ont écouté.

We are staying in Valkanela camping, every night young people gather together next to the supermarket. The young people told us that the security FROM THE CAMPING ITSELF advised them to gather behind the fence, then the security can't do anything. What kind of camping is this???

Just spent a week at Valkanela Campsite - due to our own mistake, we had to spend first night in a mobile home (instead of our tent-caravan - we forgot the keys :\), and we found it really difficult to get to the point where we could spend the night there. The staff was really un-cooperative, unwilling... to help us out completely. Totally not what we would expect from a touristic destination. Not only they weren't willing to ring their co-worker in another reception (yes, there are two and there were just few minutes till they close and they sent me there running, cuz they are "not suppose to call to the other reception"). Also the customer care that we rang on our way there (when we realised that we're going to be really late due to heavy traffic), told us different (lower) price for a mobile home rent than we actually had to pay for next morning. And the price was 204€ for one night for the period between 10PM to 7AM 🙄. 2 adults and a 2 year old child. Also they wouldn't let us park our tent-caravan inside for that night and when I wanted to pay for one extra night for the pitch we had reserved 3 months in advance, they said it was impossible, because we need to check out from mobile home first and then check in for the campsite - and only then we can park our tent-caravan on our reserved pitch🤦
Not to mention overpriced food and unfriendly staff in a beach burger bar - our child has food allergies and they wouldn't give us correct information about allergens (!!!) - we had to inquire on our own (they said only potatoes are fryed in that oil, so we ordered french fries for a child. Double checked if they are sure and they said yes. We asked again if this same oil is used for chicken burger patty (child has egg and wheat allergy so it was hazardous and unacceptable to get him that) and they confirmed. Really?!? And when we cancelled that order, the cook would rudely say: "the idiots must be kidding me".) 😲
We are not comming back and would not recommend it if you want to feel welcome, surrounded with friendly people, pay fair price for what you get and spend a vacation without stress.
P.s. the friendliest person in the whole campsite was a cleaning lady (i guess she has some Asian roots) from sanitary block 1, that was really helpful, kind and hardworking!

Things displayed on the website like pool seats or entertainment, table tennis etc. have to be payed for extra and are pretty expensive.
4 out of 8 nights of our stay were ruined by incredibly loud music up until 4am from neighboring sites and parties. Latrines were not very clean and the showers were... either too hot or too cold and very hard to adjust.

This place is MASSIVE!! It’s well run, lovely staff, immaculate toilets and showers and so much to do- inflatables in the sea, pedalled, trampolines, restaurants, pools, entertainment .
But ... it’s so so noisy! The music from the bar (although it’s good!) goes til midnight and people shout until... much later.

I think this is perfect if you have teenagers and like big, fun campsites which have a lot going on. We prefer simpler and quieter camping so are leaving after one night. We may come back when our girls are teenagers!
