Camping Ca'Savio in Cavallino

The cabins were old and poorly maintained, with rusted fixtures, cracked walls, and peeling paint...

On the whole we had a nice time. There were some things that could have made it better! We stayed in an ecolodge which was very hot and got eaten alive by mosquitoes! We couldn’t escape the mosquitoes in the early evening because it was too hot in the tent. As we had to leave doors open in the evening due to the heat it meant we also got bitten over night. Fans and mosquitoes nets should have been provided. The wooden table and chairs were quite uncomfortable and there was nowhere comfortable to sit. The facilities were fine, there was a cleaner constantly there. Plenty of showers, never a queue which have experienced at other sites. We chose the site due to the eco and nature claims but was disappointed. There weren’t any nature areas (only saw a few butterflies! Wonder if this is due to them spraying the mosquitoes!) but the trees in the site were pleasant. The eco lab was good but just a 30 min experience. The shop was well stocked but expensive. We had come by public transport so the Lidl was a long hot walk (or a pricey bus ride) The staff in the reception were generally lovely and helpful. However the staff at the bike hire were extremely rude to us and very unfriendly when we wanted to hire some bikes. The pools were clean but a little boring for my older children and often very very busy. The beach was nice but again busy and expensive to hire a parasol. We did experience jelly fish stings in the sea too. Due to the mosquitos and also the difficulty and cost of reaching the town and other attractions by public transport we wouldn’t return.

Positive - lots of green, well managed, friendly staff (cafeteria!), good location Negative - very, very bad state of common toilets / showers. Avoid nordic tents - noisy, badly maintained
