Sleeping in Egmond aan Zee: hotels on the boulevard, campsites behind
Egmond aan Zee is the largest seaside village on this stretch of coast and so has the widest choice: hotels with a sea view on the boulevard, campsites and holiday parks in the dunes behind it, and flats in the village itself.
Egmond aan Zee is a proper seaside resort, and you notice that in what is on offer. Here you will find hotel rooms where you look out over the sea from your bed, and along this coast that is rare.
Is a sea view worth it?
In summer, usually yes. In the storm season it is spectacular and you hear the surf through the windows, which not everybody finds restful to sleep through. When you book, ask which floor the room is on and which side of the building.
And if I want it cheaper?
Behind the village, in the dunes, lie the campsites and holiday parks. You are then five to fifteen minutes’ walk from the sea and you pay considerably less. For a family that spends the day on the beach anyway, that is often the better trade.
How is this order decided?
The order below is not for sale. We sort on the Google rating, then on the number of reviews, then on the distance to the beach access. Whoever is at the top is there because guests put them there.
