Oranjerie + Residence

We were 2 families in a Duingalow this summer. One family of 2 adults and 2 children, and a family of 2 adults and 1 child. We had a great holiday, but were a little disapointet in the Tikibad. First of all the changing rooms where totally confusing to find your way around. No female and male changing, so that it wasn't possible to wash yourself with soap, with no swimwear on, before you go in. Making it a bit disgusting thinking of all the people not thoroughly washing themselves before entering Tikibad. And that we needed to go home to the Duingalow in our swimwear afterwards to take a proper shower. And we think that paying for a holiday for 7 days, and only getting 4 times in Tikibad was too little. We know that we could pay to get more, but that was way to expensive, when we were so many. We also wished that we could separate us, because 2 people wanted to go outside and some wanted to go inside. But we didn't want to use 2 of our tickets to do that. It should be possible when one ticket is for 7 people. It could also be nice with some bracelets to go in and out instead of being dependant of one person to scan all in and out. Now we don't now how many people could be in Tikibad at the same time, but it was nice that it wasn't overcrowded. The amusementpark was great. Not long lines by any attraction. Bonus info: I was on holiday by you 25 years ago with my mom, dad, sister and brother. I was 13 y.o. at the time. And I remembered it as a great place to be. That's why I i wanted to bring my own family, and our freinds. I remembered many of the attracions at the amusementpark, so it was a little funny to be back again :-)

Tikibad and Duinrell amusement park are super fun but the overall facilities including the duingalows are pretty old and the duingalows for 6 people were very small even for a 3 people family like us.

We loved our experience at Duinrell. Plenty of activities for kids to do, we easily spent a week here with four kids ranging from teenagers to 5 years old. Everyone was entertained and thoroughly enjoyed the experience. The place is well run, however there were a few things that could be improved on. Firstly on arrival early to the park we were unable to get any lockers to hold our luggage until our Duingalow was available. Given that we are a large family of six with a lot of suitcases, we felt this was not great, and despite being able to avail of the parks activities from early in the day, we missed out due to having to sort out and watch our luggage until we could leave it in the accommodation. We also felt that the food court and public area in and around it was a bit tired and could do with a bit of an upgrade. We were not in that area so much, that it didn't really matter but i feel had it been a more attractive area, we may have utilized it more. These things are relatively minor, but did perhaps stop me from giving a full 5* in my rating

Close to small town with lovely restaurants. Very clean and safe. The ‘free’ use of amusement park is superb. Indoor swimming area is great and has lots of slides and pools for a variety of people.

Great location, great facilities. We stayed in a duingalow - perfect for our family of 5 with 3 teenagers. Only complaint was it could have been cleaner especially in view of the cost.

The weather was great so this may have added to the experience for ourselves. But everything was great. From the accomdation to the parks and pools. Ive been reconmending it too anyone with kids. Although the height restrictions can be a let down on some of the rides. Mostly above 120cm is good

Really loved our holiday there - the only thing that for me would mark it down is the booking system and access to pools. I understand it’s a busy place and needed but it’s a stressful rush to get yourself dressed and out plus would like the option to go to the pool everyday without huge. Barges added on. The town of wassenaar was such a pleasant surprise - such a beautiful wee place.

good accommodation. very clean park and plenty of things to do and some good places to eat the tiki pool is great

Brilliant holiday for kids. Would recommended staying in one of the more modern cabins. I’ve stayed before when you had unlimited pool time , which wasn’t the case this time. Stayed 11 nights & ended up paying for 6 people at €20 euro each so €120 for 2hrs pool time on 3 occasions as my children love the pool so much and we don’t really go to the theme park. €360 euro. We also paid for the outside pool on 2 days as it was so hot in the park. Apart from the pool cost, everything else is great. We hired bikes ( which I think is a must!) We visited Amsterdam , the beach and a few other places. Getting around with public transport is extremely easy and very cheap. From the airport to Duinrell is very easy to navigate. We will come back - this is our 5th visit. Winter is also a lovely time to visit Duinrell.

Second time visiting and will come again. Loads to do, clean and safe environment, staff always friendly and helpful.

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.

We enjoyed our holiday at Duinrell. Is exactly what it says on the tin. We stayed in a duingalow which was ideal for us and was in a nice quiet area of the park. Theme park had lots to suit our children 10, 7 and 4. Water park can get busy and we made the mistake of going at 8pm thinking it would be quieter. It was full of rude and rambunctious teenagers. Don't go then if you have little ones.

We loved the park and the rides, the waterpark was also great fun. The only slight negatives were the amount of litter that was never picked up and the accommodation which was slightly underwhelming for the price.

We had a lovely stay for five nights during UK Half Term holiday. The set-up / integration of holiday home and camping options was very good plus easy access to the amusement park & Tikibad (which was a family favourite). We were, however, disappointed at the condition and cleanliness of the camping facilities; the camping kitchens, toilets and showers which looked like they'd rarely (if ever) had a proper professional clean, let alone the daily cleaning you'd expect at UK campsites. As a result we used our own motorhome facilities for the entire duration - we were lucky to have these but would have been disappointed if we were in a tent and not had the same luxury to do so. Otherwise a lovely stay and I'm sure we'll be back at some point.

I was amazed that there were no towels, a chopping board or more drying areas for wet clothes in our accommodation. In addition we had to make the beds and remove all the bedding. We paid a lot of money but essentially had to clean up after ourselves as well. Finally, there was 1 toilet roll in our house for 5 of us for 3 days and no hand soap in the bathrooms. This is all very disappointing. We can get better quality accommodation elsewhere so we won't be booking Duinrell again unfortunately. Slides and theme park were great but I wouldn't recommend the accommodation.

Every interaction we had with staff at Duinrell was excellent: everyone was helpful, kind and positive. The campsite was clean and functional. We were lucky to have lots of space and appreciated the green grass. The campsite is brilliantly located for combining culture and cities with the beach and amusement park.
