We had lagoon view rooms for 2 nights in Christmas week. Big gorgeous rooms with lovely views. We should have arrived earlier to enjoy sunset from the beautiful balcony.

Ever since my first stay here 3 years ago I have returned on a monthly basis. I travel alone and really miss home when I stay in impersonal hotels, but at Overmeer I am always... More

It was raining so hard one evening that we decided to buy a take away dinner... More
