If your family holiday wishlist reads pool, lake, pizza, gelato and something spectacular for the children, Camping Bella Italia has clearly been paying attention. This huge five-star resort sits directly on Lake Garda, around 1.5 km from the centre of Peschiera del Garda, surrounded by mature greenery and packed with facilities.
The headline act? A five-pool waterpark with slides, children's water play, geysers and a semi-Olympic pool. There is also Bel Beach, a small artificial sandy beach with sunbeds and parasols available for an extra charge, while the lakefront itself is a pebble beach.
Could the children stay entertained? Almost certainly. Mini clubs, playgrounds, sports, daytime activities, evening shows and a lively entertainment team create plenty of action. Adults have restaurants, bars, shops, cycling, lake excursions and that rather important possibility of sitting down with an aperitivo while somebody else entertains the youngsters.
Accommodation ranges from mobile homes and bungalows to apartments, while generous pitches accommodate tents, caravans and campers. The resort is particularly well suited to families with children from toddlers through teenagers, thanks to its extraordinary choice of pools, sports and organised activities.
And the location? Excellent. Gardaland, Caneva Aquapark, Movieland and Parco Natura Viva are all close, while Sirmione and Verona provide culture when the family has temporarily had enough of waterslides.
Recent customer experiences particularly praise the location, pools, staff, children's facilities and sheer amount of things to do. In other words: this is Lake Garda camping with very little danger of hearing the words “I’m bored”.

Camping Bella Italia occupies a prime position on the southern shore of Lake Garda, where manicured holiday greenery meets the blue expanse of Italy’s largest lake. Within 15 kilometres, the landscape alternates between lakeside beaches, vineyards, olive groves, rolling countryside and the waterways of the Mincio. Peschiera del Garda provides the urban and historic counterpoint, with its fortified old town, canals, harbour and riverside promenades. Across the lake, Monte Baldo rises dramatically into the distance. The surrounding area is dotted with picturesque villages, cycle paths, wine estates and family attractions, creating an unusually varied holiday playground.

Tip from our team
Camping Bella Italia is a large scale resort, so my first piece of specialist advice is simple: embrace the size rather than fighting it. The resort is effectively a holiday village with its own restaurants, supermarket, gelateria, sports facilities, entertainment, pools and lakefront. That means you can easily spend several days without getting back in the car. Families particularly appreciate the extraordinary choice of activities and the fact that the children can move from pool to playground to animation without anyone needing to organise a military operation. The waterpark is the star attraction, but do not overlook the little sandy Bel Beach — it is a useful change of scenery when the pools become busy. I would also recommend hiring bicycles if you enjoy exploring. The Mincio cycleway begins in Peschiera and offers an easy, mostly traffic-free route through the countryside. Borghetto sul Mincio makes an excellent cycling destination for families who want something more atmospheric than another pool afternoon. For Gardaland, book tickets ahead and go early. The same applies to the most popular lake excursions. If you have younger children, consider using the little tourist train into Peschiera rather than walking every time. Finally, allow at least one evening for Peschiera itself. The fortified old town, canals, harbour and lakeside restaurants give the holiday a distinctly Italian finale after a day of slides and splash battles.

Campsite with shortcomings“We were here as a couple for 1 week in mid-October. Positive: Good infrastructure on the site, very good location directly by the lake, not far from the old town. You can reach the city and the harbor on foot in approx. 10-15 min or by the bus that departs hourly directly in front of the site. The food in the restaurant was good and the portions, as well as the prices, were reasonable (2 people eating as well as 2 drinks 40€). Negative: As many have already mentioned, there is still a lot of room for improvement regarding hygiene in the sanitary facilities. It is "cleaned" more poorly than well around 7 a.m. in the morning. By 10 a.m., some toilets are already out of toilet paper. The fact that many toilets and showers, etc., are so dirty is primarily due to the guests who do not clean up after themselves. Also due to the many children and teenagers on the site. Of course, it is also due to the management of the site, which is not willing to bring about a change despite repeated criticism. Furthermore, it is very loud on the site; cars sometimes drive around the site until midnight. Empty bottles are thrown into the glass container at all hours of the night. Rules are only set up but not enforced. E-scooters are not allowed, yet children and teenagers are riding around the grounds in droves on their scooters. Mostly without insurance or a helmet (in Italy, helmets are mandatory). Conclusion: We will probably not go to this site again; the lack of hygiene is not acceptable to us for a 5-star site.”

Dreadful...avoid!“Very disappointed with this site, booked through Jet2 holidays. Unhelpful and snarky staff in the reception area. The wait time to check in was ridiculously lengthy. The bungalow accommodation was horrible, the single beds were barely wide enough for a small child and totally uncomfortable for an adult. Uncomfortable sofa in the main living area with no cushions. Disgusting shower tray in the bathroom. No electric kettle or toaster in the kitchen. We spoke to a mum who had to buy a toaster so that she could give her kids toast for breakfast. We we unfortunately there at the time of the big fire. The lack of communication from the site about the gas and water services being switched off was completely unacceptable and unprofessional. I would avoid this dump if you can and spend a bit more on somewhere decent. I would have given 0 stars as that's what it really deserves but you're only able to go as low as 1.”

Beautiful stay“Ignore the bad reviews and go with an open mind. Lovely place and everything you could want onsite, clean cabins and bedding, very close to the lake, Pesciera, ferries and train station. Peaceful despite being a busy site, and felt safe the whole time. Great supermarket and fruit and veg shop, ice creams, amazing takeaway and all reasonable . Can pop to Verona easily on the train or bus. Stunning scenery 😃”
