Centerparcs Review

Old glory in desperate need of a makeover. The lodging is very dated and has that distinct 1990's smell to it. Furniture is not comfortable and we got the "New Generation" family lodging which was supposed to have toys, but only came with an over sized lego set. The other toys were either broken, or so old they were overused from the previous visitors they weren't even usable.

Events and services are not customer first. You can book lunch at the Grand Cafe at 11, but the kitchen doesn't open until 12. Try that with two kids 3 years and younger. Had to go to the over priced super market buy bread and cheese and eat sandwiches in our lodge.

The app is borderline useless. It's nice that it gives you all activities for the day, but most of them show fully booked or you can't book a time. You have to call reception to book a time. And when you get there you see it's not even that busy.

The shining glimmer in this place was the swimming pool which the kids enjoyed. The staff itself were friendly, feel a bit bad for them as all of the many issues seem to be out of their hands.

If you want to step back into the past a bit, book your stay here, turn off your cell phone and tablets for the week, and experience life as it was in 1995.

Today I had a day at Aqua Mundo with my girlfriend, and in the afternoon at 3:02 pm 2 fries ordered one burger with drinks and at 4:10 pm we finally got our food. Scandalous service! Waited more than an hour for your food! A waste of our time and money.

I thought it was great because Marillion played there on three evenings! The park itself is already getting a bit old, here should be improved in many places something! (Swimming pool, bungalows) For families with children, but certainly a good alternative! The beach is big and clean!

Partly renovated, swimming pool not as big as usual, but around water

The grill restaurant is terribly bad about a corn allergy is not seriously responded to if you say it is laughed by a striking associal woman and it will be okay. You also have to do 2x with cutlery first eat your fish starter, then your meat. You are not allowed to say anything about that either. She asks if you want to speak to the manager but we just didn't want a nice evening anymore.

Relaxing moment. Many activities available. For lovers of nature, opportunity to discover the park and its surroundings by walking. Friendly staff and available.

Nice park, great program. Staff very friendly and helpful. North Sea in about 5 minutes to reach.

Time for some modernization as (what has already been started)

The location is nice, near the beach. The renovated cottages are also nicely and conveniently furnished. You can do many activities, you have a shopping mall. Stores on the expensive side, but that doesn't matter much. The pool is beautiful, large and has many parts. There are sometimes stone edges that you just plan against (am a bit awkward: P). I enjoyed it!

Park is very nice. Staff and staff very courteous. Gladly again

One week Center Park in Porte Zelande, the first impression is ok so far. Not far from the port of Grevelinger Meer, checking in is no problem.
We drive to the house, unload and park the car in the parking lot not far from the house. From the outside they all look the same, only in terms of color they are differentiated, Comfort, Premium and VIP, 2,4,6,8,10 people. We unlock the door, ok a bit small but it is enough for 2 people, the inventory is pretty new because the next houses are being renovated and the furniture is new. Then the stairs up, which is a real challenge, a spiral staircase that you can only climb step by step, older people than us have difficulties here. The bathroom and the bedroom are on the upper floor, everything is new and small but ok, you don't spend the whole day here anyway. In the bathroom it is still made of silicone, you just have to close the door. At the stairs there is a grille that you prefer to close in the evening before you fall down there. / is probably more for children because there was also a cot downstairs.
Because of the renovation it is quite noisy. Our conclusion that is only for families with children, relaxation is not optimal here.
What I found really bad, however, is that you already have a table, chairs and loungers in front of the house, but there are no cushions and parasols, so you are forced to go into the house at noon.

Great everything was super clean, tidy. Wildwaterbaan is also very popular with young and old.

A fantastic place to be, restaurants and supermarket very expensive

Nice, but very small. A nice swimming pool with small children. More beautiful swimming pools seen from Centerparcs in terms of slides and whitewater rinks

A bit old but a paradise for children from 3-14 years. In the U-circle you can hardly see sights and lots of good activities in the park cost extra. One week should be enough. Goods in November. But man has his peace and in the summer it is certainly beautiful there. Not recommended for teenagers. The food and the bathroom are really great.

Had a VIP cottage with our family. Cozy cottage, nice way to eat at the kitchen island. Excellent beds, only the cottages are a bit noisy. And it should all be just a little cleaner ... Staff is not too friendly either.

We stayed here for 4 nights in early February. A VIP house was booked for 2 people, baby and dog. We were upgraded to a 4 person VIP house due to renovations.
The stay turned out to be a bit difficult. We had a 3 story house with extremely steep spiral stairs. Since we only used 2 floors, it was okay with our baby, but we were a bit afraid of the stairs if we carried the child. The dog was terrified of the stairs. He is used to accompanying us and sleeping in the hallway in front of the bedroom. Now we had the problem of having a scared dog alone on the ground floor at night. That didn't make it easy.

A baby bed was available in the house, but was of no use, as it could have been set up on the third floor, but not in the parents' bedroom. So our son had to sleep in our bed. There is also no possibility of changing a baby in the house. We knew what to do, but you should know that.

