Study week on Texel  

‘Vakantiepark de Krim provided exactly the kind of secluded setting we needed for our 10-day PhD school, ISAPP 2017. The luxury family villas were the perfect form of accommodation for our 48 students, as the large living areas and kitchens provided the perfect space to come together and network or study during their free time. Our teachers were each accommodated in their own hotel chalet, which were located in a quiet, secluded area of the holiday park, providing a peaceful setting to retire to after a busy day of lectures. All the accommodation was clean, functional and well equipped. Our ten day programme consisted of both lectures and social activities. The lecture room was more than adequate and De Krim was able to hire in the audio-visual set-up we required. The welcome reception, barbecue and formal dinner that formed our social programme were really well organized and De Krim also gave us complimentary access to their bowling alley one evening, which our students really enjoyed. From an organizational point of view, the events team at De Krim were a pleasure to work with. They were approachable, proactive and easy to communicate with. I would have no hesitation in recommending de Krim to my colleagues for future events.’ 

‘The 150 first-year Global Sustainability Science students of Utrecht University were very happy with the level of luxury and quality of the holiday homes at De Krim. They also really liked the location of the park, right by the beach, great for having a beer on the beach on Saturday evening. The park also provided excellent facilities for giving an introductory lecture and for meeting students in meeting rooms.’ 

‘Every year, De Krim hosts 160 of our students. The sea, dunes, the space, the theatre, the inspiring location, the friendly staff and the Skuumkoppe make our stay, our 10th year already, at Jan, Fleur and colleagues’ very enjoyable.’ 

‘Every year, we go to Holiday Park De Krim with over 60 students for a week of various activities. The warm reception and very pleasant communication – the staff always think along with us to make our stay as enjoyable as possible – make the study trip a big success. The price quality ratio is excellent and all this on such a wonderful island.’
