Campgrounds in the Faroe Islands

"What was most striking was the communal spirit which was celebrated among the guests. You're not just staying in your hut, you are having breakfast and dinner together and exchange experiences. The octopus dish for dinner was fantastic. Coffee is readily available. Water, beer, and soft drinks for sale at fair prices. While the owner was away, the temporary host did a great job managing and making everyone feel included and informed. There is a viewing platform of the Pico. The beach is crossed by a river from where you also have a great vantage point. Needs to be low tide to cross. Love the outdoor showers. Thanks to solar panels, there is always electricity. Good distance to Porto Alegre for visiting Ilhéu das Rolas as a day trip. They can arrange for a hike to the base of the Pico."

For a couple like us, there is only the choice between a two person hut without attached bathroom or a four person hut with. We really wanted to have an attached toilet, so we had to book a four person hut which is of course quite more expensive. It would have been ideal to have a two person hut, small is OK, but with attached toilet. Shower wouldn't even be necessary, because we preferred the outdoor showers. Just a toilet and small sink would be enough. There is internet, but it's less reliable than other reviewers painted it to be. It's one small pocket router for the whole premise. During the day it was in the main hut and at night in guest huts, but never close enough to our hut. Still for São Tomé and far away from any towns, it was quite decent.

"This is a campground with caravans, yurts, and rooms in the village of Bashi. There is excellent access to the Altyn-Emel ranger station to buy park permits and to the roads leading to the Altyn-Emel national park sites. We really liked the evening communal dinners with local traditional food. It was fun meeting the other campers. Hakim was an exceptional host - he is energetic, cheerful, and always available to answer questions. The brand new, modern restrooms and showers were exceptionally clean and functional with lots of hot water."

"Malý rodinný kemp. Majitel příjemný, ochotný. Večer posezení u pivka, kdo chtěl, tak i s večeří. Bazén k dispozici večer i ráno. Naprostý klid a uvolnění. Spali jsme ve svém autě. K snídani vejce, uzeniny, sýr, rajče.. vše domácí a naprosto úžasná švestková marmeláda."

Záchody a sprchy v kabinkách vedle sebe, ale čisté.

"The villa setup, the swimming pools (especially for our daughters), being 7 to 10 minutes walk from the beach and the shops, but especially the owners (Mr. & Mrs. Moorghen). They are exceptional hosts and everything in their bungalow is touched with thoughtfulness. Thank you so much for your kindness and hospitality. In essence with a family of 8, the four room villa was ideal and cosy. A home away from home comfy feel."

I asked my daughters. One thing they did not like... Time to go back home. 😛

"Staying in the bush camp has been an incredible experience. I particularly liked that architecture and interior are made from locally available and eco-friendly material, combined with a good sense for design. Staff has been supper attentive, fulfilling any wish you might have."

"Loved staying in the simple, clean bungalow overlooking the sea, surrounded by bougainvillea and various friendly creatures (iguanas, salamanders, birds, etc.). Coral was SO incredibly responsive and helpful with everything from how to book a special dinner at Heidi's restaurant (incredible view and food!) to giving us a ride out to explore the cool fort. Thanks for a beautiful stay!"

It was really fun meeting people from all over the US in the communal kitchen. But as is to be expected, sound carries at any campground and not everyone is on the same sleep schedule, so bring earplugs!

"Bell tent was fab, better than expected with comfy, warm space, convenient plugs even! Felt more premium than I think we paid! Fantastic little close kitchen separate from main campsite was a great touch with awesome bbq facilities, stargazing, short walk from lakefront plus a great sauna much better than the queenstown one. Great to see kids having fun all over the site. Will definitely be back."

Closest toilet was portaloo and bit difficult to acces in dark sometimes, not my favourite, you can walk back to main site area but when it's middle of night you go to the closest, perhaps they will upgrade this but worth knowing.

"This accomodation had everything I needed, and was much nicer than anticipated! The kitchen was fully equiped, and there's a washing machine! The room was extremely clean as well."

"Beautiful location truly felt like a camping experience with great showering/ toileting facilities. The private beach access was lovely, if you wanted to stay nearby instead of making the trek to Port Barton beach."

The roads were rough and hard to access and required a tuk tuk or motorbike but worth it for the mountain views and private little oasis away from the main area.

"Поддържано място, спокойно, със страхотен плаж! Бяхме на каравана, много ни хареса! В ресторанта на плажа хапнахме прясна рибка!"

Единственото неудобство ако си на каравана или палатка са общите бани и тоалетни, но бяха чисти и бяха само за гости на къмпинга! Така, че отзива не е негативен! Разбира се, предлагат се и студия със соствен санитарен възел!

"Beautiful camping site with lots of trees that provide shade during the day, lovely little pool to keep cool and very good facilities. I especially enjoyed the outside showers, it was a nice experience."

Nothing to add here.

"Staff are helpful, friendly, and accommodating. Food servings are in large portion that I struggle to finish it."

The shower exhaust fan was weak, so after a hot shower there will be water condensation everywhere in the bathroom.

"Easily accessible at the center of town, close to bus stops. The host provided a lot of amenities, such as bathroom items and some snacks and water to ease a late arrival. Spacious main room, a hallway with clothes hanger and mirror, and a spacious bathroom with shower, tub, and washer."

"Amazing location with beautiful views and tranquil surroundings. Wonderful staff; really attentive and courteous. They were even happy to prepare a very early breakfast for me, before I hit the road. A rustic vibe - and a fan was provided to keep me cool during the night. If you're travelling by motorbike, driving north a ways from the hotel is an amazing experience too - and a change of pace from the highway."

Slightly tough to actually find the place, as the sign was partially hidden by grass. (But the remote location could also be seen as a plus?) Also, the staff didn't appear to have been informed about my booking, so they seemed somewhat surprised by my arrival? (But they more than made up for that with a quick reaction and delightfully attentive service.)

"Total netter Campingplatzbetreiber,zum Ausprobieren war es super,jederzeit wieder"

Hatten im verpachteten Bistro nicht die Zufriedenheit, möchte nicht näher eingehen, habe darüber mit Campingplatzwart gesprochen

"Great place to stay, friendly and helpful staff, Ghada was very nice and attentive, thank you for the hospitality."

"location very convenient. can you prepare meal or used at affordable restaurant at city 600 metres away."

The place is convenient to every type of visitors.

"What I liked was the professionalism displayed during my stay."

The bed was too firm but I was able to get rest.

"I really liked the eco conscious focus of this hostel, you could tell right away they are mindful about being resourceful. They're also the most affordable hostel in Bocas that I could find, if you're investment focus is purely price. I do feel that they could work on answering phone calls, doorbell rings/knocks, whatsapp text alittle more efficiently and timely. Just so you're not waiting outside for 25 minutes like I did, lol."

Already stated that in what I liked, (the last 2 sentences).

"The property was well maintained and a bit off the beaten path."
