How to choose a campsite
When choosing a campsite for you, think about your individual preferences and expectations from this place. Consider the next aspects:
- The daily price of a campsite. If your aim is just to sleep overnight and early morning drive away for surfing, you may be happy with cheap small campsites that are a type of parking lot. If you are a person who likes to have long bbq evenings, having a lazy long morning at the shadow, you may prefer big campsites with plenty of trees, pool and bar.
- Check-in time or closing time of the reception. Often small campsites and type of parking lot limit their check-in time to 19h or 20h.
- If there is WC on the facilities. Some small RV parkings do not provide the WC in the facilities, thus do not accept tents and campers without WC.
- If you camp with a tent: check if the campsite accepts tents. Some small campsites type of parking lot do not accept tents.
- Think about your dinner in advance. Some campsites are located in the forests and natural parks where is not easy to find open supermarkets and restaurants within walking distance.
- Latest comments/evaluations of guests: know what to expect. Consider that in the summer is normal to have slightly more bad comments due to the bigger concentration of the tourists.
- The most silent places in the campsite are the corners of a campsite, far away from the WC facilities.
