Camp Lingua - Summer Camps Near Me - Southwest Ranches, Florida

Camp in West Palm: Disappointing experience -- lack of support and communication Unfortunately, I cannot recommend Camp Lingua for camps, school breaks, or similar programs, particularly for parents of children who may need additional structure, guidance, or support navigating social situations. My son attended only two Fridays. During the second Friday, he had a conflict involving a couple of other children, including children he considered friends. Rather than giving him an opportunity to understand boundaries, learn from the incident, and demonstrate that he could adjust his behavior after receiving guidance, the camp decided to exclude him before his third Friday. Children need to be taught how to navigate disagreements, communicate appropriately, and resolve conflicts. That requires clear expectations, consistent supervision, and counselors who are trained to guide children through these situations. In our experience, the camp did not demonstrate the level of structure, conflict resolution, or individualized support that I would expect from a program working with children. I was also deeply disappointed by the director's communication with us as parents. I expected a more constructive, professional, and collaborative approach, focused on understanding what happened and helping the child improve. Instead, the experience left us feeling that there was little willingness to work toward a resolution or give our son a fair opportunity to learn from the situation. My concern is not that children should never face consequences. It is that consequences should be accompanied by guidance, clear boundaries, and a reasonable opportunity to improve, especially when a child is still learning to navigate social dynamics. Based on our experience, I would encourage parents to ask detailed questions about staff training, supervision, conflict resolution, and how the camp accommodates children who may need additional structure. Unfortunately, our experience did not reflect the inclusive, supportive environment we had hoped to find. read more

Happy Fall Y'all! We had an incredible time celebrating our their cousin's birthday camp lingua! It was the perfect start to the fall season. Activities like petting farms pals and horseback riding kept us engaged and entertained. Our favorite was the rope swing. They have a huge outdoor setup with a stage and plenty of seating at picnic tables. I will say watch out for the flies. Make sure you bring plenty of food covers. They provide these little mechanical devices that rotate to shoot them away as well. Overall, everyone had a great time! h? Camp lingua has a summer camp program that emerges your child in the Spanish language. We have not experienced that portion of their program but lucky for us they also offer birthday party packages along with other things. read more

Camp Lingua - Centerstage in the back of the pavilion - Summer Camps Near Me - Southwest Ranches, Florida

Worst staff members at a camp ever. Particularly mason, Bruno, and Sebastian. Honestly the whole camp is immature and non professional for kids. I wouldn't trust my kids here in a million years until they get some older counselors who have experience and know what they are doing not just horsing around all day. read more

Excellent. The place is marvelous and the people amazing. Kids love it there. Summer camp or birthday parties, its the perfect place for kids read more

I had very high hopes for this place after many recommendations. Had my son there for both, summer camp and after care school. Summer camp is doable, they are constantly outside and kid always comes home covered in dirt (good for them) but, big no no for after school. Your kids will end up for a really long time in their buss sometimes up to an hour is something happens with previous pick up. No help with any school work, it is run by teenagers. It's really a mess. read more

I tried camp Lingua for my boys in spring break and they begged me for summer weeks. They even worked to "pay" their own way. Don't overthink it, it's a great experience for any kid. read more

My son has gone every year since they opened...He LOVES it..he went for two weeks straight ....the people are the best...All the counselors are wonderful....the activities are all planned out and the are different......he loves them all......He has a blast and begs to go every year...will continue to go each year read more

Trying to make the kids go to sleep at aftercare ?? These are not toddlers and this is not a day care. Nor was this mentioned to us parents. My daughter was super excited to start summer camp here after the open house but was super underwhelmed just after her first day. To start it is super unorganized She felt that she didn't fit in because she was placed with kids older than her and the counselors were barely attentive to the kids, she attended for over a week and didn't get to do all that the camp has to offer because they were busy doing dance routines. Just terrible and feel that my money went down the drain with this camp. Save your money read more

Great place to hold a party for children of all ages! There are all kinds of activities and animals to interact with, and the staff are friendly and helpful. read more

Best camp in Florida!!!!! A great atmosphere for all ages. During school vacations, my daughter always ask to go to camp lingua . The staff is wonderful. 10/10 would recommended! read more

