Accommodation revenue
Accommodation revenue totalled €597.4 million during the first half of 2023/2024, up 8.6% relative to the year-earlier period.
Growth in revenue was driven by the rise in average letting rates (+5.7%) and the number of nights sold (+2.7%). The occupancy rate was up by 0.8 points to 70.1% over the period (vs. 69.3% in H1 2022/2023).
RevPar4 was up 7.2% compared with H1 2022/2023.
All brands contributed to the increase in revenue:
- Center Parcs: +9.3%
Growth was driven by the Domains in the BNG5 region and was boosted by a rise in average letting rates (+7.5%) thanks to the premiumisation strategy and park renovation works, and by a rise in the number of nights sold (+1.6%).
Business at the French Domains was penalised by the partial unavailability of cottages at Domaine des Hauts de Bruyères and Domaine des Bois Francs, which were being renovated during the first half.
The occupancy rate was down by 0.8 points to 71.2% over the period. RevPar was up 6.4%.

- Pierre & Vacances: +8.8%
Revenue at the brand was higher in both France and Spain.
- Revenue from the residences in France increased by 5.7%, despite a reduction6 in the stock operated by lease (-5.4% of nights offered relative to H1 of the previous period). On a constant stock basis, revenue was up (RevPar up 11.7%). Average letting rates were up 2.8% and the occupancy rate up 5.1 points to 71.2%.
- Revenue from the residences in Spain was up sharply (+41.4%), driven by both average letting rates (+7.1%) and a higher occupancy rate (+10.8 points). RevPar was up +33.0%.
All destinations combined, the P&V brand recorded growth in the occupancy rate of 6.2 points to 67.4%.
Average letting rates were stable over H1 (-0.3%), due in particular to a less favourable mix effect (high growth in revenue from seaside destinations (+15.1%), with lower average prices than mountain sites).
RevPar was up 11.4%.
- Adagio: +5.7%
Aparthotel revenue rose by 5.7% in the first half, driven by a 6.5% increase in average letting rates.
The occupancy rate fell by 2.6 points to 70.8% (significant base effect with an occupancy rate up 8 points in the first half of 2022/2023 following the rebound in post-Covid activity).
RevPar was up +3.0%.
Supplementary income7:
H1 supplementary income totalled €170.2 million, up 10.0% relative to H1 of the previous year, driven by higher onsite sales (+13.0%) reflecting our strategy to enrich the offer as well as growth in the maeva.com management and distribution business (+15.3% over the half-yearperiod).
Other revenue:
H1 2023/2024 revenue from other businesses totalled €54.7 million compared with €104.1 million in H1 2022/2023 (decline with no significant impact on EBITDA), primarily made up of:
- Renovation operations at Center Parcs domains on behalf of owner-lessors, for €15.9 million (compared with €58.2 million in H1 2022/2023).
- Les Senioriales for €20.8 million (vs. €33.3 million in H1 2022/2023);
- the Major Projects business line: €17.4 million (of which €15.7 million related to the extension of the Villages Nature Paris domain (vs. €11.6 million in H1 2022/2023).

IFRS11 adjustments: for its operating reporting, the Group continues to integrate joint operations under the proportional integration method, considering that this presentation is a better reflection of its performance. In contrast, joint ventures are consolidated under equity associates in the consolidated IFRS accounts.
Impact of IFRS16: The application of IFRS16 as of 1 October 2019 leads to the cancellation, in the financial statements, of a share of revenue and the capital gain for disposals undertaken under the framework of property operations with third-parties (given the Group's leasing contracts). See below for the impact on H1 revenue.
