Opening in May 2027, this brand-new park close to Venice features Italy's biggest camping village water park, and a beautiful Blue Flag beach on the Venetian Adriatic Coast

Are you ready for something really special? Opening in May 2027, hu Eraclea Mare is a spacious 100-hectare parc set between a tranquil nature reserve and a beautiful Blue Flag beach. Freshly constructed from the ground up, the design team really has thought of everything here. And it starts with your location:  just a ferry ride away from the Venetian Lagoon!  All this, and Venice too.

Part of the prestigious hu OpenAir brand – who are using their extensive experience to create exciting new holiday villages like this – the star of the show is undeniably the water park. With 15,000 square metres of lagoons, an indoor pool, Olympic and semi-Olympic swimming pools, a sun-soaked 40,000 square metre solarium, and a tangle of seriously thrilling waterslides, it’s the largest of its kind in any Italian holiday village. We’d say there aren’t many stand-alone aquatic attractions like this across the whole of the country. Prepare for your kids to be smiling from ear to ear. Little ones too - there’s plenty of mini-sized thrills for them.

When you're ready to dry off, the beach is right here. Enviably wild and unspoiled, its clean sands and water have helped it to achieve the coveted Blue Flag, it's the perfect place to build sandcastles, hire a pedalo or simply watch the world drift by with a gelato in hand.

Within your parc itself, the activity menu is frankly mind-blowing (in the best possible way). Tennis, padel, football, volleyball, yoga, canoeing, a mountain bike track, paintball, an 18-hole mini golf course, trampolines -  and the first port of call for your kids? We’d say it’s the tree experience and zip line, the largest ever built in a holiday village. With ten kilometers of cycle paths and hiking trails through the nature reserve, Eracle Mare even promises a gorgeous escape route, when you want to seek a little solitude, too.   

Hungry after all that? No problem. Eraclea Mare has supersized that as well! There are 30 food and drink outlets serving up the best of Italian and local Venetian flavours, from restaurants and bars to sweet shops and a brilliant bazaar to explore. For the evenings, a real outdoor theatre with 1,500 seats hosts shows, music and events for all ages.

If you can bear to leave, Venice and its famous canals, the colourful island of Burano, glass-making Murano, ancient Torcello, the beach resort of Lido di Jesolo and the beautiful fishing town of Caorle are all within easy reach. Your parc’s team even organises guided hikes in the Dolomites if you want to swap sea air for mountain air. 

Eraclea Mare really is a parc that has genuinely thought of everything. And then thought of quite a bit more on top, too.

Please note: The 5-star rating listed for hu Eraclea Mare is pending official classification. As a brand new location scheduled to open in May 2027, it will undergo the official rating application process and is fully expected to be approved as 5-star. New photos will be added soon.

The water park here will genuinely be in a league of its own. It will be the largest ever built in an Italian holiday village, covering a whopping nine hectares. Take your pick from the Olympic and semi-Olympic pools, the lagoons, the indoor pool or the waterslides, then dry off on the vast 40,000 square metre solarium. And when the water park isn't enough (hard to imagine, we know), the Blue Flag beach is right on your doorstep for more splashing, sandcastles and pedalo adventures.

With thirty food and drink outlets spread across the parc, you're never far from something delicious - Italian, Venetian and holiday favourites too. Restaurants, bars, sweet shops and a dedicated space for local delicacies all serve up the very best of fresh holiday food. All that activity is bound to make your family hungry.

In the evenings, a proper outdoor theatre with 1,500 seats comes alive with shows, music and events for all the family, while the entertainment team keeps younger guests busy with workshops on everything from beekeeping to recycling (no, really!). There's even a babysitting service, so you can enjoy a night out in peace.

  • Bars: 3
  • Shops: 8
  • Fresh bread available

Active families will feel right at home here. It might even test their stamina!

Thrill-seekers should make a beeline for the tree experience with a zip line (the largest of its kind in any holiday village - you’re getting the drift now?), the mountain bike track and the paintball arena. There'll also be mini golf, trampolines and playgrounds to keep younger ones busy from morning to night.

Eraclea Mare is the perfect base for exploring one of Italy's most rewarding corners and coastlines. Venice is an easy day trip away (and a memorable ferry ride, too) -  wander the bridges and canals, take in Piazza San Marco, then lose yourself in the quieter neighbourhoods. The lagoon islands are equally unmissable: we love colourful and peaceful Burano, and the glass-blowing island of Murano.

Closer to home, the beach resort of Lido di Jesolo is a really likeable Italian seaside town, which thrums with life from morning til night. For a touch more authenticity, the real, working fishing town of Caorle is just half an hour away.
