Oostappen Vakantiepark Parelstrand NV

The people are nice, and the roads are good. Houses are quite cheap but mostly like caravans, and they shake when you move around. The facilities work, though most are old. There’s a mini beach with clean water and a playground on it, plus a second, bigger playground for kids.

The park was clean, and it seems like a good place for a weekend break. But the mobile homes aren’t comfortable: small showers and single beds, and they aren’t suitable for disabled or partly disabled guests. I was told there were two steps at the entrance, but there were actually three, plus a small one at the door. I’ve stayed in much more comfortable mobile homes, even knowing these are just for holidays. Facilities are limited outside the weekend. I got a welcome pack, but nowhere did it say the snackbar/restaurant only opens on weekends. Altogether, it was an uncomfortable holiday.

We’re workers living here, but nobody cares about us. They put three people in a dirty house meant for two, leaving one person to sleep on the sofa. It’s cold and damp, with no radiator. This place deserves zero stars.

I’d warn people away from this Kamping. There aren’t many places, and the internet only works on weekends. The woman at reception knows nothing when you ask, and acts like she’s from another planet, just coming out of a crazy room. I don’t recommend it. Your money ends up in the mud.
