Best room for four
Hansel and Gretel Suite. Two double beds and a pull-out single in a gingerbread-themed room, so a family of four or five shares one space without a cot squeeze.
Good for
Families with children 3–10 who will love sleeping inside a fairytale.
Think twice if
No pool on site, so swimming means going to Bosrijk; the Droomvlucht Suite launched in 2024 at about €645 a night for four with breakfast and two days of tickets, so check current rates.
