Wikkelhouse and bathtub with sauna - 2 persons

We had a really wonderful weekend together at De Parel. The rooms were clean, and the hot tub was really wonderful. It’s a beautiful and peaceful resort, and everyone was very helpful. Dinner at the restaurant was delicious, and breakfast was also very well organized. All in all, it was a fantastic weekend! We’d definitely come back.

I had a wonderful weekend getaway at Resort De Parel! The self-check-in went smoothly, and upon arrival, the cottage was neat and clean. It was also nice that the beds were already made—it immediately felt like a vacation! The resort looks well-maintained and has a wonderfully peaceful atmosphere. A big plus is the central wellness center, which … you can easily book yourself. After a busy stretch at work, I was really ready for a relaxing weekend, and I definitely found that here. A wonderful place to completely recharge! Read more Show less

Terrible experience and absolutely not worth the price. Although there was a pellet heater, it only heated the immediate area around it to maximum 17°C. The rest of the tent, including the sleeping areas, remained freezing, and we had to wear our jackets indoors. Cold wind and rain also kept coming in because the tent wouldn’t close properly. We … had to use objects to hold it down, but it continued blowing open throughout the night. After more than an hour trying to get assistance, someone eventually came, only to rudely tell us this was simply the maximum the heater could achieve, offering no solution.

The private hot tub, which was the main reason we booked, was completely empty on arrival. We had to clean, fill and heat it ourselves, yet the water remained freezing and completely unusable throughout our stay. As also mentioned by other guests, it takes TWO DAYS for the hot tub to reach a usable temperature. A facility that takes two days to become usable should absolutely not be advertised as an amenity for one-night stays.

Additionally, the kitchen equipment was dirty and not properly cleaned, further adding to the poor standard of the accommodation.

We also struggled to reach staff and were left communicating with an AI chatbot. Despite these significant failures, no compensation or refund was offered. The accommodation failed to deliver the basic comfort, cleanliness and facilities advertised. We felt completely misled and would strongly advise others against booking. Read more Show less

It bills itself as luxury in nature. The accommodations are luxuriously furnished.

The cleaning is subpar and far from spotless. In particular, the bathroom has a shower drain that doesn’t drain properly, just like the sink.

The cleaning staff race through the park, which makes it unsafe. Furthermore, visitors have created their own … parking spots under the trees, and the designated parking lot is practically empty.

Facilities such as the bar and the soccer field are closed or nonexistent. In addition, the park isn’t really well-maintained—something that doesn’t fit with the luxurious image they’re trying to project. Read more Show less

Disappointment.

The location is good, but our water bungalow is just as dirty as everyone else has reported. You can find details about this in the many other reviews; our bungalow isn’t clean either and smells like a dog.

That wouldn’t have bothered us all that much—accommodations in Holland are often a bit cramped.

The food … at the restaurant was delicious, but the portions were very small for the price. Unfortunately, this has become the norm, so I won’t rate it.

BUT: We specifically booked this vacation park because our daughter really wanted to participate in the graffiti workshop that was offered. We had registered well in advance and received multiple confirmations. Once we arrived, however, we discovered that the workshop wasn’t taking place because the organizers had apparently forgotten about it. At the front desk, we received only a brief apology. No alternative solution was offered to us.

Since the workshop was the main reason for our booking, our disappointment is correspondingly great. Our daughter had been really looking forward to it. Especially when it comes to activities that are an important booking criterion for families, we expect reliable organization and appropriate communication.

Unfortunately, our stay did not meet the expectations raised by the offer and the multiple confirmations. We would have liked to see a more professional handling of the situation and an appropriate solution; we will not recommend the park to others and will not be returning. Read more Show less
