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

Very professional and pleasant staff, clean, well equipped apartments, friendly and hospitable, great!
Texel and February / March are beautiful places to relax and gain new energy. Apartment complex Juliajana in De Koog is simply perfectly located between sea and dunes. Behind the house, from the parking lot, you (and your dog) can reach the sea via a large spruce forest. The apartment was very well equipped and clean!
Super apartment, great view over land and sea. Top beds that you can sleep well on, and no sagging mattresses. Shops close by, beach close by really great. And not to forget the staff of the apartment complex are very friendly.
We had a wonderful extended weekend at Juliana Appartamenten #104. It is very tasteful and modern + we lacked nothing. The booking worked smoothly, even the keys on our late arrival was perfectly organized.
Villapark Kamperfoelie . Very nice complex and well-equipped houses, perfect location for a relaxing holiday!
Beautiful clean, very well-maintained luxury houses on a beautifully landscaped small-scale park with lots of privacy. Close to forest, sea and dunes. And the center of De Koog.
Super holiday, with inquiries prompt feedback and completion thanks
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…
There are flats of different sizes and decoration. Cleanliness is fine and if there are any complaints, the staff respond immediately. We will definitely holiday here again.
We had another very nice holiday in Villapark Kamperfoelie. The location is ideal, the houses are beautiful. We keep coming back!!!
The booking, arrival and processing of the reservation by the staff was fantastic. The bungalow Vredelust 57 had everything and more we needed for our holiday. We loved the large garden - an absolute plus for families with children and dogs! We would come back any time.
We have already booked holiday homes and apartments several times via Texel holidays and have always been satisfied in every way!
