A top quality parc, wonderfully located amongst the Esterel Hills, with a superb pool complex.

Set on a hillside among beautiful parasol pine trees and the pink rock of the Esterel hills, Camping Esterel is the perfect choice for a family holiday. The facilities on this parc are excellent, boasting a superb swimming pool complex, a fantastic jungle themed children’s pool and a restaurant and bar built in traditional Provençal style.
