Vilanova Park April 2024

Part of an Easter getaway, specifically wanting to visit Barcelona. Very easy to access, just off the main route to Barcelona. Friendly reception staff speaking very good English, one staff member was actually English. Escorted to our pitch and was immediately given a larger one. We have a 7m Sprinter and many pitches would have been too small. Our pitch was perfectly flat, no ramps needed. Electrical connection is standard 13A European, NOT 16A 3 pin round, but we carry an adaptor. Many have said it, the site is huge. Didn't see any of the holiday homes occupied near us, which made it very quiet. There were quite a few school groups on site but didn't experience any noise. Can imagine in high season the place must be heaving. At the weekend, loads of city folk descended on the site, apparently a lot of them have a pitch for 3 months early season and spend weekends there, who wouldn't. The restaurant was pleasant, serving good value food. The site shop was surprisingly large and very well stocked. The outdoor pool with slides was open but the water is not heated, looked lovely but too cold for us. Didn't look at the wellness area. Large clay outdoor sports pitches next to the main pool, ideal for sporty families. Tennis courts up by the main entrance. Modern laundry facilities. The elsen point is in a locked cupboard, you have to go to reception for a key and leave your identity card, do your emptying and go back to reception, quite a trek up/down and again. The bus to Barcelona was excellent, about an hour each way and numerous departure times, cash only and it only runs Monday to Friday. Overall, a very pleasant place to stay and a great location for visiting nearby. The town market on Saturday was full of local produce and very good value, bought great ingredients for a BBQ.

Large and Friendly

Stayed 4 nights Mid April 2023, Some pitches are small, we were able to move to a larger pitch without any problem, very accommodating. Large site, busy road outside so couldn't walk the dog off-site. Spotless toilets and showers, restaurant serves excellent food, 2 fantastic pool complexes and sports area, ideal for families.

Very large site , Super restaurant , very noisy in the evenings

We stayed on the site for one week at the end of March 2023 . This is a very large site the main of the site is taken up by holiday lodges. The worst thing about the site was we found it very noisy in the evenings with rowdy families having parties in the lodges , on a couple of nights there was noise well into 1:00 AM . The site has an absolutely superb restaurant , we ate at the inside restaurant every evening , beautiful crisp white linen tablecloths and napkins , a very good choice of food however we did find that the staff we're very overworked and tended to more or less drop the food Infront of you and rush off . There is a regular bus service from the gates of the site into the centre of Barcelona this was very handy , we also took the local bus from the gate of the site into the local town . The so-called Wellness centre is a bit of a joke , it's just an indoor pool where the water is slightly heated . Whenever we went it was absolutely rammed with children , the sauna was closed , they should rename it the ” indoor children's pool” . Because of the noise in the evenings we won't be going back

A very large site but good quality and quiet in March

We booked 4 nights in Vilanova in March, on our way back up the coast on the return leg of our Spanish tour. We made our booking a few days before arriving, but there was plenty of space. We wanted a few days’ relaxation after a busy few days in Valencia, and had exactly that. Vilanova town didn’t look that interesting at first glance but when we walked down the following day we found the old part, the market, the pleasant beach and the extensive marina and we were won over. We visited Sitges one day, making the mistake of going by bus, which took ages – the return by train was the same price and way quicker. The site itself, as others have said, is enormous with many different companies’ mobile homes and chalets, but in March it was very quiet and our pitch was fine, although a little difficult to access up a sharp kerb. Facilities were superb. We would be happy to go back if we’re in the area again.

