Funside Balaton International Summer Camp

If the cancellation occurs at least two weeks before the session starts, a 95% refund of the camp fee is available (with a 5% administrative fee deducted from the total camp fee). After this point, the cancellation is considered late, and the refund amount is determined on a sliding scale based on the timing of the cancellation. However, even in such cases, a 95% refund is possible if a new camper takes over the spot. The cancellation guarantee provides more favourable conditions in case of a late cancellation than the traditional cancellation conditions that have been in place for years. In case of cancellation in the days before the camp session, for example, instead of a partial refund of the camp fee, it offers other options, such as choosing another session or using the camp fee for a later session (the conditions depend on the time of cancellation). The cancellation guarantee costs EUR 25 / person / session and can be requested at the time of sign-up.

We have a team of 50-60 teachers and instructors looking after our campers each week, with the help of a 24/7 medical staff. If, for some reason, your child requires particular medical attention (e.g. allergic reactions, ADHD, asthma, etc.), please make sure to tell us both on the registration form and when checking in at the camp so we can ensure your child’s safety. The same applies to special diets: please specify your needs on the registration form so we can provide the right catering for them. Naturally, children are safe at the campsite 24 hours a day. While the camp leaders do not share rooms with the campers, our camp also has a 24/7 reception, to whom children can turn to may they have any issues during the night.

We have a team of 50-60 teachers and instructors looking after our campers each week, with the help of a 24/7 medical staff. Our team of young and well-trained camp leaders is assembled through a long recruitment process, including background checks, and our 5-to-1 child-to-adult ratio is outstanding among camps.

Funside camp leaders are a young, energetic and dedicated group of people who are there to guarantee we all have a great time. We take their selection very seriously, as it can be seen by our 3 step application process. It begins with an online questionnaire, where we first find out how professional and motivated candidates are. The best applicants based on the questionnaire will upload a video interview of themselves, answering 10 questions about their most relevant camping experiences. After that they take part in a group audition, where 20-25 people show us not only their pedagogical and social skills, but we also look at how they behave as and with children, by making them play the activities they will eventually be holding. Finally, every member of our staff is required to take part in our orientation weekend, where they learn the practical skills and the schedules of a Funside Balaton camp. Each year we try our best to provide the best education and safety for our campers by choosing the right members of staff.

Bringing mobile phones or other electronic devices to the camp is not recommended, but it is not forbidden either. The camp administration does not take responsibility for belongings brought to Funside. However, our administration staff runs a free safety deposit, where valuables can be kept safely during the day.

This camp was founded in 2007.
