Summary created out of 1859 reviews

Bospark Ede is praised by guests for its beautiful forested location in the heart of the Veluwe, with direct forest access from the park. Staff at reception, restaurant and snack bar are consistently described as friendly and helpful. Guests appreciate the modern lodges, welcome package and tranquillity. However, there are clear areas for improvement: cleaning often falls short (dust, cobwebs, unclean sanitary facilities), and communication about construction work is perceived as insufficient, causing disturbance. Limited privacy due to housing density and navigation issues within the park are also recurring concerns.

    As others have already mentioned: Beware of the inaccurate information and deliberate misrepresentations on the website. We wanted to book a three-bedroom house and picked one out on the website. When we arrived, we were given a two-bedroom house. One of the rooms, however, had three beds in it. When we complained, we were told that it’s always … stated that the photos don’t necessarily match the actual houses. Sure, that refers to the wall color and the sofa—but certainly not to an entire room being missing! That was a deliberate deception on the website. They said the park was fully booked and they couldn’t rebook us, so we ended up paying a higher price than usual for two bedrooms, and one person had to sleep on the floor in the living room.

    Wie andere auch schon: Achtung vor den falschen Angaben und bewussten Täuschungen auf der Webseite. Wir wollten ein Haus mit drei Schlafzimmern buchen und haben uns auf der Webseite eines rausgesucht. Vor Ort bekamen wir ein Haus mit zwei Schlafzimmern. In einem Zimmer waren dann dafür drei Betten eingebaut. Es hieß bei Reklamation, dass immer dabei steht, dass die Fotos nicht unbedingt den Häusern entsprechen. Klar, damit ist die Wandfarbe und das Sofa gemeint aber sicher nicht, dass ein ganzes Zimmer fehlt! Das war eine bewusste Täuschung auf der Webseite. Der Park wäre ausgebucht, man könne uns nicht umbuchen und so haben wir für zwei Schlafzimmer einen höheren Preis als sonst bezahlt und eine Person durfte im Wohnzimmer auf dem Boden schlafen.

    Over 1,000 € for a family vacation—serious hygiene issues, poor service, and hardly any privacy!

    We booked a vacation home with a hot tub at Bospark Ede for a week. We had actually hoped to spend a nice, relaxing vacation in the Netherlands with our family. Unfortunately, it turned out to be nothing but a … disappointment.

    Right upon our arrival, the hygienic condition of the accommodation was appalling.

    In the bathroom, there was hair in the drain, a completely filthy toilet brush, and even traces of feces on the toilet seat. On top of that, there were numerous cobwebs, dust on the furniture and surfaces, dirty doors and windows, and greasy, filthy kitchen lights.

    We seriously wonder how a vacation rental can be handed over to new guests in this condition.

    The promised follow-up cleaning was also a disappointment.

    After we complained about the conditions at the front desk, we were promised a thorough follow-up cleaning. However, as far as we could tell, this was limited to just a few areas in the bathroom. Most of the dirt remained. Not even the floors were properly vacuumed.

    The hot tub was also heavily soiled.

    Although we had filled it ourselves with fresh water, flushing the hot water supply stirred up significant amounts of dirt and sediment.

    For hygiene reasons, we did not want to use the hot tub in that condition. Only after we filed another complaint was it cleaned for about two hours, which further limited our ability to use it.

    And even on the last day of our vacation, there was another unpleasant surprise.

    While we were staying at the vacation home, an employee suddenly entered our rented outdoor area unannounced and went to the hot tub to refill it with diesel.

    We are well aware that such facilities require maintenance. However, we expect that such work will at least be announced in advance during a guest’s stay. A little consideration for guests’ privacy should go without saying.

    The entire handling of our complaints was particularly disappointing.

    Over several days, we had to photograph the mess, write numerous emails, and repeatedly ask for a solution.

    The compensation also turned into a full-blown negotiation. Initially, we were offered a mere €47.75 or a €50 gift card. After further complaints, the offer was initially increased to €139.

    Only after several emails did we finally agree on a refund of €201, which was actually transferred to our account.

    To be fair, it must be said that Bospark Ede ultimately agreed to a financial settlement and reliably processed the refund.

    However, this does not change the fact that there were significant hygiene issues, inadequate cleaning, and repeated disruptions during our stay.

    We don’t expect luxury. But anyone who pays over €1,000 for a family vacation is entitled to at least clean accommodations, a hygienically safe hot tub, and respectful handling of their complaints.

    Our conclusion: We would have preferred to pay the full price of the trip and enjoy a relaxing vacation instead of having to spend days arguing about cleanliness and compensation.

