Centerparcs Reviews

We were in a Center Parc for the first time and so it was the last time. First of all, we left before the end of the holiday! For the first time in 27 years of vacation around the world!

In general, the park is relatively outdated, but that didn't bother us primarily. The Market Dome is nicely arranged, it should be mentioned that the supermarket is very shabby and does not invite you to buy groceries, especially since 3 out of 5 refrigerated counters are open. For whatever reason.
I would like to positively highlight the restaurent nonnas, very nice service, great food, nice atmosphere!

In general, one can say about the restaurents: take money with you, lots and lots of money! In the grill there are burgers for 20 with salad and fries, if you think you get an xxl burger you are mistaken! Normal servings.
All you hab eat restaurent just under 28 per person. Just as an insight.
For the fact that it should be a family home, the prices have washed up!

The pictures from aquamundo increased our anticipation for the holiday. Here I have to say, I have no comparison to other parcs, but we were very disappointed.
I would have welcomed warm water in February. Slides are ok, but it's smaller than our small town water park!

We booked the VIP house with sauna and whirlpool. Both worked. Included on arrival were dirty handkerchiefs under the bed, socks were also in the closet from the landlord, as well as a number of bits and pieces and rubbish we found everywhere in the house.
Did you clean here? I don't know, because on the card for rating the house, a woman introduced herself who cleaned the neighboring house. She cleaned house 453 and am I satisfied? I don't know, I was never in this house. We have a different house number.

They probably tried to renovate here, plaster that had fallen off was simply painted over, the holes are now colored. Mold was painted over in the bathroom! Unfortunately he is coming through again.

Bread service in the morning was included, the rolls were inedible and hard, but what the heck. The rolls taste better at every petrol station.

What's positive? The fireplace was nice, unfortunately you have to pay again here. According to the park, for safety reasons, wood is only allowed to be used for heating with wood from the market, of course wood is wood but German as we are, we kept to it.

13.50 for 8 wood chips pressed, burned after 3 hours ...
Of course we left the heating on while walking the dogs, it rained pouring down, was cold and very stormy during the days.
When we came home it was still 16 degrees in the house, you can imagine how long it took until it was warm in the house every time.

According to the description in the Center Parcs manual, the heating switches itself off if it does not detect any movement in the house after 20 minutes or if the light is switched off.
So we left a light on the first night it was cold outside !!!
Unfortunately also in the house in the morning, so the one with the light didn't work.

So if I also have to freeze in the house, then it stops! We left a lot of money for a week out of season! And the icing on the cake were uninvited animals in the bedroom!
The ear grinders kept coming to bed. So that we left.

We really have enough of it. The money was thrown out and we are annoyed about it. In addition, we are newly married and the couple wanted to relax there for a week the next day!
Thanks for digesting it!

To end it all on a positive note, the staff are all very friendly and the park is really clean! There are also many activities for the little ones.

Good accommodation, but swimming pool very crowded ..
Otherwise ok. Green areas could be more well maintained.

Center Parcs has given the term Premium a different meaning, a refined garden bench as furniture inside, a cramped living space and a fair amount of bugs in the corners of every room, especially near the ceilings. The WiFi was present, but you could connect because the number of IP addresses had run out. At the reception they thought this was logical because the park was busy and moreover "it is now free and in the past you had to pay for it". My response that they know in advance how busy it can be at the park and that they advertise that they rent including internet access, they shrugged. They would be harassing someone to see if they could fix it. The technical service has proforma reset the router, but that has of course not solved anything.
The preferred location of the cottage was also a disappointment, based on the map of the park, we had chosen a location close to a pedestrian exit closer to the beach. Unfortunately they had closed the exit with a gate because of corona. Apparently fences are very effective in fighting the virus.
All in all, only the price we paid was premium, next time have a look at Roompot or something like that.

Prices are exorbitant to high, but the park, the view and nature is awesome. Unfortunately I have to say I am technically more accustomed to the Grill by the Park Parc restaurant, giving the impression of a McDonald's dirty tables and cutlery. However, the food is excellent.

Beautifully located Center Parc by the sea. Fancy houses with a really nice harbor for sailboats and yachts. Evening program "Xtra Ordinario" is a nice sequel to the old show "Straordinario". Only the signs in the park are a bit confusing and you have a bit of trouble finding your house when you arrive. For that one should consider the corresponding parking plan exactly before! But no reason to leave a star out. Gladly again!

The cottage was fine. With three older friends, we enjoyed the quiet location at the edge of the forest. The sun beds have served well. Both on the balcony and the terrace!
The beds were good. The kitchen equipment fine as well as the equipment.
Tip. Perhaps the information about the opening and show times can be in a somewhat larger font. It can hardly be read.

Nice clean park with many children's activities. Nice area on the coast. Always something to do. Swimming pool available.

there are plenty of activities to do and is beautiful

Very nice area for cycling, water and beach sports or to visit surrounding cities. Also good Park with a large subtropical swimming pool and various options for eating.

