Discover Old Giethoorn

Resort Venetië is part of Old Giethoorn, a collaboration between local businesses in Giethoorn North and Middle. Together, we are committed to offering a welcoming, peaceful and authentic way to experience Giethoorn, with attention to the water, nature and the distinctive character of the village.

From Resort Venetië, you stay directly by the water and can easily explore the surrounding area. Giethoorn North and Middle are characterised by picturesque canals, thatched farmhouses, wooden bridges and open waterways leading towards Lake Bovenwijde. Here, you can enjoy peaceful and relaxed boating, with less boat traffic and without the familiar boat traffic jams in the busiest part of Giethoorn.

On the Old Giethoorn website, you will find an increasing amount of information about local businesses and what to do in Giethoorn North and Middle. This helps you discover opportunities for peaceful boating, walking, cycling, dining and enjoying nature around Weerribben-Wieden National Park. The shared offering is being developed step by step.

Resort Venetië is also part of this local collaboration. From our waterfront chalet park, you can discover the peaceful side of Giethoorn at your own pace.
