The Wilhelminaplein, also known as the Zaailand, is the beating heart of the city with countless events and activities. Explore the historic city center with its unique stores and cozy cafes, or take a relaxing boat ride along the canals. Leeuwarden is a city where history meets modernity.

    It was a blissful time for us at Europarcs Hindeloopen. Peace and quiet, low season admittedly, in very pleasant surroundings. Beautiful accommodations that are well equipped. And friendly service at the reception. Perfect base to explore the area there.

    Het was voor ons een zalige tijd bij Europarcs Hindeloopen. Rust en stilte, laagseizoen weliswaar, in een zeer aangename omgeving. Mooie accommodaties die goed voorzien zijn. En vriendelijke bediening aan de receptie. Perfecte uitvalsbasis om de streek daar te gaan verkennen.

    Very friendly staff at reception. The resort itself doesn't have much to offer. But if you are looking for peace and quiet, you are in good hands here. Our house was in the first row directly on the shore. The view was really wonderful! But as soon as we opened the house, the vacation joy was gone. There must have been 20 flies in the living room and the windows looked as if they had never been cleaned. Some of the comforters had stains. Dust under the bed as if it had never been vacuumed. However, the furnishings were well furnished. There were 10 of us. Everyone had room. For the little ones there is an indoor playground, several small outdoor play equipment and a bouncy cushion. All the play equipment was well maintained. Actually a nice facility with a lot of potential. But more attention should be paid to cleanliness.

    Sehr freundliche Mitarbeiter am Empfang. Die Anlage selber hat nicht viel zu bieten. Wer die Ruhe sucht ist aber hier gut aufgehoben. Unser Haus war in erste Reihe direkt am Ufer. Der Ausblick war wirklich wundervoll! Aber direkt nach dem öffnen des Hauses, war die Urlaubsfreude weg. Bestimmt 20 Fliegen im Wohnzimmer, die Fenster sahen aus, als hätten sie noch nie eine Reinigung gehabt. Oberbetten hat teilweise Flecken. Unter dem Bett Staub, als wäre dort noch nie gesaugt worden. Von der Einrichtung her allerdings gut eingerichtet. Wir waren zu 10 da. Alle hatten Platz. Für die kleinen ist ein Indoorspielplatz, mehre kleine Outdoor Spielgeräte und ein Hüpfkissen vorhanden. Alle Spielgeräte waren gepflegt. Eig eine schöne Anlage mit viel Potenzial. Aber auf die Sauberkeit sollte doch vermehrt geachtet werden.
