Token-Free Showers: Simplifying Hygiene in Our Modern Sanitary Blocks
Travel should feel effortless, especially when it comes to your daily routine. That’s why Camping Les Medes offers token-free showers in two modern sanitary blocks—so you can step in, freshen up, and get back to enjoying the Costa Brava without hunting for coins or queuing for tokens. From accessible cabins to family-friendly baby areas, every detail is designed to make hygiene easy, comfortable, and reliable all year.
What “Token-Free Showers” Mean for Your Stay
Token-free showers are exactly what they sound like: no tokens, no coins, no gatekeeping. You simply use the showers when you need them. The practical benefits add up fast:
- No pre-planning: Skip the extra stop at reception or a vending machine to buy tokens.
- Flexible routines: Freshen up after a morning swim, a dive trip, or a long hike—on your schedule.
- Less to carry: Keep your hands free for the essentials (towel, toiletries) and forget about pocket change.
At Camping Les Medes, showers in both sanitary buildings are free to use and do not require tokens, removing a small—but very real—travel friction.
Inside Our Two Modern Sanitary Blocks
Our sanitary facilities are designed for comfort, cleanliness, and ease of use in every season.
- Two modern, spacious buildings: Extremely well maintained and can be heated, providing added comfort in the cooler months.
- Token-free showers: Hot, refreshing showers without the need for payment tokens.
- Accessible facilities: Fully equipped cabins, showers, and toilets designed for guests with reduced mobility.
- Family essentials: A dedicated nursery/baby-changing area and baby baths make routines with little ones simpler.
- On-site laundry: Washing machines and tumble-dryers are available to keep layers fresh throughout your stay.
- Pet care: A dedicated dog bathing room lets you wash your pet comfortably on site.
- Caravan and motorhome support: A WC chemists station for chemical-toilet disposal and motorhome services keep your set-up spotless.
These thoughtful additions make the sanitary blocks more than just showers—they’re a convenient, central hub for day-to-day comfort.
Accessibility by Design
Comfort should be universal. In addition to accessible cabins, showers, and toilets in both sanitary blocks, the campsite features flat, well-drained pitches and a main outdoor pool equipped with a lifting crane—helpful details for wheelchair users, prams, and anyone who benefits from level terrain and assisted access.
Family-Friendly Touches
From the nursery/baby-changing area and baby baths to easy-access showers, families can keep routines short and sweet. Short walks back from the beach (about 800 m) or from activities on site make it simple to rinse off and reset before meals or naps.
Pet-Friendly Considerations
Dogs are welcome on camping plots until 5 July and after 22 August (pets are not allowed in bungalows). The dog bathing room in the sanitary facilities makes post-beach cleanup quick and comfortable for your four-legged companion. During high season, a partner service in Ventalló can look after dogs, ensuring they’re happy and well cared for while you explore.
Comfort in Every Season
Whether you visit in spring bloom, high-summer sunshine, or the quiet beauty of winter, our facilities support a smooth stay.
- Heated sanitary blocks: Stay comfortable on cooler mornings and evenings.
- Indoor heated pool (15/9–15/6): Ideal for a relaxing swim when the days are crisp. A swimming hat is compulsory by regional regulation.
- Sauna and professional massage (year-round; additional fee): Wind down and soothe tired muscles after a day outdoors.
- Outdoor pools (1/5–15/9): Pair your swim with an alfresco rinse—then stroll to the sanitary block for a token-free shower.
Smarter Sustainability, Same-Day Comfort
Behind the comfort you feel every day is a serious commitment to sustainability. Camping Les Medes operates an ISO 14001 environmental-management system and has strengthened its clean-energy footprint with 270 photovoltaic panels (installed in January 2023), expected to generate about 130,000 kWh per year—roughly 25–30% of total electricity demand. The roadmap targets 50% solar coverage by 2030 and 100% by 2050. The environmental program has been continuously run and improved since 2000 by Joan Francesc Recio (“Siscu”).
What does this mean for you? You enjoy token-free showers and modern comfort within a site that’s continuously working to reduce its environmental impact—an alignment of guest convenience and responsible operations. You’ll also find practical eco-forward touches elsewhere on site, such as an electric vehicle charging point.
Location and Everyday Ease
Being close to everything makes daily routines even smoother:
- Beach: About 800 m from the campsite—perfect for a quick shower after a swim.
- L’Estartit town centre: Roughly 2 km away; a small road train runs June to September with a stop near the campsite.
- Getting here by car: From the Torroella de Montgrí–L’Estartit GE-641 road, turn right immediately after Camping Castel Montgrí at Joc’s hamburger/pizzeria, then follow the signs to Camping Les Medes.