So the 4 person VIP house for older visitors, visitors with small children and for visitors whose dogs otherwise like to stay with the family is out. Information that we would have liked. The location of the house was, without a doubt, extremely beautiful. The view over the harbor and the direct proximity to the water made a lot of things good.
Now a little before or. Cons in summary ...

Benefits:
- Wonderful location of the whole park with a uniquely beautiful beach in the immediate vicinity
- Cleanliness in the park
- great kitchen and good equipment just this
- super small wellness area
- nice terrace with own grill
- Loves animals
- The park is definitely great for children
- Great roof terraces, especially in port locations

Disadvantage:
- During the week most of the advertised restaurants were closed and the bathing area had completely different opening times than mentioned online
- extremely tiny toilet rooms in the house. My husband with almost 2 meters had hardly any freedom of movement
- again the stairs in the house, because you have to know beforehand
- It wasn't baby-friendly there in the cottage
- ancient carpets in the sleeping area. As a house dust allergy sufferer, it wasn't great. VIP is an exaggerated term
- The floor plan did not even begin to correspond to the one displayed under the category
- Some of the windows have had their best days
- Heating gave the impression that the top floor would not be reached. On the middle floor, the heating was only active in the bathroom. The bedroom was always freezing.

Conclusion:
We will come back because of the park location and then choose a house based on the numbers. We now have an overview of the park and know about the weak points and strengths.

Just returned from a week at CenterParcs Port Zelande. Look back on a week with mixed feelings.
Parking: is a drama because too many people are admitted. In addition to visitors who rent a house, many tourists come to the swimming pool every day.
Swimming pool: entrance is too narrow and crowded for the amount of people. The changing rooms were very dirty and the hallway to the swimming pool was not getting any better. Very busy in the pool! Of the days we have been, the whitewater course was closed, and / or the outdoor pool closed, and / or the turbo tunnel closed. And then swimming with many people is a challenge. Our entrance tickets were no longer valid for the whole week that we had booked, we were forced to go to the reception for new tickets, even an excuse for the inconvenience was too much to ask.
Adventure Factory: too busy here and ordering took 1/2 hour. There were only 2 employees around to take care of everything (management?). Second day after waiting in vain for 20 minutes but left.
Market: 1st day quite an adventure to get fresh bread, the rest of the week found another solution.
Cottage: it must be said was clean, but that sofa is really no longer. And for the first time experienced a dishwasher that did not wash clean.
All in all, we made it a nice week with the things that were open and / or accessible. Nice trips made in the area
But my conclusion is that from now on we will skip this park and a park such as a cream pot or Landal can still offer more for its customers. Heard more people complaining about the crowds, partly because of the days people, and many people ignore this park next time .....

House with number 462 is completely without garden. Really bad!

VIP house. Was so far okay. Only the heater control (room controller) was more a placebo than a functional one. Window in the bedroom way too small. You can hardly care for fresh air.

Slides were disappointing in the pool. Wildwaterbaan was again better than expected.

We have been 1 day and have swam there and waved medium wave it was a nice day

Through the review I have previously called Center Parcs, both on the hotline and at the plant in Holland. Since we have an allergic child, the cleanliness and hygiene is very important to us. Therefore, I insisted on the phone that our house is clean! I could have saved myself. If you have paid extra attention to us, I do not want to know what the others look like. Unfortunately, I have to say that we are extremely disappointed. The floor sticks, the handles and furniture stick, the fridge is totally filthy, etc. In almost every corner cobwebs including residents. The house smokes especially in the upper floors and the carpets are so overcast that at first I thought that would be an extra pattern. Not worth half the price. Check out the first basic cleaning using hygiene products Let's see how the rest of the stay will be. Really a great pity, the whole area looks right neglected. The location and layout is really wonderful. A shame what Center Parc degenerates here.

It is a beautiful parks center near the North Sea and surrounded by water. The price is much more interesting than in France! It can be used to visit Rotterdam, The Hague or Amsterdam (beware of traffic jams)! The accommodations are spacious. The pool has many facilities. The wild river is excellent. We could not test outdoor activities, in February it is not very hot.

For the fact that you really paid a lot, the apartments and the facilities are too old and not clean. Plant otherwise beautiful

Nice, a bit on the expensive side, but definitely worth it. The cottages are a bit on the annoying side but modern and baby proof furnished. I had a very nice weekend.

Cottage 6 people comfortable .. !! Recent renovation.
Aqua mundo dome nice .. !!
Wild river fun but victim of its success a lot of people ..
Simple burger ect..on place a bit high ..
Stay nevertheless pleasant ...
Nice staff too ..

Friendly staff. ... the apartment was not clean, could really be better and no free Wi-Fi is important to me today?

Bit dated aqua mundo, very friendly staff and updated cottages

Located in a quiet area and the terrain looks neat and tidy.

Absolutely dirty pool. Toilets so small and smart. You always had to be careful that you did not touch anything. In the shower cubicles, which were really tight, it was also dirty. The shower jet was mini and lasted a maximum of 30 seconds. Changing rooms were sandy on the floor. Floor in the pool dirty with hair and .... bah. Yes, there was a lot going on. But then I have to have more staff, which also clean and does not talk. In general, the park is getting old and cleanliness is not Prio 1. The prices are cheeky. Good that I had no diving goggles ... I do not want to know what was going on in the water. It was really disgusting.

