Treasured Island Rotterdam, South Holland

Property Description

Take a few steps off the beaten track with a stay at this contemporary lodge retreat set just a two-minute drive away (or fifteen-minute stroll) from the vast white sands of Ouddorp on the northern tip of Goeree-Overflakkee island.

Boasting the Netherlands' longest stretch of coastline and vast dune and forest hinterlands prime for bike rides and walking, it's easy to see the draw of this oh-so-family-friendly seaside resort. Dip your toes into the island's village life exploring Ouddorp's historic streets, shops, and local market to pick up supplies. Or, for something a little buzzier, Rotterdam is just a fifty-minute drive away over the bridge.

Though you may find all you need is right here at home. Spend lazy, hazy days hopping between the stylish south-facing sun terrace complete with a hot tub and outdoor shower to beat the heat or sneak away to the garden house for some quiet reading time.

Indoors, this perfectly presented home brings all the Nordic vibes you're chasing, with rustic hues, restful muted interiors, and an obligatory wood-burning fire for winter months. Kids will like the novelty of the bespoke-made bunkbeds. But we think you'll love that sauna off the main bedroom suite with a super king-sized bed just a little bit more.
