Negatives
Lots of mosquitoes from time to time Loud music in the evening Unfriendly sales clerks at the bakery counter in the supermarket
Great for families
We spent 11 wonderful days as a family of 5 on a super large comfort pitch in the pine forest. The distances to the pool, beach and sanitary building were short and the children quickly found their way around. The pool was great for the whole family, even if it was a bit chilly in mid-September. We were... pleasantly surprised by the sea. The water was very clean and clear and swimming was possible even at low tide thanks to the dredged pool. At low tide, the children were also busy catching crabs and it was similar to a warm Wadden Sea. It definitely had its charm.
It was very quiet on the campsite at night, there were no party people. Only the evening music performances until 11 p.m. would have been dispensable from our point of view, as a caravan unfortunately has little noise-insulating effect.
The sanitary buildings were brand new and always clean. The children's showers were very nicely done and also practical.
The bus connection to Grado works great and is very cheap. The 10-minute bus ride saves you having to look for a parking space and is free for children.
The pizza from the pool bar was very tasty.

Advantages
Clean sanitary facilities, shady pitches Friendly staff, pool area, beautiful cycle path to Grado.
Negatives
At Ebe, the use of SUP and surfboard is difficult due to the low water level.
Our second visit to this place
The staff at the reception is very friendly as well as those at the campsite, we were on the campsite in 1997 and are surprised at the positive development of the campsite. A lot has also been done on the beach, such as a play tower, swimming area on an otherwise flat beach. The sunbathing area has also been significantly enlarged. The restaurant on site can be recommended and is also well received.

A great 4 days in Grado
We (mother with 2 boys 11 and 7) were totally thrilled. The campsite is very clean. The sanitary facilities are constantly cleaned and repaired. My children really liked the pool. We also found the animation very amusing after this Corona time. I was very impressed with the sea, as I didn't have high... expectations based on the reviews. The sea is not deep and you can't swim very well, but it's great for sup rides and snorkeling. It's really clear and clean. We also took a hike through the sea from the jetty. The cycle path to Grado is really great. We cycled there every evening.

Advantages
Great pitches by the water, great pool area, clean sanitary facilities
Negatives
At most the swimming situation on the beach
Top campsite Great vacation
The location of the campsite is fantastic. From some of the pitches you can see across the sea as far as Trieste. The fact that no cars are allowed on the pitches also eases the situation enormously. The sanitary facilities were very clean and there was always a cleaning lady on site.
The pool area is... great and our children were very happy there.
Everyone at reception was very friendly and went out of their way to fulfill special requests.
The supermarket offers the essentials at reasonable prices.
The beach is very nice, the only thing you should know is that the water is very shallow and swimming is rather difficult.
We (family with three children) liked it very much and we will definitely be back.

tidy sanitary facilities, good infrastructure
Negatives
the local conditions of the lagoon - swimming only possible to a limited extent
We were already aware of the advantages and disadvantages.....
We stayed at the campsite for a few days at the end of August, we already knew the campsite from a few stays in mobile homes and therefore knew what to expect. There are certainly nicer beaches for bathing and swimming, and the lagoon is probably ideal for small children - we chose the site because it... is quite far north and the journey was therefore not that far. It was fine for a few days of relaxing by the sea with our teenage sons, but for longer stays there is simply not enough "entertainment" for this age group. The site itself is fine, our pitch was a comfort with water, waste water and electricity connection, was nice and quiet and the sanitary blocks were fine - not state-of-the-art, but were constantly maintained, which we prefer to a modern, dirty building ;-) On-site catering is possible (restaurant, supermarket) but has increased in price compared to previous years. Shopping is possible in Grado in larger supermarkets without any problems. Conclusion - rather a recommendation for families with smaller children, rather difficult from teenage age.

Quiet, shady camping in the pine forest
Negatives
. . . in the evening some mosquitoes
we would come back
Arrival without reservation Whitsun vacation 2019 . Friendly welcome in German . We received a map with the free pitches that were free in our given period , so we chose a pitch in the pine forest . (Car must be parked in a separate parking lot) Coincidentally, nearby was the new wash house , which was... always clean , with music , soap , toilet paper , towel dryer . (the other wash houses are older, but also clean) Sink for dishes with exemplary hot water, who needs has cooling facilities, beautiful pool area, animation as usual. Sea: beautiful swimming islands with trampolines are fun for kids and teens, water was clean at our time, less suitable for frequent swimmers . only in places some seaweed available . Payment takes place within the campsite with a chip bracelet that you have to load with money (advantage you don't need to have a wallet with you, disadvantage - you have to keep track). Night's sleep was always respected. Grado is a very nice place to stroll in the evening, with the car in 5 min. there, we will visit again.

