CAMPING BENISTA

Really enjoyed this campsite. Lovely big pitches with loads of shade.Nice bar on site and a few shops, restaurant and fuel station right next door. Also a small golf course next door.Ideal base to go into Ajaccio. We took the boat across the bay rather than trying to park in the city.

The place is more 2 or 3* Camping place, not 4*.Positive: shadowed places, distance to beach and village is ok, some shops at the entrance, receptionist.Negative: the sanitary had its best time long ago. Layout & equipment looks old. The shower as low preasure and has to be reactivated frequently. The "men's corner " ceramic I have not seen since the 90ths. The corner has a smell. Even though cleaning is done very frequently, the overall impression remains poor (an old horse is not getting young if you clean it).Not used/ cannot be evaluated: Restaurant, swimming pool, sports area, minigolf. Mobilehomes.From our point of view the sanitary is the most important facility on a camping ground. We prefer 4* camping grounds because of that. This camping has not deserved it.We recommend the management to check some 3* camping grounds in 40 km distance. We have been there- they are higher standard.

A good campsite next to the main road, a bit noisy. Tried in low season when the pool and the restaurant were still closed, and only one toilet/showers block was open. It is not on the coast, the beach is close but you would need to drive, since no bicycle paths are available. Minimarket and shops are available 50 meters outside the entrance. ACSI discounts available in low season.

Definitely not a 4-star camping. The bathrooms were dirty and the accomodation is not so great. Unfortunately, there are not many other campings around.

Nice pitches and facilities which could use a facelift just a few minutes drive from the ferry terminal.
