Camping Tamaro Resort

Well organized camping site. Toilets are clean and the staff are friendly and efficient. Great view of Lake Maggiore

Back again at this tranquil well organised 5 star resort. An ideal base for hikers and cyclist both mountain and road |Terrific scenery and Mediterranean climate. |Don't be put off if web site has no English. If you email then they couldn't be more helpful. |Facilities excellent and good variety of pitch sizes sunny and shaded. Never on top of each other. Good tourist centre in lacarno using free boat to get there with plenty of English books. |An excellent site in a picture postcard setting.

Staying here for a few days at the end of our holiday. It was a good place with good facilities. The location is nice and it's in front of the lake. We stayed at the camp site and were very fortunate that there was still space available. The receptionist was friendly and helpful. The price for the tent was included for the train and bus ticket. Recommended 👍

Camping itself is very neat, close to the lake, and the pitches are nice. Restaurant and little shop are useful. Everything of this camping is nice, but there was one large drawback. We had a small caravan, and a small tent on one pitch. They eventually counted the tent as an extra pitch and we had to pay 27 chf a day extra for that tent. This is very unfair, as people with large caravans, but just as many people do not have to pay this extra fee. The rule exists because of regional laws, but during booking, we told beforehand that we had a tent and caravan, and three adults. Only when checking out, we heard about this rule. Other than this stupid rule, the camping is a recommendation.

for 50 euro a night for a tent pitch in the middle of a playground and next to a road is quite ridiculous. when i complained the most they could do was offer me to move 5 metres away from the playground. wouldn't offer me a discount. i know switzerland is expensive but 50 euro per person per night for a 2m squared piece of grass in the playground is a joke.

Very clean, very safe, great calm family atmosphere. The beach and lido are fantastic to have just meters away from the pitch, and the shop and restaurant are very good quality. Cleanest bathroom and washing facilities!

Beautiful location, we were on a lakeside prestige1 pitch, and I will forever miss waking up to that view with fresh croissants and a coffee! We swam daily in the lake and the Ticino pass’s were a nice touch as we could get the ferries and buses for free to travel around! So travelled to Locarno, Ascona and brissago. We also drove to ponte dei salti in Verzasca valley (do not miss it as so very pretty for a picnic and swim) and also the cable cars at monte tamaro with the toboggan run which is great fun! The only issues we had were that we struggled terribly to set up a tankr account to enable us to rent out the kayaks and paddle boards which was a shame as we were looking forward to doing these the most. After trying 3 days in a row we ended up giving up and doing without! So if you already have your own it would be worth taking them. There was also a very serious and unwelcoming lady on reception which I had to deal with on arrival who was rather abrupt and looked at me like I’d just insulted her mum 🤣🙈🤷‍♀️ after a long drive up from Italy it wasn’t exactly the welcome I was hoping for! A smile goes a long way!!!!! Other than the lady in question, everyone else in the shop and restaurant were super helpful and friendly!

If you adjust your expectations and understand that this is a restaurant in the middle of a campsite, you’ll be fine. If you want a good food and good service then you better go to Locarno. However if you just want to grab a pizza and then walk 2 minutes back to your tent, this restaurant will be just fine.