Camp Lingua - Summer Camps Near Me - Southwest Ranches, Florida

My kids went here for spring break camp. It was advertised as a horse-centric camp, with dirtbike riding and more. They never did more with a horse than feed it a snack, on one day only. They never rode dirtbikes. They swam in a pond, did art, typical activities you could do at a camp that's half the price. Don't waste your money here. The camp looks good at first glance but it's poorly run. Very few parent communications despite promises of photos daily. Security procedures at pickup consist of the parent wandering the camp searching for their kids 2 out of 5 days. Oh and the paid lunch? Pizza every day. read more

Camp Lingua is the best camp that I have ever seen. My niece went a couple of years ago and now my daughter also goes. They love it. Great environment. We visited the Microschool and we saw that all the children were happy. The place is a wonderful for kids since they have a lot of activities outdoors and even animals. I recommend Camp Lingua 100%! read more

Best camp program for your kids , they treat you like family and care for your children like their own ! Affordable compared to others, with amazing activities and more nature experience for the kids that don't want to disconnect from electronics , it's a beautiful and humbling experience. I love Gabby she's an amazing human being! The hammock location read more

This is our first summer and my son absolutely love it!!! Thank you for a unforgettable summer!! read more

My son always goes there on Thanksgiving, Winter, and Spring Break camp. He always have fun and very enjoyable outdoor environment. It is the best program for all kids and disconnect from electronics. read more

La experiencia Camp Lingua es digna de ser recordada toda la vida. Mientras los chicos se divierten y aprenden, las familias se integran a través de cantidades de eventos fabulosos, por ejemplo, las ferias donde participan los niños y demuestran todo lo que saben, las noches de cine y fogatas, los paseos a caballo donde pueden participar todos, padres, abuelos, amigos... una experiencia A1 read more

My girls have gone to Camp here for a couple years now and they love it. It's very unique how they allow the kids to choose which activity to do opposed to being told what you have to do. My girls really like that. They have horse back riding, fishing, tree climbing, zip line, soccer, arts, slime making. Tons of cool activities!! read more

This was so much not worth the price!! This was our first and last time having our child go to this Camp. Our child was bored. We paid extra for the horseback riding lessons and it amounted to a measle hour for the entire week. To put this into context, a month cost about 70% of what we normally pay in a decent camp elsewhere. Yes, the kids are outdoors but that's not all that great in the sweltering summer heat. Then there was communicating with the Camp, a nightmare. Promises made and unkept add to our not so pleasant experience with this Camp. So, for us this was it. Before this Camp we were considering aftercare during the upcoming school year but, again, the price is just not worth the perceived value for us. read more

Had a very bad experience with this place. Very disorganized and inexperience personnel (young kids) running this place. They claim to be great and have Personalized Attention and low ratios but is not true. I was surprise to have such a terrible place in weston where schools are great. read more

Best summer camp in town. My daughter has been going to Camp Lingua for the past 5 years and each summer she can't wait to return. They treat each child as family and the best part is all the fun and different activities they get to do. I Would highly recommend Camp Lingua if you are looking for lots of fun, caring for animals, many outdoor activities options, and a safe place for kids. read more

Camp Lingua is amazing! Simply put! My daughter is 4 and absolutely loves this camp. There is a wide variety of indoor and outdoor activities. The counselors, staff, and owners are very helpful, informative, and friendly. There is a field trip once a session (sessions are two weeks long) and also one horseback riding class included. I couldn't be happier with my daughters experience. She leaves every day exhausted and very happy; she tells me all about her daily activities and new friends. read more

The camp was good and organized my child enjoy the activities I only wish there was more of a focus on Spanish but would recommend it

