We chose this location as a stopping off point for a few nights before moving on to Croatia. We had been without wifi for several days and needed to catch up, as well as doing laundry.
We arrived without a booking and were warmly welcomed by the receptionist who helpfully advised us on the various pitching areas. Our preference was for a quieter location and away from the zone reserved for dog owners. Our chosen pitch turned out to be ideal - fully serviced with water and waste points, some shade from established trees, flat (almost level after reversing in), designated parking area for the car in sight. The friendly owner on his bicycle then escorted us to the pitch.
The site is a typical beach side one with pitches crammed together - many with long-stay caravans - but we did not experience any rowdiness despite the close proximity of other campers. Might be different in July/August though. Not a site we would normally go for, but on this occasion it fitted the bill nicely.
Only ventured out once to take a look at Chioggia - nicknamed 'Little Venice'. It is possible to visit the bigger one via ferry but we did that the previous year.
This site is at the southern end of the Venice lagoon, not to be confused with another site also called Miramare, at Punta Sabbione, at the northern end.
It's a fairly large site stretching back a long way from its own private beach, which has sunbeds and umbrellas. As well as plenty of pitches for tourers there are some permanent pitches, bungalows and caravans for rent. The ground is level and sandy, with plenty of small trees. Pitches are not all that big - 60 to 80 square metres - but in May, when we stayed, the site was only half-full so it was possible to take up a bit of extra room. It's a family-run site and the staff were friendly and spoke English. Wifi is available for a small charge.
Despite the fact it wasn't high season, most of the facilities were up and running, which is quite unusual but very welcome. There is a lovely swimming pool with a good-sized children's pool, a small supermarket, a bar and large restaurant with lots of choice. In high season there is a programme of entertainment and children's activities.
There are three large sanitary blocks of a good standard. Some of the toilets are the 'squatting' type but there are plenty of normal ones, with magic seats which raise automatically after you've finished, and spray a 'sanitising vapour'! However there's no paper. There are special baby and child washing facilities as well. Plenty of washing-up sinks, though the water wasn't very hot,and the cold taps had red dots and the hot taps had blue dots! The 4-euro charge for a washing-machine token included a generous bag of soap powder.
The nearby town of Chioggia is a busy fishing port known as 'Little Venice', and like its namesake it has canals, bridges and interesting old buildings. The main, pedestrianised street is lined with bars and restaurants. From Chioggia there is a ferry to Venice, although we didn't use it, as on this occasion we wanted to visit Padova which is about an hour's drive away.
Although we normally prefer to stay on smaller sites, we enjoyed our stay here very much. At 15 euros with an ACSI card it was very good value, given the facilities. In high season it would be probably be a slightly quieter alternative to the very large, popular sites nearer to Venice.
