Nowhere can you sleep as close to the sea as when you sleep in De Kustwachttoren. This unique holiday apartment is situated in the lovely coastal town Huisduinen. This former coastguard tower has been transformed into a stunning apartment with a spectacular view across land and sea. The apartment is situated on the third, fourth and fifth floor of the former coastguard tower. De Kustwachttoren has been renovated while maintaining its original character, providing you with a special view from anywhere in the apartment. The fifth floor is the place, once you’ve arrived, you will never want to leave again. From the sofa on this floor, you can take your binoculars and search for seals every day. If you look a little more to the right, you can see the island of Texel in all its glory. Through the patio doors, you access the balustrade, which was built to encircle the tower.
