Hi,

myself and my wife are thinking of visiting Arna for the first time in a few weeks. The website 'house rules' section says that :

Admission
... Our center is meant for families. Customers who wish to visit our center for the first time have to be introduced by a family that has been with us since at least 3 years.

Is this the case ?

When we went we just booked a cabin and turned up without any other formalities.

We went through France4Naturism and had no problems. I think the introduction rule is for prospective members. May I suggest you send them an email to sort your holiday out.

Some sites do ask for an INF card, but not Arna although they did need to see our passports. When we visited  de l’Eglantière a few years ago they didn't ask for anything but a few days later I saw a Dutch family booking in and being asked for their INF card. Again we'd booked through France4Naturism so perhaps that negated the need to produce any bumf.

We also booked Arna through France 4 Naturism. Showed BN (INF) card at reception and had no problems. It is a lovely place.

Probably a bit late for your trip but we just turned up in our camper and had no issues booking in (M/F couple + labrador). One of our favourite naturist campsites.

Afternoon folks,

morning folks,

  Just got the 2016  price list through the post. Looking at the campsite prices they have hardly gone up at all. The best package is the 28 nights for 301 euros , that is for low season 2 persons 6 amp electricity and one dog.

So from €10.75 (£7.82) per night for 28 nights, which is great value!

And if you can't manage that long, armed with an ACSI discount card, it's just €15 (£10.91) per night, for two people and an electric hook-up, for a single night or as long as you want.

Applicable dates: 1 April to 8 July & from 25 August to 2 October 2016.

morning all,

  Yep I ordered my acsi book alittle over a week ago and due to be delivered after Christmas . Its worth the money just for the list of campsites butas you know the cost of the book can be recovered over a couple of nights. W used acsi this year at La genese , Eglantiere El portus and one or two textile sites which we might stay en route.

Yes, at risk of going off the Arna topic, but on the subject of ACSI - there's a new entry naturist site for next year - well part-naturist, actually - only half a mile from the beach at Vera Playa - Camping Cuevas Mar. €17 all year apart from July and August. We stayed there in 2014, but it's only just appeared in the ACSI discount listings for 2016!

And it's only a couple of years ago that the long established textile site opened a decent section for naturists to use. There are toilets and showers in the naturist zone. It's not the most glamorous site but perfectly OK and very handy for Vera Playa.

Believe there are quite a few naturist snowbirds that spend the winter there.
