Frequently asked questions

Why does a campsite publish comparisons with other campsites?
Because choosing a campsite on the French Riviera isn’t easy: the addresses are very different, from the lively resort to the nature campsite. Rather than only praising our own strengths, we honestly compare Au Paradis des Campeurs with the campsites of the neighbouring Gulf of Saint-Tropez, so you can find the one that suits your stay — even if it isn’t always ours.
Which campsites do you compare?
Campsites in the Gulf of Saint-Tropez and nearby (Port-Grimaud, Les Issambres, Fréjus, Saint-Raphaël). The list grows season after season; the first comparison pits Au Paradis des Campeurs against Les Prairies de la Mer, in Port-Grimaud.
Are your comparisons really objective?
We rely on verifiable information (official websites, maps, guest reviews) and we never publish fixed prices: rates change, so we link to the official price lists. The goal is to help you make an informed decision, not to disparage anyone.
