Smart ways to plan and save
Use these practical tips to keep your holiday budget predictable and optimized.
- Factor nightly items first.
- Start with your accommodation total, then add the tourist tax (€0.44/night/adult 18+) for the exact number of nights and adults.
- Schedule day visitors strategically.
- If your dates are flexible, inviting visitors in mid- or low-season means a €2.50 fee instead of €3.50.
- Right-size your cold storage.
- For short stays, refreezing ice packs (€0.50 each) can be more cost-effective than a fridge rental; for longer stays or with kids, a fridge (€5.75/€5/€4 per night) can reduce food waste and extra grocery trips.
- Batch laundry.
- Plan wash days to make the most of €4 wash tokens and €5 dryer cycles; bring detergent or buy on-site for €1.
- Consider cancellation insurance.
- For a modest 4% of your total, Campez Couvert provides financial protection if plans change due to covered events.
- Cardholder discounts for pitches.
- If you hold an ACSI, ADAC, ANWB, CCDF, or FFCC card, you benefit from a €19 nightly rate in low- and mid-season (01/04–11/07 and 28/08–15/10) for two people, one car with a caravan or tent, one small extra tent (max. 4 m²), and a 6 A electricity hook-up. Use the saving elsewhere in your budget.
