Nice stay
Review of the campsite
The did we nice in the restaurants and the activities were good. The pools are lovely and the shows are very good
There is basically nothing to do activity wise for kids under 6 and even 6 to 10 there is little to do as the activities are aimed at older kids.
The beds in the lodges are poor
Prices in the restaurants are pretty pricey for food and drink

Review of the campsite
So many things to love about la sirene definitely one of our favourite camping style holidays. The activities during the day for the kids is great and the pools are absolutely fantastic.
The shows are fantastic although they could include a bit more English (not fully) just so the majority of the audience (Irish)would understand a bit more. Other campsites used their own language and English and we found it much more enjoyable to watch. Also could do a couple more interactive nights like the bingo nights as kids preferred it to shows even though the quality of the shows is like nothing else we've seen.
On our first night when we arrived we are in bamboo and I was SO disappointed as the food was cold and just not good, if you improved restaurants you would be world class site.

Really enjoyed our stay.
Our mobile wasn't cleaned properly. Tea stains on the kitchen sink, toilets not cleaner properly. Empty bottles left in shower. Sink drains were very dirty and hadn't been cleaned. There was a smell out of the shower drains.

The lodges are fine with nice decking, bathrooms and appliances.
The beds though are pretty uncomfortable and the walls are paper thin meaning when it was stormy i could barely sleep

Did the job, was clean and had everything it needed. Would prefer sth larger but I believe we booked late and this is an option just we missed it.
The road crossing between l' hippocamp and La sirene. Thought I'd be able to allow children to go alone but was quite a busy road. Could do with traffic lights. Food - could definitely be better. Pizzeria was the best food and was ok value expect the chips they were very dear for frozen chips.

Our mobile wasn't cleaned properly. Tea stains on the kitchen sink, toilets not cleaner properly. Empty bottles left in shower. Sink drains were very dirty and hadn't been cleaned. There was a smell out of the shower drains.
Accomodation was basic. No channels on the TV. Last year we had an airfryer but nothing this year. We paid €80 for cleaning at the end of our stay which was very expensive as it would not have been cleaned to our standards when we arrived.
Waited for the man to vhevk the mobile to check that all was OK. Found his manner very abrupt and rude. Understand he is older but felt there was no need .

Review of the campsite
Campsite is excellent. I like how compact it is and the access to each campsite is easy. Pool area is fantastic.On arrival the accomodation could have been cleaner. The fridge was covered in black mould. We had a problem with ants also. The sun beds were covered in bird poo
Accommodation could be cleaner
Toilets poolside were really unpleasant. They should be cleaned regulary. They smelled of urine. In my week there I never saw them being cleaned

June 2026 in Hippocampe
Review of the campsite
We loved our accommodation, the waterslides and pools, open areas around pool complex with plenty of room for everyone without feeling crowded. Bakery was absolutely fabulous and and onsite shop was great. Take away was good but very expensive.
Onsite restaurants (especially the one in Hippocampe) were not great. We had nicer meals offsite.
Accommodation was excellent - lovely private area to sit and eat at the back of the lodge and plenty of room inside. Showers were excellent and it was great to have an ensuite off our bedroom. Kitchen was well stocked with utensils, plates, cutlery etc. Definitely the nicest camp accommodation we have stayed in.
No - we loved it

Shocking mobile covered in ants
Review of the campsite
We loved the facilities
We extended our stay, we moved mobile and the mobile we moved to was not cleaned properly. There were ants all over two of the beds, all over the kitchen counters and hundreds all up the walls in the kitchen
Our first mobile L05 was lovely and no issues for the week
We extended our stay and moved to 164 it was dirty, crawling with hundreds of ants and the shower room stank of a sewer smell

First Trip to La Sirene
Review of the campsite
Overall we had and excellent family holiday and will return. So many activities to choose from, evening entertainment was excellent and staff friendly.
Bamboo restaurant needs a new chef. Very disappointing first meal on our first night. Cold raw chicken nuggets that had to be returned and a handful of left over chips came with the burger meal. 4 prawns in the curry. Value and quality of meals very poor. Such a shame as its a lovely setting for a restaurant but we didn't return
Our first time here and would choose different accommodation next time. We like the area it was in and felt safe knowing there's no cars allowed.
The toilet next to the eating area with no sink in it to wash hands, and having to walk across and touch door handles etc with dirty hands is unhygienic. The table in the indoor setting area is far too big and had to climb over the chair to get on seat or pull out the table all the time. I think at least sheets should be supplied within the cost of the accommodation

Too expensive
Review of the campsite
The accommodation is nice, the water park and pools are great.
Some staff were very rude. The prices have increased hugely since last year. The food options are somewhat limited. For example the beach bar stops serving food for a good portion of the day and does not have pizza on the menu and you can't bring the pizza from the other restaurant into the beach bar. My children don't each nuggets or burgers and that's all that the beach bar offers.
Accommodation review - Sirène 3 Confort (3 bedrooms, 37m²) Terrace, air conditioning, TV
Clean, the bbq is good and the lounge chairs on the terrace.
No kettle, toaster or oven. These are basics.

Family holiday
Review of the campsite
The actitivies, pools and slides were enjoyed by all from the children to the adults. Hippocampes pedestrianised setup wad great for the kids ages 4, 6&8. The sites themselves were well maintained and the staff were lovely.
Accommodation review - Sirène 3 Confort (3 bedrooms, 37m²) Terrace, air conditioning, TV
The lodge was great
The king sized bed in the master bedroom was slightly too big for the room. While it would have been preferable to be able to fold the kitchen table away to make more space inside

Great Facilities
Review of the campsite
Very impressed with the entire site. Stayed on hippocampe side of the complex. Very safe for kids and adults alike. Loved the pool set up at both camps.
A lot of vehicles on the La Sirene camp. Felt a little uneasy with you kids moving around with the cars
Basic accommodation but it had everything we needed. We weren’t supplied with a kettle but we managed anyway. It was comfortable and clean and well laid out.
