Camping l'Ocean

Lack of English speaking for a campsite that advertises in English and attracts english speaking guests. Large groups of teenagers. Noise very late into the night. Poor restaurant hours. We stayed, camping, for two weeks in Aug 2023. We picked this campsite for its easy access to the beach and great facilities. Yes the beach is 15 mins walk. Yes the pool complex is amazing. Yes the shop is great and well stocked. We had requested a large pitch (as we have a big tent) we drove to find our pitch, when we found it, it wasn't large at all, and had a deep gully right down the middle. So we drove back to reception and asked for a big pitch. After some 15 mins of standing there with zero communication we were told a new pitch number, and we drove to that, it was a bigger pitch. THE PITCH was very hard and very stony. Luckily we had three sort of pegs, plastic V pegs, aluimimum hard ground pins and 200mm concrete bolts with a cordless impact driver. The concrete bolts were the only ones we could get right into the floor and on some cases even they wouldn't go into the ground. The whole top surface was like big type 1 mot stones, barely any grass at all. We spent our whole stay wearing shoes as it was impossible to walk on the pitch or in our tent barefoot. The pitch was open to the roadway as both ends and one side had bushes that separated it from a pathway. This made the pitch quite noisy with vehicle and foot traffic. THE BINS ARE MILES AWAY, if you want to dispose of your rubbish, on this site, it's VERY likely your have a very long walk, or bike ride, or drive. There are very few bin areas. We have a portable toilet and as far as I could find there are only one ELSAN point, so bad luck if your on the other side if the site as its a very big site. No there isn't any toilet paper, often there wasn't hand soap. Yes the taps are infuriating, with sensors that often don't work, or the tap only runs while your hand is swiping the sensor. Yes they do have the same sensors in the washing up areas which is pathetic and a joke to do your washing up with. No the toilets are not cleaned or checked regularly Depsite language barrier the staff at the kids club were great with our daughter. My issue with the site is its lack of spoken English, yes I know we are in France and French is spoken, but its NEVER been to a site where other languages are not somehow catered for. No dutch, No German, no English. The site does have many non French guests staying. The night time animation entertainment is all in French, announcements over the PA are all in French, the safety instructions before the foam party are all in French. The quiz that was played in the bar area was all in French. If you goto any noticeboard to see what activities are on , it's all in French, look on the door of the kids club to see what's on for the kids, it's all in French. Yes I know nowadays you can point your phone and get a translation, but this dosent work for bingo being played

Super camping, de super prestations. Juste à qqe mètres de la mer. Super accueil. Piscine couverte et jeux pour les enfants super

This place is really good. I loved the fact they do fresh bread and croissants everyday. The pitch size was enormous. Only negative was there was no loo roll provided and the hand soap was empty all week. But would definitely recommend this site. The restaurant food was really good

An excellent site, especially for families. There were 6 of us in a 4 bed mobile home. Plenty of room and excellent facilities, dishwasher ( very important on holiday!!) full oven and hob, micro wave. The indoor pool is amazing, complete with rapid river and several slides. Outside there are a further 3 pools. 1 child's pool complete with pirate ship and small slides. Then another good size pool with slides. Then if you require something a little quieter there is a smaller pool, with child's area down by reception. Bike hire is good and affordable, including electric bikes! I found no problem with communication with the staff, good english was spoken for those who's french is a little rusty! My only negative would be that we were in a very large mobile, with an impressive covered decking, which left very little outside space around the van for the kids to play games etc. What outdoor space that was there was covered in a sort of gravel, almost like hardcore, so unsuitable for playing on. We were in a cul de sac which was very quiet as we went at the end of August beginning of September, so the kids could ride their bikes up and down with no problem. There is also a wonderful play park for the kids with lots of variety and suitable for all ages, our kids were 3 - 8. no problem with allowing them to ride to the playground on their own, everyone was very careful whilst driving around the site.

Camping L’Ocean is a fantastic place to stay. We have visited three times now as a family and there are plenty of activities for children of all ages. Staff are friendly and welcoming and the mobile homes are modern, clean and well equipped. It is a short walk to the beach and the swimming facilities are fantastic with an outdoor and indoor pools. There are plenty of animation activities to keep you entertained and occupied if you choose to join in. We will definitely return.

Firstly, the water park is brilliant. We spent hours playing on the slides and the lazy river. Our kids loved it- we went twice a day. Pitches are a good size and staff helpful. The big draw back is the sanitary facilities. For starters- no toilet roll. Not just run out but none provided. With little ones this is far from easy as they do not predict when they need to go, so you are walking around constantly armed with spare tissue! Also the showers were always dirty. We stayed 4 nights and not once saw them being cleaned. I know they have upgraded some facilities however the one we had to use in the large camping area were poor and felt unhygienic. This was frustrating considering the money spent on the rest of the site.

great campsite, lovely pool (got busy at weekends, out of season). The kids park was amazing, everything so clean and new. The food on site was lovely. Caravan was good size.

Super camping propre tous le personnel très agréable et réactive a la demande. Et très parc de jeux pour enfants petits et grands. Très bien les piscines.
