We went to Efteling this August to fully enjoy it on summer. Since Daxton had so much fun that time, we decided to go back. This time we opted to stay in Efteling Bosrijk overnight to have an unrushed experience and to try the rides we missed last time (the Sprookjesbos!).
We have been fascinated with Efteling. It has that fairytale vibe without the excessive grandeur that Disneyland offers. It was spooky and magical at the same time. Efteling has three accommodation options namely, Efteling Hotel, Bosrijk and Loonsche Land. We browsed for great deals and found one at Efteling Bosrijk. We got an overnight stay for less that $300 which included parking and entrance to Efteling for almost two days.
Efteling Bosrijk is a 10 mins walk in the woods/forest going to Efteling. It is a vacation home park with a cabin in the woods vibe. It was the perfect weather during Spetember, ample amount of sunshine and cool weather. In Europe, it is more common to go to a vacation home during the holidays.
OUR ROOM
Our room is located in the apartment complex way back of the vacation home park, about 5 minutes walk. We didn’t mind it as we get to explore the area.
It is a 2 bedroom small apartment for four people. It is perfect for small families. The room was nice and up to date. There are extra things inside that made the stay a bit homey. Our room has the view of the playground, and the room came with Efteling TV channel. They were more than enough to entertain Daxton while in the area.
FOOD
Our stay included breakfast which was a good deal. Our expectations were low during breakfast. Breakfast here are mainly continental, which comprised of bread and spreads with coffee for breakfast. Due to COVID-19, there wasn’t a breakfast buffet, each table was decked with an etage of breads and spreads, and a coffee machine at the corner.
The surprising thing is that we were able to request for bacon, fruits and eggs! Milk and Fresh juice are also available upon request. It was one fullfiling breakfast which got us through late lunch. We ate our lunches and dinner inside the theme park .
