Less than a year ago, the central building of the Beekse Bergen holiday park burned down. Now there is a completely new building including swimming pool, restaurant, supermarket and snack bar. The building will be opened on Thursday 2 June and the holiday park will also be given a new name: Lake Resort.
Not only has the central building been completely renovated, the former holiday park has also been given a new look. “It has mainly become more luxurious,” says spokesperson Linda Engels van de Beekse Bergen. “In recent months, new ‘cabins’ or houses and safari tents have been placed.”
“Actually, everything has to get better than it was.”
The entire former holiday park on the lake has had a makeover. “Sanitary buildings have been tackled and holiday homes have been refurbished. The intention is to raise the entire park to a higher level,” explains spokesman Engels. “Actually, everything has become better than it was, hence the name change to Lake Resort. That sounds more luxurious and we already had our Safari Resort with a high standard.”
“It is a moment for the Beekse Bergen, this name change,” says Engels. “We have worked hard to improve the quality and we are giving our park a new name that does justice to that. It is then exciting whether the public appreciates that.”
The new building cannot be seen from the main entrance of the Safari Park. “You first have to drive a little further to the back of the lake. That’s where the burned-out building was too.”
The entire building burned down in June.
Waiting for privacy settings…
The new central building and the Lake Resort was built in the atmosphere of an African tribe, Ewe. This is reflected in the color choices, architectural style, patterns and use of materials. The new central building has been given the name Ganvie Village. Ganvie is an important place for this tribe in Benin. All the houses here are on stilts on a lake.