The whole area is actually nice, but a bit old. Many guests are here with dogs. We think that's good in principle, we like dogs. However, many do not manage to eliminate the dog's urgency. Our house was only superficially clean. One or the other corners could be cleaned a bit better. The value for money of the restaurants is not necessarily true. We found it too expensive in relation to the quality. Thursday came a pizza bus should be until 21:00 clock there. Unfortunately, he was already sold out at 20:00. The in-house Italian was closed. The supermarket also closes at 20:00. That's just the way Hamburgers stay. Summary: nice facility for self-supply. Be sure to bring your own bike. All additional services are relatively expensive.

Nice and well-kept park with a wonderful swimming pool. Within walking distance of the sea and the grevelingenmeer where you can walk or get a breath of fresh air.

A fun bath that has gotten old. Various slides, wave pool, children's fun pool and a bistro are available.

Park from the sixties. Our waterfront home is very dark and small. Everything is dated. What you should definitely not do is eat at the All you can eat restaurant. Rarely seen and tasted such dirty food. Operation is nice by the way. Also in the stores

A nice park the restaurants leave their wishes and the prices there are quite high.

Good park. Enough to do for young and old. Sometimes a bit outdated. Beach is close by.

The bungalow was a bit outdated. The bedroom was in dire need of renovation. Perhaps some more electric bikes provided!

Relaxing and exotic. Market in ouddoorp on Tuesdays.

Nice park nice surroundings, but small downside is that the snacks are outdated

Beautifully situated Center Parc, situated between Gevelingmeer and the North Sea.

Kinderferienhaus is great, but unfortunately the Activity Board is mounted too high, so my over one-meter-tall three-year-old son hardly came off.

Still booked this park again for June

And very nice park and fun entertainment! Often, however, a very long wait for your drink at the grand cafe.

Nice service, plaza was messy.
Too bad that not all products are fresh, mass of food.

Visit in May 2019. Everything as described. Check in very quickly. House was very clean except for the upper bathroom. A few (2-3) hairs in the shower. Otherwise everything is perfect and in good to very good condition.
The range of activities is very diverse and the on-site dining options are recommended.
Location right on the lake with a great view.
The entire park was very clean, well-kept and tidy. The second point of criticism after the hair in the shower was the overcrowded waste collection points. For these reasons there is unfortunately a star deduction.
Another visit will definitely follow.

Fine location for a weekend away with small children.

Beautiful ingrown Parc, very low vehicle movements compared to other CP's, absolutely great playgrounds clean and as good as new. Orry made a lot of effort and arrived well with the kids. Otherwise, there was something new to discover at each park.
We had a 6-person Premium Cottage Zone 7 (renewed Type PZ984).
[Note: got an advertisement today claiming that all the cottages have been renewed!]
The kitchenette is very lavish with dishes and even an oven. The bathroom is huge and equipped with a shower and sink, but this space is missing in the rest of the house. The only toilet is a renovated disaster, even in a plane more spacious. Way too narrow. And a toilet is missing on the first floor. To make matters worse, the wobbly, narrow and noisy spiral staircase, which informs the neighbors about each person's bedtime, otherwise reversed. We would not take this cottage (type) again!
Our heater was broken and was quickly repaired on demand.
The Aqua Mundo has also disappointed us!

It's the twelvest time we are here and enjoyed it every time. The new water playground is great, especially for junger children.

A beautiful family park with plenty of opportunities for business.

What a beautiful place, close to the North Sea, on the Grevelingermeer, beautiful park neat and tidy.
We have nice days, despite the corona crisis we enjoy our holiday here, and we do that under the autumn sun, Thanks!

We have been going to the Meerdal for many years
This year for the first time to port zelande.
Several things were not in order.
For a high season that costs extra, the expectations are also somewhat higher.
Supermarket shelves were always empty warehouse on the other hand packed.
Cleaning minimal .... sad that the staff are given little time to do better.
Restaurant donna 's long waiting times few people but still staff could not give dessert anymore kitchen closed.
7:15 pm reserved very unfortunate.
And to be honest, we do not recognize this from centerparcs. ...... booked full week so ...
Premium 6 person bungalow .... So it also costs something ....

The spotifaais have nothing more to say about it, so bad was the stay.

mvg, the spotifaais

Hi the place is super nice the houses are also great except for a two experiences in terms of cleanliness give a few minus points

I think it's pretty old, very small bathtub for -2 years. There were far too many people within you constantly bumping into other swimmers

One of the worst places to spend with kids. Other than the location, absolutely nothing was good about it. Bad apartment, bad rooms, sticky and unclean. Facilities are bad and outdated. Also with the Corona measures now, nothing was done to accomodate the 1.5 m rule. We had many incidents as well. At 2 am some kids came and started our TV on full volume (with their remote control), we woke up terrified. Management tried to control the situation but according to them, the park is full of "rich kids" who usually go to Majorca or Ibiza, but this year because of the Corona, their parents brought them here and left them. The park was full of loud filthy drunk 16 year olds who lost control. We even heard about cases where they threw eggs at people's apartments. The park doesn't seem to be able to handle these kids and it seems like it will cost them.

