The campsite is really nice, and the staff is friendly. They were understanding and let us check-in and pay in the morning since we arrived late and the reception was closed. This is not something you see often in Switzerland. So if you're traveling and need a place to stay, even late at night, this is the perfect spot for you. Plus, they have clean showers included in the price.

The beach is conveniently located for Montreux and the nearby villages, making it a great spot for bird watching. The staff is extremely friendly and helpful. The shower block is decently clean, but the showers only provide lukewarm water at their best. Unfortunately, the dish wash area is not enjoyable to use due to the abundance of dead bugs on the surfaces. However, the beach offers stunning views of the lake and mountains.

If you happen to secure a front row spot (I made a reservation 6 months ahead), the sunset alone is absolutely worth a 5-star rating; it's truly priceless.

The owner of this beach is extremely unpleasant and raises prices without making any improvements to the services provided. Additionally, the rules outlined in the contract are unjust.
