Scene
Heavily wooded campground popular with families and nature lovers
The Villaggio Odissea is
an expansive campground in a wooded area that's surrounded by tall
pine trees and Mediterranean brush. The property isn’t highly
manicured, but has a rustic and natural look that enhances the authenticity of the camping experience. There's a front desk area in a small detached building just next to the property's large parking lot, but it lacks seating and is really just for checking in and out. Like most of Italy's many beachside camping villages, the Odissea attracts families, couples, and groups of friends looking for an affordable back-to-nature experience.
Location
Located in Cilento National Park Palinuro next to Mingardo Beach
This camping village is situated in the Cilento National Park Palinuro and borders Mingardo Beach. Although there isn’t
much within walking distance, the camping village is just a short drive to
many of the area’s attractions. It's a 10-minute drive to Cove Buondormire, 15 minutes to the Caves of Palinuro, and 20 minutes to the Marina di Camerota. The WWF Oasis Bussento Caves are a half-hour drive away and the Bay Infreschi takes about 40 minutes. The Velia Ruins are 50-minutes away and both the statue
of Christ the Redeemer (Cristo Redentore) and the Pollino
National Park take about 90 minutes to reach. Naples and the Naples Airport are two and a half hours from the property by car.
Rooms
Contemporary mobile homes with kitchenettes and front porches
The camping village offer three types of mobile homes. Juniors have one bedroom and sleep two people, Standards have three rooms for four to five people, and Bungalows have three
rooms that can house four to six people. The outside of the mobile homes look worn but interiors are clean and appear to have been well-kept and maintained. All have contemporary built-in wood furniture in the bedrooms, large windows, kitchenettes, small dining areas, air-conditioning, flat-screen TVs,and covered porches that look out on small grassy areas. Bathrooms have faux-pine floors and walls, along with tiny shower stalls and bowl sinks. Wi-Fi is free throughout the property and extends to the mobile homes. Guests are charged a cleaning fee after checking out.
Features
Private beach, buffet-style restaurant, cafe, sports activities, and kids' club
This camping village is situated next to a large, sandy,
private beach with cheery citrus-colored lounge chairs and parasols, surrounded by gorgeous green mountains.
The spacious, sun-lit restaurant has indoor and outdoor seating and serves breakfast, lunch, and dinner buffets. There is also an outdoor bar on a
covered patio with a flat-screen TV; this is the spot for cocktails, juices, coffees, and snacks. Guests who prefer to cook themselves can get food and supplies at
the small on-site marketplace. There's also a big playground with table tennis and an entertainment team that puts on performances and hosts activities with an emphasis on kids.