    For us, this stay was a huge disappointment. Booking another stay at Bospark Ede is out of the question for us.

    Über 1.000 € für einen Familienurlaub – erhebliche Hygienemängel, mangelhafter Service und kaum Privatsphäre!

    Wir haben für eine Woche ein Ferienhaus mit Hot Tub im Bospark Ede gebucht. Eigentlich wollten wir mit unserer Familie einen schönen, entspannten Urlaub in den Niederlanden verbringen. Leider wurde daraus eine einzige Enttäuschung.

    Bereits bei unserer Ankunft war der hygienische Zustand der Unterkunft erschreckend.

    Im Badezimmer befanden sich Haare im Abfluss, eine völlig verdreckte Klobürste und sogar Fäkalienreste an der Toilettenbrille. Hinzu kamen zahlreiche Spinnweben, Staub auf Möbeln und Oberflächen, verschmutzte Türen und Fenster sowie fettige und verdreckte Küchenlampen.

    Wir fragen uns ernsthaft, wie eine Ferienunterkunft in diesem Zustand an neue Gäste übergeben werden kann.

    Die zugesagte Nachreinigung war ebenfalls eine Enttäuschung.

    Nachdem wir die Zustände an der Rezeption bemängelt hatten, wurde uns eine gründliche Nachreinigung versprochen. Nach unserem Eindruck beschränkte sich diese jedoch auf wenige Bereiche im Badezimmer. Die meisten Verschmutzungen blieben bestehen. Nicht einmal die Böden wurden ordentlich durchgesaugt.

    Auch der Hot Tub war stark verschmutzt.

    Obwohl wir ihn selbst mit frischem Wasser befüllt hatten, wurden beim Spülen des Warmwasserzulaufs erhebliche Mengen an Schmutz und Ablagerungen aufgewirbelt.

    Aus hygienischen Gründen wollten wir den Hot Tub in diesem Zustand nicht nutzen. Erst nach einer erneuten Beschwerde wurde er rund zwei Stunden lang gereinigt, wodurch seine Nutzung zusätzlich eingeschränkt war.

    Und selbst am letzten Urlaubstag gab es wieder eine unangenehme Überraschung.

    Während wir uns im Ferienhaus aufhielten, betrat plötzlich ein Mitarbeiter unangekündigt unseren gemieteten Außenbereich und ging zum Hot Tub, um dort Diesel nachzufüllen.

    Uns ist durchaus bewusst, dass solche Anlagen gewartet werden müssen. Allerdings erwarten wir, dass solche Arbeiten während eines laufenden Aufenthalts zumindest vorher angekündigt werden. Ein wenig Rücksicht auf die Privatsphäre der Gäste sollte selbstverständlich sein.

    Besonders enttäuschend war der gesamte Umgang mit unseren Beschwerden.

    Über mehrere Tage mussten wir Verschmutzungen fotografieren, zahlreiche E-Mails schreiben und immer wieder um eine Lösung bitten.

    Auch die Entschädigung entwickelte sich zu einer regelrechten Verhandlung. Zunächst wurden uns gerade einmal 47,75 € oder ein Gutschein über 50 € angeboten. Nach weiteren Beschwerden erhöhte sich das Angebot zunächst auf 139 €.

    Erst nach mehreren E-Mails einigten wir uns schließlich auf eine Rückerstattung von 201 €, die auch tatsächlich überwiesen wurde.

    Fairerweise muss man sagen, dass Bospark Ede am Ende einer finanziellen Einigung zugestimmt und die Rückzahlung zuverlässig durchgeführt hat.

    Das ändert allerdings nichts an den erheblichen Hygienemängeln, der unzureichenden Nachreinigung und den wiederholten Störungen während unseres Aufenthalts.

    Wir erwarten keinen Luxus. Aber wer über 1.000 € für einen Familienurlaub bezahlt, darf zumindest eine saubere Unterkunft, einen hygienisch nutzbaren Hot Tub und einen respektvollen Umgang mit seinen Beschwerden erwarten.

    Unser Fazit: Wir hätten lieber den vollständigen Reisepreis bezahlt und dafür einen erholsamen Urlaub erlebt, statt tagelang über Sauberkeit und Entschädigungen diskutieren zu müssen.

    Für uns war dieser Aufenthalt eine große Enttäuschung. Eine erneute Buchung im Bospark Ede kommt für uns nicht infrage.

    It really lives up to its name—it's a great park. The only thing missing is a real park store; the 24-hour vending machine doesn't really work.
