Camping Village Baia Blu la Tortuga

***SPIAGGIA NON ADATTA AI DISABILI*** - MOLTI DISAGI Ho soggiornato 15gg con la mia famiglia e mamma disabile al 100% su sedia a rotelle motorizzata. Mi è stato garantito che non avremo avuto alcun problema e invece al nostro arrivo in spiaggia troviamo una passerella al quanto in pendenza come tutta la spiaggia praticamente i lettini erano quasi in posizione verticale (dato forse dal vento Maestrale ma nessuno ha fatto nulla per 15gg per poter minimamente risolvere la questione, hanno preferito sdradicare ombrelloni piuttosto che sistemare, benvenuto al sud!) Mi hanno fatto pagare un supplemento di 85€ per la prima fila, con disabile al 100%, per trovarci a circa 30mt dalla riva con discesa al mare altrettanto in pendenza. Un disastro per noi con tanto di finale che mamma è caduta sui gradoni, MAI SCOPATI E PULITI, costretta a scendere a piedi, cadendo e rompendosi 4 costole! BUONA ORRENDA VACANZA DISABILE e accompagnatori, per noi non potranno mai essere vacanze grazie a questi personaggi che pensano solo ad incassare dei soldi e se ne fregano altamente delle persone disabili. Anche perchè tengo a sottolineare che al momento della mia dimostranza la reazione è stata quella di totale menefreghismo. Grazie anche a voi questo mondo non potrà mai migliorare!

Go to this camping ONLY if: 1) you are traveling with your family and you have small kids (under 12); 2) you are planning to spend most of the time at the campsite; 3) you don't mind being really overcharged for pretty much everything. Indeed, for families with small kids and a large budget, this place is fine. The water by their beach is clean and beautiful, even though the beach is not that great; the campsite is safe and clean; there are enough amenities for children and the staff I engaged with is polite and nice. But, I don’t have small kids anymore, I don’t care to spend all my time at the campsite, and I don’t enjoy being overcharged to the point of silliness for literally everything. Therefore, after spending a week in July, I know I will not return to Baia Blu La Tortuga and here are my main reasons. The small and sad bungalow (Baia Blu model) - I have known for a while that Sardinia is an expensive destination and I knew the bungalow we booked was small. We just didn't expect it to be so small and, frankly, given the high price we paid, quite shabby and badly designed (to open the fridge door, I had to step inside the bathroom). The prior year we stayed in another small camping bungalow in Tuscany. This is just to say that we don't have problems with small places, and throughout the years we have been quite flexible with less than perfect accommodations, if they were priced fairly. Last year, for less than half of what we paid Baia Blu La Tortuga, when we arrived our bungalow had clean sheets for one queen bed and two singles, one set of towels for 4 people, a new roll of toilet paper and FREE Wi-Fi. In contrast, this Summer when we arrived at the early hours of the morning at Baia Blu La Tortuga, we found a bungalow that had none of that stuff. The first night we slept directly on the mattresses, and we fought over tissues paper when we had to use the bathroom. (FYI, at our arrival when I requested sheets and towels, we were told that the first set was already in the bungalow and included). The overpriced food & drink services – Normally the shops at any campsite are overpriced, and even here Baia Blu La Tortuga did not disappoint us. However… we did need toilet paper and a bunch of other stuff. (BTW, the closest town is Santa Teresa di Gallura, so I recommend doing your main shopping there, but it’s not always an option). What else can we charge you for? - Last year we rented four bikes for a week. We paid a fraction of what it would have cost us to do the same at Baia Blu La Tortuga, if they even had available bikes, but they didn’t. I was reminded again that it is to be expected: we are in Sardegna after all! OK. Then, we discovered that Baia Blu La Tortuga charges even for using the lounge chairs by their pool…! Now, why is that? Isn’t Baia Blu La Tortuga overcharging me already for my dinky bungalow, the sheets, the towels, the wi-fi, etc., so that they can afford to have more free lounging chairs by the pool? Finally…Check

It was a pity that it was not near a village . But nice swimmingpool and near the beach . It was nice , quiet and clean . Price was ok but you need to pay a lot extra for sheets and towels …. And cleaning …

Overall a pleasant family stay in a decent camping house (Baia Lux) but given the price and 4 star ranking I would have expected higher quality of food offer (1 restaurant in camping is good only for pizza, other meals especially fish of really low level plus location and furniture is also not great - all plastic) and facilities (kids play area is ok but would need some renovation / same as sport facilities very old). Staff is great and friendly. Swimming pools are very new and nice but lack of free sitting areas oblige to stay on grass or pay to rent sun beds for the whole day, not ideal given we usually like to spend only some hours there the rest being at sea. Sea in front of camping: nice and clean but almost no sand only little stones and deep in few meters, so ideal for snorkeling or water sports not small kids or walks on the beach. Camping houses are too close to each other, not much space. Outside camping not much to do without long drives. Check in/out timings are also not ideal (after 17/before 9).
