About Beekse Bergen

A perfect combination of woodland, water, safari park and fun park!!

Beekse Bergen is a perfect holiday destination for families with young children. It is a really unique resort, split into 3 parts: the Lake Resort, Safari Resort and Safari Hotel.

Beekse Bergen is located in beautiful woodland in the North Brabant region of the Netherlands. Its setting in unspoilt nature with a large swimming lake, sandy lake beaches, indoor pools and the fantastic and extensive toddler friendly “Speelland” play paradise is only part of what makes Beekse Bergen so unique. It is also home to the biggest Safari Park in the Netherlands. During your stay you can choose to take driving or walking routes around the safari park or take the boat to see all the animals in their natural surroundings. Here you can really have it all; nature, beaches, safari park and a huge play zone.

LAKE RESORT BEEKSE BERGEN BEACH

The Lake Resort provides the perfect outdoor holiday experience where you can enjoy the forest, swim in the lake or explore Bojo beach. Here, you will discover a children’s play beach where you can take your seat at one of the tables, or put your feet up and relax on a sunbed whilst sipping a delicious cocktail, letting your children enjoy the natural surroundings and play area. Indoors, you can discover the Lake Resort’s Etsi pool with its 3 separate areas for swimming, playing or relaxing and take in the views which stretch as far as the eye can see over beautiful Lake Victoria. There is a well-stocked supermarket, indoor play and restaurant, and a children’s activity and entertainment programme.

Picture the sun setting to the sound of lions roaring or the sight of giraffes as they majestically walk over the sandy savannahs, with zebras huddled together as they feed. This is just a regular day at the Safari Resort. Staying in a Savannah Lodge or a Savannah Room in the Safari Hotel means you can relax on your own terrace overlooking uninterrupted views of giraffes, zebras, rhinos and other safari animals all day long. We know from experience, that this is something that you never tire of and it provides hours of entertainment for little ones.

Beekse Bergen Safari Resort

The Safari Resort has its own indoor pool, a small shop, bowling, indoor play and children’s activities with the park Ranger. The restaurant and adjacent adventure play area have direct views over the animals on the Serengeti savannah.

It’s easy to travel between the different resorts, the Safari Park and Speelland, using the free Ostrich Express shuttle train. This is a hassle-free and fun way to get around and you can easily pop your buggy into the rear carriage if needed for the duration of your journey.

If all the excitement of Beekse Bergen isn’t enough, or you wish to venture out into the local area, you’ll be excited to know that booking a holiday at Beekse Bergen not only includes unlimited access to the Safari Park and Speelland, but also to several other local attractions. These include some toddler friendy zoos.

With so much to offer it is no surprise that Beekse Bergen is extremely popular!

Accommodation

At the Lake Resort, the different accommodation types reflect their location within the resort, be it within the forest or along the lake.

The Lake Resort offers a selection of 3 bedroom 1 bathroom Forest Jungalows. You can also book a Kids Forest Jungalow which has the added benefits of having an enclosed garden area, a play pen and high chair and free use of a wooden cart to pull your little ones around in all day!

Forest Jungalows have ample seating areas and floor space to play inside and as they are detached units they have plenty of outdoor space around them to play too.

You can also stay in a Lake View or Forest Cabin, located in a peaceful area close to the lake and an easy walk to the main facilities, or in a Woodland Cabin for 4, 5 or 6 persons.

If you fancy bringing your own tent or caravan you can also book one of the camping pitches on the Lake Resort.

Eurocamp offers a selection of 2 and 3 bedroom Holiday Homes (sleeping up to 8) which are located in their own area on the Lake Resort. The Eurocamp Holiday Homes have their own wooden veranda and the rooms are all on one level, making it super safe for little ones.
