Vacation on Usedom: dream landscape or unfriendly locals?

Vacation on Usedom: dream landscape or unfriendly locals?

Usedom, Deutschland - The Baltic Sea island Usedom, known for its picturesque beaches and charming places, is currently the focus of negative reports on the hospitality of the locals. In a current report, tourist Stefan T. from Bavaria describes a number of disappointing experiences during his stay on the island. When he arrived in an apartment near Wolgast, the contact person greeted him unfriendly. Despite this first uncomfortable encounter, he and his wife explored the natural beauty and the sights of the region, which include the mill on Pudagla, Stolpe Castle and the towns of Krummin and Ückeritz. The weather showed its best side for beach visits.

However, the negative experiences did not fail to materialize. According to Stefan T., he experienced several unfriendly encounters with locals during his vacation. An example of this was a visit to a kiosk, where the operator reacted rude when asked about the opening hours. There were also problems on the beaches: misleading signage regarding nudist and dog beaches caused confusion. Dogs ran freely on the beach despite the existing dog ban signs. Attempts to report incidents to the regulatory office remained without feedback. Overall, Stefan T. summarizes his experiences by saying that the beautiful landscapes and nice people could not have predominated the stressful encounters. This reports The west .
