On the sea in Makkum
Really liked many aspects of this hotel. I was there in the winter for a visit to one of the many yards that calls Makkum home. Restaurant and service was two highlights and the view from the room was great. Bed and bedding, not so much, the team would need to switch things up for me to sleep well with both feeling dated and bedding not fitting well to the bed.

Great location. Disappointing accommodations.
Great location. Great restaurant. The hotel itself is just outdated and basic. Dirty floors, and walls. Beds are single and not double which isn't the best. Also, it's overpriced for what you get. We paid through this site and we're required to pay extra for breakfast and an extra bed (even though we booked for the extra person). We didn't want breakfast but they said we booked it and had to pay the extra cost for it.

The restaurant has a really good cook and team, excellent cuisine and that in The Netherlands .. Rooms are dated but they build new and should be ready soon. Hopefully they get rid of the cigarette smokers because that’s a health hazard and gross too, yak. Bright future ahead when smart choices are prevalent within.

My colleague and I arrived at 8:15 in the evening, we had both done a long days work and were hungry. We were then told that the restaurant was closed, and that the hotel could not serve us a meal not even a sandwich! When I complained I was told that they were under a COVID lockdown, I knew that perfectly well but that is no excuse for not providing a meal on a tray to be taken off to the bedroom. If I wanted to stay in a motel then I would have booked such but I booked and paid for a Hotel precisely because I wanted food included. Along with all essential workers I am well aware of the rules around Covid but if I were to use lockdown as an excuse not to work then no one would have any power. We were able to order a take away but this was not something that the staff were able to assist with we had to sort this out ourselves.

Human size hotel with warmth and coziness. The person at the reception was, however, not necessarily very helpful and understanding to my needs (early departure, check out and breakfast). Luckily, the staff at the restaurant the next morning were amazing.

All was good in the Hotel, except the internet covered is extremely bad. Since I stayed for a business, the internet was crucial for me. But during the weekend, they couldn't help me with it. So that wasn't very pleasant. All staff members were amazingly helpful, but some of the receptionists.

Spacious rooms but free parking is limited. The location could simply not be better. Rooms are not recently renovated but solid and clean. Staff is friendly and helpful. We as a family would come back any time.

Almost great
Check in was ok although it took ages for someone to come to receptions. Asked to reserve a table for dinner but that wasn’t possible and had to be done thru the reception. The room was pleasant over looking the water - unfortunately the restaurant extraction fans were beside the room so blew out kitchen smells noisily all night. The vanity mirror is set for someone over 6 foot. The bathroom light is on a timer so u end up showering in the dark. They didn’t give us WiFi info at reception and there’s no number in the room to call reception so I used my phone to call for an outside line. The same receptionist spelt out the password .. it didn’t work - I spelt it back to her pheonetically - that didn’t work. She couldn’t bring up the writtenpassword so I went down - turns out she doesn’t know the dif between a and e ... she laughed it amused her. Personally o found it annoying and her lack of help u professional. Dinner was good. Breakfast was ok. There’s no where to plug Hairdryer by a mirror ...

We had a nice stay at the Beach Hotel de Vigilante. We had lovely meals in the restaurant and breakfast was great. The Family Room fit our needs well but I was disappointed to find quite a bit of mould in the shower 😞. I also felt that the room really could have benefited from a small mini fridge.

Good Location, nice Lobby/Bar area - nothing else.
We had a room for two persons, the carpet was dirty & old, there were only big curtains but no light ones (means during day time people could stare into your room). The bed sheets weren't changed within the whole stay. The reception employees couldn't answer questions about things to do in the area (3 different people were asked). The breakfast was VERY simple for a 4 Star Hotel. The worst part was the coffee machine - you had to stand in line for minutes to get one little cup if coffee. The employees during breakfast didn't see if the guests needed them. Each guest had to actively go to them and ask for things needed. Bike renting was nice, they offer high quality bike. Service at the bar in the evening was helpful and friendly. Lobby and Bar area looked nice and modern (not the room).

everything looks fine, breakfast, friendly staff, location, and beachfront location. There are good restaurants around. It is lovely but there are some minor negative feedback like water in shower gets cold and hot repeatedly and it makes it a bit unpleasant to take a shower. Besides, the beds are not so comfortable for us. they were a bit too soft. But, it is just a matter of preferences. I would recommend this hotel for family and leisure visits.
