My experience at the camping was truly amazing, the property is large and quiet, a place where you can find peace, nature and where you take care of yourself. During my stay I learned a new skills like painting or decoration even though my role was that of yoga teacher. I used to teach one or two times for day. I settled immediately, also with the others volunteers and the people that work in there. If you like camping life, live in a caravan surrounded by nature and slow rhythm, don't hesitate! I recommend to rent a car for visiting the island. The prices are not cheap.

I really loved staying at the camping. The people are very friendly, welcoming and always there to help. Some nights they invited us to join them for bbq or to go out with them, which I really appreciate. I like how relaxed and flexible everything is as it truly taught me to slow down and go with the flow. Betty is so sweet and always helpful. The island is so beautiful but it's difficult to get around without car or scooters. It's a good place if you like beaches and hiking. I wished I'd learned some Italian before coming since it would have helped to better get to know the people.

My stay at the camping was my first trip and one of the most memorable experiences of my life. Betty is an amazing hostβ€”warm, kind, and always helpful. The work was relaxed and enjoyable, and Pem, Francesco, and Andrea made me feel welcome from the start, always ready to lend a hand. I was invited to family events and joined them on evening trips to nearby towns for delicious food. Despite limited public transport, it's easy to explore by walking, biking, or hitchhiking. If you want to truly experience Italian culture in a stunning setting, this is the place. I can't wait to return! Ciao :)

What a campsite and what a team! CDP has a genuinely uplifting vibe! Every day was different, the work was very fair and their contagious enthusiasm made it all more enjoyable. Betty, Pem and Andrea were incredibly warm and welcoming from the very start. Betty also kindly invited me to local celebrations and outings with her friends - very grateful for the chance to immerse myself in the local lifestyle! The island is stunning, with so much to explore. Even remote spots were easy to reach - hitchhiking around felt safe and turned into fun side quests. Grazie mille e a presto ragazzi! :)