Advantages
Family-friendly, flat, well-kept sandy beach, friendly staff, pool area, cleanliness, restaurant, store, 3 bars, sports facilities.
Negatives
Season closes too early, only one beach access, too many plastic dishes, dog area should be more strictly demarcated.
nice vacation
Always a good place for a vacation for almost 10 years. People who don't like nature or are afraid of crabs and seaweed should go to the indoor pool. Preferably with their dogs.

Advantages
beautiful complex, top facilities, close to Grado and Trieste
Negatives
the sea is a pond full of seaweed and only a limited area is deep enough for splashing around
Top campsite - sea poor as expected
We were really impressed with the campsite, but the sea, being in the lagoon, was almost worse than expected. If you don't necessarily need the sea, this is the right place for you.

The sea! Park your car separately from the pitch!
All good
We were there in summer 2018. We really liked this place. The only drawback for us was the sea. It is very shallow. There are tides and lots of seaweed in the water. The bathing area is dredged. There are prescribed routes for pedal boats because of the seaweed!

Barred beach access 23 hours a day
Villaggio Europa Grado - closed beach access
The reason for this was the inconvenience caused this year for the first time by blocking access to the beach in front of the pine forest area. This creates a detour of about 700 meters via the beach bar to get to the quieter part of the beach. The reason given by the campsite, that this is required... by Italian law, only concerns the fencing of the campsite. However, the beach access in the area of the pine forest, which has always been open until now, is not affected by this and could therefore remain open. Perhaps it will be possible to restore the previous situation. Then we would also consider booking again. Otherwise, at least as advance information for future guests, a corresponding note would be necessary in the descriptions on the homepage.

Pure chaos
I can't rate what the campsite itself is like. I had to cancel on the day of booking (1 month before the start of my vacation) because there was not enough space for 3 families. Despite being informed of this several times, this cancellation was simply ignored and an excessive amount was unjustifiably withheld from the deposit. The question is whether the campsite is just chaotic or simply run in a dubious manner!

Advantages
Great pool area; spacious, quiet pitches
Negatives
shallow water,
Restful and relaxing
PITCH: We had a very spacious pitch right next to the beach. There are different sizes of pitches - from small to xlarge - we arrived spontaneously and got a comfort pitch with water, waste water and 10 amps of electricity. BEACH: The sea is only suitable for swimming to a limited extent. Our 10-year-old... daughter really enjoyed the rubber inflatables in the water and the entertainment program during the day and in the evening in the really big arena. The lack of waves and the shallow water were not appealing to us adults, but our 1-year-old daughter loved it. The small crabs and fish and the seaweed (which is removed daily and is typical and natural for the lagoon) didn't bother us. The swimming pool is great! There are 2 great slides and a current channel. Of course, you have to know (or be able to read ;-)) that the opening times of the slides and the current channel alternate. Great attention is paid to the safety of guests in the swimming pool and on the beach, which is why the whistling of the lifeguards is a little annoying. WLAN is not available at places close to the beach. SANITARIES: mostly clean, cleaning takes place later in the morning (approx. 9am) Toilet paper and soap were always available. There are children's toilets for men and women. Unfortunately, the baby changing room is an imposition. It is new but not at all baby-friendly, much too narrow and impractical. SUPERMARKET: well-stocked, prices not overpriced. The nearest supermarket (Eurospar) is about 2 km towards Grado on the left-hand side of the road and has a very good range of products. BUTTONS are a real nuisance. However, I suspect that in general little poison is allowed to be sprayed in the Pineta as there are strict environmental regulations. I have also seen a few cockchafers and wasps as well as sparrows and blackbirds. Normally you don't hear any birdsong in the campsites on the upper Aria - no insects - no birds. MUSIC IN THE EVENING we didn't find it too loud, as the arena is quite far away from the beach and therefore also from most of the pitches. The bungalow residents are worse off. It seems very important to me to say, as some here compare the pitches in Jesolo with this one: Super PRICE - performance ratio!!! We paid about 50 euros here for 2 adults with child and baby on a large pitch close to the beach...in Jesolo comparatively 70 - 80 euros...We only paid at the end at checkout. Wristbands:We didn't always wear the wristbands and nobody asked us about them. We loaded a little more money onto the bracelet right at the beginning and didn't have to go to reception often to top up. If there is still money on the wristband at the end, you get it back at checkout. If it gets lost, you pay 5 euros. The recharged money is not lost, but is transferred to the new wristband. We stayed at the campsite for 12 days and had a good rest.

