Perfect holiday for young children
We chose Duinrell as we were seeking close proximity activities to keep our young children busy but with an option to retreat if it all go too much. It didn’t disappoint.
With a 3 and 5 year old - the rides and water park were perfect. We couldn’t go on everything due to their height but there were plenty of larger rides they could try. The queues were really fast (we went in June) and despite there being lots of children due to school trips, the park didn’t feel overly busy.
The water parks were great, with the outside one perfectly suited to our kids ages. The indoor one had rides that were more geared at older kids but still great for the 2 hour slot.
We stayed in the most basic accommodation, which suited our needs but regretted not getting somewhere with air con given how hot it got at night. Having the windows open was a bit noisy for the kids.
The reason for 4.5 stars rather than 5 is the cleanliness of the accommodation. It wasn’t great, with the mattress protector in the kids room brown where it obviously doesn’t get washed as standard. I ended up washing it - and the water was filthy. We also didn’t have a great experience with vegetarian food choice on site.
Overall we loved our holiday and highly recommend. We wouldn’t necessarily go back as we managed to go on every ride more than once and want to explore more holiday location but it was great for the price.
