Tower Apartment in Huisduinen by the Sea

A Unique Stay Above the Sea

This one-of-a-kind holiday home, set within a former coastguard tower in Huisduinen, offers an unforgettable stay with panoramic views of land, sea, and even the island of Texel. Spread across the top three floors, the apartment has been stylishly renovated while preserving the tower’s original charm. From the top-floor living area and balcony, you can enjoy spectacular sunsets or spot seals through the binoculars. With a cozy kitchen, bright living space, and inviting bedroom, this elevated retreat is ideal for couples seeking serenity with a view.

Coastal Sights & Cultural Gems

Located just 50 meters from the sea, this property places you right at the heart of the Dutch coast. A short walk away is the impressive Fort Kijkduin, home to a museum and North Sea aquarium. You can also visit the historic Vuurtoren Kijkduin lighthouse or hop on a ferry to Texel for a day of island adventure. Explore the nearby Duinoord forest for a refreshing hike or stroll through the beautiful Hortus Overzee botanical garden in Den Helder. Whether you're seeking nature, history, or peaceful beach walks, this location has it all.

Local Flavours & Coastal Dining

Though the tower's kitchen is fully equipped for homemade meals, the area offers a variety of local dining options. Enjoy seafood and sunset views at Beachclub Citadel, or dine at Fort Westoever, a unique restaurant and brewery located inside a former fort. Nearby Den Helder features cozy bistros, bakeries, and Dutch eateries. For a casual bite after beachcombing, the beach pavilions near Marsdiep are perfect for a warm drink or local treat with your toes in the sand.
