Our TOP TIP for BEST VALUE

Consider the end of June or beginning of July for your European Family Vacation.

At Center Parcs this is still considered LOW SEASON!

Canadian kids are out of school, while European kids are still hard at work!

Savings over high season rates can be significant.
 

 

   

Parcs in Holland
De Eemhof | Het Heijderbos

Center Parcs 
De Eemhof
combines terrific on- site features with a superb location. 

It is within easy reach of Amsterdam (less than an hour by car to the city center), has its own marina for water sports, as well as a totally rebuilt Mediterranean style Market Square and many other stand-out features.

Nearby cities and attractions are:

Things to see and
do for families
Amsterdam 35 miles Visit Anne Frank's House, climb the Westerkerk church tower for spectacular views of the city, ride canal bikes, visit the Rijksmuseum, Van Gogh museum, see windmills, rent bicycles, take the Circle Tram ride, visit a diamond "factory" - and much more...
Amsterdam can offer many days of sightseeing on its own...
Zuiderzee Museum (Enkhuizen) 45 miles Open air museum life showing life in a Dutch fishing village at the end of the nineteenth century.
The Hague 60 miles Madurodam miniature city with tiny reproductions of scenery and buildings from all over Holland.
Burger's Zoo 48 miles Thousands of animals from all over the world.
Six Flags Holland 20 miles Roller-coaster heaven! Thrill rides and family fun.

Outstanding features at De Eemhof include:

The only outdoor "Market Dome", this Mediterranean styled plaza offers many dining and shopping choices, in a charming environment. It is cunningly designed so that you don't need to actually go outside, if it happens to be raining... which can happen!
This resort has among the highest quality cottages of any Center Parc. As well as DeLuxe and VIP villas, they also offer "Style" villas, which have additional luxurious touches and chic decor.
The Subtropical Swimming Paradise has fantastically authentic Balinese styling. It was designed and built by a team of 10 artisans brought in specially from Bali. Out of this world!
Also at the Subtropical Swimming Paradise is a unique surf simulator called the Flow Rider. You remain essentially static as the water rushes past you. Your task is to try to stay on your surfboard! A lot of fun!
Right on site, De Eemhof has a marina, offering sailing and windsurfing on the IJsselmeer (inland sea). As you walk to the marina you walk over a dyke and realise that the whole resort is actually below sea level. Cool!
There is also a huge activity hall, featuring games, sports, cinema, restaurant etc, all themed like a Cuban street scene, right down to painted cobblestones on the floor! This venue also hosts live entertainment some evenings.

These are over and above the "standard features" shared by all Center Parcs resorts (as described on our "About Center Parcs" pages)

Can you tell that we like this resort?! It is so convenient to Amsterdam - a city that is high on many people's "must visit" list - and with such a lot to offer on site too.
