Villa Pardoes was originally an idea put forward by the Efteling Nature Park Foundation and is based on the successful “Give Kids the World” concept in the United States, which grants the vacation of a lifetime to children with life-threatening conditions. In order to manage the funding and running of the holiday villa, two foundations were set up: the Villa Pardoes Donations Foundation and the Villa Pardoes Development Foundation. Efteling B.V. is now their main sponsor.

Villa Pardoes is a holiday complex located in the Dutch town of Kaatsheuvel, dedicated to helping kids with life-threatening conditions. Together with their parents and siblings, children can enjoy a holiday of a lifetime in one of the eight penthouses in Villa Pardoes. The villa has themed penthouses including Snow White, Barbie, Medieval Knights and Space. Each colourful penthouse has a whirlpool, a large fireplace, sand pit, slide and games computers: everything you might need for a fun family holiday.
Villa Pardoes is shaped like a snail shell, which says a lot about how special this villa actually is. At the entrance, guests are greeted by a stone sculpture and a snail trail that leads them into the heart of the complex. Inside, everything is tailored to what children need and love. Families can enjoy a week away whilst they escape from the cares and worries of home life. Villa Pardoes gives these families a well-deserved holiday of a lifetime.
Sponsors like the Efteling keep Villa Pardoes up and running and give families the opportunity to experience a holiday of a lifetime. Those who would like to learn more about Villa Pardoes or are interested in becoming a sponsor can visit the website at www.villapardoes.nl.
