We visited this beach as tourists aware that it was a private beach
and paid 20 euros to rent a table, two loungers and a parasol for the day.
We were placed at table number 15.
During out stay we were robbed.
Our bank cards, 50 euros, 30 pounds in sterling and our two mobile phones were stolen = someone at the private beach opened our rucksack and stole our property causing us anguish and distress as were tourists stranded in Italy and knew no one.
We had saved hard for the trip over many years and it was destroyed that day in one go.
Thieves operate everywhere that much we know and thieves stole property belonging to us causing us to have to return to the United Kingdom that day.
I have carried out this review to warn others that we were targeted and put through this misery and I have a responsibility to notify the resort owners and those that visit it.
What a shame that low lives operate here.
A police report was made immediately.

The toilets and showers are clean, that's always a plus. The restaurant is good too, can't go wrong with some tasty grub. But oh my, the camp is packed in like sardines! I mean, I like sardines as much as the next guy, but come on, give a little breathing room. And to top it off, the price is a bit steep at 42 euros for a tent with no electricity.
