Union Lido Cavana in 2017

If you saw the 2016 Union Lido Christmas card that dropped through letterboxes, you will no doubt be aware of the new and exciting attractions and activities coming to the 2017 holiday season, but if not, we wanted to let everyone know about the Cavana which is being revamped to be even more family friendly.

Information taken direct from the Union Lido Christmas Card:

edge

Multifunctional recreational space, Entertainment activities, Maxi Club and Teen-Club, Birthday parties for children, Disco under 15 from 8pm to 11pm, Multilingual cinema, Playstation & XBOX tournaments.

We are excited to see how diverse the Cavana will become in 2017 and will no doubt be the place to be for children and younger teens at Union Lido!

New Union Lido Disco Bar - Pina Colada!

Another big announcement from Union Lido for 2017, a new disco bar / party room for all ages, open till late.

From Union Lido directly: "New Disco Empire: Party room, events and more, organized by Union Lido, disco after 11.00 pm. For teenagers, over 60, and the whole family”

edge

The Pina Colada disco bar replaces the old Empire nightclub across the road from the holiday park. Union Lido have recently purchased the venue, which further extends their appeal to those who love disco and late night dancing.

This also gives the park greater control over loud music, ensuring noise levels are reduced after 11pm. This is another positive step Union Lido has taken to provide more consideration for families with younger children.

We will bring you more on this announcement as soon as more details are revealed.

Exciting VORTEX: a thrilling slide with strobes on a rubber boat, an impetuous exit on a big vortex with wild water, and the fantastic final drop.

Pure adrenaline for an emotion like you have never felt before!”

Airport to Union Lido Direct Bus 2016


venice_treviso_airport_bus

We have received a copy of the new 2016 ATVO direct bus service from both Treviso Airport & Marco Polo to Union Lido. You can view / download the new timetable now and hopefully it helps with your 2016 Bolero Holiday plans.

Single tickets are €11.50 and return tickets are €21.00 (but please check that you can return at the end of your holiday as previous rules with return tickets state you must use it within 3 days of purchase)

Also, when boarding the bus, please state to the driver your destination ‘Camping Union Lido’ so that you ensure they will stop en-route to the ferry port of Punta Sabbioni.

Download the 2016 Union Lido Direct Bus Service

If your flight does not tie in with this direct schedule, you can still use the public transport system outlined in our other public transport segment.

Union Lido - New Aqua Park Addition!


The Aqua Park Mare has received a new addition to the shallow waters play area for the children. A new playfort with slides, bridges and fun for all the children to enjoy! We have some photos here to show you the new addition. At the time of taking the photos, the pool itself had been drained which is why you won’t see any water, but rest assured, it will be ready for you when you arrive this holiday season at Union Lido. Click on any of the images below to show them at fullsize (best viewed on a tablet or desktop computer)




Union Lido vs the UK

Today is a great day to ask the question 'Where would you rather be?' - Here, in the snowy UK enjoying slushy roads, bitter wind and soggy socks? or at Union Lido enjoying clear skies and bright sunshine in warm welcoming surroundings? It’s a tough choice!

edge

Let the images below showcase the two locations today (One is the north east of England and the other is Union Lido…if you need any help working out which is which, the UK is the one shivering!)




Union Lido 2016 Updates

The Bolero team at Union Lido have sent us some photographs of the newest additions to the Union Lido holiday park for 2016. We thought that we would play a little game with everyone…. So… We have cropped each selection of images below to show a little less of the scene and it’s your job to write down where you think the photograph was taken at Union Lido in Italy.

Union Lido in Miniature!

union-lido-in-miniature-2016

Just for fun, we’ve used a photo technique to see how the world of Union Lido might look if it was built as a scale model for amusement. As you can see, it would still be just as much fun to enjoy Union Lido even as a miniature toy village, visiting the pool complexes, the beach and even as far as Venice! Have a wonderful weekend everyone :)

Union Lido Wavepool

Union Lido have provided us with an image to show the new planned wave pool extension for Aqua Park Laguna this coming holiday season. As you can see, the new attraction will be placed alongside the current pool complex. We are sure this new addition to the holiday park in Italy will further enhance your holiday enjoyment!

Where is Bolero on Union Lido?

A common question asked of Bolero is 'Where are you on the holiday park?' and it's a valid one as too near a main road and vehicle noise could affect your sleep, or too close to the beach and mermaids might kidnap you…

Maybe the last one might be more of a wish, but knowing where your holiday accommodation is helps to know how far the main attractions are from your holiday doorstep.

