A family-run holiday park in North Wales is set to celebrate 20 years of welcoming families to the region.
A family-run holiday park in North Wales is set to celebrate 20 years of welcoming families to the region. Marine Holiday Park in Rhyl was first purchased 20 years ago by husband-and-wife team Wyn and Samantha Williams, who dreamed of creating a holiday park that their daughters, Paris and Rio, would love.
The park has become a popular destination for families, with thousands of holidaymakers visiting each year. Throughout its 20-year history, the park has welcomed a number of well-known faces, including Frank Bruno, Howard Kendall, Joe Royle, Neville Southall, Neil Mellor and Warren Gatland, alongside performances from artists including The Real Thing, Brotherhood of Man, Showaddywaddy, Chico, N-Trance and Ultrabeat.
The park has also received a number of major tourism and hospitality awards, including Holiday Park of the Year at the Go North Wales Tourism Awards in 2021, alongside consecutive Booking.com Traveller Review Awards in 2023, 2024 and 2025, Tripadvisor Traveller Choice Awards in 2023, 2024 and 2025 and the Hoseasons Diamond Award. To celebrate 20 years, the team plans to mark the occasion with an exciting celebration from Friday, June 12 to Sunday, June 14, with the main celebrations all day long on Saturday, June 13 including giveaways, entertainment and special surprises for guests joining the fun.
Group director of Marine Holiday Park, Rio Williams, was 10 when her parents bought the site and has fond memories of seeing the swimming pool, arcade and play area at the site. She said: For any child, it was a dream come true. I would be brought to work with my mum and dad and be on the caravan park and I'd make friends with all the holiday guests and the owner's children.
We'd be going on bike rides around the park. We'd be going on the playground again. It was like a dream come true because I just felt like I was on holiday every day. Fast-forward to now, and Rio and sister Paris Williams work as group directors of Marine Holiday Park, continuing to welcome thousands of holidaymakers each year and offering family-friendly accommodation, live entertainment, leisure facilities and a packed events programme in the heart of North Wales.
Rio said: It's a great seaside town and are investing a lot in the local area again for people to enjoy. They've got lovely places on the front there where kids and families can go and enjoy themselves. Nothing really beats the seaside holiday. I've lived in North Wales all of my life and I think when you're in the city, there's just nothing quite like it a caravan holiday.
The beaches less than a 15 minute walk away and it's just have that holiday feeling within an hour's journey.
