CAMPSITES are getting cooler – letting you have a family holiday with all the frills but without the expensive costs.
One of the most fun ones on the block is Alannia Costa Blanca Resort in Spain, one of the largest of it’s kind in the country.
The five-star camping resort isn’t one where you’ll be pitching tents, but instead with holiday lodges instead.
But the main attraction is its huge tropical waterpark, with Indonesian Island stone heads overlooking it.
It has loads of pools (one of which is heated) as well as slides and splash zones.
Adults can head over to the spa centre or gyms, if they want a break, or take the kids to the many sports facilities including tennis and padel.
You won’t have to leave the resort for anything – even with a hair salon and supermarket on-site.
Otherwise the main restaurant has both local and international dishes, or grab drinks and ice creams from the poolside bar.
When the sun goes down, there is lots to do as well with a vast programme of activities including discos, shows and bingo.
While the resort isn’t on the beach, the nearby Costa Blanca coastline is around 20 minutes away by car.
If you’re visiting in the peak summer season, expect prices to be around £1,719 for a week’s stay.
Visit outside of the peak summer season and you’ll pay just £554 for a week’s stay – and with lodges sleeping five, this works out to just £16 each a night.
Rooms range from premium two and three-bedroom holiday homes to larger lodges and chalets.
Families have raved about the campsite online, with one saying it was the “best camping site they had been to”.
Another said the pools “make you think you’re in Thailand“.
A third added: “The Tahiti pool is out of this world. Felt like we were in the Maldives.”
