From Boshopper to Bubble Suite: these are the winners of the Pincamp Awards 2025
The winners of the Pincamp Awards 2025 were announced at the CMT fair in Stuttgart. These prestigious awards, presented by ADAC, recognize the most innovative, sustainable, and customer-oriented campsites in Europe. Spoiler: a Dutch campsite has won an award.
Category 'Sustainability and Environmental Awareness': Sunêlia Les Sablons (France)
Nestled among the vineyards and asparagus fields of Languedoc, Sunêlia Les Sablons shines. This French campsite is highly sustainable and thus earned recognition at the Pincamp Awards 2025. The campsite features energy- and water-saving programs, biodiversity strips, and a mini-farm that supplies fresh produce to the campsite’s restaurant. In short, an inspiring example of how camping and environmental awareness can go hand in hand.
Other nominees: Camping Lake Shkodra Resort (Albania) and Camping & Resort Sanguli Salou (Spain).
Category 'Innovation and Progress': Holiday Park Beerze Bulten (Netherlands)
At Beerze Bulten, online booking and check-in have long been the norm. But now, the holiday park also introduces the Boshopper: a friendly robot that serves drinks and snacks to guests. This adds a futuristic touch to the camping experience.
Other nominees: Camping Village Roma Capitol (Italy) and Camping Resort Mon Perin (Croatia).
Category 'Demographic Change and Accessibility': Kurcamping Holmernhof Dreiquellenbad (Germany)

The luxury mobile homes on the campsite are also highly recommended.
