Camping Les Grenettes

Liked: The peace and quiet and the chalet.

Disliked: The security deposit to hire a bike. 200 euros per bike. With 4 of us it was not viable.

Liked: The site and pool

Disliked: We paid a €400 deposit to rent bikes and we’re told the funds would be returned same day. 3 days later and we still don’t have the money and can’t get hold of anyone. We were situated under a low pine tree, was very cold and the ground was very messy.

Liked: Pool nice, bar was OK, but expensive. The band, 'Tracklist' who played on Thursday 11th August were fantastic.

Disliked: Pitches - VERY tight access - we deliberately booked this site as they stated they accepted twin axle caravans, but the pitch was too small and access was tight, certainly not enough room to reverse caravan in, had to slowly manoeuvre with motor mover from roadway. Another caravanner didn't have a mover, so we helped push them (along with 6 others) to get his T/A into his pitch. Pitches sand so once jockey wheel in sand it digs in and won't move. Sand EVERYWHERE! Water - very few taps on the site worked. None near our pitch worked and the drains were blocked also. Toilets & showers - very few, some main washroom buildings were boarded up and small newer temporary looking ones in their place. No seats on toilets and no toilet paper in cubicles, just some outside. No soap provided at sinks. Often had to queue for toilet or showers. Had to pay €125 deposit for 5x wristbands to enter pool - never had that before! Parking - pitches too small to get car on with caravan & awning, so had to park elsewhere, picked up a puncture there. Shop had limited range.

Liked: La proximité de la plage, les équipements de loisirs (piscine, jeux pour enfants), l'amabilité du personnel, la restauration (rapport qualité-prix)

Disliked: Trop d'animations bruyantes en soirée, le sol de l'emplacement (trop sableux et poussiéreux), les blocs sanitaires pas assez dimensionnés

Liked: Ile De-Re is a beautiful Island, do not be put off travelling to this Island, the cycling is great.

Disliked: The site we were allocated was just a sandy square with no grass. Our problem began on Thursday 9th June, we were kept awake until around 2am as there was a 40th Birthday party being held on site in a hall and outside near the restaurant. We thought this unusual as most sites do not allow music after midnight but decided it must be a one off. Then on Saturday 11th June there were two parties one being held, one next to the restaurant and one behind the swimming pool in a hall. As we were camping in a tent we were unable to sleep so at 12.30am we got up and went for a walk to see what was happening. It seemed like there was a compere who had everyone cheering and shouting in the party (near the restaurant) and this went on until near 2am. As we walked further around the site we then heard and saw another party in in a hall to the rear of the swimming pool with everyone shouting until 5.30am when some even walked past our tent talking extremely loudly. The situation was unbelievably hellish as we were unable to sleep for most of the night and only snatching a few hours at dawn, had we of been in a camper van we would have left the site. We complained to the receptionist later that morning who said that we needed to put this into writing, we did and have not received a reply. We can’t express how exhausted we were all day. There should be a responsible person/contact/security on site who people can contact in a situation like this when out of hours. We decided not to stay any longer and packed up and left that morning, exhausted and vowing never to return. We feel that this should not be happening on a campsite where most people usually retire to bed early. We spoke to another tourist on leaving the campsite and he told us they often have a lot of Corporate Events that go on late.
