We stayed for two weeks in the summer (July)—our first time doing this type of holiday, and overall, it was a great experience.
Getting There: We flew into Barcelona Airport and pre-booked a transfer through Sun Transfers at a cost of €180 for a 40-minute journey. In hindsight, we realized there’s a bus that stops right outside the campsite, which would have been a fraction of the cost—though a bit slower.
Arrival and Accommodation: On arrival, we were warmly welcomed by reception staff and given a map to our 3-bedroom Azure caravan. As expected, the caravan was compact but perfectly adequate for our needs. We were lucky to be located in a quiet area and had a nice veranda equipped with a table, chairs, bench seating, a couple of loungers, and a BBQ (which we didn’t use). The caravan was clean, and the beds were comfortable.
Pool and Facilities: The pool area was a highlight—large, clean, and well-maintained. There’s a section for kids with a water bucket and small slide, and a larger pool with slides, a waterfall, and a jacuzzi. Loungers were available, though limited in number. The pool opens at 10am, and there was always a queue, but we were fine laying our towels on the grass. Lifeguards were attentive, and food wasn’t allowed by the pool, which helped keep things clean. Drinks (including water) were allowed, and there’s a pool bar just outside that also serves pizza and snacks.
Entertainment: There were some children’s activities during the day, but they were mostly in Spanish, which made participation a bit harder. Evening entertainment took place near the pool bar—space was limited, so we often just relaxed on our veranda and enjoyed the music from a distance with a drink in hand. Shops and Restaurants: The on-site mini supermarket had most essentials, albeit at slightly higher prices. There’s also a restaurant and bar on site—we had drinks there but didn’t dine. For more affordable options, there’s a nearby supermarket out the back gate (near the school) and a smaller shop directly across from the main entrance.
Access and Transport: As a Eurocamp guest, you’re given a bracelet for site access. There’s a back gate you can swipe open, which provides a quicker walking route into Sitges. The bus stop at the front of the campsite offers services to Sitges and Barcelona. However, it’s a fixed price fare all the way to Barcelona, so if you’re just going into Sitges, it’s cheaper to use the back exit and catch the local bus near the school.
