New WiFi installation: now twice as fast as before!

More and more people want to connect to the Internet during the holidays, so the demand for WLAN has increased dramatically in recent years. Our previous facility was often saturated and the connections were slow.
Therefore, with considerable effort, last winter we changed the system completely. It was worth it!

- 8 antennas offer sufficient "access points" to ensure good coverage on 100% of the campsite.
- The browsing speed is twice that of the previous installation.
- 4 DSL lines combined offer an optimal connection to the Internet, even with high demand.

Another significant advantage offered by this system is the payment for actual hours of Internet access, compared to the old payment for days or weeks. In this way you can make better use of your subscription, connecting whenever and for as long as you want.

From now on connecting to our WiFi you also have free access to various information pages, weather forecast and the complete entertainment program of our campsite!

Have twice the fun surfing the internet during your holiday in Aquarius!
The snack bar was moved - takeaway food now throughout the
whole season

Extensive structural measures provide a better and continuos service. 

The old snack bar was demolished and the acquired space was attributed to the Supermarket. A glass wall gives the new entrance and cashpoints much light. Beautiful pictures on the walls and pillars provide a friendly atmosphere.

Additional space with shelves allows the expansion of product range and a better exhibition of the goods. 

At the same time we have extended the Restaurant and made it accesible from the Arcade Hall. In this new part of the Restaurant we will now offer take-away meals, which are prepared in the likewise extended kitchen. In this manner a space was created, with a modern feel to it, which will be especially to the likings of the youth: Hamburger & Co. A new, additional furnace will help to expand the concept of Pizza to Go.

These reorganizations have the advantage that we can offer hamburgers, pizzas and takeaway meals throughout the whole season, as they are prepared in the Restauran kitchen. Another advantage is that we can integrate this "modern food" to the menu of the restaurant. But that's not all, last but not least, we now also offer a small menu in the Restaurant from 1 pm to 10:30 pm. 

We invest in a broader and better service to satisfy all of our customers!
MARLIN BEACH BAR this year open from March until October!

Bonnie, a devoted co-worker from the Marlin Beach Bar Team 2009, started the initiative of opening the beach bar already on Eastern.
So this year the beach bar will be open from March 20th till October 31st. During the main season there will be a beach disco again every week and the opening times will be from noon until midnight.

We warmly welcom everybody to enjoy not only the great view you have at the Marlin Beach Bar, but also the excellent variety of food offered here.
FREE SHEETS and TOWELS

We offer a new service to our customers: from now on we’ll provide sheets and towels for free in all of our rental accomodations!

Upon arrival you’ll find the necessary sheets ready for each bed, as well as the blankets, pillows and pillowcases. The kitchen equipment will be completed with tea towels.
A service certainly welcome by our customers flying in by airplane!
We drop the “pitch guarantee fee”
The new internet booking platform turned out to be very useful. Thanks to a great number of customers now booking only a pitch type instead of a specific pitch number, we could lower significantly the amount of booking gaps, especially during low season.
This is why we decided to drop the special fee for reservations with “pitch guarantee” to only 35.- € during low and super low season. The current fee of 75.- € will apply only to stays beginning in July or August.
Those customers who already paid their fee for reservations in 2010 and 2011, and who’s arrival date is neither in July nor in August, will get a refund of the difference on their bill.

We wish to remind you that booking without pitch guarantee is completely free of charge!
QUESTIONNAIRE Raffle: 3 Free Stays on Camping Aquarius!

This is what all our customers had been waiting for: the raffle of three free stays on our campsite we had promised!
During Christmas holidays we extracted three questionnaires out of hundreds you have posted during the last season. And the winners are:

Family Carnein from Warendorf – Germany
Family Schneider from Menden – Germany
Family Stüttgen from Alsdorf – Germany

We process the questionnaires on a weekly basis during the season in order to adopt immediately the necessary measures. That’s why we want to thank our customers for their contribution to enhance our service and turn your stay into a real relaxed holiday.

Same prices for 2010 in spite of tax increase!
As you might know, the Spanish government determined an increase on the VAT for july 2010.

Nevertheless, after giving it a thorough thought, on Camping Aquarius we decided to carry this tax increase ourselves, even though we had increased the prices for the next season only very slightly, and nothing at all in case of the rental accomodations. This means that for you, dear guest, there will be no increase in the final prices of our campsite whatsoever, in spite of the tax increase!

No changes in the pricelist for 2010. See price list

Summer Fashion by "Gioseppo" exclusive at Aquarius Campsite

This year again you will find the latest fashion of the brand "Gioseppo" in our supermarket, which in Sant Pere Pescador is sold exclusively at Camping Aquarius!  Amongst our extensive offer you'll be able to choose summer shoes and accessories for all tastes, for children as well as for adults.

Gas control
More and more customers leave their caravan in Spain during the winter, allowing an easier and cheaper trip from England and return with the car only. As a „side effect“ the gas installation of most of these caravans doesn't get checked for years. This could be dangerous!
For a save holiday on Aquarius we recommend to all of our customers who are in this situation to have their gas installation checked on the very next stay here in Spain. Ask for information at Caravan Service, official expert in Sant Pere Pescador (
www.caravan-service.eu) or your loval caravan parking, some of them offer this service themselves.
New Open Air Showers at the Gates to the Beach  

Last year we had to dismantle the showers we had on the beach due the Natural parc's modifications. Our efforts for the city council to replace them – fthe law says they are the only ones allowed to place showers on the public beach zone – were useless last year and we aren't very hopeful this year either.
As a great number of our customers missed those showers, we decided to place new open air showers at the gates to the beach.

Herewith you'll be able to wash away the nasty sand when returning from the beach, something comfortable not only for our guests, but very welcome by our cleaning women in the bathrooms too!
„ADAC Campingpreis 2007“ Award

We are happy and proud to announce that the prestigious Camping Guide of the ADAC Automobile Club of Germany (with several millions of members) has awarded to our Camping Aquarius the prize „ADAC Campingpreis 2007“ !

The “cup” shown on the photo, symbolizing the extraordinary award, was presented during the „ADAC-Gala“, celebrated in Stuttgart (Germany) at the tourism trade fair (CMT) by the Tourism Department's President of the ADAC Dr. Max Stich and the chief editor of the ADAC Camping Guide Mr. Stefan Thurn. 
And now we proceed to present de ADAC award to the campsite with the most satisfied customers…“ said the ceremony master while asking Mr. Markus Rupp to approach the platform.
This award makes us especially proud, because what else could a campsite wish than satisfied customers?

THANK YOU !
I want to take this chance to express my gratitude in the name of the Rupp family and all the Aquarius staff to all our customers who passed their satisfaction with our campsite on to the ADAC (it probably is more common to take such initiatives to present a complaint…)
We think that the nice atmosphere on our campsite is not only due to our own efforts, but it's in a great part thanks to our guests themselves who create this comfortable holiday atmosphere, crucial for a great holiday. 
This isn't obvious at all and therefore I'd like to say “thank you” to the many regular customers of the Big Aquarius Family!

Markus Rupp
