Romantik Hotel Achterdiek: greetings from the front desk
Juist is one of the quietest of the East Frisian islands — seventeen kilometres of narrow land, completely car-free, called “Töwerland” (magic land) by the islanders. Horse-drawn carriages and bicycles set the pace. In the middle of the island village, sheltered behind the dyke, lies the Romantik Hotel Achterdiek, a family-run four-star-superior house with a signature of its own.
560 m² spa with a salt-water pool. The heart of the house is a 560 m² wellness area around water: an 85 m² salt-water pool, a whirlpool, themed saunas, a steam bath, a tepidarium and a solarium, plus rest rooms. The salt water takes up the healing power of the sea that surrounds the island — wellness that brings the bracing climate of the North Sea indoors.
Island, cuisine and calm. The Achterdiek is a member of the Romantik Hotels and known for its cuisine; a stay combines island calm with culinary ambition. On the doorstep begin the wide beaches and the UNESCO World Natural Heritage Wadden Sea; without car traffic Juist is a place of true deceleration. The island is reached by ferry from Norddeich.
