Excellent stay thank you, we don't use all that was on offer as we used the Park as a base to sleep and spent most days away. The accomadation was basic, but thats what we needed. Good value

This place is very far away from Barcelona. It is more of a family camping atmosphere than a hostel.. however.. it was a very nice place to stay with lots to do one the site. Very difficult and frusterating to get back and forth from Barcelona.

Do NOT go here if you plan on visiting Barcelona. The total time to get to Barcelona is about an hour and a half, 40 min on the bus, 50 min on the train. Also, you can't experience Barcelona night life because the last bus from the train stop to Villanova Park is at 10:30.

i fully enjoyed my stay in villanova camping park. I would definitely love to come back. The swimming pools were very clean. The entertainment in the evening was good as well. I suggest to stay in Barcelona for a 1-2 days and then came here to relax.

The staff was little unfriendly, unwilling to help and provide service. We had to check out before 6 in the morning to catch the flight back home (the reception opens at 7) so the security guard was supposed to be at hand to give us the deposit back, but the reception forgot to arrange for this and we ended up waiting until 7 and barely made it to the airport in time.close

This isnt a good place if you want to go into Barcelona, as it is quite far from the city, but if you are just looking to relax it is great! We used it as a vacation away from our vacation! The only bad thing is that they use water from the sea for everything, so it is all salty.

We stayed 4 nights in bungalow. It was nice but it was freezing inside. Kitchen was good [there were plates and other things]. Tapwater smelt terrible.. The whole place (Vilanova Park) was great. The weather wasn't the best but in the summer it must be great to stay there especially for families...

Advertising was completely misleading as we booked a `3room, private bathroom` and we got a sad, broken caravan. If we werent so tired we would have left immediately. We ended up leaving early next morning and finding other accomodation. not impressed.

The site was quite quiet while we were there (end of September) with lots of middle-aged Danish, Dutch & German caravanners who were there long-term. Without a hire car, we were limited to public transport, and we found that the early finish on local buses to the site was limiting, as it made it expensive to go out in Vilanova. With that said, the local public transport is good otherwise( Barcelona 45 mins & 2.40euros by train). The staff on site were friendly and helpful, evenings in the bar were fun, but not much to do on site apart from that. I am aware that lots more goes on in high season and I am sure the site is absolutely "buzzin' " in Summer. As a base for days out in Barcelona this place is great, but if you want nightlife out of the main holiday season, go nearer to Barcelona. Vilanova has a nice beach, and several good restaurants on the seafront drive. Tip for Barcelona: travel by Metro in the city. Catch it at Sants station where you arrive, its cheap, easy, fast and will take you all over the city.close

Have mixed feelings about this accommodation. The booking was slightly vague about proximity to beach and type of accommodation booked for party of 4 adults. On arrival were escorted to mobile home not suitable to comfortably accommodate 4 adults. However staff were very helpful in moving us... more Have mixed feelings about this accommodation. The booking was slightly vague about proximity to beach and type of accommodation booked for party of 4 adults. On arrival were escorted to mobile home not suitable to comfortably accommodate 4 adults. However staff were very helpful in moving us to a chalet but which they stressed was an exception to the norm. Campsite was very peaceful with lovely swimming pool but in mid sept felt very much end of season. Bar in complex closed at 12 midnight and having been told it was closing soon at 11.50pm on one occasion all the lights were actually switched off at 12.00 midnight while we sat on outdoor bar seating. As a result we attempted to gather our things and leave the bar area in the pitch dark which did not seem very safe or hospitable! Very limited choice and high prices in restaurant. The nearest beautiful beach was accessible 10 minutes by car or 30 minute local bus journey. Campsite seems ideal for families/ groups wanting to chill out but not for young adults wanting to socialise or sample local cuisine.close
