Camping Resort La Baume La Palmeraie

We had a nice stay on the campingsite in our mobile home Phoenix 3. The swimmingpool was very nice but there was not enough sun protection at te swimmingpool. Only a small net for some 50 beds. The market on the campingsite is very small but there is a large Lidl market within 5 minutes driving. The activities for kids and the evening show should be spoken in english and not only in the French language.

We booked direct and had the acacia accommodation near to the bottom pool. All in all, this is a very average campsite. The sports facilities are pretty decent, the pool areas are OK although no parasols which was frustrating. The acacia chalet is a great layout and the planting throughout the site was really lovely and it was nice and peaceful being towards the end of the busy season. Its just let down by ropey entertainment and both pool and bar areas need some investment. They felt quite run down and really lacking character. The toilets were absolutely awful, I nearly turned around and went home when we first arrived and I used the toilet at the top pool with the awful smell and cleanliness and taps hanging off. Chairs at the bar were falling to bits and overall it just gave the impression of a run down place. Shame really but wouldnt recommend to others. Been to much nicer campsites with more going on and better investment in the bar and entertainment areas.

Great camping in a beautiful area where everything is present to make your stay unforgettable. We will certainly go back!

I’ve given this place one Star principally because Eurocamp are incredibly misleading in their descriptions. On their website, you think you are booking a five star holiday camp resort. When in actual fact you were booking a static home on a three star resort. When you get here their website aside, you see this. All of the Statics come under a different name to La Baume and the tent and motorhome area falls under the name that you were sold. The caravans are some of the smallest I’ve ever stayed in . Very tired and very dirty. You are also not given a number of the features potentially shown on the website. For accommodation this is one of the worst I’ve ever stayed in having staying in various places in France and in the UK. It was that bad that we left a bit earlier and if we could’ve found something at a reasonable price, we would’ve moved. The day after we arrived, we were even looking for new flights back to the UK. The facilities are actually okay. The pools the kids will enjoy playing in. However, you will need to get up at about four in the morning to secure a sunbed. And the sunbeds are very banged in. The bars and restaurant are good and the staff on these are really good. It has an on-site supermarket which seems to have a lot of stuff. And as long as you have a car, you can drive out to other places and restaurants and supermarkets. However, the area does get heavy traffic. We often found driving into nearby Fréjus or Saint Rafael could take 10 to 15 minutes later on in the evening or at peak times 45 minutes. The site is huge and it would take you 20 minutes to walk from one end to the other. As such, you do get a lot of kids on scooters flying around everywhere, not conscious of cars. I appreciate this is a family place, but it was carnage at times. my biggest issue is the cleanliness and the massive deception by Euro camp . Don’t charge five star prices or make five star claims and expect people to put up with it. Call three lower the price and it would be what it would be. on another note if you were coming to camp in attendant or your own motorhome or caravan and I think this would be a relatively good result because of the facilities