Pros: Environment (marina, beach, Aquamundo).
Downsides: Cleanliness of the accommodation (current and old cobwebs), cleanliness of the tables in the restaurant (for example, during breakfast buffet or in the cafe), Required immediate / advance payments for orders in the cafe.

Pleasant to do but still old houses
Full of cobwebs not renovated properly

Nice, although the pool is a bit dated and relatively expensive. We thought a day of swimming at the Eemhof was more fun.

Nice that there are finally some innovations such as a children's farm.
Furthermore, excellent location, accommodations and activities

Short vacation from 08/18 - 08/21 2017
just perverted-geilo
we booked number 582 just awesome the shack downstairs was living room with kitchen in the entrance area we had a toilet with the patio door open we could look out over the water on the first floor there were two rooms with double beds a toilet and a beautiful bathroom at the top was then another room with 2 terraces on one side sun in the morning on the other side sun in the evening what more could you want the aqua mundo we also really liked the wild water course could be a bit faster but we don't make a minus point we had a lot of fun in the swimming pool
the way to the beach was only a stone's throw away, unfortunately, far too many stunt kites and mats but that's the way it is at the kite beach to sunbathe we went to renesse we would book there again anytime unfortunately we can only give 5 stars otherwise we would give 5 more

The house is neat and very nice to go with the family you can do many activities with everyone

Ideal holiday base for sailing trips on the Grevelingenmeer

An old park, but everything is being repaired. Compared to other central parks, there are not many outdoor playgrounds, not such a big pool ...

A beautiful park on the North Sea. The bungalow has been renovated and is functional. We would go back here again.

Beautiful place, nice well laid out perfect for children, located in front of the sea bike rides are auspicious, the pool is functional and very clean, the wild river top.
Only downside staff are often overwhelmed in the service of restaurants or bars ...
We will repeat the experience

Not nice view from the house and bank without meaning.

I stayed here in late January 2020 in an 8-person premium cottage.
The cottage was spacious enough and was clean. A slightly stricter lighting is allowed.
The park itself is very clean.
The pool is nice. The new water playground was appreciated by the children. However, the turbo slide is a bit risky for very light children (risk of turning over with the belt, which means that they will complete the course in the slide without a tire). On Saturdays it can be quite busy in the swimming pool (especially in the whitewater course).
As in all CenterParcs parks, eating and drinking there is far too expensive (here they take an example from Roompot).

Very pretty park with water connection and no private beach

Great for relaxing, even in bad weather is offered for the whole family something. Price and performance are also correct. The staff helps you with everything

Nice houses nice pool only wild water course is not really wild a child of 4 can go in and then even without armbands and also a pity that it is not close to the sea but it is very nice restaurants and terraces but the house where I was there was a room and if you went up there with your head then you bumped your head against that lamp but a must do this park

Beautiful park, the indoor pool is too small for so many guests. That's why it's often overcrowded. Beautiful beaches within walking distance in 20 minutes.

Hello we were there 2 of 4 days on Pentecost 2019.
Our house was ok, front gardens neglected. It was not suitable for families because we felt as if we were at the Ballermann.
We were met again and again by stinky, drunk, roaring groups, some of which could no longer walk.
Directly outside the restaurant the "adults" sat with loud music (swear words), cigarettes and cans of beer, and that during the time when the children want to look at the goats or play on the playground.
The restaurants were very expensive, the pizzeria was a great welcome, but after the first order you were quickly forgotten.
Unfortunately, we left after 2 nights.

Very good but only the apartment is a little dirty on arrival

Bit small, slow wild water slide but still fun overall.

As a swimming mistress, I have to say that I've never seen such a dirty bathroom. When was the last thorough cleaning here, 25 years ago? My children both tore the front of their big toes so that we couldn't go into water for two days. Lots of sharp edges.
The houses are okay, but the spiral stairs are very questionable. Even the not fully functioning stair gate does not help if the child can climb into the steps from behind. Kitchen and bathroom ok.
Few opportunities to play indoors.
Close to the beach top.

Beautiful park with beautiful houses, only no indoor playground

Beautiful surroundings, close to the beach, sailing, park is well cared for, moderate hospitality, food expensive, highly recommended gourmet

We had a very nice holiday. Nice walk on the beach and swimming in bad weather.

Absolute disappointment
The house was handed over to us very dirty apart from the life-threatening stairs.
The toilet was not cleaned and was dirty.
There was hair on the kitchen counter and on the beds
An absolute NO GO
The beds were not made and when the staff tried to clarify, they said You booked last minute anyway and saved enough so you can be satisfied.

After this outrageous answer, we decided to leave on the day of arrival.

It was very disappointing because I had completely different experiences from friends and acquaintances at Center Parks.

Super nice center parcs. Simply a fantastic location. There are lots of activities for children and teenagers. The houses are functional. A place to relax and unwind. It was our second time there and it will not be the last time.
