Camping Sandaya Côte de Nacre *****

Smashing site with superb facilities, great pitches and friendly staff, especially Lee who definitely went above and beyond to ensure his customers were happy. Only negative was that there was a problem with hot water in the men’s showers, which meant two luke warm showers for me while my wife enjoyed hot showers. Will definitely return as it was well located for Normandy beaches and museums.

Lives up to its 5* billing. There wasn’t a huge choice of emplacements as many seemed to be pre-booked, but I chose one which had water, drainage and its own bbq. All pitches are a generous size. The bar/restaurant/ takeaway had helpful staff - and food is cooked to order so several steps up from fast food.
Although the site brochure says dogs are not allowed on the beach, the lady at tourist info said it’s ok so long as they are outside of the central swimming areas.

Good site to get to after an evening arrival at Caen on the ferry. Very commercial and all facilities in good condition.

Used to be a better site than now, suffering from a lack of maintenance. Grass and trees are overgrown. There are two toilet blocks, one has been closed from our arrival the other only has four mens cubicles for the entire campsite. The lights in the remaining toilet are switched off at night,not very convenient. We have been bringing our family here for more than ten years, but will look elsewhere in future. Very disappointing

Super gepflegter Platz. Strand mit dem Fahrad und zu Fuß gut zu erreichen. Großer Supermarkt 4 km. Abends Entertainment bis ca. 22 Uhr. Teilweise deutlich am Platz zu hören. Nachts ruhig. Keine Ein- und Ausgangskontrolle.

A very nice family campsite with some extras, such as sauna and massage facilities. Local seafront very walkable and some great restaurants nearby, some quite fun such as Charleston. Toilets and showers were immaculate Bar is fun and entertainer tried really hard with uninterested audience. Only bit that annoyed was the silly rule about anything other than French type 'tight' swim trunks not allowed in the pool. I am 54yrs old and swim well. I was wearing short striped swim shorts and was asked to leave. No problem, I obey rules, but I did ask why and was told that loose shirts could be used for football and so could get sweaty! I was unaware of a football ban on tighter shirts! The inside pool was full of kids, doing what they do in pools. Come on be sensible!

Impressive site, well maintained and staffed with a good vibe.
New toilet block with good facilities.
Outdoor pools quite cool, indoor warmer.
Easy walk to nearby village, which has a few facilities and long seafront.
Good kids play park.
Made for an enjoyable stay.

If a site is to be judged on it's sanitary facilities then this site thoroughly deserves it's 5 star rating, the facilities are second to none and indeed the site itself is also at a high standard. Mini-Market, swimming pools and Bar/Restaurant are very good. We only stayed one night whilst returning to Cherbourg but did avail of lovely cycleways and travelled to two D-Day Beaches which are easily accessible from the site. No hesitation in recommending this site.

This site is perfectly placed for the D-day beaches and surrounded by history, this being the reason for our visit. The site itself is well looked after although the emphasis is on rented accommodation, the staff are friendly and helpful, the toilet block's are very spacious and kept clean but are now in need of some maintenance as a lot of the lights are not working and some of the door locks are faulty. The music at the bar is turned up quite loud but does end at a sensible time, don't expect peaceful evenings or you will be disappointed. Not really our sort of site but ideally placed for our need's at the time.
