Complexul Turistic Costești
Lakeside complex with pools, restaurant, and camping — perfect for a family weekend
Weekend at the pool on the shore of Costești Lake, with the option to camp or stay in cabins
The Costești Tourist Complex sits on a large plot by Lake Costești, with pools, sports courts, a park, an event restaurant, and a welcoming camping area for foreign travelers. It's a classic weekend escape for Chișinău families — 90 km southwest, good road all the way. Strengths: the large pool is clean, the grounds are generous for kids, the lake atmosphere is calming, reception staff are warm, and campsite has electrical hookups for RVs. Caveat: the hotel rooms are poorly maintained (mildew, peeling wallpaper) — if staying overnight, pick camping or the individual cabins, not the hotel. The restaurant is decent, well-suited for weddings and big family meals.

Made feel unwelcome at breakfast, 2 tables set with placements and cutlery for some conference they were hosting that morning…”
“Awesome place for foreign campers! Once we found reception, we received the warmest welcome. We parked right at the back, on the side of the pool complex, where we found an electricity plug we were welcome to use. Great pool, fab showers and a separate toilet block by the rear parking area. Very friendly owners who made us feel so welcome. Came for a night and stayed a week, at…”
“Good place to stay for maybe a few hours, wonderful decor and scenery, the food is decent, but unfortunately the rooms are horrible. The pool is also okay-ish, the best thing there being the lake. The air in the rooms is very heavy and so much dust I could not breathe without the window open. The water in the bathroom has a VERY strong metal smell and it seems to stick to your …”
- Weak hotel rooms (mold, peeling wallpaper)
