A holiday should be relaxing!

Mirabella Camping at Lake Balaton offers a rich variety of experiences for the whole family. Whether if you are looking for active recreation or relaxation, this great holiday destination has everything you need to go home recharged and with unforgettable experiences.

But a family holiday can present different challenges, depending on the age of the children you’re taking on the adventure. Here are some useful tips and information to make your family holiday truly relaxing and to help you find your own rhythm and the best way to spend your days off.

 

Don’t flinch at the sound of a family getaway!

Mirabella Camping at Lake Balaton offers you waterside experiences

Summer is fast approaching, the sun is shining and it’s warm, so it’s no surprise that you’re also longing for the water. It’s time to organise your family holiday. Mirabella Camping at Lake Balaton offers you a beach experience in the capital of sunshine and summer, Zamárdi!

Of course, we are also aware that there can be many uncertainties and doubts about family holidays.

Is it worth going out if you’re travelling with young children, or are you just going to be more tired during those coveted rest days? Is it worth taking a teenager on a family holiday, or should we give it up, as all the grimaces and bored expressions will sabotage the parents’ holiday? Where should you travel with a toddler so that you can take a breather as parents from the constant need of organising programmes?

If you’re a parent and you’re thinking of one or more of these or similar agonies when it comes to organising a family holiday, then make sure you read on!

Mirabella Camping at Lake Balaton offers you a Balaton beach experience, so a holiday with children of any age can be both relaxing and a great adventure!

 

 

Spending your holiday with babies

If you have a baby, home is certainly a place of comfort and security for you. However, it’s important to get away from home every now and then, as every new experience and change of environment contributes to the development of your baby. And what’s also very important is that a trip can give you a break from the monotony of everyday life.

Comfortable mobile houses

If home comforts are important to you and for your baby, our fully equipped mobile houses are the ideal choice. They are impeccably clean, with modern facilities and a pleasant terrace. After your little one has fallen asleep you can chat, relax on your own terrace or while one of you is resting with the baby the other parent can go for a swim, a dip in the pool or grab a snack from the on-site buffet.

Free baby kit

A small child needs lots of things. If you’re going on holiday, packing your things can be a real hassle as you’ll have to carry almost half of your household with you. At Mirabella, we want to help with our free baby kit. You can also request a high chair, bath tub and cot at the campsite reception, so you don’t have to pack the big stuff in the car.

If you’re on holiday with a baby, you should also know that we don’t charge a personal fee for babies under the age of 2.

 

A great tip: Bring the grandparents too!

One of the best forms of holiday with young children is when you choose a multi-generational holiday. Grandparents, parents and children stay together in the same place, so adults can share the responsibilities of looking after the children.

Mirabella Camping at Lake Balaton offers the real Balaton atmosphere where all ages can have a great time. Everyone can have their own mobile house, but you can also choose different types of accommodation to suit your individual needs.

During a multi-generational holiday at Mirabella Camping, you can be together while still having some private space for everyone. You could organise activities, excursions and even let parents get away for a bit of alone time while grandma and grandpa look after their grandchildren.

 

 

Don’t leave your puppies at home either!

Mirabella Camping is not only family-friendly, but also pet-friendly. Your four-legged pets can also spend their holidays in our mobile houses. Our campsite also has a dog beach, where dogs can cool off in the summer heat. Read more here about how pets can go on holiday with you.

 

 

Adventures with schoolchildren

If you come to Mirabella Camping at Lake Balaton for a Balaton beach experience with preschoolers or schoolchildren, you will feel like you are in paradise, while the kids will have plenty of fun right inside the campsite.

The biggest challenge of a holiday with school-age children is keeping them active while you relax. The location of Mirabella Camping at Lake Balaton makes it an absolute winner for you, as you don’t even have to leave your accommodation since you’re already on the beach. And the water and all-day splashing around will ensure a good night’s sleep for even the liveliest little ones.

The campsite also has its own heated adventure pool, so water adventures are guaranteed even if Lake Balaton is a little cooler than you’d like.

 

Animation and activities at the campsite

The atmosphere of Mirabella Camping at Lake Balaton is made even more perfect for families from mid-summer with its fantastic permanent children’s programme. From July, you can meet the beloved Animacik crew every day. The enthusiastic and tireless team of animators of Lake Balaton await the little ones with exciting activities right on the campsite.

