Besides the potential to generate rental income, owning a holiday home at Basecamp offers a number of additional advantages:

• Flexible conditions for personal use
• Your own place to stay in a natural and inspiring environment
• Fully managed rental operation – Basecamp takes care of bookings, guest communication, cleaning, maintenance, technical issues and administration
• Flexibility to sell or transfer your holiday home at any time
• An investment that contributes to Basecamp’s sustainable mission

The purchase price of a holiday home at Basecamp varies by resort and home type, with prices starting at approximately €99,000.

In addition to the purchase price, you should consider the following costs. The exact amounts and structure may vary by resort and home type:

• Rental commission: Basecamp charges a fixed percentage of rental proceeds to manage the entire rental operation, including resort management, marketing, guest communication, check-ins, administration and cleaning.
• Plot rental & park management: €3,000 – €6,000 per year.
• Technical service contract: €300 – €1,200 per year. This covers minor technical issues and small repairs that can be resolved quickly to avoid interrupting the rental operation.
• Insurance: Basecamp arranges collective insurance for the holiday homes, providing owners with appropriate coverage at competitive rates.

The financial return depends on several factors, including the resort, the type of holiday home, rental performance, and how much you use the home yourself.

For each type of holiday home, we provide an estimated financial return based on expected rental performance and applicable costs. Request the brochure for the resort you are interested in to view the detailed calculations.

At the end of each calendar month you will receive an overview of the rental income from your holiday home in the previous month. The net proceeds will be transferred to you within 14 days after provision of that overview.

For most of the resorts, the rules below are used as a basis. However, some of our new resorts even offer a more flexible and almost unlimited personal use. Please do take into account that you won’t receive any rental income during the nights you will use your holiday home.

For most resorts the following rules apply:

• Low season: You can use your holiday home as much as you want or you are free to rent it out to a long-stay tenant.
• Mid-season: Unlimited overnight stays but last-minute booking
• High season: Maximum stay of 10 days. Usually this only concerns the school holidays that are important for the resort.

We do not charge a nightly rate for personal use. However, the usage costs for water, electricity, WiFi, linen and cleaning will be charged (as for every user). 

We would of course be happy if you will advertise Basecamp and your holiday home. However, all bookings will be processed via Basecamp’s central booking system. Basecamp’s current prices always apply, but guests referred by the owner receive a 5-10% discount (varies by resort). You will receive a discount code that you can share yourself.

During the low season it is also possible to rent out your house for a long stay and to refer someone. If you are interested, please contact us well before the low season starts so that we could block the dates in our booking system in time.

Your investment contributes to the development and improvement of the resort and its sustainable holiday homes, facilities and infrastructure.

Our broader mission is to create a growing international network of eco-resorts in unique natural locations, combining hospitality with sustainability, innovation and a strong connection to the local environment and community.Visit our website to discover our current resorts and future Basecamp locations.

Sustainability is at the core of Basecamp Eco-Resorts. We believe that hospitality can be commercially successful while reducing its environmental footprint and creating a positive impact on its surroundings. We integrate renewable energy, work with progressive suppliers, restore and protect natural ecosystems, and continually seek better ways to develop and operate our resorts.

Increasingly, our ambition goes beyond sustainability towards regenerative tourism: can tourism leave a destination better than it found it? This means looking at what was there before, what we can improve, how we involve local communities, who benefits from the development, and what we can learn and apply to future destinations.

Our goal is to demonstrate in a tangible way that tourism can create lasting value for guests, local communities and the natural environment.

Not necessarily. Depending on the country, your personal circumstances and the type of investment, it may be possible to buy and rent out your holiday home either as a private individual or through a company.

Tax rules, VAT treatment and registration requirements vary by country and can also depend on how the holiday home is used. In some cases, buying through a company may be more attractive, while in others private ownership may be preferable.

We therefore recommend seeking professional tax advice before making a purchase. Our sales team can explain how ownership is typically structured at each Basecamp resort and, where needed, introduce you to tax or legal advisers familiar with the relevant location.
