Come and enjoy pure relaxation at Hotel Opduin. Here you will find a heated indoor swimming pool, jacuzzi, Finnish sauna, Turkish steam bath, solarium and beauty salon. The Spa Woolness at Boutique Hotel Texel is also highly recommended. An oasis of tranquillity, surrounded by nature. During a Woolness wool bath, you will be wrapped in warm Texel sheep's wool for a healing experience. Enjoy a relaxing spa experience and time together. For extra luxury, you can book a stay with your own sauna or jacuzzi.

3. Stargazing in a dark place

Texel has little light pollution, making it the ideal place for stargazing. Bring a blanket and find a nice location to enjoy the clear night sky together.
