Jan 8, 2025 | Press release

Aix-en-Provence, 8 January 2025 European Camping Group (ECG) takes a new step in its development with the launch of its first wholly-owned campsite in Spain, Neptuno Campsite (8.5 ha, 362 pitches) on the Costa Brava, further enhancing its strong historical presence on the Iberian Peninsula (51 partner campsites). At the same time, the group strengthens its roots in France with the acquisition of La Pointe du Médoc**** Campsite (6.8 ha, 259 pitches) in Gironde. Both campsites will be operated under the group’s own brand, Marvilla Parks.

Neptuno Campsite – Costa Brava: First Wholly-Owned Campsite in Spain

Located in Pals, at the heart of the stunning Costa Brava, Neptuno Campsite marks European Camping Group’s entry into Spain, a strategic market with high potential. With its 362 pitches spread over 8.5 hectares and an ideal location close to the beaches, Neptuno offers a perfect blend of nature, relaxation, and convenience. The integration of Neptuno into ECG’s portfolio of wholly-owned sites is the result of 20 years of partnership between ECG and the family that owns the campsite. The trusted relationship built over time through ECG’s partner model provides a solid foundation for a smooth transition into this new phase for both the family and ECG.

ECG plans an investment and modernization program for the site, including the renovation of the restaurant and an overall refresh of the facilities. The goal is to establish Neptuno as a flagship MARVILLA Parks 4-star destination, offering an unforgettable experience to European holidaymakers.

La Pointe du Médoc Campsite – Gironde: A Strategic Modernization

At the same time, ECG strengthens its presence in France with the acquisition and a significant modernization project for La Pointe du Médoc**** Campsite, located in Verdon-sur-Mer, previously operated under the Sunêlia brand.**
With its 229 pitches nestled in a well-preserved region, this 4-star site offers an outstanding location near the beaches and the Gironde estuary.

Renovation work is planned to upgrade existing facilities and enhance the site by combining modern comfort with a natural environment.

“The opening of Neptuno under the Marvilla Parks brand in Spain is a major milestone for European Camping Group. Combined with our expansion in Gironde with La Pointe du Médoc, it reflects our ambition to offer exceptional destinations across the European market.” emphasized the group’s management.
