We were the only guest in the resort so we had a really good service. It's very quiet and you can do is relaxing and walking on the dunes right behind the resort. The room was spacious and very clean. The food for dinner was very good. As for the breakfast, some fruits or real fruit juice would have been nice. Overall, we really like our stay. ##### Marie-Pier Stayed 1 night in Oct 2023 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### Daoud Gregor Dec 16, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities We had a delightful stay at this hotel. Our spacious and well-maintained room with a balcony was bathed in natural light. The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful, and the food was delicious! The hotel is conveniently located near a dune that you can easily walk up. They also offer exciting activities like dune bashing in a 4x4 or quad bikes, but these come at a higher price point. While the hotel’s location could have been better, as the balcony faces the street, the ambiance at night was peaceful and cozy. Despite this minor flaw, we highly recommend staying here. The cozy rooms and exceptional staff make it a truly memorable experience. ##### Daoud Gregor Stayed 1 night in Dec 2025 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### karim Oct 30, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities l’accueil du personnel, le lieu, les équipements, le repas tout était magnifique ##### karim Stayed 1 night in Oct 2025 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Henrik Feb 23, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Ein sehr schönes Camp.

Schone bungalow met schone lakens en goed werkende douche en airco. Diner en ontbijt uitgebreid maar aan de kwaliteit van het diner zou wat extra aandacht besteed kunnen worden zodat het er wat definieerbaarder uitziet. Geweldige ervaring om duin omhoog te lopen pal achter het terrein om zon te zien ondergaan en opkomen. Wat een rust. ##### R. van Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Egon Jan 10, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort ##### Egon Stayed 1 night in Dec 2024 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### BOUMEDIENE Apr 19, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort ##### BOUMEDIENE Stayed 1 night in Apr 2024
