"Overpriced, inflexible and absolutely not recommended for motorcycle travelers - I have been traveling by motorcycle and tent for over 25 years and have experienced many campsites around the world. Unfortunately, the Delta campsite in Locarno is a negative exception for me. Motorcyclists are not allowed to ride their bikes onto the site. I had to unload all my luggage, load it onto a trolley and carry it on foot across the large site to the tent pitch. And that on the day of arrival and departure, even in the pouring rain. Despite polite suggestions, such as briefly opening the nearby gate or pushing my motorcycle by hand, there was no exception or goodwill. Interestingly, there are huge luxury motorhomes parked behind the gate that cannot possibly fit over the main entrance. I'm sure they are allowed to use the gate. At the same time, cars, e-scooters and bicycles drive freely around the site. This unequal treatment clearly feels discriminatory to me. The tent meadow was listed as full, although it was almost empty when I arrived and didn't fill up the next day either. Directly behind it is a large, unused area that could easily have been used as a motorcycle parking lot. However, a simple and logical solution was rejected. The employee at reception had to deal with my frustration, although she only implements instructions. My anger is directed at the management, who score points with rigid rules and customer unfriendliness. I paid 84 francs for one night with a tent and one person, with no electricity, no service and no flexibility. The price-performance ratio is unacceptable to me. The restaurant was barely occupied, but there was no service at all. Further evidence of a lack of service at high prices. The campsite exploits the attractive location in Locarno and access to the lake to make maximum profit. Obviously at the expense of individual travelers and motorcyclists. I will never stay there again and recommend that you urgently reconsider such rules.

"A safe value in Ticino - We have been visiting this paradisiacal campsite since the 1980s. Checking in is quick and completely unbureaucratic (we have a reservation for 3 nights). The shady spot on the peninsula is ideal in high summer. We had about 24° Celsius). The pitches are spacious, even for larger motorhomes and caravans. The store is very well stocked and has generous opening hours. The absolute hit is the camp's own restaurant, which has been run by the same owners for 38 years. The menu focuses on Mediterranean cuisine and fresh products. The quality is of a high standard. The only thing I can't understand is that they still accept construction plastic for the awnings. X years ago I wrote about this shortcoming on this site and was given a beautiful CD by the operator at the time. It is imperative that a remedy is found here. Vegetation has a particularly hard time thriving in the dry conditions in Ticino. The vegetation is radically destroyed by building plastic on the ground. The site is completely dog-free, which we see as a big plus.

"Disappointed by the campsite - We stayed in a rental caravan from May 15 - 21. We were very disappointed with this stay. On their home page they write about 15 luxuriously equipped caravans. But we understand luxurious in a completely different way. We have been campers for about 50 years and have seen many campsites and rental properties. However, the rental properties offered by Camping Delta do not meet the requirements. In our rental caravan, the blinds and curtains were defective, the entrance door was jammed and could only be opened by force in some cases. What should not be missing in a "luxuriously" equipped caravan is a toilet. But this was removed. If there is no toilet in the caravan, these rental properties should be closer to the sanitary facilities. The fridge in the caravan was not connected and therefore not usable. There was a fridge in the awning, but not enough in hot weather. We expect from a campsite operator that the awning is set up professionally, which was not the case here (dirty, moldy, awning partially sagged). We had the feeling that such defects should have been repaired by the start of the season, otherwise these rental properties will no longer be habitable in the foreseeable future (presumably profit is the priority here). We have made reservations in advance at many campsites in recent years, but nowhere did we have to pay a reservation fee of CHF 50.00, which was not deducted from the final bill (a rip-off!!). The friendliness at reception should also be reconsidered! Many campsites have benefited greatly from "Corona". But these campsites will certainly come down to earth again. What was positive about this site, however, were the sanitary facilities. They were very clean. Conclusion of our stay: We cannot recommend this campsite to others (a shame).

"Wonderful stay - Congratulations on this beautiful campsite. Good location with bus on the doorstep to explore the towns by public transport. Big advantage: no dogs etc on site. Completely different crowd👍👍 Beautiful plots with trees. Squirrels, ducks and sparrows visit the site. Always clean despite fully booked campsite. Thanks to the team at reception for their great efforts. Even without a reservation and "Platz-Züglätä" we always got a great pitch. Large store with a good range. Restaurant with a good offer. We would love to come back - even spontaneously Marianne and Peter SG

"Very nice - I recommend the pitches by the bay. They are worth the extra charge (A pitch)! We had pitch 66.
