Amazing place! Very friendly staff! Very quite at night! Highly recommend! Warm shower for 3 euro. If You want to make a fire, you can buy firewood for additional 3 euro. Great for families with kids (there is mini zoo), also excellent for couples (very romantic views). Very nice and cosy bar (works till 11 p.m.) with good kitchen (works till 10 p.m.). We had parking for one night (camper with electricity) for 15 euros plus 3 for each person!

Amazing stay!

We stumbled upon camping by chance, when searching for accommodation online, looking for an overnight stay. A couple of hours after staying at Melnsils, we decided to extend our stay for additional night. The fisherman's cottage is lovely, each room has its own story and theme and Krišjanis room was comfortable and we loved the character (and functionality) of it. The small kitchenette had everything we needed to cook a small meal and coffee, the bathroom was clean. The beds are quite hard, very camping-style, fair warning, if you are bothered by that. The window is a roof-window, without a curtain, which means you are awoken by light every morning, which I loved, the most natural awakening there is. The sound isolation is not the best, you can hear the neighbours talk in the next room. 
There is a terrace on the floor with the rooms, where you can enjoy your lunch and breakfast, if you cook it yourself, or you can always go downstairs to the other end of the cottage to the pub. 
The beach is a minute walk away, really fantastic, you can see the sea from most places in the camping. The barrels looked like loads of fun as well, but we opted for private bathroom. 
The camping offers a lot of activites, they rent out a lot equipment, but fair warning - the cheaper bikes are is seriously poor condition and both "cheaper" and "expensiver" rental for bikes is too expensive for one day. 

The store is a few minutes walk from the camp, where you can buy ingredients if you wish to cook for yourselves. And to buy water, we disliked greatly the smell and look of water, so we bought our own. 

The staff is really friendly, so all in all it was a very pleasant experience and would love to return there. Even though the accommodation itself has its faults, all the plus options they offer make up for them.

Krišjanis Valdemars room, lovely experience

We just stayed for one night in Melnsils. The staff was overall very friendly and accomodating. We decided to spend the night in one of the barrels right next to the ocean. Keep in mind that most of them (or even all barrels) have no electricty so buy some candles / lighter and a bottle of wine or two beforehand. The whole place was very clean. The facilities were all very basic, just as one would expect from a camping place - but functional nontheless. There is a "summer"shower with unheated water for free, warm showers cost a small fee. Breakfast and dinner are served in a small restaurant on site for a fair price. They offer quite a few outdoor-activities, but sadly we had no time for those. Spending a couple of days there might well be worth it.

One night in a barrel

I stayed with my extended family at the guest house on the property. It was a very good value, as the house was beautiful, thirty meters from the beach, and in a great small location which was isolated but had access to everything. Highly recommended.

Great guest house

Guest house is located just meters from the water, but it is not Baltic sea, but calm Rigas bay, which is more similar to the lake. Roughly decorated in pirates ship style house is ok as a playground for children, but not as a guest house. O it really uses pirates methods to cheat: WiFi is not in the rooms (as it is written in information) but in the bar; rooms are very small with narrow double beds (up to 150 cm); but the main  problem is sound isolation: walls exists only visually, so all the time you participate in neighbors' life (and you can't just ask them only stay quiet or to whisper). Staff is friendly looking arrogant trying to get money for every move you make. So the price of 56 euros for double room is highly inappropriate.

Pirates bay

Camping Melnsils location is very good, near to sea and sunrise views are really good. Maybe for summer on caffe need 2 cooks, because when we arrive, waiter said that we need to whait 1 hour and I reaaly wanted to eat, we drive to Kolka. But overall was great.

Perfect night for romantic

I have stayed in barrel house in Kolka last year (30km away from Melnsils) and it was very nice stay - so I was expecting to get similar feelings in Melnsils. But I did not.

Firstly, barrel is really very small. My boyfriend is 1.83m and bed was too short for him. Secondly, barrel is just 10m away from camping ground, therefore it was a bit loud. Thirdly, they charged for parking place separately. I have never experienced that parking is not included in "room" rate outside the city. And finally, there were some candles in the room for light but no matches. I do not smoke, so how they expect that I will get a light in the room? 

Next year I will definitely return to barrel house in Kolka to enjoy some silence!
