Maria Teresa, Leo, and Paola were incredibly kind and attentive, always ready to help with anything we needed. They were happy to check schedules for us, answer our questions, and make us feel completely at home with their warm and familiar treatment.
The whole experience was truly incredible, and a big part of that was thanks to them. Their kindness and hospitality made our stay even more special. Thank you so much for everything — without a doubt, I hope to return to San Menaio someday! It will definitely be a place I remember with great affection.

I've never seen a title as successful as \"seaside family\". The trio of brothers were in charge of opening the doors of their family, their project and also their hearts. Everything went very well and very carefully. Looking forward to coming back next year, I will miss you! Thanks for everything!\n\nI would not miss the opportunity to live this experience. Totally recommended

My first Worldpackers experience and I have nothing but amazing things to say about my time at the camping! From the first day, I felt like part of the family. Even with the language barrier, I couldn't have asked for a better experience! I was originally meant to help with housekeeping, but I ended up cleaning the bar/ surrounding areas and helping with the dishes during the breakfast service. I didn't mind at all, as everyone was so kind, supportive and helpful throughout my stay. I would definitely recommend!!

Overall, I had a very positive experience with Campeggio the camping. I always felt welcomed and appreciated, and despite miscommunications I always felt respected and we were always able to find a solution. Everyone is truly so generous and I immediately felt welcomed into their community from the first day of my arrival. I learned so much from my time there, not just with working in a bar setting but also with interpersonal skills. I am so grateful that I was able to stay with Campeggio the camping for my first Worldpackers experience and I wish everyone there all the best :)

This was a really good experience in the south of Italy. Maria Teresa, Paola and Leo are incredible people. They were so nice from the minute I arrived, they taught us everything we had to know. We did bartending at the pool bar and cleaning those spaces. I got a private room for my stay and was really nice, they also give the volunteers an umbrella and chairs at the beach 10/10.
Sometimes there was misscommunication between the hosts and us, but it's their first experience with volunteers and they did great. They made us feel like part of the family. Thanks

Overall, I had a good experience working as a bartender at the campsite. I learned a lot about working behind a bar, preparing drinks , serving customers and communicating with guests. It was a great opportunity to gain new skills and become more confident. The working hours were fair and manageable. Although I sometimes felt that I wasn't fully included by a team, everyone was still polite and respectful. The accommodation could've been a little bit more comfortable and cleaner, but it's was okay. All in all, I felt welcome and enjoyed my time at the campsite. It was a valuable experience!
