Why Australia’s Leading Holiday Parks Continue to Choose Jumping Pillows®

If there’s one attraction that has changed the Australian holiday park industry over the past two decades, it’s the humble Jumping Pillow®.

Today, it’s difficult to imagine a successful family-focused holiday park without one. Kids make a beeline for it the moment they arrive, parents appreciate having a safe outdoor activity that keeps children entertained for hours, and park owners know it’s one of those rare investments that delivers genuine long-term value.

My kids when they were younger would be dis-appointed if they didn’t see the familiar colors of the Jumping Pillow as we rolled into a Holiday Park.

What many people don’t realise, however, is that not all jumping pillows are created equal.

For more than 20 years, Jumping Pillows® Australia has been setting the benchmark for the industry. Established in 2003, the company has become the original specialist supplier to Australia’s holiday and caravan park sector, with more than 1,000 installations across Australia and over 9,000 worldwide.

Their products can now be found in holiday parks, resorts, schools, council playgrounds, sporting clubs and recreational facilities around the globe.

More Than Just a Playground Feature

Experienced park operators, especially those wanting to draw more families to their Park, know today’s guests are looking for memorable experiences rather than simply somewhere to stay.

A Jumping Pillow® has become one of those iconic attractions families actively search for when choosing where to book their next holiday. In many parks, it’s one of the first amenities featured on the website, in brochures and across social media because operators know it helps convert enquiries into bookings.

It’s easy to understand why.

Unlike many playground installations that appeal only to a narrow age group, Jumping Pillows® provide entertainment for children of varying ages simultaneously, with many parks also seeing teenagers, and even adults (I have jumped on many!) joining in the fun.

One long-time holiday park customer summed it up perfectly:

“Our Jumping Pillow has been a great success with all ages and also with the disabled which was just wonderful to see.” – Kelso Sands Caravan Park, Tasmania.

Experience Matters

As with any major infrastructure investment, experience counts.

Jumping Pillows® Australia has spent decades refining both its products and installation methods. The company supplies equipment certified and installed to Australian and New Zealand Standard AS3533.4.2, while also incorporating features such as internal rubber shock pads, quality PVC materials designed for Australian conditions, and installation methods developed through thousands of successful projects.

Just as importantly, they don’t simply sell a product—they work alongside park owners from the earliest planning stages.

Whether it’s choosing the ideal location, determining the most suitable size, discussing site preparation, understanding compliance requirements or planning future expansion, the team has likely encountered a similar project before.

That depth of knowledge is one of the reasons they continue to enjoy such a strong reputation throughout the Australian holiday park industry.

Designed for Park Operators

Holiday park owners have enough to worry about without installing attractions that demand constant attention.

One of the strengths of the Jumping Pillows® system is its practical design.

The attractions feature relatively low ongoing maintenance requirements, can often be installed and operational in as little as a day (weather permitting), are available in multiple standard sizes as well as custom configurations, and can even be installed indoors where appropriate. The company also provides comprehensive after-sales support, replacement components and practical maintenance advice throughout the life of the product.

That combination of durability and ongoing support makes them an attractive long-term investment for operators wanting maximum return with minimal disruption.

A Partner to the Industry

Perhaps one of the biggest reasons Jumping Pillows® has remained an industry leader isn’t simply the product itself—it’s the people behind it.

They’ve been active supporters of Australia’s holiday park industry for many years, regularly attending caravan park conferences, trade exhibitions and industry events, where they’re known for sharing practical advice rather than delivering hard sales pitches.

Speak with many operators who have worked with the team and you’ll hear a similar story: they’re approachable, knowledgeable and happy to discuss ideas, site challenges and future possibilities, regardless of whether a project is ready to proceed immediately.

That consultative approach has helped build long-standing relationships across the industry and explains why so many park owners continue to recommend them.

An Investment That Keeps Delivering

Holiday parks constantly evaluate where their next capital investment should go.

Should it be another cabin? A swimming pool upgrade? More powered sites? New amenities?

While every park has different priorities, attractions that genuinely enhance the guest experience often provide some of the strongest long-term returns.

A quality Jumping Pillow® delivers exactly that.

It encourages longer stays within the park, creates memorable family experiences, generates fantastic user-generated social media content and gives prospective guests another compelling reason to choose your park over the one down the road.

For operators wanting to strengthen their family offering, it’s easy to see why Jumping Pillows® has become one of Australia’s most recognised holiday park attractions.

After more than two decades servicing the industry, they’re still helping parks create the kinds of experiences families remember long after they’ve packed up the caravan.

For many operators, that’s exactly the sort of investment worth making.
