Fantastic culinary experience in a beautifully situated building and domain, top six-course menu very refined, also very decent adapted wines such as white Italian Langhe Massolino, excellent Rias Baixas Albarino Granbazan, strong South African Stellenbosch Strydom. Extremely friendly and helpful staff who make everything to your liking, for example my wife was able to choose a modified light version of the gourmet menu without any problems. Wonderful, extremely spacious and luxuriously furnished rooms to round off the whole. A really top address, and all this for correct prices for this 5-star level (200 € for room incl breakfast, 96 €/6 course menu, with wine pairing +50 €/6 glasses).Delicious and very refined breakfast.

The rooms are fully equipped, clean and tidy. The kitchen utensils are also very complete and can be simple to cook. The room is located in the essence of Yangjiao Village, you can go out for a walk any time. Friendly service. Yangjiao Village is so beautiful and worth living here.

The holiday home is ideally located in the waters of Giethoorn. The car stops at the parking lot outside the hotel and walks 200 meters past the bridge to the resort. When we arrived, it was already 7 o'clock. We contacted the owner in advance and added 25 Euros to wait for us. The owner is a straightforward old man, and people are not bad. There is one house per household, which can accommodate 4 people. There is a kitchen utensils for cooking. You can bring your own food for cooking. There are also many restaurants and bars on the street outside the hotel. It is very convenient. The scenery in the resort is invincible. It is recommended to stay for 2 days, and there are many places to play. One day is really not fun. Be sure to clean the kitchen utensils before you check out. Finally, I reminded Chinese tourists who went to Yangjiao Village to play. In the scenic area, someone pretending to be a policeman to drive a car. The people in the back seat pulled down the window and took out the police card to see your passport. Don’t ignore them, myself. I ignored them and they left, but I saw a pair of Chinese young people grabbing bags from them. They stared at the Chinese and they must pay attention!

The owner, Sander, is extremely typical in being tight and inconsiderate of customers who are not satisfied. We had a flood in our bathroom due to the walk in shower, and even though he tried to fix it, it still flooded afterwards. Nothing was done about keeping us happy or compensating for this terrible experience. Showers were limited for us, they were cut short and caused inconvenience with us left with shampoo in our hair! No complimentary drink to say sorry, in fact no-one even apologised for any of the unfortunate events that occurred with the shower! So shocking and completely unprofessional. When I then look at their target audience, I realise the majority of the customers are over the age of 60, so they probably are oblivious to all the problems. Very defensive staff, especially on check out who just looked as pathetic as a teenager being told off. She obviously had been warned by Sander and went straight into defence mode. Again, very amateur and unprofessional. Also, the soap and shampoo facilities for a so-called four star hotel was a joke. Locked in tubes and half empty on the day of arrival. Four or five star hotels usually utilise miniature toiletries. I have travelled a lot and know that this method is typical of 2/3 star hotels or motels, which I tend to avoid. Again a way of saving money and a short cut. Lame. Just lame. The buffet dinner was bland, tasteless and rather disgusting. It is not live cooking - it is a shambles; children fingering all the food with dirty hands, and then expecting us to eat it. No thanks. Waste of money and complete rip off room prices. Best of luck to this potential old people's home. If my grandparents were still alive, I would still not recommend the hotel to them. They would deserve better, as did we. Have the decency not to rate yourself on what is visible on the surface (the view/location etc) but actually on the ins and outs of staying there. It is terrible but the worst thing was the staff's attitude. I am so happy they do not treat customers like this in the UK. Shame on Sander and his appalling staff. Disgusting. Useless. Waste of space. Good luck.
