Perched above the western shore of Lake Garda, Camping Eden makes a compelling base for a holiday where Italian lake life comes with a little extra sparkle. Set among greenery in San Felice del Benaco, this four-star resort combines panoramic lake views with the easy-going pleasures of a classic family campsite. The water is never far away, while the surrounding landscape invites leisurely days of exploring, cycling and lakeside wandering.
Families have plenty to keep them occupied without needing to leave the resort. Two swimming-pool areas bring together slides, water attractions and spaces for younger children, while the private lakeside beach offers a more tranquil alternative, complete with a pontoon for those irresistible afternoon dips. Children can burn off energy in the playgrounds, while sports facilities add tennis, volleyball and basketball to the holiday menu.
Come evening, the mood shifts effortlessly from poolside to aperitivo. The restaurant, pizzeria and bar serve everything from Italian favourites and pizza to drinks and cocktails, with the lake providing a particularly attractive backdrop.
The pool scene is particularly appealing to families. There is an adult swimming pool for proper cooling-off and a children's area with slides, water sprays and splash-play fun. Lifeguards supervise the pool area during opening hours, while generous green spaces provide places to relax between swims.
You also have the essentials onsite: restaurant with panoramic terrace, pizzeria, bar, minimarket, playground, games room, TV room and multi-purpose sports facilities, including tennis, football and volleyball. Entertainment and children's activities add another layer during the main summer season.
Who will enjoy it most? Families with children from toddlers through primary-school age are particularly well matched, thanks to the pools, slides, playground, lake and relaxed family atmosphere. Teenagers have plenty to do too, especially if they enjoy sport and watersports.
And the cleverest part? Salò, San Felice, Gardone Riviera, Manerba and the lake's islands are nearby, while Gardaland and other major family attractions make excellent day trips. Lake holiday, Italian culture or theme-park adventure? Eden lets you mix the three.

Click to enlargeThe surroundings
Camping Eden occupies a wonderfully elevated position above the western shore of Lake Garda, in Portese, part of San Felice del Benaco. Within 15 kilometres, the scenery shifts beautifully between olive groves, vineyards, wooded hills, rocky promontories and the sparkling lake. The nearby Valtenesi countryside is distinctly rural, with agricultural lanes and rolling morainic hills, while Salò brings elegant lakeside promenades, cafés and boutiques. Manerba adds dramatic Rocca di Manerba and natural landscapes, while Gardone Riviera combines gardens, historic villas and the Vittoriale. Across the lake, mountain scenery provides an impressive backdrop, giving this corner of Garda a sophisticated mixture of nature, villages and lakeside life.

Pets

Cars and parking
Camping Eden is a terraced, relatively hilly campsite, so some areas involve noticeable slopes. Some smaller internal routes and pitch areas have gravel or earth surfaces, so comfortable footwear can be useful when walking around with children.
One car parking space is generally available per accommodation. If you need additional parking, extra spaces may be available subject to availability and, in some cases, an additional charge. There is also a car park approximately 100 metres away on Via Preone 6, with free parking from 20:00–08:00.
The vehicle gate closes at around 23:00 and reopens at 06:00. You can still enter and leave the campsite on foot during these quieter night-time hours.

The Happy Camp Reception and Park Managers welcome you for check-in and key collection between 16:00 and 19:00, and help with any request. Check-out is by 10:00. Travelling light?

The property is set on a hill and covers a very large area. Despite the numerous routers, signal quality and coverage may vary depending on the location.

Tip from our team
My first tip is simple: make the lake part of the holiday, not merely the view. Eden's elevated position gives you that gorgeous panorama, but the private lakeside area is reached below the main resort, so families with very young children may appreciate having a pool day when they want everything close at hand. The lake itself adds a completely different swimming experience, with a diving platform and direct water access. The resort is terraced and hilly, so families with toddlers or pushchairs should ask for an accommodation location that minimises unnecessary climbing. A lake-view mobile home or chalet is particularly worthwhile if scenery matters to you; the elevated position is one of Eden's defining features. For touring families, the pitches are in the lower section and are arranged on terraces, with grass and gravel surfaces. Bring suitable footwear and allow a little extra time when moving between the different levels. If you are travelling with a dog, check the accommodation category before booking. The campsite is pet-friendly, but pets are not accepted in the standard mobile homes. Dogs are permitted on pitches and in the designated Chalet Marty and Chalet Giglio accommodation, subject to the campsite's rules and prior agreement. For sightseeing, use the campsite's reception as your local information desk. Boat excursions, Garda towns and cultural attractions are all close enough to create wonderfully varied days without spending the entire holiday in the car. And one final tip: save Salò for an evening. The lakeside promenade, restaurants and atmospheric old streets make a particularly enjoyable outing after a day beside the pool.

Not recommended.“The only positive note at this campsite is the lake view. For the rest, I do not recommend it; the place is not suitable for people with mobility issues, and the small houses do not have a TV provided. We stayed in a deluxe apartment.”

terrible“I would never return, let's start from the arrival, dirty little house, clothes inside the closet!! I ask, therefore they weren't even cleaned or sanitized, dirty chairs, the staff member's answer was no, they are damaged!!!! with what I paid I expected a splendid little house, air conditioning for a fee!!!!!!! a little house for six people with one frying pan, mismatched cutlery, you can't take a shower, it's either scalding or cold (we brought it to the attention of the reception) no answer, who knows.... bad experience and spent so much”
silvanapJ8762MO
Great for relaxing, less so for visiting the lake.“We stayed here for 6 nights. The campsite has only one dining area that serves as a restaurant, pizzeria, and bar adjacent to two of the three pools and the reception, a mini market poorly stocked for early childhood (for example, both regular and swim diapers were missing), another bar adjacent to the third pool, two playgrounds for children, and all the pools have slides for both adults and children. Parking situation is a bit chaotic as the mobile homes do not have assigned spots but are "first come, first served"; in fact, we found ourselves a couple of times having to park far from our mobile home and carry children, strollers, and bags on foot. The campsite is located on a hill; in fact, if you end up like us, that is, in the middle, it is hard to go up and down to reach the market, the reception, and the pools. There is no shuttle service to take people from one side of the campsite to the other. It is important to know that the campsite has a gate that remains closed to cars from 11 PM to 6 AM; not knowing this, we were stuck outside when returning from Gardaland after midnight. This is something that the reception should reiterate upon arrival because not everyone notices the sign posted on the gate, which is hard to see when it is open during the day. Nice campsite but far from all the main attractions of Lake Garda; to visit Peschiera or Limone sul Garda or Gardaland, you have to drive at least 40 minutes. Great for a relaxing vacation to stay there and not move around the whole lakefront, but if you want to visit everything, I do not recommend it. A plus point is the supermarkets in the area like Conad and Eurospin, less than 10 minutes away by car. The mobile home was comfortable all in all; there were 5 adults and 2 children, and it has two bathrooms, one with only a toilet and one with only a shower and sink. 3 bedrooms, of which 1 is a double and 2 have 2 single beds. Air conditioning is paid based on consumption, by recharging a card that you get at the reception. The kitchen has the bare essentials (a colander is missing). All in all, it was a positive experience.”