To help, we have added our logo to the main Union Lido map which will show you where to find us at Union Lido. Just click on the map below to view the fullsize version, and you will see we are almost in the centre of the holiday park.

union-lido-map-bolero

To help identify this a little better, you can use our Google VR tour to take a 'Virtual Walk' around a mobile home, venture out to the reception office and even down to the beach.

This VR tour will give you an accurate representation of our location and it will help you judge the distance from your holiday accommodation to the private beach.

30 Years Memorabilia - Bolero Holidays

Tuesday 12th May 2015 saw the weekly Bolero BBQ night, and as this was the day after Bolero turned 30, we celebrated with our holidaymakers and enjoyed music, good food and of course… cake at Union Lido.

Bolero was presented with a custom card made out of an old 1989 Bolero welcome letter which was signed by all those who share their May holiday with Bolero each year, some for the past 23 years!. We are so touched to have been given such a special card and be surrounded by such special friends, thank you very much.

During the holiday season this year, you could catch a direct bus from Treviso airport to Lido de Jesolo at 10.45 every morning. This service may be running each year, but we cannot guarantee this.

It is best to visit www.atvo.it to find out more about the timetables and pricing.

For the return journey, it must be noted that in order to reach the airport in the designated two hour check-in time, early morning flights would be better reached by taxi and not public transport. For flights departing in the afternoon, this method of journey would be suitable as the first bus leaving Lido de Jesolo bound for Treviso is at 08.20 in the morning (earliest you could arrive at Treviso airport would be around 10.00am)


Marco Polo Airport


When you arrive at the airport, you can purchase tickets from the booth in the arrivals hall (to your left) or you can arrange a taxi at the desk opposite the arrivals entrance.

When you arrive at Lido de Jesolo Bus Station:

Take the number 5 bus from Lido de Jesolo to Punta Sabbioni (alighting at Union Lido)

--

The approximate cost for the entire journey by bus is: €12 per person (2013 prices)

Prices are subject to change (as per the companies operating the public transport system), so please use the prices given by Bolero as a guideline only.

If you plan to return to Marco Polo Airport using the public bus transport system, it is advisable to make sure you know exactly what time the bus picks up outside Union Lido to allow yourself enough time to reach the bus stop and get to the airport for your 2 hour check in.

You can purchase a single ticket to Marco Polo Airport from the Union Lido information office in the main square of the holiday park.

New Bolero European Mini Brochure

Whilst we were unable to include all the languages in our large brochure (mainly because it would struggle to fit through a letterbox) , we have created a small brochure which will be available at Union Lido for our European cousins.

This brochure highlights information about Bolero, talks about our accommodation and provides the prices and discount info needed in order to (hopefully) fall in love with a Bolero Holiday. Translated into German, Danish, Dutch and Italian, we hope our Big Brothers Little Brother makes a welcome addition to the Bolero Holidays family in Italy.

New Mobile Homes at Union Lido


Our team flew out to Union Lido last week to begin preparations for the arrival of the new three bedroom mobile home units, arriving this week. We thought it might be nice for you to see what the park was in like in late Septemeber, early October last year when we began moving the replaced two bedroom mobile homes off their pitches.

As you can see, the floral coverage from the trees cast quite a shadow over the ground, and the falling leaves made it perfect for jumping in them!

The image above shows the mobile home row, where opposite, all the older two bedroom homes have been removed, off to enjoy their service on another park in Italy.



We all made sure to wave goodbye to each and every mobile home that left us that day, a small tear shed in their honour for their service to providing quality accommodation to our guests.



We all ended up drawing straws over who raked up the leaves. You can see that none of the mobile homes have their canopies, these are all dismantled for the winter and placed into storage to keep them safe.



Another shot of the mobile home row, and would you believe this was October weather? Sunny, bright and very warm!

Each shiny new mobile home stands to attention. You may now have noticed the trees (or lack of)


A nervous new mobile home afraid of its new responsibility has a chat with one of our team and soon joins the rest of his friends.



Every 3 years the Union Lido crew cut back the tress to allow more direct sunlight onto each of the plots. By May, these trees will have bloomed into a more attractive sight! We are happy to provide more sunlight which means less need to shuffle yourself around to follow the sun!

Merry Christmas from all at Bolero

Project Venezia - New 3 Bedroom Mobile Home For 2012

Following on from the fantastic success our Bolero Torcello enjoyed throughout the 2011 season, we are very confident that our new three bedroomed Venezia model will enjoy a similar season.

