The property is lovely, conveniently located and secure, with a pool and a garden. Imke and Michael are the most wonderful and most genial hosts imaginable :-) Imke makes fantastic breakfasts, Michael's airport shuttle service is invaluable. In fact, I stayed at Die Regte Rede twice (18th - 19th & 28th - 29th November) and would not hesitate to do so again. I am hoping to stay there again next year, but for longer, and also take advantage of some of the local tours Michael operates.

I liked everything, it was just perfect. In fact I ended up extending my stay and I would have stayed longer but there was no availability. The place is quiet and located in a nice and safe neighborhood. The room is pristine clean and nicely decorated, The bed was comfortable, equipped with electric blankets to keep you warm. There is a little fridge a kettle and tea and coffee that are constantly replaced if you need them. the tv has Netflix and the wifi is super fast. They would leave delicious muffins and fresh fruit almost everyday in my room. Such a kind gesture. They even kept my luggage in a safe place for many hours until I was ready to collect it. I will never forget the hospitality, reliability and kindness of the owners and all the staff of the Strandloper room!

From the moment I arrived, I was blown away by the exceptional surroundings – a true slice of paradise.