Nice park, very nice area, friendly staff! Only very few eateries on site, the pizzeria was closed both Wednesdays and Thursdays, and downstairs could only be eaten until 1900.

Great place for Holiday with family, friends and Kids... ank You CenterParcs for 7th Marillion Weekend this year. I am looking forward for 2021

Nice park with renovated houses on the inside (the outside still looks somewhat outdated). Many opportunities for walking and cycling. Spacious water park where even the little ones can get used to water (our 3 month old son followed his first habituation).

Nice park close to the coast, nice location, only the houses need some improvement, there was a heavy storm and water came in through various windows and doors.

Stay tuned, but I have a question about all the time at work from the last time I dogged a lot of dogs I saw it right if I was a little bit up to date with new articles during this period

Very clean and well-kept park. Clean swimming pool with lots of entertainment.

I like the centerparc very well in principle, but the night's sleep is already at 22 o'clock and is very much controlled and those who control are not very nice. Generally it is very nice but the prices in the store for example are very expensive, you could almost say that they are kiosk prices.

The place is nice in general but it was disappointing the comparison between the pictures of the cottage on the website VS what you get.

Very nice Parc and aqua mundo. Varied offer of activities. The exterior is a bit lean right now.

Very nice park, between the North Sea and the Grewelinger Sea. class

We are very pleased with the facility the staff is friendly and the grounds are very clean. The house is relatively clean but is perfect for a family with children. We would go again at any time

very nice and friendly staff, clean cottages and not far from the sandy beach

Very nice area around and in center parcs. A must for fun cycling

Location: all the time the place remains alive and charming.

Staff: discreet;

The aquatic part: aging;

Cleanliness of the cottage: dusty;

Layout of the cottage: cozy and well laid out;

Service: VIP Cottage Breakfast is simplistic (3 rolls);

Room: under the roof, quite difficult for adults;

Parking: near and well organized.

Beautiful! I'll definitely go there again, there is a dream beach nearby. Despite the park, there is a great feeling. So if Center Parks, then Port Zelande! So far the most beautiful center park. From there you could make beautiful tours along the sea.

Nice cozy park, nice swimming pool, friendly staff and close to the beach

Cozy park, neat too. Great solutions for Corona measures. Spacious and beautiful surroundings outside the park.
It was my first time at CenterParcs. What I missed was service such as clean towels and that the beds are made and collected.

Very nice. Concert on Sunday afternoons. Right at the water's edge. Good food

Unfortunately, I have to join in when it comes to the basic cleaning and cleanliness of the houses. So many stamens and cobwebs over the beds, does not look like cleaning. The sink does not expire, how many weeks does it take for those disgusting relics? Beautiful bathroom unfortunately moldy joints, which can not happen in the house, because no window closes properly and thus a constant ventilation prevails. However, in the rain, then water runs - in this Fall directly under the baby bed. Dishwasher clearing from the predecessor, I find not problematic, so I know that it is clean. The chair backrests and stair handrails, are hopefully so sticky of detergent !? For me, the first and last time in this park. But the offer of holiday accommodation is too big. Did not read the reviews before.

Beautiful cottage, nice family buffet, nice swimming pool. Bowling and laser gaming are also fun. I think the prices that are signed are very high. I would expect that there is more included in the booking price given the high booking price. Very unfortunate that everything has to be paid separately.

A disappointing year we have been coming here for years because the water there was always wonderfully warm, but this year the water was less warm, so we did not book back.

The park itself is very nice. Same at the harbor and only 10min. From the beach by the sea.
The apartments are very nice, only the front gardens are very verwahrlost.Das hus itself is clean and everything you need to survive.
Unfortunately, the restaurants are open only on a few days, which I was very surprised. Since the snack bar, no other restaurant has a terrace, which is to enter from outside, you can not take the dog, which is a pity.
Unfortunately, there are only small outdoor playgrounds for children. We would have liked a large playground for the children, with meadow to sit there.
Park = ****
Restaurants = ** (due to opening hours)
Swimming pool in =

Cottages are fine and clean. Bowling alley outdated, short run-up and the ball rolls in all directions due to the sticker stripes on the course. also costs 25 per hour. Certainly not worth it. Service moderate. Swimming pool moderate for young people, fun for children. Snack bar in the pool slow and do not inform about extra costs with extras. Great entertainment at the start of the park.

Beautiful location, lots of possible activities in the central building and a beautiful view of the sea

The last time we did not have a good place but the previous time we therefore therefore 3 stars.

Houses completely ok !!!!
The Italian restaurant I found alse passionate Italians alright but not great !!
The terrain is very well maintained !!
I as an Italian say to Center Parc Port Zelande really good !!

Nice park only the green is rather neglected. Unfortunately.

Read several questionable reviews beforehand but to be honest everything was fine.

Nice against especially the harbor great deals but unfortunately no dog in the main building.
