Armeno - all beaches

The beach was absolutely fantastic! The staff were incredibly welcoming and accommodating, and the bar and toilets were spotless. The lake was stunning and provided a safe and enjoyable swimming experience for both adults and children. I am already looking forward to returning to this wonderful destination!

This beach was incredible! We had the best swimming experience in Northern Italy. The sand was soft and the area was spotless, and the water was warmer than other lakes in the north. Prices were reasonable; you could either pay an entry fee of €6 per person or rent a sun bed with an umbrella for €20 per couple. I had read that Lake Orta was a hidden gem in Northern Italy, but I only truly appreciated it after spending the day at this lido!

The toilets are clean and the lake is beautiful, but that's where the positives end. The tent spaces are extremely small, forcing you to choose between setting up a table and two chairs or parking your car. The ground is dusty and too hard to secure the tent properly. We had no shade from 8am to 6pm, causing the inside of our tent to reach 42°C with no other place to rest. The camping staff was rude and unhelpful, even though there were other shaded spots available. The campsite was crowded and noisy at night, with people talking loudly at the restaurant until 11:30pm. They charged an extra 3€ for each gluten-free pizza, making it too expensive for our two celiac daughters. Additionally, we were charged 10€ for booking in advance, but were not allowed to choose our tent spot. We will NEVER return.

We had an amazing half day on the lake with Explora Beach. The staff were incredibly friendly and the boat rental prices were very reasonable compared to other companies. The boat we rented (cap 500) was spotless, speedy, and easy to maneuver. With a half day rental from 9:30am to 2:00pm, we had plenty of time to explore the entire Lake Orta. Just remember that fuel comes at an extra cost on some of the boats; we used half a tank and paid an additional 45 euros. Despite that, we had a great time and would definitely recommend Explora Beach.

This small beach on Lake Maggiore is conveniently situated. The water temperature is pleasant, though there is an abundance of algae. It would be even better if there was more sand to accommodate more people.

This beach is well-equipped, offering not only beautiful surroundings but also comfortable deck chairs. Additionally, the staff is friendly and welcoming. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking to have a peaceful Sunday.
