What's included in Early Arrival?
Earlier access to your accommodation
Get settled in up to two hours before the standard accommodation access time.
More time to unpack
Unload the car, unpack and get comfortable without feeling like you're eating into your first evening.
Start your break feeling settled
Once you're unpacked, the rest of your first day is yours to enjoy.
Can I arrive at Center Parcs before my lodge is ready?
Yes. You can arrive at the village from 10am on your arrival day and start enjoying Center Parcs before you can access your accommodation.
You can explore the village and make the most of your first day, then head to your accommodation once it's ready.
Early Arrival is different: it gives you earlier access to your accommodation, rather than earlier access to the village itself.
