The IJssel Islands

We had booked accommodation from Saturday to Tuesday. The other half of the group had arrived at the park later that day due to a funeral of the mother (in law). This was known at the reception as well as the names of this family and the license plate number. Because the pass for the lever did not work this family reported it by phone. Access was refused and car could stay at the reception but they were not allowed to enter the park with the car (with luggage for 5 people). The accommodation itself: not cleaned, the tissues and empty bottles of the previous visitors were on the floor When we wanted to make coffee we first had to throw away the old coffee in the coffee pot. Unfresh smelling and not cleaned bathrooms and the dust clouds that emerged when moving the beds suggest that no attention has been paid to the topic of cleaning, for which guests have to tap € 80.00 after staying anyway. The bedding packages were not complete. We arrived on Saturday. Only on Monday someone was sent to clean the accommodation at a time when normally everyone uses the sanitary facilities. For us, the damage was done: come immediately if something is not right! In addition, we found the layout of the kitchen extremely small for a group of 10-12 people. And what does it cost to buy curtain rolls so that a curtain can just close? So for us not worth repeating

Space outside is beautiful, and the houses look nice, but you can hear the wind a lot. The park’s washing machine is shared by everyone — up to that point… fine. The problem is the price to wash clothes and how badly it washes them. I’m forced to use a specific laundry pod, which means I have to spend even more money. Let’s not even talk about the impossibility of leaving in the middle of the night in an emergency because the gate simply doesn’t open and nobody answers the phone. I had to call a friend to take me and my daughter to the hospital. I was very close to breaking that gate in half. I won’t even mention the towels provided by the cleaning staff that came with dark stains. And finally, the oven broke, and what they replaced it with was a microwave. The house wasn’t cheap, and I paid 100% upfront. The service they provide… if it reaches 50%, that’s already a lot. I also looked into the policies for buying a house there, and I can’t even stay in a house that I bought whenever I want. I have to inform the park and ask permission if I want to go there. I do not recommend it at all.