After listening to feedback in 2011, we decided to replace 14 of our two bedroomed mobile homes with this new model to allow mid sized families to spread themselves out better and allow smaller families to enjoy the extra space without upgrading to the larger
Torcello mobile home.

The Bolero
Venezia was designed with these principles in mind and now helps bridge the gap for any family wanting to enjoy more living space at Union Lido.

Union Lido Plus Bolero Plus Ice Cream Equals A Taste of Paradise
Union Lido

What Is Union Lido?

Union Lido is often called a campsite; but that’s like calling a Rolls Royce a car. In the literal sense, it is indeed a place where people can camp. But if that conjures up images of a random jumble of tents, basic toilets and cold showers, forget that. “Holiday Village” is a more accurate description. Their own description is “Parco Delle Vacanze” – Holiday Park.

Anyone who knows Center Parcs will understand the concept: comfortable, well-appointed cabins for accommodation, eating places and amenities on site and a safe environment for the children. Union Lido is that and more – much more. Not for nothing has it regularly won awards as Europe’s best campsite. It’s been going a long time – since 1955, in fact – and in that time it has been improved continually in a striving for perfection. Within its square mile or so are shops, supermarkets, bars, restaurants, a heated outdoor swimming pool complex, holiday chalets, spacious camping areas and a kilometre of magnificently maintained beach with the sort of sand children love to dig into. The Adriatic Sea in summer is like a warm bath.

And that’s only scratching the surface. The whole place has a sense of organisation and order that makes it stand out from the rest. There are beautifully tended flower beds, spacious avenues where the trees form an arch overhead, fish-and-turtle-filled ponds spanned by Japanese-style bridges, fountains and even a quiet woodland area that feels like part of an English forest. The entire site is run along eco-friendly lines and is spotlessly clean and tidy, while all staff are approachable and friendly. Many speak good English, though they respond with particular warmth if you try even a few words of basic Italian.

The sense of order extends to the way guests are expected to behave. This is not one of those “anything goes” sites where beer-swilling, drunken parties are the order of the day. Guests are expected to respect each other’s right to a peaceful holiday and there are strict rules about quiet times being observed. This works to everyone’s benefit and a good night’s sleep is possible without the interruption of rowdy behaviour. It also makes it safer for children.

Many people come by car and there is plenty of space for them to be parked alongside tents and caravans without making the place look like a glorified car park. There are clear rules about where and when cars can move on or off the site, so pedestrians are never inconvenienced.

There’s even a doctor on site, provided free of charge (though they suggest a one-euro donation towards medical research).

A wide range of entertainment is provided. Forget people in red coats trying to whip up enthusiasm in unwilling campers. The entertainments here range from classical music concerts to lavishly produced musical shows and rock concerts, all given under the stars in a spectacular setting and free of charge. There are firework displays, artists’ evenings and a weekly on-site market. For younger people, from toddlers upwards there is a full programme of events (or “animations” as they call them), ranging from discos to football and swimming tournaments. You could stay on site for the whole holiday and always find plenty to do – though if you didn’t venture out you’d miss some of the remarkable delights the area has to offer.

And in a country famous for its ice-cream, the ice-cream on sale here, made on site, tops anything we’ve ever tasted. The range of flavours is beyond belief. It’s enough to say that during a fortnight stay you’d have to have several ice-creams a day to get through them all! Just for the record, my own favourites are Nocciola (hazelnut) and Pear And Cinnamon – my mouth waters as I type this!

Where is it?

Union Lido lies on the Littorale del Cavallino, a narrow strip of land forming part of the edge of the Venetian Lagoon. At its northern end is the resort of Lido di Jesolo, while to its south-west, just a few miles away, lies the wonderful city of Venice. The area is notable for its wildlife, its history dating back to Roman times and its agriculture. It has been tastefully developed with the tourist in mind without spoiling its character. There are cycle tracks that allow you to ride in safety all along the edge of the lagoon, where the quiet stillness casts its spell and makes you forget the problems you may have left back home. The sunsets on the calm lagoon waters are heartbreakingly beautiful.

Bolero

If Union Lido wears the crown among camping sites, the jewel in its crown, as far as we’re concerned, is Bolero, a British family-run tour operator, which has its own area on Union Lido in a prime location in the centre of the complex, within easy reach of all amenities. We have been coming to Union Lido with Bolero for many years, both with and, later, without our children. It says a lot about this company that every year we encounter many people we’ve met here before. All agree that the quality of service they get from Bolero is so high that going anywhere else would probably be a disappointment.