Beach (cesspool), mosquitoes
No recommendation! Beach and sea don't really exist!
First of all: it's teeming with mosquitoes! "BEACH": It shouldn't really be called that because it's more reminiscent of a shallow, smelly pond. This is absolutely nothing for anyone who likes swimming! At first we thought the shallow water would be great for our little son to play in. However, there... are too many crabs and too much seaweed to let children into the water here. With bathing shoes, you might make it to the rubber bouncy toys that can be used here free of charge. However, the sea there is already very murky and flooded with seaweed. Unfortunately, you can't build sandcastles either. The sand is only about 10 cm deep, so after the first shovelful you are already digging in stinking black earth. Sunshade and 2 sun loungers 14 EUR, grass to lie on in the rear area, volleyball court and large playground available, but not for small children. Pedal boat rental. POOL: very large, lots of different pools for children, massage jets, 2 slides, current channel (only noticed once in 2 days that it was also on). Very crowded (because of course nobody likes to go to the "beach"), very loud (constantly booming system or animation), water temperature pleasant - rather warm. Swimming is also difficult here. PITCHES: all rather small. Moderately shady, access rather difficult - lots of crooked trees and roots. SAT reception was excellent on our pitch. If you book a 100 m² pitch you only get approx. 85 m², the remaining 15 m² are deducted for the car, which has to be parked outside the caravan pitches. Very annoying, as you always have a different parking space, have to search for one every time you arrive and often find one far away from the pitch. Be careful at the pitches facing the sea, there are lots of mosquitoes here, and on one evening there are lots of young people partying on the beach. SANITARY: our wash house was newly tiled and looked good. However, most of the shower heads no longer worked properly and 2 of the 3 hairdryers were broken. Cleanliness rather mediocre, in the morning still all the dirt from the evening, it is probably only cleaned later in the morning. No toilet paper. Baby bath, children's showers and toilets available (although these are only in the ladies' areas). One evening there was no hot water. DOGS: This is the most dog-unfriendly place I have ever experienced. Dogs are actually only allowed on their own pitch and are only allowed on one road to the reception outside. And on this short route you are constantly checked to see if you have poop bags with you. Ridiculous. I would like to know what the €6 per day that you have to pay is for. There is no service for it. The dog is only allowed to breathe. ANIMATION: plentiful, we can't judge the quality, water gymnastics at the pool looked more like amusement. Show and children's disco every evening (8:45pm is still too late for our children though). RECEPTION: very friendly, but you always have to queue for a long time. It's really annoying if you just want to charge your wristband to buy a drink. You always have to wear a wristband, but not a disposable one like in other places, but one with a lot of plastic on it, like the ones in the swimming pool for the lockers. You are also checked here! The wristband is also used for cashless payments throughout the campsite. Wi-Fi: 2 hours a day are free (unfortunately it only worked once for us and the connection was too slow even for WhatsApp). SUPERMARKET: fresh fruit, fresh sausage and cheese, OK assortment, everything somehow available, of course a bit overpriced, as there is no supermarket outside. In Grado we saw some in the pedestrian zone. All in all, I feel sorry for the families who have to spend their vacation here. We went to this campsite on our way home as an emergency solution because it was the only one that didn't have a minimum stay of 7 nights in July. Otherwise we would have gone to one of the great places between Jesolo and Punta Sabbioni. We were on the road for 4 weeks and visited 8 campsites, this one was by far the worst. We had booked 4 nights and had to pay for them immediately on arrival - I now understand why. We left after 2 nights, of course without a refund. I will also write to the ADAC, it simply can't be that this place is rated so highly!

Large, luxurious campsite with few flaws
Great campsite with a nice pool and beautiful beach. You are not allowed to have your car parked next to the caravan (small pitches in the pine forest). The entertainment program was motivated, but mostly English/Italian with an almost exclusively German audience. There was not always hot water in the showers. Otherwise everything was fine in every respect.
