versions of classic beach cottages con-
taining four bedrooms each and all the
amenities necessary for a stress-free
and flexible holiday. The spacious houses
are wooden and painted in bright colours,
giving the lovely impression of an over-
grown Astrid Lindgren village. The Rømø
houses are modern and luxurious. Book-
ing a holiday at either resort provides ac-
cess to the resorts’ many facilities.

Roaming, rest and relaxation

Rømø, on the western side of Jutland,
features one of the best and longest
beaches in Europe and land-based na-
ture to match. “I feel very lucky to work
in these beautiful surroundings,” Olsen
admits, standing by the resort’s restau-
rant on Rømø and looking out towards
the sea. “The Wadden Sea is simply
amazing.” The UNESCO world herit-
age site has been designated a nature
reserve thanks to its teeming wildlife,
which ranges from bountiful wild oys-
ters ripe for the picking in the autumn to
Denmark’s busiest bird migration desti-
nation in the autumn and spring. A large

population of common seals can also be

found frolicking in the waves alongside

surfers for most of the year.

People aching for a relaxing time away

ought to take a leaf out of the seals’ book

and head to Rømø. Aside from the natu-

ral wonders, the island features a range

of activities to bring you out of the rut

of daily life, though Rømø also contains

a conference centre, proving that busi-

ness and pleasure do go hand in hand.

“We have a proper 18-hole links course

as well as a good practice nine-hole

course where anyone can test out their

golfing skills, regardless of experience,”

says Olsen. “Adrenaline junkies can head

to the beach, where they can experience

speeds up of to 70 kilometres per hour

riding wind-powered vehicles along the

14-kilometre beach.”

The most popular part of the resort,

however, is decidedly not adrenaline-

provoking. Denmark’s largest wellness

centre is spread over 2,600 square metres,

with plenty of smaller rooms and areas to

let you find your own private nook to space

out in. You would need to book about five

weeks there in order to try out every ser-

vice, treatment and facility. Apart from

standards such as saunas and Jacuzzis,

they include six pools of varying temper-

ature and salt levels, three different types

of foot massage canals, several massage

showers, tropical rainfall and a relaxing

atrium garden – and that is just the facili-

ties. Treatments range from fish spas and

steaming cupboards to classic massages,

facial treatments and mani-pedis. Many

of the facilities and treatments can also be

found at the wellness centre in Gråsten,

which, though smaller, still spans 1,900

square metres.

Frankly, if you are not fully relaxed and

full of new experiences at the end of your

stay, then you may have no one but your-

self to blame.
