Beautiful pitches, great views of the sea from almost everywhere, very well-kept sanitary facilities, possibility to visit the small islands with the SUB, quiet, cozy atmosphere
Negativa
Rocky bathing entrances, no pebble beach to lie down on, no good bus connection to Pula, Medulin etc.
Quiet, well-kept camping site
Lovely campsite for relaxing, swimming, snorkeling and enjoying the sea view. We can't judge the restaurants, we didn't visit them. Supermarket okay.

As we hadn't booked, the very nice lady at reception gave us a map of the pitches on which she had marked the free pitches. We opted for a pitch right by the sea under the pine trees, so always in the shade. The pitches in the main part of the campsite are a bit chaotic, i.e. not parceled out and partly sloping, with roots and trees. Most of the pitches have electricity, some also have water. Dogs must be kept on a lead and you are supposed to remove large items, which is a matter of course for us, and we didn't see anything to the contrary. There are no designated dog-walking routes, but in my opinion this is not a problem. There is probably also a dog beach, but we didn't go there. The supermarket on site is quite expensive, but there were always enough bread rolls in the morning. 2 restaurants, of which we only had pizza in the lower restaurant. The prices were fine and good. There are a total of 4 sanitary buildings. The sanitary facilities down by the sea really leave a lot to be desired, but a little further up there is a fairly new, nice sanitary facility. We didn't use the others. The campsite is located in a bay with lots of boat traffic, and many yachts come through or anchor here. So there's always something to see, you just have to be a bit careful when swimming or SUPing. There are 3 small islands offshore, the sea is a dream - just like Croatia. There is also a diving center and a rental shop for boats, SUPs and bikes. We were only there for 4 days and didn't explore the area any further, we just wanted to relax and look out to sea and enjoy the warm evenings and nights ( we happened to catch a "mini disco" in the evening, otherwise no entertainment). This campsite is definitely very suitable for this. We didn't find it noisy at all down by the sea, at any time of day or night. We cannot judge the noise level inside the campsite or further up. We will definitely be back

Waiting times for showers. There are too few showers for the size of the site, but you have time on vacation, don't you? ;-) The prices in the supermarket are sometimes really high (butter for €4.50) and then there's the audacity to simply round up at the checkout...
Very nice spontaneous vacation

Mrs. Laura at the reception is excellent. She speaks perfect German and is very, very helpful. A big praise for her !!!
Negativa
Water supply on the meadow Pitch numbers 500-5. It would be desirable to have two or three water sources further down towards the sea.
Stay August 2023
Hello
I must once again praise Laura at reception, she is very helpful and speaks very good German.

We liked it there very much, we were right by the sea.

What we would like to see would be two or three taps on pitches 500-5... so that you don't have to carry the water so far. After all, you pay accordingly in the front row.

beautifully situated site in a picturesque bay with lots of trees
Negativa
Enormous boat traffic, much too close, noise from the boats and campers; quiet at night ... Hedges between the most expensive pitches too low, do not separate
So close to the sky and the sea
A beautifully situated site with lots of trees, sloping down into a picturesque bay with offshore islands, a fantastic view and sunset. the sea and the sky always in view. nature very close. A rocky beach to my taste. I spend my time swimming a lot, reading, frying fish and drinking wine - and looking... at the sea; with excursions, e.g. to Kamenjak. I have been coming to Indije once a year for at least 2 weeks at the beginning of July for 20 years and I really enjoy being here, even though "the tourist" has not changed for the better.
The pitches vary in size, are often shady and have electricity nearby. The bathrooms are well equipped and always clean. There are sports facilities and a dog area. 1 restaurant and a pizzeria.

The pitch is right on the water with a great view of the islands and the sea.

A little more entertainment/music in the evening at the restaurants would be nice.
Top vacation right by the sea
We were there for the 5th time during the summer vacation and think it's brilliant to be able to stand right on the water. The view is fantastic and unobstructed. The children were often out playing soccer or watching the children's entertainment in the evenings.
The wash houses are clean and well maintained....
A lot has been modernized in the last 2 years. First the wash house 2 and last year new pitches were built. We are already looking forward to next year and are excited to see what will be different/new. The vacation with 4 families is already booked.

Sanitary building in the center of the square closed. Restaurant numbers 1 and 2 also closed. Water supply not available. Approx. 100 meters with the watering can
Why book
The reserved space was still booked and occupied by others. This was not the first time. Other campers also confirmed this to us.

On the water, very close to nature. Sanitary facilities new and old, but well maintained.

Orga is terrible, despite booking and reservation our pitch (Superior) was not reserved for us. Alternatively, I was asked to pitch my 7-meter motorhome on the campsite. Only half of the 90-120 square meters indicated were correct. The superior pitch we looked for ourselves one day later only had 60 square meters. Unfriendly, incompetent and mafia-like staff. Wanted 100 euros extra.
Great place, tourist rip-off
Beautiful campsite that was run down by unprofessional reception staff. My booking/reservation (7 meter motorhome) was either ignored or forgotten. On the day of arrival there was no pitch reserved for me. The alternative offered was very steep, stony and 20 square meters large/small. We spent the first... night between parked vehicles. On the 2nd day someone was supposed to come and take care of the problem. Of course no one came. So we looked for a place ourselves. On the 4th day, the big surprise: you can't stay here until the end. The pitch would be reserved. You can't reserve a place here directly! The space would be reserved for 100 euros. Very strange😂 Do they want extra money? I'm staying here now. Until the bitter end. Maybe someone with a bit of knowledge and professionalism will come along after all 👍🏻

Nice and quiet place with spacious land by the water, always clean sanitary facilities. Friendly staff who always try to accommodate you.
Kids enjoyed the opposite islands where there are pebble and sand beaches which are easily accessible by paddleboard. We will definitely be back here again.

