Liked: The beach shed was clean and not hot in the mornings. Beach was clean.

Disliked: You have to rent a vehicle, despite the fact that the camping place was offering transport to the key ports, at the time when I was travelling it was not enough. I ended up cutting my travel plans short or having to pay 8 euros for a cab. Not sure this is a place for a single female traveler, however I did not feel insecure.

Liked: Staff are very friendly. Very good ahving the free shuttle bus to take you to Naoussa and Paraikia as it is a little way away from these, although we did walk home from Naoussa one day as it is quite a nice walk along the coast. Toilets and showers are always clean. Nice beach. Free wifi.

Disliked: Showers were only hot i nthe afternoons but was fine as long as you didnt ahve one early morning or late night.

Liked: Great place ! The camping is located 100 meters from stunning Santa Maria Beach. Nice bar and restaurant on the beach to hang out. When north wind blows its very windy, then swimming pool is better option. Self service restaurant - good food and value. Bus service to Naussa and Paroikia is good and reliable always on time. Bathrooms and toilets are clean but need some modernization soon. Wooden cabins are brand new - clean, nice - great.

Disliked: nothing particulary

Liked: swimming pool was nice and big and close to the beach but the camping village itself is a good 30 mins from the main town

Disliked: Some of the staff were a little rude, and they charge you extra even after you've paid the deposit you have to pay it again...

Liked: It was in a fantastic location on the beach and was absolutely fantastic value for money. We had a private triple ensuite, fully air conditioned, balcony area, it was cleaned every day, breakfast was included and the staff could not have been more helpful. There was also a lovely restaurant on the beach that served delicious food and was fantastic value for money.

Disliked: Absolutely nothing.

Liked: It was a great place to chill out by the pool or on the beach. The beach huts were great and I loved the fact there was a fly screen on the window for night time.

Disliked: There wasnt alot to do in the immediate area. If you wanted to go out drinking you had to go to another town and the buses werent regular.

Liked: Everything was easy to find and not too far apart. I stayed in a beach hut by myself which was great fun. It had plug sockets, a little cuboard for your things, chair and table, clean bed and bedding and the hut itself was very clean. I think they were newly build. The only thing that it didn't have was air con, but with the 2 windows open it was ok. All in all i had a great time. The beach was beautiful:)

Disliked: The only thing were the toilets. I'm not keen on the hole in the ground:(

Liked: The beach huts were extremely clean and definately enough room for living out of your rucksack. The pool was lovely and there were plenty of activities at the beach if you have extra cash. The mini market was also fairly well stocked and there was also a self service place.However there was nothing to do at night time. The bars and reastaurant weren't open. They do however provide a free bus to the next town Naoussa. Overall you get a decent place to sleep for a very good price, its just a shame there's no night life or opportunity to meet other people.

Liked: So close to the most perfect beach. The beach bar is amazing during the afternoons and so is the pool bar. Many people to meet and there is constantly a good vibe. I only wish there was more of a night life at the beach bar, but otherwise it was one of the best holidays i've been on!

Liked: Not much on offer at the tiny beach nearby, what is on offer is expensive. Although bus connections were alright to the capital. The facilities were all there, as in bar, resturant, shop, but it wasnt cheap at any of them, in fact it was very expensive at the bar and shop (2 euro ice cream, 4 euro bottle of beer). The showers weren't the cleanest, and the screaming loud saturday night disco, playing awful music, ment you were up til 4 am regardless of if you wanted to be or not. On check out, which had just one staff member meaning it took 45 minutes, causing people to be late for boat connections, the staff member tried to rip each and everyone off, showing great consistency in trying to overcharge us all for our stay! Couldnt really recommended this place, if you dont care about anything other than getting wasted and meeting people, spring break style, you'll be fine, but it is vastly visited by Greeks and Italians so English speakers beware. There must be better spots elsewhere on the island, try there...
