Welcome to Apartment 495 Texel
Experience the Island Vibe


Welcome
Since January 1st, 2020, we have been the proud owners of Apartment 495. At that time, the interior was outdated and dark, so we gave it a major refresh: new kitchen, flooring, painting, furniture, and mattresses. In March 2023, we installed a new luxury bathroom and toilet. All this to make your stay as comfortable as possible.
We have been coming to Texel with great pleasure for over 20 years. We enjoy the peace, beautiful beaches, and the forest, as well as the charm of the lovely villages. Texel is beautiful and enjoyable to visit all year round.
We wish you a wonderful stay in our apartment.
Holiday greetings,
Ewout & Sabrina Paulusma
