One of the greatest camping experiences
We have visited multiple camping sites over the years and we can safely presume that «Erodios» is one of, if not the best camping site we have visited. Located in Gialova, a small touristic village in SW Peloponese, it boasts many magnificent beaches and places to visit within a 30’ range by car. As far as the camping itself goes, it has amazing facilities, clean and stocked up at any time, a mini market with a variety of products, from detergent to freshly baked bread and fresh fruits and vegetables. Moreover the self service restaurant inside serves a changing variety of meals each day with a very satisfying quality at a reasonable price. Finally there are washing machines which come in handy in case you have an accident (like we did). They charge 5€ for using it with a token (the size of the basket is really big, probably around 8-10kgs), and if you don’t have detergent you can ask for a tide pod at the mini market (0.50€) if you don’t want to buy a whole bottle. It’s a family friendly facility, with no loud beach bars or other attractions to keep you up at night and there’s a beach just outside the premises of the camping. There are also free sun beds at the camping’s beach which are free (first one, first served, there’s no reserving). Finally, the camping space is great and the shade (a combination of trees and shades) luscious. At times, the combination of the great environment and sufficient shade allowed us to sleep uninterrupted until 11:00am. Overall it was a great experience and we would love to...
Read moreOne of the best campsites I've been to in Greece. I came with a family and stayed for 5 days, but that was not enough! The camping is large with well maintained and clean facilities. The tent pitches are huge and offer plenty of shade, both natural and artificial. The paths are all paved and it was pleasant to walk around the camping. The taverna was fantastic and offered a wide variety of dishes (the pizzas were amazingly good). The camping has a pretty good mini market with fresh fruit and vegetables, bread and pies in the morning. Larger supermarkets can be found in the nearby village of Pilos.
The beach is with a fine sand and the sea is shallow near the shore, making it ideal for children. The natural shade of the tamarisk trees and the free sunbeds for camping guests are a big plus. My children loved the small rivers nearby that flow into the sea. They used nets to catch small fish and frogs, but we also saw freshwater turtles and small water snakes. The beach is long and you can walk or jog all the way to the Old Navarino Fortres and Voidokilia beach.
We would definitely come back! Camping Erodios is a fantastic place to stay when visiting Messinia and Pilos and offers an...
Read moreWe stayed there for a week. Initially we thought that there was a lack of privacy between the camping spots. But after a few days you get used to it by either putting your car on the one side and your clothing line on the other. The facilities were very clean and very taken care of. All of the communal areas were spotless and the covid measures were taken very seriously. we have reading few comments that the beach in the front is not ideal but I think that it's it's an excellent spot especially if you don't want to take your car to go somewhere else. The eBay is very well protected from my small island in the front so you can do all sorts of water sports. There was a say in almost all the camping spots it was a quiet very friendly atmosphere. A lot of sparrows woke up woke us up in the morning looking through our stuff to find some breadcrumbs. The mini market was a very well equipped at the reasonable prices and every day we had fresh bread and fresh pastries. The food was excellent and very well priced. Only know it was a very pleasant experience that stays in your memory and would make you...
