Tower Apartment in Huisduinen by the Sea
A Unique Stay Above the Sea This one-of-a-kind holiday home, set within a former coastguard tower in Huisduinen, offers an unforgettable stay with panoramic views of land, sea, and even the island of Texel. Spread across the top three floors, the apartment has been stylishly renovated while preserving the tower’s original charm. From the top-floor living area and balcony, you can enjoy spectacular sunsets or spot seals through the binoculars. With a cozy kitchen, bright living space, and inviting bedroom, this elevated retreat is ideal for couples seeking serenity with a view.
Coastal Sights & Cultural Gems Located just 50 meters from the sea, this property places you right at the heart of the Dutch coast. A short walk away is the impressive Fort Kijkduin, home to a museum and North Sea aquarium. You can also visit the historic Vuurtoren Kijkduin lighthouse or hop on a ferry to Texel for a day of island adventure. Explore the nearby Duinoord forest for a refreshing hike or stroll through the beautiful Hortus Overzee botanical garden in Den Helder. Whether you're seeking nature, history, or peaceful beach walks, this location has it all.
Local Flavours & Coastal Dining Though the tower's kitchen is fully equipped for homemade meals, the area offers a variety of local dining options. Enjoy seafood and sunset views at Beachclub Citadel, or dine at Fort Westoever, a unique restaurant and brewery located inside a former fort. Nearby Den Helder features cozy bistros, bakeries, and Dutch eateries. For a casual bite after beachcombing, the beach pavilions near Marsdiep are perfect for a warm drink or local treat with your toes in the sand.

Fantastic Lookout
We didn’t want to leave our perch on top of this old coast guard tower. The views were outstanding. We sometimes just spent time watching the sea birds endlessly fly by. The place is just excellent for relaxing and decompressing. Wonderful!

Urlaub mit traumhafter Aussicht
Eine Auszeit in diesem Wachturm ist etwas ganz Besonderes! Diese Unterkunft ist mit viel Liebe und Ideenreichtum restauriert bzw. umgebaut worden! Die Küche und das Schlafzimmer mit Bad en Suite sind schon ein Hingucker. Von der Toilette aus hat man eine tolle Aussicht,soetwas haben wir noch nie erlebt! Allerdings ist die Toilette/Bad mit keiner Tür vom Schlafzimmer abgetrennt. Nachdem man dann die Stufen zur letzten Etage geschafft hat, kwird man zuerst überrascht und dann überwältigt von einem spektakulären rundum Ausblick. Wir haben uns die meiste Zeit dort oben aufgehalten mit Blick aufs Meer. Hier kann man sowohl den Sonnenaufgang, sowie den Sonnenuntergang über dem Meer beobachten….ganz in der Nähe des Leuchtturms…..

Kein schöner Aufenthalt
Gut waren:- der tolle Ausblick- die Erreichbarkeit und Kommunikation inkl. unkompliziertem Check-In.Nicht gut waren:- die kalten, zugigen und nicht heizbaren Räume - klamme, feuchte Betten- Einrichtung mit deutlichen Gebrauchsspuren Nach langer Überlegung haben wir unseren Aufenthalt früher beendet. Ein gemütliches Sitzen im Wohnzimmer war leider nur mit Jacke, Mütze und Schal auf einer durchgesessenen Couch möglich. Insgesamt fanden wir den Preis für die Unterkunft definitiv zu hoch.Bei höheren Außentemperaturen sieht das Ganze vermutlich noch mal anders aus.

Séjour dans un phare
Excellent séjour dans un phare.
Un panorama exceptionnel.
Bon aménagement.
Selon le descriptif du matériel que nous avions reçu, il manque le lecteur de dvd et il n'y avait pas de congélateur (un simple freezer incorporé au réfrigérateur).

Das besondere Erlebnis
Sehr nette Vermieter und eine Perle auf dem Ferienhausmarkt. Ein ganz besonderes Erlebnis mit Sicht auf eine Sandbank mit Robben. Von den wunderschönen Sonnenuntergängen verzaubert durften wir eine schöne Woche im Küstenwachturm erleben.

Weihnachten im Turm
Wir waren 1 Woche im Turm und jeden Tag aufs Neue überwältigt von der tollen Rundumsicht. Das Wohnzimmer ist sehr gemütlich nordisch eingerichtet, die Heizung hat prima funktioniert. Handtücher, Küchentücher, Spül- und Putzmittel waren genügend vorhanden, sogar eine Grundausstattung Kaffeepads. Gewöhnungsbedürftig ist der offene Durchgang vom Schlafzimmer zum Bad/WC. Die große Küche ist etwas spartanisch bestückt, ein paar Schüsseln und ein Nudelsieb wären hilfreich gewesen. Aber das sind nur Kleinigkeiten, wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt und können einen Urlaub hier nur empfehlen!

Locatie, uitzicht, inrichting magnefiek
We hebben een superweekend gehad. Relaxte inrichting, goed bed. Mooi weer, genoten van omgeving met de aanwezige fietsen. Van het uitzicht uit de toren krijg je nooit genoeg. Ook zijn we beide avonden getrakteerd op een prachtige zonsondergang
