The Best Hotels Near Kook Atelier op Oost, by the Record

  1. A restored seaweed shed on Texel's eastern edge now houses some of the rooms at this adults-only boutique hotel, a converted farmhouse a short walk from the Wadden Sea. Twelve rooms split between garden suites, farm suites, and the shed's Wier Lodges, with copper fittings, stone basins, and Texel wool duvets throughout. The restaurant runs a single surprise menu that follows the island's seasons, which is either exciting or anxiety-inducing depending on your relationship with menus.



  2. A converted parsonage on the island of Texel, surrounded by farmland and vegetable gardens, Bij Jef is a small boutique hotel with a genuinely luxurious feel. Open-plan suites are bright and minimalist, with Dutch-made beds and wool bedding sourced nearby. Some look out over the village rooftops, others face the fields. Breakfast arrives in courses, with champagne, and the beach is a short bike ride away.
