Camping Marvilla Parks Kaatsheuvel

Marvilla Parks Kaatsheuvel (formerly Camping Het Genieten) borders directly on the well-known National Park the Loonse and Drunense Dunes. This beautiful nature reserve consists of 3500 hectares of sandy plains, heathland and forests. Only 8 car minutes away from the Efteling amusement park, Marvilla Parks Kaatsheuvel is the perfect location for a wonderful peaceful vacation in a natural environment.

Enjoying winter

From 15 November to 1 March 2025, Marvilla Parks Kaatsheuvel campsite will transform into a true winter paradise. The park will be winter-lit with atmospheric lights, Christmas trees and braziers. During your stay, you can show off your state skills on the artificial ice skate track or challenge friends on the curling track. For families, there is an extensive entertainment programme with fun activities such as marshmallow roasting, a lantern parade, biscuit baking and cosy film nights.

In restaurant ‘Sands’ you can enjoy delicious winter dishes, including cheese fondue, during the winter months. During Christmas, a special Christmas menu is offered for both brunch and dinner. On the terrace you will find the atmospheric skating track, which we think is the perfect place to enjoy your favourite winter drink from the restaurant, while the kids have fun on the ice.

Besides all the outdoor fun, our indoor pool is also open during the winter months. This pool offers a wonderful place to relax and enjoy yourself, regardless of the weather outside.

Combine your stay with a visit to 'De Winter Efteling', open from 11 November to 2 February 2025. This winter edition of the theme park offers a unique experience with brilliant lights, attractions and special winter shows. We also recommend you to visit the unique ‘Light Safari’ at the Beekse Bergen, open from 28 November to 9 March 2025. During this special walk, you will pass the most beautiful light objects that illuminate the walking paths in a special way.

_{There is no entertainment programme on Mondays during the winter opening. Restaurant Sands and the skating rink are closed on Tuesdays.}

New swimming pool and hours of fun

The brand new indoor pool at Marvilla Parks Kaatsheuvel campground is open and offers an unforgettable experience for the whole family. You can also have fun in the new water playground, complete with children's slides and refreshing sprinklers. For the more adventurous, there are two large water slides that provide a good dose of excitement and fun!

In addition to its perfect location, the campground is especially known for its large outdoor playground. Jumping on the air trampoline, sliding down the cable car or climbing all the way up the large climbing frame, nothing is too crazy here! The water playground is also hugely popular once the temperatures rise. Children get into their own landrover and brave the landrover track. In less clement weather, or just for a change, the smaller children can also visit the free indoor playground. New since 2023 is the E-chopper rental. There will also be a new escaperoom in the catering building and the possibility of laser gaming and AR experience.

The animation team will provide a fun and varied program of activities for young and old during the season. All children gather at the new youth center from where all activities are organized. Bicycle rides, ghost tours or crafts. Children will not be bored at Marvilla Parks Kaatsheuvel.

Enjoy the car-free courtyards and streets.

These areas are attractively landscaped with walkways and plants and are car-free, so children can play safely! By the way, did you know that we have installed solar panels on most of our mobile homes? In this way we not only offer a luxury camping vacation, but also contribute to a better environment. This campsite is part of our own Marvilla Parks campsites.
