Newly built house with sauna
A good place to stay. We spent a weekend there with 4 adults and 2 dogs. Especially with dogs great, as the property is completely fenced in. The area is quiet, supermarket and beach are accessible by car. The property appealed to us mainly because of the sauna. Overall, we were satisfied, we just lacked a little more attention to detail. Things such as soap, sauna oil, dishwashing cleaners, toilet paper, etc. must be brought with you.

Luxury Chalet Sea Wide View
The location directly on the bay is very nice. The accommodation and the associated outdoor area are very cozy, so you can feel really comfortable there. Unfortunately, the sea was almost unseen during our summer vacation. For bathing, shopping and dining, you depend on the car.

“The Happy Tulip" Cozy, dog-friendly getaway!
We stayed with 4 adults, two babies and dog at Susan's place. Thanks to the good weather, we were able to spend a lot of time outside, use the barbecue and had plenty of space. Everything was very neat and clean, Susan always responsive. The accommodation is conveniently located, the lake within walking distance, two very nice bars as well. Highly recommended for holidays with a dog!

Unique boutique holiday villa by the sea!
nice family stay with enough space

The Amsterdam Chalet at the lake!
Great place and especially great host, Wen was very available, attentive to our requests, and ready to find solutions to the questions we had. I recommend it, and we'll be happy to come back!

strategic place for countless fun excursions
Super great reception we got everything explained superbly. If you have any questions, we got a quick answer, so just great. We didn't miss everything you need is there. A really great cottage where you can relax. The location is super minutes away is a shop, gas station. We will definitely be back

Spacious Dune house, in the dunes, forest and beach.
great host. friendly and concerned about making the stay comfortable. We stopped by for a weekend as a stop on our road trip and the place felt very high end. wide open rooms with comfy beds and pillows and other cool spaces plus a lovely cat 🐈 who is quick to warm up to you. If I was being really harsh it could benefit from a second shower/bath for bigger groups and a bigger driveway but the latter is probably more unique to us have 3 cars for our trip. Also sorting the bins situation in the area was a bit confusing but that's because we care about our waste a lot and don't throw trash in any bin. the area is well maintained and whole neighbourhood is clean.

Thanks for the stay, it was a pleasure staying at your cozy place!
