History

Vacances Bleues was founded in 1971 in Marseille as a non-profit organisation, with one objective in mind: to make holidays accessible to as many people as possible. In 1982, the adventure continued with the opening of a holiday village near Lac de Serre-Ponçon. Every year, hotels, clubs and residences in exceptional locations have joined the Vacances Bleues selection in France, and today there are some 25 destinations. Vacances Bleues also offers cruises and trips abroad. Created as a non-profit organisation, it has remained true to its roots and is still a non-profit organisation that governs the group's future; as the group's sole shareholder, it reinvests 100% of its profits each year to constantly enhance the quality of its hospitality and services.
