We were the only guest in the resort so we had a really good service. It's very quiet and you can do is relaxing and walking on the dunes right behind the resort. The room was spacious and very clean. The food for dinner was very good. As for the breakfast, some fruits or real fruit juice would have been nice. Overall, we really like our stay. ##### Marie-Pier Stayed 1 night in Oct 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Henrik 23 Feb 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Ein sehr schönes Camp.

Schone bungalow met schone lakens en goed werkende douche en airco. Diner en ontbijt uitgebreid maar aan de kwaliteit van het diner zou wat extra aandacht besteed kunnen worden zodat het er wat definieerbaarder uitziet. Geweldige ervaring om duin omhoog te lopen pal achter het terrein om zon te zien ondergaan en opkomen. Wat een rust. ##### R. van ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Hotels in Osaka](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Osaka-Hotels.d179897.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Millennium Resort Salalah](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Salalah-Hotels-Millennium-Resort-Salalah.h27523883.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Stefania Boutique Hotel by the Beach](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Olbia-Hotels-Hotel-Stefania-Boutique-Hotel-By-The-Beach.h1314965.Hotel-Information) > > [Ladonia Hotels Delmare - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bodrum-Hotels-Ladonia-Hotels-Delmare-All-Inclusive.h54034003.Hotel-Information) > > [Wyndham Garden Salalah Mirbat](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Mirbat-Hotels-Wyndham-Garden-Salalah-Mirbat.h74207147.Hotel-Information) > > [Six Senses Zighy Bay](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Zighy-Bay-Hotels-Six-Senses-Zighy-Bay.h1688437.Hotel-Information) > > [Mercure Milano Solari](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Milan-Hotels-Mercure-Milano-Solari.h3851675.Hotel-Information) > > [Alila Jabal Akhdar, Oman](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Nizwa-Hotels-Alila-Jabal-Akhdar.h7755939.Hotel-Information) > > [5 Star Hotels in Much Wenlock](https://www.expedia.co.uk/5Star-Much-Wenlock-Hotels.s50-0-d602311.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Barceló Mussanah Resort, Sultanate of Oman](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Musannah-Hotels-Barcelo-Mussanah-Resort.h4100127.Hotel-Information) > > [The Ned NoMad](https://www.expedia.co.uk/New-York-Hotels-The-Ned-Nomad.h4758665.Hotel-Information) > > [Days Inn by Wyndham Gretna Green M74](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Gretna-Hotels-Days-Inn-By-Wyndham-Gretna-Green-M74.h1092978.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Vienna](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Vienna-Hotels.d178316.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Pumba Private Game Reserve](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Grahamstown-Hotels-Pumba-Private-Game-Reserve.h2319463.Hotel-Information) > > [Alila Hinu Bay](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Salalah-Hotels-Alila-Hinu-Bay.h60872511.Hotel-Information) > > [The White Hart Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/St-Albans-Hotels-The-White-Hart-Hotel.h5297004.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Snettisham](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Snettisham-Hotels.d6125402.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Royal Mirage Agadir](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Agadir-Hotels-Royal-Mirage-Agadir.h21956.Hotel-Information) > > [Grand Mercure Khao Lak Bangsak](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Takua-Pa-Hotels-Grand-Mercure-Khao-Lak-Bangsak.h55575315.Hotel-Information) > > [Citadines Montmartre Paris](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Paris-Hotels-Citadines-Montmartre-Paris.h578559.Hotel-Information) > > [Villas Brighton](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Brighton-Villas.d6341302-aaVillas.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) ### Flights > [Flights from Bristol (BRS) to Paris (CDG)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/brs/cdg/bristol-to-paris) > > [Flights from Gatwick (LGW) to Skiathos (JSI)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/lgw/jsi/london-to-skiathos) > > [Flights from Riyadh (RUH) to London (LHR)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/ruh/lhr/riyadh-to-london) ### Activities > [Things to do in Şile](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Things-To-Do-In-Sile.d6139526.Travel-Guide-Activities) > > [Things to do in Zürich](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Things-To-Do-In-Zurich.d4191.Travel-Guide-Activities) ### Packages > [Romania Holidays](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Romania.d151.Holidays-City-Breaks) > > [Jerez de la Frontera Holidays](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Jerez-De-La-Frontera.d3871.Holidays-City-Breaks) ### Holiday Rentals > [Taunton Holiday Rentals](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Taunton-Holiday-Rentals.d5708.Travel-Guide-HolidayRentals) > > [England Holiday Rentals](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Destinations-In-England.d11218.Holiday-Rental-Destinations)
