The hotel offers amenities for your comfortable stay and unforgettable experiences

Fantastic Kids' Activities

I was thoroughly impressed with the range of activities available for kids. Throughout our stay, my children were always engaged in various programs, from daily games to the fantastic mini water park. They especially loved the bungee trampoline and the nightly kids' disco, which kept them entertained while I enjoyed some relaxing time nearby. The facilities provided were great, truly a family-friendly environment! Date: 2024-05-15.

Delicious Dining Options

The dining experience at the campsite was wonderfully diverse. We particularly enjoyed the varied offerings at the restaurants, especially the Oliva Grill, which served mouthwatering dishes in a beautiful setting. Each meal was satisfying and reasonably priced compared to what you'd find at home. Plus, there's a lovely selection of local foods available in the supermarket, which made our meals even better!

Relaxing Pool Areas

We had a great time by the pools! The family pool was active and fun for everyone, while the saltwater pool offered a more relaxing vibe. Although it could get busy, we always managed to find a spot to unwind. There were plenty of loungers, and I loved bringing my own chair to the beach when we wanted to spread out. It was the perfect way to spend our hot summer days! Date: 2024-06-20.

Comfortable Accommodations

We opted for a mobile home which exceeded our expectations! It was spacious, clean, and equipped with everything we needed, including two bathrooms which were a lifesaver for our family. The proximity to the amenities made it easy to enjoy our stay without long commutes, allowing us more quality time together. I couldn't have asked for a better setup for our holiday!

The camping resort has a lot of potential, with clean pitches and well-maintained facilities. However, the noise from parties in the night made it difficult to sleep, and the amenities like the pools and restaurants were not all operational during my stay. Although my son enjoyed some aspects of the resort, overall, it feels like there are better options out there.

The pitches were clean but not necessarily great for larger families; the caravan had some design flaws that impacted our comfort.

Dining options were limited, with only a few restaurants open and one offering a questionable exchange rate, making meals feel overpriced.

Facilities

The facilities were subpar; with only a few pools available, it was overcrowded, and many activities were too limited for the number of guests.

We had a wonderful family vacation at the camping site that felt like a little village. The facilities were fantastic and perfect for our daughter, with lots of activities and pools. The cleanliness and organization of the place stood out, and we loved the pet-friendly atmosphere. However, I found the rocky beaches not to my personal taste, but they were still well-kept. Overall, it was a highly enjoyable experience that offered great value for money.

Our stay in Maro village was simply delightful! The location is perfect for families with kids, surrounded by activities and a serene atmosphere. The mobile homes were clean and cozy, and laced with wonderful surprises upon arrival. However, the prices during peak season can be steep, but we found it worth every penny after the first night.

Lanterna Premium Camping has its ups and downs. On the plus side, the area offers a variety of facilities and activities for families. However, my experience was marred by overcrowding, poor pitch allocation, and limited access to basic necessities like fresh food. Overall, I was very disappointed and won't be returning.

The campsite has beautiful clean surroundings and outstanding facilities for families, including pools and activities that keep everyone entertained. However, the pricing feels exorbitant for the value received, and the check-in process was rather overwhelming and stressful. It's clear that while there's enjoyment to be had, the added costs can leave a sour taste.
