Introducing.. Robin

TexelVakantiesOctober 2021

Dear Texel Holiday Friends,

I've been asked to introduce myself on the website and in the newsletter, so here goes!

Back in a beach house on the Texel shore during a heavy storm in 1992, my parents had a great time. Haha. I believe this played a big role in my love for Texel. Growing up on the beach, building huts in the woods, and going on treasure hunts through the dunes was my childhood. But like almost all Texel youth, you eventually have to leave the island to study.

Back to basics, before I forget to introduce myself...
"Van wie ben je d'r ien?" (“Who are your folks?”) as they say here on Texel.
My name is Robin Waerts, born on 30-10-1992, and I've been living on Texel again for a few years now with my girlfriend. Originally, I’m a “Kooger” but now I’m a resident of Den Burg. I grew up in an entrepreneurial family; my father owns a gym in Den Burg and my mother is a police officer. I've always been taught to work hard and seize every opportunity.

Now, about my hobbies: photography started as a hobby but got a bit out of hand. It allows me to earn some extra income alongside my main job. This hobby brings me to the coolest people and the most beautiful places. I also have a great passion for cooking and baking, so if you drop by and smell something delicious, feel free to ask about it. Lastly, I enjoy kitesurfing, where I can go all out on the water and clear my mind. Hopefully, I'll have and take more time for this now.

After more than 10 years in the hospitality industry, I felt it was time for a change. I was working as a photographer for TexelVakanties and was complaining a bit... Well, that got noticed. “Hey Robin, why don’t you come work for us? We’re looking for someone to strengthen our team.” That really made me think (working until 18:00 seemed like a great idea!). Dealing with different guests, helping solve problems, and taking new photos for the website and social media seemed to fit me well. So, the choice was made rather quickly!

Now, as I sit here typing, the first regular guests already know my name and greet me every morning. It sometimes feels like a second home, with a great team and lovely guests. You can always drop by for a chat (if it’s not too busy, of course).

So if you get a call or email from a Robin, that's me!
With kind island regards,
Robin Waerts

Guests about Texelvakanties

What a good company Texelvakanties is. The apartment was excellent, and exactly as described. Wonderful that view of the dunes and the sea. In addition, communication with Texelvakanties is extremely pleasant and professional. Next time we go back to Texel we will definitely book again at Texelvakanties!
Everything perfect!!!
A well-organized company for the rental of a stay on Texel. We have been booking there for many years and are always perfectly fine!
Spent a week in apartment Juliana 172. Upon entering we immediately became happy with the SCHONE and renovated apartment. We regularly come across it differently. Owner appreciates his guests by renting out his apartment in top condition. The reception was also good at the reception. We will definitely be back in this apartment complex.
We go here for a week every year because it is a wonderfully quiet place, with a beautiful view over the sea with inimitable sunsets in colors, walking distance beach and village with all lively bars and restaurants. This is the ultimate resting place for us and yet everything at hand if you want. There are apartments with sea view and land view, there is a price difference.
Great apartments, especially for dog lovers. Very good and fast service if something does not work. The rooms are nicely decorated and the kitchen has everything you need. The city of De Koog can be reached on foot in 3 minutes, as well as the beach. A wonderful place for a holiday.
Holiday park Kamperfoelie fine, clean and well-kept house as well as the entire park! Both downstairs and above spacious. Spacious neat garden and bossage; everything neatly cared for. Highly recommended close to the beach and supermarket (walking distance).
Located in a beautiful spot in the dunes and against the Koog. Is a bit dated on the outside but very neat on the inside. With excellent rooms.
Great accommodation at reasonable prices.
Great facility with fantastic sea views!
Lovely house and very guest and animal friendly. We would like to come back.
We have been coming to Villapark Kamperfoelie for 25 years, which proves that it is great there ! Spacious cozy villas with everything you need. During all these years, investments were made in renovations to make it even more pleasant for travelers. The villas are always neatly polished. It is always pleasant to stay in Kamperfoelie. If there is a small problem, however minimal, you can report this and this will be solved very quickly. Team Tex…