I will start by saying that what Camp Lingua is doing is great. They are helping kids nurture their languages through fun activities and in room practice. However, as a first time Parent I was very disappointed by the lack of communication between Parents and Coordinators. I had two students there, ages 3 and 5. This is NOT a camp for young children as their activities are definitely geared to older students. I had several problems with emails and phone calls not being returned in a timely manner or at all as with my last email in which I requested a refund. I paid for lunches and field trips at registration (prior to starting the session) and my children did not participate. The first two sessions my children had to go to a different location Camp Genius, my 3 year old was not allowed to attend field trips per their policy so I lost my money there. Then, we attended Session 4, in which my children had no alternative but to do the Everglades Tour which I refused due to concerns over what had happened at Disney (a child being dragged and died), and again no alternative option was given, so I lost my money there as well. I hate to say that all they care is about their money, but to me it seemed that way. Once you are signed up pretty much there is no going back. Tadpoles which is the app what they used for keeping parents up to date with what's going on was often wrong. I would get the same material and activities for my children even though I knew they were not doing that. My children were in two different classrooms. Information for what was going to happen the next day was wrong. Example, I received a Tadpole Report stating my children were going to CB Smith Park the next day and on that day I received a picture of my child at Flamingo Gardens. I had NO idea where my children were and that is not a feeling any Parent should have. Instagram and Facebook are their sources of "Communication" but their schedule was sometimes late. For Session 4, we received the Schedule on Tuesday night after 11pm, 2-3 days into the Session. Just a lot of problems with their Coordinators keeping Parents aware. We did meet some good Coaches but I did notice that the first Session in which my children were at Camp Genius they learned more Spanish and were speaking it more than when they started at the Camp Lingua location. The Coaches speak a lot of English when dealing with kids during outdoor activities so maybe this was a factor. Camp Lingua does a lot of outdoor activities. Camp Genius was more in classroom lessons. Hope this helps someone out there in making their decision. read more

Went to pick up my kids and they were crying. Apparently there were kids that weren't playing nice. Teachers did nothing about it. Bullies were scratching my kids and kicking them while playing a ball game, and teachers did nothing. While telling the owner, first said "the word bully is a strong word", even though my daughter was describing a bully down to the T. Hearing my daughter saying how the counselors were laughing and doing nothing when my kids and other kids told them what was happening, when the other kids were bullying them after they repeatedly said stop, the owner kept saying I'm sure they didn't, no they didn't do that, completely minimize what my daughter was saying. Worst experience ever! I paid for school's out day which said they would do fishing, archery, do crafts, and my kids did non of that. The only thing my son got to do was soccer and basketball. The groups get to "vote" on what the do for the day? My sons group didn't "vote", and That is not what i was sold? My daughters group at least went to see the animals! read more

Lifesaver! My son hated his current after school program and we struggled to find one that he would enjoy that also offered pick-up. We found Camp Lingua and he is loving it. He is so much happier now and I love that he is getting to do different type of activities read more

Our 7-year-old son has had the best summer ever! He is so full of energy and the activities the kids do from archery, paintball, fishing, tree climbing, zip-lining, teams sports, playing games... help him burn it. It reminds of the sleep-away camp I attended each summer as a child except he comes home each day. read more

My daughter did the - full 8 weeks of camp at Lingua this summer . She could not be happier in the morning to be dropped off and would beg to stay longer when I would pick her up . The entire team at camp lingua was so sweet and made her feel at home from the start . Thank you keeping her engaged and happy this summer ! We will be back next year ! read more

This is the first year my kids have attended Camp Linqua. The kids have enjoyed it as they have a very good balance of study and play. They incorporate the respective language into the activities they do throughout the day. They also take a very creative approach to teaching as my daughter mentioned an activity where they did a scavenger hunt in Spanish at the grocery store. They only got it right when they correctly wrote the Spanish word for the item. The kids also have a lot of fun activities planned in addition to studies. They have field trips once a week and enjoy other activities onsite. It is also worth mentioning that this is a large camp but surprisingly, I have not encountered one staff member who did not seem genuinely interested in being there. They also have a system for managing the safety of the kids which is good considering the size of the camp. Spanish is the largest group so they have more options for separating the kids based on age. The other languages do not but it seems like the smaller groups can learn a lot. We are considering putting our kids there next summer but I was not sure how they would teach the kids who are repeats for say, Spanish. I learned that they change their circulum every year so the material is not stale for any returning kids. read more

This is based on the Summer camp at the SWR location. Very disappointing and VERY unorganized! So many things to complain about, but I'll keep it to the point with 2 main things that stood out. 1. My child had to eat lunch on the pavement floor under a tree everyday, because there were not enough tables available. 2. The children went on a field trip to CB Smith park on 2 buses and returned on 1 bus. So there were 4 children to a seat. Very unsafe! For the price of this camp I expected better. Buyer Beware! read more

