This family-run campsite on the shores of Lake Lugano offers stunning mountain and lake views, especially at sunset, and guests consistently praise the breathtaking panorama. The location is a highlight: Porlezza town center is within easy walking distance, and by bike or e-scooter you can reach shops, supermarkets, and restaurants in just minutes. The campsite itself is spacious and well-organized, with generous pitches; during off-peak seasons you can even choose your own spot. Many visitors opt for front-row pitches to wake up to the magnificent scenery. Cleanliness is a strong point across the site, including the sanitary facilities, chemical toilet disposal, and gray water stations. Older washrooms are currently being renovated, which shows ongoing investment. The on-site restaurant is popular with both campers and locals, serving good food at reasonable prices, and there's also a shop for fresh bread and basic groceries. Guests appreciate the very friendly, accommodating staff and the welcoming family atmosphere. For active travelers, the area is great for swimming in the lake, cycling, and exploring nearby towns like those around Lake Como. The campsite has a dedicated dog area, a playground with kids' animation, and boat access with launching facilities. However, the swimming pool is not free and requires a separate, rather steep payment; some visitors find this unclear. A few note that the approach roads from Switzerland can be narrow and winding, though the views along the way are spectacular. Also, the town of Porlezza itself offers only limited attractions, so for more activities you'll need to venture further. For winter or autumn stays, the campsite is particularly affordable and tranquil. The combination of cleanliness, amenities, and pet-friendly policies creates the perfect ingredients for a pleasant holiday. Its long-standing reputation as a top-tier destination, held for over four decades, speaks to its consistent quality and enduring appeal.
