Frequently Asked Questions

The eventful history of Weissenhaus Castle Estate and its owners dates back to the 16th century. Read the entire story here.

Weissenhaus, as it is to visit today, opened in July 2014 as the Weissenhaus Grand Village Resort & Spa by the sea. In 2023 we decided to change the name to Weissenhaus Private Nature Luxury Resort.

Please find detailed directions here.

Resort guests: We charge € 25.00 per vehicle and night for parking spaces on our premises, including our valet parking and shuttle service. The shuttle service provided in our comfortable BMW electric fleet is available daily from 8.00 am to 10.00 pm within our grounds. Should you prefer a covered car park within our carport facility, please reserve these limited spaces in advance. A surcharge of € 15.00 per night applies.
One-day visitors: The parking facilities for visitors are located on the designated dyke car parking area directly by the sea via Seestraße (K48). Here you will find direct access to the Bootshaus restaurant.

Weissenhaus is a private property and exclusively accessible to resort guests. We therefore do not offer guided tours or walks. With respect for the privacy of the guests, the buildings are not open to visitors.

In recent years, Weissenhaus' target group has become more and more established and now comprises 95% adults seeking peace and relaxation. For this reason, we have decided to become an Adults Only Resort and welcome our guests from the age of 12. In the case of arrival with children under 12 years of age, accommodation is excluded and the agreed cancellation conditions remain valid.

Dogs are welcome (on request & subject to reconfirmation by the resort, in designated room categories, max. 1 dog per room). Our 75-hectare grounds offer ideal opportunities for extended walks with your four-legged friend. A cosy basket, a water bowl, a food bowl as well as a hearty snack are prepared for your pet in the room.
The gourmet restaurant Courtier including the terrace, as well as the entire castle and the Schlosstherme SPA are not accessible for dogs. Your dog is very welcome in the Restaurant Bootshaus as well as the terrace of the breakfast restaurant Kavaliershaus and the terrace of the Asiabar located behind the castle.
Please always include your pet when booking a table and our staff will select the ideal seat with sufficient space for you. Please also note that dogs must be kept on a lead on the entire resort grounds, which also applies to the restaurant terraces of the Bootshaus, Kavaliershaus and the Asiabar.
If you would like to enjoy a dog-free afternoon or evening without leaving your four-legged friend alone in the room, please contact our reception at least 48 hours in advance and take advantage of our dog sitting service. A highlight on holiday with your dog is the dog beach belonging to the resort. We charge € 45,00 per dog & night for the overnight stay of your four-legged friend, as well as the preparation & cleaning of the room.
