Dormir acá fue una de las mejores decisione. Armamos carpa muy cerquita del mar y descansamos con su sonido como bebes. Las instalaciones están muy bien. Don Mario es un adulto mayor que cuida hasta el mínimo detalle de tu estadía. Buenos baños, buenas duchas, buen quincho donde podes cocinar con gas o llevar tu propia cocina. Cobra el Gas diario $1000 chilenos. Te ofrece colchón. Hay varias cosas que no se pueden hacer como jugar al fútbol, poner música, entre otras por lo que hace al camping más tranquilo aún. Punto en contra: no hay agua caliente y la fría es realmente fría. RECOMIENDO

Gated with dogs. We waited until Don Mario showed up then went in. Dogs were friendly. We had somehow forgotten our tent poles and Mario was really helpful, providing us with string, a mattress and plastic sheeting. He also said if it rained too hard overnight we could sleep in the communal kitchen/dining area which he would leave unlocked. Really kind of him.
Campsite has access to the beach, you just need a key for the door. Very wavey and misty beach, but if you go to the right until the end there are some rocks to provide a bit of safety if you want a dip like we did. Clean toilets, well stocked kitchen, clean water. Great stay, 10,000 pesos total for one night. You can charge phone in the kitchen area if you need.

Just beautiful, and just a short walk (or shorter drive) from the lovely Area Protegida Curinanco. It’s just back from the beach, amongst trees (and a small stream). We paid 8000 for two people. Don Mario is really friendly and pulls out some useful words of English if needed. He keeps the place

Nice place and lovely owner. Close to the beach, lots of trees and shade. Asked for 4000p for each person (we’re 2, with a tent and a car), shower included (it’s 1000p the shower if you are not staying). We didn’t stay in the end because we slept on the Pilolcura beach, but this camping is definitely worth the price.

We stayed there for 4 days. The owner was very friendly and helpful to create our rolling cabaña. The shower is cold, but in summertime it's doesn't matter. We paid 6000 for 2 and 500 extra for shower. He is a really creative person and built some little fancy things by himself. It's also possible to use the kitchen with a fridge, oven and some more in the common area. You have also an own acess to the wonderful beach which is near the cape. The bath and everything was clean. You've got tables, firepits and plenty of seats, also in the shade. One of our best campground in Chile. Even, when he is not around, open the gate and go in. At least he will arrive in the evening.