Very good site

We stayed here for a week in January 2023. It’s a very large site on the outskirts of Vilanova i la Geltrú. We found it easily and after checking in we were escorted to "area G" where we were able to choose our pitch. The pitches in this area are set amongst pine trees and are all quite shady - we could have done with a bit more sun to be honest as it was the depths of winter, but our chosen pitch was a good size and level. The site is very big, with a lot of mobile homes etc, but is beautifully kept, and the shower and toilet blocks had nice shower and vanity cubicles with plenty of hot water and were kept very clean. As it was low season the two outdoor pools were closed, but the indoor pool/wellness centre, bar/restaurant and supermarket were all open for a few hours a day. Wi-Fi is free in the bar if you buy a drink. The town is very pleasant and is about an hour’s walk, but there is a regular bus service from the site - you can buy a 10 journey ticket from the site shop. We had day trips out to Barcelona (bus service from the site), Sitges - a seaside resort with narrow streets and original shops, and to the Roman city of Tarragona. We booked with the CAMC and paid about £21 a night for a fully serviced pitch with 10 amp electricity included; local taxes payable on arrival added €2 per night. It was our second stay here after a 10 year gap, and we would stay again.

lovely site

We stopped over for a few days en route south in December. It was quiet which was nice. The shop is brilliant for an on site shop, there was a great bar and restaurant and the pitches were fine. As it's on a hill you might have a view of the sea in the distance (about 32/3 kilometres). We missed the bus from the campsite into Barcelona. I would not recommend this as the regular bus into town then the train was wearisome. The staff are exceptionally nice and helpful, as we found we had the wrong electric connection. Great feel about it, clean facilities and relaxing (and the trees were not too thick to block the much hoped for sun). Brilliant.

Good base to visit Barcelona and a well run site with a very decent restaurant/bar and swimming pool

We liked the site. Well run, good restaurant and bar, nice swimming pool. Good clean services. Nice staff. Aboutr 45 minutes drive to Barcelona. 2 buses leave the site in the morning 08:25 and 09:15 (roughly) and two buses come back to the site in the evening leaving Barcelona 18:00 - 19:00 ish. The bus takes an hour we were told. We drove there and the road access was fine. Parking is Barcelona was easy. I prepaid online using a B:SM garage. Very simple. We parked near Plaza de España with very easy access to the magic fountain and a bus stop on the open top bus tours (orange circuit). Also a good base to access Tarragona. Disappointed with the local towns of Vilanova and Sitges. Nothing to write home about.

Busy busy busy

Stayed here for one night on way down to southern Spain - arrived after very tiring and testing journey where ended up in centre of Barcelona because Garmin satnav was slow to advise which lane - not recommended. We were escorted to tiniest pitch in a very tight corner at the far corner of the site next to permanent pitches and where we didn’t even have room to get chairs out - how we got out of pitch the next morning I do not know as we had to be careful given height of our unit not to hit trees and or other units. This site is a town in its own right and admittedly we were there on a Saturday night but I thank goodness we have air conditioning as it drowned out the noise of the music which was still throbbing at 3.15am despite our being the furthest away from the main activity area and when I got up at 6.30am to walk the dog young people were staggering back to their tents with alcohol still in hand. This is a party place and very loud and so not for us but has lots and lots of facilities for people who don’t mind noise or have young children. The toilets were, however, filthy but the motorhome service point worked and was clean enough - it is mainly a cabin / lodge site it seems - campers and caravans seem to be an afterthought.

Great Site

We stayed here for 10 nights, early august 2018 in a touring caravan. as mentioned already its a big site, but where we were pitched was quiet. the pitches were a little small thus meaning that with our 7.5 metre van, awning etc we struggled to get our car on aswell so could only park it half on the pitch. the amenities were great, swimming pool was excellent, and we spend many days there. the supermarket is well stocked, and relatively cheap considering its a shop on site. the site is well situated for Barcelona and surrounding area. ***** you will require a continental hook up adapter. ******* only negative is depending what pitch your given the pitch surround is hard to get the caravan over and if you dont have a mover you will struggle to push it on. the phone signal is good within the local area and vilanova is a great place to visit, lovely beach etc.

First class, ideal for visiting Barcelona

We stayed three nights here in order to visit Barcelona. This is one of the best sites we've ever used in Europe, barring the fact that it can be a tad noisy at night. Take earplugs if this might be a problem. Other than that - it's top class. The bus is currently route e16 from right outside the gate. every 30 min Mon-Fri, hourly at weekends, either 1hr15 or 1hr30 journey respectively and about 5€40 single fare.