I was really looking forward to enrolling my daughter in one or two language classes a week, and even consider the after-school camp as a future option. However, what happened even before signing up made me feel that they are not interested in my business. I received their email inviting for demo sessions, and I clicked to sign up my daughter for a Monday session. Upon signing up, I received the confirmation email with conflicting information: There were two dates (Monday and Thursday) on the message. So we show up on Monday at the time indicated. When we get there, they tell us the demo sessions were never scheduled for Monday or Thursday, but for Wednesday... We come back on Wednesday under a strong thunderstorm - weather alert and all. Could not leave the car. Mind you this is a farm-like setting, where you have to walk 50/70 yards from the parking area to the front door, with no covering, so we would have gotten soaking wet in addition to the risk of being hit by ligthning. So we wait in the car for some 20 minutes - there were at least two other cars in the same situation. When the storm calms down a bit, we try to leave the car, but their front gate area was flooded. We get back in the car to drive home and I call them to explain the situation and reschedule. Their answer? That the demos were today, that was that, no demo session for prospective students. About the unexpected thunderstorm and flooded entrance? Said I should have worn rain boots. I'm serious. read more

Great ambience and great people, best decision ever made, our kids spent almost 4 weeks at their Summer camp and they loved.

This school is amazing! Living here in the equine community of SW Ranches and having an adult language school on a ranch is like a dream come true! I am studying Portuguese at the school in the evenings. I had no idea when I signed up that it would literally be in my back yard amongst horses and hay! The children's camp is a wonderful program for kids. They offer so much. I'm so impressed! The president of the school Andreina is a beautiful hearted human being. You can see how much of her love is in what she created here in SWR! Thank you read more

I attended classes on the weekend. I paid in full at the beginning of the year. I don't recommend you do this. Let your child attend the sessions in segments.My child did not progress much in her weekly session so I didn't get my money's worth. After I complained that she didn't seem to be getting much from the Spanish lessons, I was told that students should attend more than once a week. I also expected to receive printed materials each week and dedicated teaching staff. Often times 'teachers' would show up unprepared to continue previous lessons. Students weren't given handouts so they could prepare for absences. We also didn't have good contact info on weekends (the building was controlled access, teacher not coming, early pick up). read more

Everyone in the staff is nice and helpful. The facility is big and beautiful. My child came home dirty, tired, happy and hungry which is what I expect from a summer camp. :) My child did miss at least one session of his language class. They were playing outside and when it was time for class, he somehow stayed out playing. I would have liked that an adult in charge firmly directed my child to class instead of hoping he would listen and willingly stopped playing and go to class by himself. There are many sports/activities camps, but to me Language learning is the main point of choosing Camp Lingua. read more

My son had the most amazing summer at Camp Lingua! Love how well they communicate and the shows every two weeks. My son will definitely be going back next year. read more

My 2 kids have been going to Camp Lingua for the past 3 years and they have really enjoyed it!.... The counselors are excellent every year and make sure the kids are having fun, safely and improving their Spanish Definitely not the cheapest camp around, but I know you get what you pay for. I don't mind paying a bit more for a lot of peace of mind. I wish they had camp sessions during holidays I have to work (x-mas week). Keep up the good work! read more

Awesome camp for kids! They had a variety of activities to do and never a dull moment! My kids really enjoyed their time there this summer! read more

Overall it was a good camp with a variety of outdoors activities- horseback riding, Gaga ball, archery, tree climbing, fishing ... to name a few. My kids complained of having to outdoors to eat and for them it was very hot and unbearable. They also complained of the flies which was everywhere- I guess to be expected for being at a ranch. I wish they had larger indoor facilities for the amount of campers they have. read more

This is my 11 year old daughter's second year attending the camp. This year they added a new feature of the parents being able to see videos and pictures of what the children are doing during the day. I saw a video today of my daughter reading a book aloud in Spanish during class. I absolutely love checking the application each day to see what they are doing. It alerts you when they arrive back from field trips even. Every camp should have this feature. My friends who are Spanish speaking are very impressed with my daughter's ability to communicate in Spanish and often times share my daughter's Spanish is more fluent than their children's. The staff interacts with the children and makes learning a language fun. The staff are all adults and you can see really care about the children. My daughter also participates in the after school program during the school year. We also are very happy with that program. I'm very comfortable with the supervision of the children on field trips and outside activities which always is extremely important. I would highly recommend this camp to children of all ages.
