Campingplass Orbitur Viana do Castelo ***

We liked the very close site to the great beach. Actually there is everthing you need. The light buns in the shop are most delicious. We disliked the attitude of the staff. You really could tell who has the last spot and who is needing it. One positive exeption was the staff in the shop. Everything available but maintained very lousy and too few, like hot showers, hot water for dish washing or laundry. Dirty, no effort, just cashing. In Portugal just not ok.

Terrible campsite, after being on the best site ever this was not good. Reception staff unhelpful, sanitary facilities outdated and pitches very cramped. The more the better on this campsite with no regard of living space. og poo on our pitch with small children next door. Won't recommend this to anyone and I can't understand the high ratings, especially the covered up 3 stars at the reception, Maybe a warning.

Very friendly staff particularly in the shop and bar. Clean showers with plenty of hot water apart from the morning the trip switch had been activated! Large pitches and great location; the beautiful beach is very close and accessed by a walkway directly from the campsite. It is excellent for windsurfing and surfing.Viana itself is well worth a visit.

We were very disappointed with this site, our first ever in Portugal.the location is good and we were very entertained by watching the water sports. The supermarket had little to no stock and the one toilet block that was open was dirty, with excrement being left on the seat. Whilst we realise this is down to the client it was not cleaned. One of the 2 washing machines was temporarily out of order, but looked as if it had not been used for years. The one that was working was filthy. The pitches were moderate but soft sand. And ideal site for water sports enthusiasts, and well located to walk or take the ferry to Viana do Castelo. In our opinion the site had enough clients to warrant both toilet blocks being open.We expected more from a chain, but then again why should we?

Nice not too big campsite popular with Spanish people obviously enjoying cheaper prices - and better and less crowded environment thea in neighbouring Spanish coastal resorts. Pitches quite small. Direct access to beautiful sandy beach. Staff extremely kind and helpful, good English spoken in reception. Good food and beverages at no cost, long restaurant working hours. Wifi near reception.

I chose this site because of happy memories of a holiday spent here with my parents over 30 years ago. It's still the same site, but less pleasant: it was seriously overcrowded in late July, and the toilet facilities were overstretched. No hot water except in the showers -- I saw one man desperately trying to wash a cooking pot under the shower.