Location on the square
Negativa
Sanitary too long distances for the "main location" by the sea Very basic sanitary facilities Outdated and dilapidated infrastructure Team not very motivated Too expensive for what is on offer
Beautifully situated place, unfortunately getting on in years
The campsite is located on a hilly peninsula and belongs to the municipality of Banjole. Unfortunately, there is little on offer in the immediate vicinity, Banjole itself does not have an old town, as is known from many locations in Croatia, but is merely a collection of residential buildings.
The nearest... "Croatian" town is Premantura or Medulin, approx. 8 km-10 km away.
There are many mobile homes on the site and permanent huts in the northern part.
The actual vacation pitches are in the south. They are arranged in terraces, the first row by the sea has great pitches, not very large, but only 10 m to the sea (watch out for the steps!). There are 3 islands 200 m away.
There are 4 wash houses (one was closed due to corona), unfortunately far too far away from the first row. It would have been better to build a sanitary building here instead of a large shower and water facility. The sanitary facilities are simple and only meet basic requirements. The cleanliness was ok so far.
There are 2 restaurants and a supermarket as well as a diving center and a boat/SUP rental.
Unfortunately, the team was not very motivated, they did their job, but passion is different.
The place clearly lives from its location, especially the south side with the sea places is very beautiful.
The rest of the infrastructure is clearly getting on in years. Some of the paths are so undercut by roots that only a slow walking pace will prevent the caravan from falling apart (be careful when cycling!). The children's playground is actually unusable, simple and unimaginative.
There is hardly any lighting at night, only a few lights illuminate the paths, clearly not enough.
Unfortunately, you can tell that the site was built back in the Yugoslavian era and hardly any investment has been made since then. The operator group tends to act according to the motto "pull out and invest nothing". It's a shame, as the site was simply too expensive, at least in the high season.

Quiet - depending on location, dog-friendly!
Recommended with a few sticking points
Short version: Clean, pitches can be reserved specifically, various locations (stones, shade, sloping, blazing sun), good facilities, adequate catering, okay for dogs. Long version: First time here this year (last week of August - 1st week of September). Overall impression good. Very large site with... a lot of pitches in a wide variety of locations and conditions. This is also reflected in the price based on the categorization of the pitches. From the blazing sun at the very front by the water to the stone desert, where trees provide shade all day long. The slope of the entire site plays a significant role. The local supply is very good, the supermarket covers the daily needs sufficiently, the gastronomy on and around the site - even up to 30 minutes walk in the evening - leave plenty of choice. But that's it for the infrastructure. But that's all you need if you want to relax, swim and simply enjoy camping. We brought our dog with us.... basically no problem. There is a section of the beach for dogs. And that brings me to the negatives: The dog section isn't labeled, so every full-on dog fils you because he thinks dogs aren't allowed here, he's the crown of creation and dogs are the last dirt. That puts you at the top of my list.....am Watschenbaum. You have to take care of your own poop bags, there are a few stands and collection bins for animal waste, but ...... therefore: take it with you! Absolutely! Many dear fellow dog owners make sure that our reputation is pretty much dragged through the dog dirt because they are too stupid or too lazy to take the bag with them when they go for a walk. But when it comes to shithouse etiquette, I am always amazed at the development of our high culture. Peeing next to it still falls under the category of "inconspicuous". Kudos to the ladies who ensure the cleanliness of the three sanitary facilities from 06:30 to around 22:00!!!!!!!! There's nothing to complain about. However, it should be noted that in the high season, space around the loo can get pretty tight. And there's no advance ticket sales. What really annoyed me when I arrived was the fact that the pitch I had reserved months in advance on the dog beach (without a specific pitch number) was not available because it was either spontaneously booked or already reserved (so it is possible)... so I had to move to another area, but it's still ok. I just walk five minutes to the coyote pool. There's a good chance we'll be back.

Friendliness and cleanliness throughout the facility.

Unfortunately after rain the pitch is in a bad condition, difficulties to leave the pitch. Sand would be helpful...
Great campsite
The toilets and showers in House 3 seem a little undersized to me personally. 4 instead of 2 toilets and two more shower cubicles would be ideal. Sanitary facilities were always in a very clean condition, keep it up.

Sanitary building too small for the amount of guests in the area.
Nice place with a big but
It was our first time on this pitch, actually very nice but a big BUT: we were standing on the pitch. P 504 - 546, with premium pitches we expect more than just 2 showers and toilets in the sanitary building. Everyone who comes from the beach uses these due to the lack of showers on the beach. Even guests... from the mobile homes go there to shower and use the toilet, for whatever reason. And the fact that the stairs are swept all day does not remove cobwebs etc. in the rooms. Shower heads defective and not repaired in three weeks. A rogue who thinks evil of it, but during an inspection of the place, the cleaner was suddenly put into operation, but only for 10 minutes...! But what bothered us the most were the dogs of the other guests. No, we are not dog haters, we have 2 ourselves. Dogs are not kept on a lead, do their business wherever they want, run around the site, play ball over several pitches although they are only visiting and are even taken into the shower, nobody says anything, no control. We are used to other things in Croatia at this price level. The beach with gravel and stone slabs is normal in this country, and it's easy to deal with. We certainly won't be coming here again.

Unfortunately very disappointed this time!
We (family with dog, two children 15/8) were for the 2nd time on this campsite and this time rather disappointed. Very poor value for money. 7 days at the end of August/beginning of Sept incl. tax and air conditioning 1000 euros!!! Cleanliness of the mobile home leaves a lot to be desired. (Bathroom ok, kitchen bad). Beds extremely worn out! With dog very nice facility. Nice beach. Leisure facilities in the area good.