We also have a great playground where the kids can climb, slide, swing and enjoy the best moments of childhood.

Mirabella Camping at Lake Balaton awaits you with experiences and countless activities. You can choose from comfortable mobile houses or even a tented or caravan adventure with the kids. A camping holiday can give children memories to last a lifetime.

 

Tip: Take advantage of children’s curiosity!

Early school age is a very open and inquisitive time. At this age, your children will be more than happy to join in with your activities, so it’s worth taking advantage of this opportunity. Mirabella Camping at Lake Balaton offers you a holiday full of adventures at the waterside, but the surrounding area is also full of great things to explore.

Zamárdi’s excellent location is also ideal for excursions of all sizes. Take a ferry to the neighbouring Szántód and explore the Tihany peninsula, or climb to the nearby Kőhegy Lookout in Zamárdi for stunning views of Lake Balaton. A real mother-daughter activity can be a cosy lavender harvest in Kőröshegy, and if your kids are striving for adventures you can visit the Zamárdi Adventure Park!

 

Getting in tune with your teenagers

Going on holiday or living with a teenage child in general, is one of the most frustrating situations for a parent. There’s no doubt that a family holiday with your teenager requires a different approach, as programmes that have worked well for years may not work anymore.

But in the atmosphere of Mirabella Camping at Lake Balaton, everything is in place to create a holiday where parent and child can get together.

 

Independence and privacy

Teenage children want freedom and independence on a holiday too. You can easily ensure this during your camping holiday, saving your self from many unnecessary sources of conflict. If you are camping in a tent, for example, make sure the teenager has a separate tent!

And if you’re spending your holiday in a mobile house with two or three older children, you might even consider booking a separate house for them. This can be a great experience and a real motivation for a family holiday, as they can try out independence in safe conditions, but still be with you, in one place.

Sadly, we have to admit that by the end of the teenage years, your youngsters prefer to spend time with their friends. To make sure your holiday is not one of constant languor, you could bring their best friend along, or you could get together with their friends’ parents so that you can spend your holiday together as two families. You don’t necessarily have to spend time together with the parents, you can be completely independent, but the children can be together and the atmosphere will be much more relaxed.

 

Tip: Step out of your comfort zone together

Parents can also be cool on the shores of Lake Balaton

With teenage children, it is difficult to find a common activity that everyone enjoys. However, as a parent, you can also step out of your comfort zone inside Mirabella Camping at Lake Balaton. Thanks to Windsurfcenter, you can rent surf and SUP boards directly at the campsite and even sign up for surf lessons together from the end of June. A cool parent-child experience like this will break the resistance of even the most stubborn teenager.

For older children, the sports fields of the campsite are also a great way to spend time. You could organise a serious parents against kids ping pong match, or a game of volleyball together, or even an occasional foosball tournament right at your accommodation.

And if more challenging activities are possible with the kids, Mirabella Camping offers golf carts, bicycles and the chance to explore the Balaton bike trails.

 

The key to a carefree holiday – take care of your meals!

We would like to share one more important piece of advice with you, which will certainly not be news to anyone travelling with a child. Shared experiences and good vibes can only really flourish when meals are delicious and plentiful. On a family holiday, there’s nothing more unmanageable than dealing with a hungry child or adult.

With Mirabella Camping at Lake Balaton, you don’t even have to think about a hungry stomach, as there are a number of quality restaurants with great Balaton gastronomic offers right at your accommodation. There’s a great restaurant, buffet, bar and a convenience store at the campsite.

You’ll always find something tasty to snack on in no time, from classic Balaton dishes to a classic beach buffet repertoire, from fresh draught beers to refreshing cocktails and ice creams.

 

A meal with your family is the crowning glory of a holiday

Every time you eat together as a family it brings you a little closer together. The atmosphere of Mirabella Camping at Lake Balaton includes not only easy access to quick meals, but also cooking together.

And don’t miss one of the highlights of the Mirabella Camping experience on Lake Balaton during your family holiday: lightning a bonfire, outdoor barbecue and cooking in a cauldron! If you fancy settling down at one of our cosy fire pits, simply head to reception, where you can buy firewood and rent a cauldron.

 

 

Have the children fallen asleep?

At the end of the day, when the children have fallen asleep, parents deserve some rest and relaxation too. Evenings spent under a starlit sky, sipping wine and chatting on the terrace, are truly special moments.
