Paal 8 Hotel aan Zee, hotel in West aan Zee

Surrounded by dunes and just minutes from the island’s widest beach, this welcoming hotel offers the tranquillity and facilities needed for a relaxing holiday or weekend get-away This unique location...

The location is what we hoped! We were able to stroll across the sand dunes to the North Sea Beach for a couple of energizing walks (first thing in the morning and late in the afternoon) with beautiful views. Seeing the sunset from Westaanzee Strand Restaurant was a highlight! Upon our arrival at the hotel, the young lady who assisted us in checking in was tending the bar area. (No one was at the reception area after 9:00 p.m. ) She was very sweet and helpful. She did what she could to address our room concerns. Her kindess did ease our disappointment.

Hotel De Walvisvaarder, hotel in West aan Zee

Hotel De Walvisvaarder lies exactly in the centre of the beautiful Dutch island Terschelling.

The personnel were all exceptionally kind, friendly and helpful. Dinner was excellent, and the extra care to arrange an early breakfast, was also very much appreciated. The hotel is modern, however blends in well with the village surroundings. It is situated on the bus route to and from Westerschelling. The bicycles to rent on site, is also a welcoming feature.

Strandhotel Terschelling B&B, hotel in West aan Zee

Strandhotel Terschelling B&B is located in Formerum, a small village directly along the beach and the sea. Parking is free of charge.

We loved the location, completely surrounded by the dunes, it felt isolated while not actually being completely far from everything. There is actually a nice spot for food and drinks right on the beach nearby. We also loved the vibe and atmosphere of the main living area where the breakfast is also served, and the view from the room! Absolutely loved it all

    We visited the areas on the island where grandparents were born, lived and died. We enjoyed Midsland so much and West Terschelling as well. We didn't have time to visit other areas as were only there for two short days! It was a two day visit in our 12 day travel. Our two days on Terschelling were the highlight of our trip. (We really enjoyed the ferry each way as well! We got to see the sunset on our trip to the island and the sunrise on our return trip to the mainland. We would highly recommend a visit to all of the island. We hope to return!

    West aan Zee is a great place to spend some quality time.

    West aan Zee is a great place to spend some quality time. Especially before and after the summer season. In-season it tends to become a bit crowded. Terschelling is one of the most beautiful Dutch islands and West aan Zee is just one of the great beaches that can be found there. Must sees are the "Koffiemolen", an old windmill where you can drink great coffees and eat nice "cranberry" pastries and of course the beautiful lighthouse "Brandaris" in the West Terschelling village. Don't forget to drink a great cocktail at Flaman, the cafe-restaurant at ons the Brandaris square.

    West aan Zee is basically a lot of (holiday) houses near the sea. No shops. There is one food pavillion at the beach (good quality) and the hotel Paal8 (excellent). The beach is very wide and beautiful.

    This was a dream stay. The room was so spacious and since I had taken the love package, we received Bubbles & the bed was decorated. Although we both would have liked the bed to be decorated with real flowers instead of artificial but I also understand the decision behind it. We loved the balcony and the beach view it had provided. Wish we could have stayed longer. We also appreciated the options for renting bike directly from the Hotel.

    We got a nice family room with two floors including 2 balconies (one with sea view). The living room was very large so also with poor weather you can enjoy the stay at this hotel. The dunes and the beach are just in front of the hotel Very friendly staff Very quiet at night Public parking 100m away Very good breakfast (only missing the "on demand" prepared eggs e.g. omelette, fried eggs)

    An ideal location for those who seek peace, quiet and enjoy communing with nature. The hotel is located in the middle of the dunes right at the entrance to the beach. Parking 100 m from the hotel. Dog-friendly place. The dog was welcomed with bowls and mattress. It was so kind surprise. Thank you

    We had everything we were looking for here. Location is great, you are right on the beach at Hotel Paal 8. You can rent bikes at the hotel for a scenic bike ride to West Terschelling or Midsland. Food and service (despite strict covid restrictions at the time we stayed) were great.
