After a futile attempt to book a room (or two) for a family of five in Amsterdam without breaking the bank, I came across this hotel in the nearby seaside town of Zandvoort. I booked two rooms with trepidation after reading many of the negative reviews. The place turned out to be an incredibly pleasant surprise. The centre of the... More

Rather small park but the facilties are not bad at all and the location (near beach, town, station etc.) makes it a good place to stay near Amsterdam. In fact the smaller site makes things rather more relaxing than larger Center Parcs (in the UK for example) and the staff were all helpful and pleasant enough.. The 'cottage' we had... More

Spent a few days with extended family (2 cottages), including young children. I thought it would be crowded and we would feel too close to neighbours, but it turned out to be great. Kids could run around, go to the pool, walk to the beach and activities, see animals; adults could rent bike and go visit Haarlem; a nice city... More

Sadly - this was the worst Centre Parcs experience ever. Bars supposed to open until 10.30 but on three nights it could have been self service as far as the staff on duty were concerned. On each night at least three other groups faced the same problems as we did - first time it has happened in over 20 plus... More

The people of Holland, remain some of the friendliest people of anywhere I have ever visited. They actually make the holiday! The facilities at Zandvoort are a bit dated in the park, but this is not too bad as the beach and the town of Zandvoort have plenty to entertain. The station is five minutes walk away and Amsterdam is... More

The beach area around Zandvoort was beautiful. The Parc itself however was awful. It was surrounded by concrete housing, very tired and noisy beside the racetrack. We booked a VIP cottage which was expensive and nowwhere near the standard we expected or value for money. It was VERY basic, sofa was worn with flat cushions, tables had the edging missing... More

Despite the many negative comments I have not found many things that I didn't like. The bungalow was completely refurbished except for the bathrooms. The bathrooms were still ok, the porcelain was old but the rest was also new. The park itself was overall very nice. Yes you can be unlucky if you have a crowd of youngsters next to... More

Location is just perfect. Close to the beach, close to nature, close to the race track, close to Amsterdam (by train). But it's looking a little old. Our bungalow was good, but needs an update. Bedrooms were big, with soft beds. Shower was very good. Kitchen has a washing machine, little microwave, coffee/tea can be made and towels and linnen... More

We stayed as a group in three and four bedroom "comfort villas". It was pretty much as expected as we had stayed at a Center Parcs in Belgium before - i.e. some good things, some not so good. The beds were comfortable and sheets nice and thick. Only one bedroom of the four contained a wardrobe and the bathrooms contained... More
