reviews

First experience with a tiny house, and what a one. Very nice stay and surroundings. Also very nice place for the winter with stove, sauna and hot tub. Communication with owners very smooth and nice, we would love to come back again!

1. our little cabin We stayed in Cabin 204 in February 2025. All in all, it was fine. The heating worked and it was cozy and warm in the morning. Nevertheless, a warm blanket and hot water bottle made it easier for us to fall asleep. There is only one power socket, we had a distributor with us, which worked quite well. Bed linen was free, we just had to cover and remove it ourselves and take away the garbage and sweep out the hut at the end. Minus point: The beds are very worn and a chair simply collapsed when a 60 kg person sat on it. At least we had something to laugh about. 2. bike rental The bikes cost €15 per day. Example: We rented them at 5:30 pm and had to return them the next day before 11 am. Normal Dutch bikes and ride okay. You pay directly at reception for the length of time you want to hire the bikes. According to maps, it takes about 40 minutes to get to the center of Amsterdam. I don't know what speed Google maps uses as a guide, but it took us over 1 hour. To clarify, we are both in our mid-20s and had a moderate pace and didn't get lost. That's why we only rented the bikes for 2 days. 3. public transportation The connection to the center of Amsterdam is good, takes a little longer than 1 hour. Important to know: There are different public transportation networks, GVB, Conexxion and EBL. Accordingly, you need a ticket that is valid for all of them. There is a ticket machine in the park that sells the appropriate tickets. 4. reception and store The reception has fixed opening hours, check-in and check-out are uncomplicated. Some employees are friendly, others less so, as is the case in life. (Everyone has a bad day) In the store there is a microwave and a "panini grill" (you can see it in the picture). Unfortunately, there is no kettle. We had one ourselves. The store sells all kinds of snacks and drinks and the prices are okay. There is also a coffee machine...but it was never clean. I still got a coffee from there twice and didn't die. (But I can understand if there are people who find it very unappetizing) Also important to know, the store closes quite early, which means you can't get to the microwave if you want to heat up your dinner there. But there is still a barbecue outside, which is definitely cool in summer. 5. sanitary facilities Were not meticulously clean, but not as bad as you sometimes read here. The shower cubicles offered enough space and the fact that the shower only ran for 4 minutes was no drama. Just stop in between and soap up without running water. If you still have shampoo in your hair, you just have to wait another minute in the cold until the 4 minutes start all over again. Of course it's not luxurious, but it's not the end of the world either. Oh yes, you have to bring your own towels or you can rent some, I think it costs €7. There is no hairdryer, but we had one with us. To summarize It wasn't a luxury vacation, but you can't expect that for the price. It's a bit out of town, walks are wonderful, we didn't find the noise of airplanes dramatic. I might even go there again in summer, but I didn't particularly enjoy it in winter because it was just cold. Oh yes, we had left a small cool bag outside the hut to keep things cold. It was stolen on the very first night. If there had been beer in it, I would even have understood. But it was soy yogurt, carrots and tomatoes.

1 night was worthwhile, but actually too short to enjoy all that les Cabanes d'Ostende has to offer. Perfect for a weekend of de-stressing.

Beautiful quiet campsite We stayed there for 8 weeks, Beautiful bike rides. Grandchildren are there a weekend wanted could play and swim nicely. Worth repeating. Already booked for next year.

Fantastic stay at Les Cabanes d'Ostende We stayed two nights at Les Cabanes d'Ostende with our dog Otis and it was simply fantastic. From the moment we arrived we felt the peace and luxury of this wonderful place. The cottage itself is above all standards - high quality materials, stylish furnishings and everything finished to perfection. You can tell that a lot of attention has been paid to comfort and details here. We totally relaxed and really enjoyed the serene atmosphere. Highly recommended for those looking for pure relaxation in a luxurious setting. We will definitely come back!

Beautiful surroundings, unfortunately a lot of fog,cottage was neat reception was very friendly. Will definitely come back here. Is highly recommended. 1minpuntje the WiFi was very bad. Must improve.

Looking for a weekend getaway? Don't look too far! At Les Cabanes in Ostend you will experience a magical stay. Super nice wooden cabins decorated with warm, luxurious materials (even equipped with lecreuset dishes, dyson hairdryer and delonghi coffee machine!) You have an electric bakfiets and an ordinary bicycle at your disposal, you can collect fresh eggs at their Egg Spot on the vacation grounds, pick fresh herbs in the summer, take a splash in the swimming pond or enjoy the warmth in the hot tub or barrel sauna. Would you like to go to the sea? That is also possible, barely 500m the beach already tickles under your feet😉 Moreover, Youri is the ideal host. He and his family welcome you with open arms in this unique vacation concept!

BEST WISHES FOR BEST SERVICE AND ART

Problem-free key handover/collection with corresponding APP, APP is easy to understand with the exception that you have to be able to speak Dutch even if the German language is set, as only the start page has been translated, subsequent pages have not.

Beautiful gardens and extremely friendly staff. Such a joy to be able to take our dog! We were on the point of not renewing our membership because of the NT's anti dog agenda but hopefully this is the start of a new approach to allowing dogs wherever possible. 🤞

A recommander ++++

We had an amazing time at this vacation apartment. The location is unbeatable—right next to the ski lift, which made our skiing trips super easy. Everything went smoothly, and we were able to relax and enjoy ourselves. The apartment was cozy and had everything we needed. The kitchen was fully equipped and made meal prep a breeze. There were also plenty of games, books, and puzzles to keep us entertained. After a day on the slopes, we loved unwinding in the indoor swimming pool and sauna. It was the perfect way to end the day. We’ll definitely be coming back and recommend this place to anyone looking for a great ski getaway!