Accommodation is provided in either a caravan with a spacious awning or a mobile home. Cooking facilities are provided in both, though there is no oven. A microwave can be hired for a small fee. We’ve stayed in both types of accommodation and nowadays opt for the mobile home, largely because we like to come out in May, which can be quite cold at night in the first couple of weeks and the mobile home’s air conditioning has a heating option. There is plenty of space (a mobile home sleeps five with ease and six at a push) with two bedrooms, a well-equipped kitchen/living-area, a spacious bathroom and a high-pressure shower that delivers a massage. Each mobile has its own veranda with table and chairs beneath an awning, so you can sit outdoors in the evening and enjoy a cold beer.

What makes Bolero so good is the attention to detail. The managing director and his wife, John and Margaret Robinson, spend a good part of each season onsite, making sure that everything is done to give the best possible service, a task they take very seriously. Any problems are sorted out immediately without fuss – and the only problems we’ve ever encountered are minor ones anyway, such as a faulty toilet cistern. And they’re always open to suggestions for improvements. All their on-site staff are friendly and helpful and take the trouble to get to know their guests, though not in any intrusive sense. After all the years we’ve been coming (since 1997), it’s very much a home-from-home.

Bolero hires out bikes by the fortnight, the day or even just the afternoon and as I said above, the whole area is geared to the cyclist – only rarely do you need to use the roads and in general the roads without cycle paths are fairly quiet and safe. That said, it only takes one reckless driver, so stay vigilant…!

Prices for holidays with Bolero are remarkably good – we’ve done our own detective work and compared their prices with other companies running sites on Union Lido. Consequently we come out for four weeks every year, at a cost that would probably get us only a fortnight with another operator. Rather than quote prices here, which are obviously subject to change year by year, I’ll refer you to Bolero’s website – just type “Bolero Holidays” into Google and you’ll find them easily. It’s also good to know that the whole pricing system is kept simple, so it’s easy to work out what you’ll pay. Prices are per accommodation rather than per person so a family of five can stay for the same price as a couple.

Getting There

Transport is not factored into Bolero’s pricing. You can travel to Union Lido by car, by plane via Venice’s Marco Polo airport or by train from Paris (Bercy station into Venice – right on the edge of the Grand Canal!). We chose an overnight sleeper train from Paris, partly because I can’t stand flying but also for the experience in itself – travelling across the lagoon by train in the early morning is magic!

Getting from the airport is simple and cheap: a bus to Lido di Jesolo, then change for the no.5 bus (to Punta Sabbioni) and ask to be let off at Union Lido, fifteen minutes or so down the road, just past the town of Cavallino. If you’re coming by train, from the railway station you take a no.2 water-bus (“vaporetto”) to San Zaccharia – a wonderful experience in itself – then take the ferry to Punta Sabbioni, on the mainland and pick up a no.5 bus to Union Lido. If, however, you’re arriving by car, don’t ask me –use a satnav!

Venice

Someone once said “See Venice and die.” (I don’t think that quote has anything to do with the Mafia.) The idea, I guess, is that when you’ve seen Venice you’ve seen the very best the world has to offer and can you pop off quietly and happily. But of course, no holiday is long enough to experience all of Venice, which is another reason we keep coming back – and we still have a lot more of it to see before we allow the Grim Reaper to lead us away. From Union Lido you can buy a ticket for around sixteen euros that takes you from the campsite to Venice, including the bus and the ferry, both ways. Or for a little more (about 22 euros) you can get a runabout ticket for a day that enables you to use the water-buses and the ferries to the islands – and little Burano has a magic of its own. Either way, coming in towards St Mark’s (San Marco) for the first time (or even the twenty-first) is one of life’s great experiences, beyond compare and one you could never set a price on. I shall say no more about Venice, except to say that if you’ve never seen it, you’re not yet ready to die.

What’s The Catch?

Why does there always have to be a catch? For many people, including ourselves, Bolero and Union Lido offer an unbeatable combination, while the close proximity of Venice makes the whole package irresistible.

However, the truth is that any earthly paradise is going to have its flaws and the main ones here are mosquitoes and sunburn. But, of course, that’s not just Union Lido, that’s the whole Mediterranean area. If you take the proper precautions you won’t have any bother. Just visit Boots or your local pharmacy before you leave home.

Any other catch? If there is, we haven't yet found it…
