We had heard this place was great, and it totally was not Our daughter vomited every day, and we had no idea till the end I wouldve expected a call at least asking what was going on, and if that was normal. My daughter needless to say did not have a fun time This was one of the more expensive camps out there We were very disappointed .particularly for how much money we spent. Other things that were terribly odd...She was told to bring 5 swimsuits, but they were not allowed to swim. The counselors would not reply, when asked if they were covid tested when returning to camp from

I was nervous sending my 8 year olds to camp but Pali Adventures is the perfect place to send your kids for the first time. My kids came home talking about it non stop and begging to go for 2 weeks next year! My picky eater said they had the best food too. Definitely sending them again next year!

My teen daughter attended this camp the summer of 2019 and absolutely loved it. There was no doubt that she would attend again. Unfortunately, CoViD hit and the summer of 2020 was not open. Yes, we paid upfront for the camp and yes it is pricey. However Pali was very honest and upfront with their situation. They aren't a huge profit organization and many of their costs are front loaded before the camps even start. They tried to offer refunds but unfortunately couldn't get funding. The people who are complaining about this need to realize that CoViD took its toll not only on individuals
