  • Five minutes’ drive to Costa Brava Parc Aventura; Girona 40 minutes
  • Entertainment and activities; restaurant and bars; massage cabin
Costa Brava, here you come – and if you’re clever, you’ll nab a pitch at Camping Vall d’Or, the only campsite overlooking the sandy beach at Platja d’Aro. This family-friendly spot has been welcoming guests for more than 50 years, so they must be doing something right. So what is it that they’re doing so well? Well, for starters there’s an enthusiastic team at reception ready to help you out in any way possible, and an eco-market with breakfast goodies, foodie treats and local produce for sale (plus a delivery service right to your pitch). You can catch the rays with a glass of something chilled at one of the terrace bars – and attend themed events and DJ sessions after nightfall – or dine on tapas and seafood paella in the restaurant. There’s a games area and organised sporty stuff to keep the kids entertained, while you have a go at Zumba or Pilates on the beach. And if you feel that you need a pamper after running around in the sun, book a treatment at the massage cabin. If the spectacular beachfront setting and all those facilities are not enough to convince you about Camping Vall d’Or, you may like to know that Port d’Aro marina is five minutes’ walk away for leisurely strolls around the yachts. If you want to up the night-time tempo a bit, Ocine Platja d’Aro mall (10 minutes’ walk) has a cinema, bowling alley and nightclub.

Front Beach electric optional earth pitch

Liked: We loved the beachfront plot. We loved the relaxed and peaceful atmosphere at the campsite. We were very happy that we could bring our dogs at no extra charge. Generally speaking this is a cool, chilled, clean campsite, in a fabulous location. There were alot of international people, which we also enjoyed. We will definitely stay there again. The staff were very friendly and helpful.

Disliked: Nada

Liked: Me gustó porque estaba enfrente de la playa,te levantabas y ya te dabas un baño y playa de Aro para mí es lo más

Disliked: Lo que no me gustó que el camping es todo tierra nos tocó una parcela en la calle general y eso era una locura el polvo y luego el tema de duchas y limpieza fatal había como una especie de campamento para los niños que venían de afuera y era una locura pillar una ducha y para ir al baño más de lo más y luego todo muy sucio,yo creo porque o los chavales eran muy dejados o faltaba gente de limpieza por tanto personal alojado

Electric optional earth pitch (XXL)

Liked: Close proximity to beach & town

Disliked: It seems like our booking for an xxl pitch was lost. We had a temporary pitch for 1 night until we met the manager the next day. (He sorted us a pitch to our satisfaction). No great off road cycling routes.

Electric optional earth pitch (XL)

Liked: La entrada a la playa desde el camping

Disliked: El camping bien, el personal y la organización nefasto. Llegamos y nos atienden desganados. Después nos llevan hasta la parcela que habíamos alquilado y resulta que estaba ocupada por otras personas que se veía que llevaban días allí. Al rato, encuentran otra parcela con la misma desgana donde nos hemos ubicado, por suerte, una sola noche, ya que al lado de las pistas deportivas era muy ruidosa. Para colmo, al atendernos NO nos dijeron que sólo se puede entrar el coche al camping hasta las 00:00 así que al llegar más tarde de esta hora, el hombre que estaba en la puerta con aires de superioridad y de malas maneras nos dijo que no podíamos entrar y tuvimos que dejar el coche en un parking de fuera en lugar de en la parcela que habíamos pagado ( de hecho, ni era esa). Como punto positivo los baños están muy limpios y las duchas muy bien, la playa a primera linea con acceso mediante pulseras. Ya os digo, el camping está bien pero le falla el personal.

Local attractions

There’s lots to keep active families occupied around Platja d’Aro. There are a couple of tennis clubs within 10 minutes’ walk, Skatepark Platja d’Aro (15 minutes) for skateboarders, and rope courses or zipwires at Costa Brava Parc Aventura Platja d’Aro (five minutes’ drive). Teach the kids the basics of golf at Pitch and Putt Mas Torrellas (10 minutes) or while away the afternoon on the thrill rides at Pp’s Park Platja d’Aro (15 minutes’ walk). To see a little more of the region, rent a motorboat from the marina (five minutes) to explore beaches and hidden coves up and down the Mediterranean coastline. Should you feel the need to stir from beachfront Platja d’Aro altogether, head to historic Girona (40 minutes’ drive) to explore the labyrinthine El Call quarter, walk the ramparts for views of the cathedral and spot the city's Game of Thrones locations. Alternatively, spend the day in Barcelona (an hour and 15 minutes) to watch the street theatre on Las Ramblas, graze your way around the tapas bars of La Boqueria food market and tour Antoni Gaudí’s extraordinary Sagrada Família cathedral.
