About Hotel de Wadden

Hotel de Wadden (3-star) is located in the historic Dorpsstraat of Oost-Vlieland. The building once housed the local maritime school. Today, this cozy and contemporary family hotel offers a warm and personal atmosphere.

At Hotel de Wadden, guests can enjoy delicious food in our restaurant, while just outside the door they’ll find lively terraces and charming shops. The hotel’s garden borders directly on the Wadden Sea, and the forests, dunes, and beach are all within walking distance.

Hotel de Wadden has three Food & Beverage outlets, offering you a great opportunity to learn during your internship:

• Eetcafé ’t Praethuys – a warm and welcoming spot where guests can easily join at the bar or reading table.
• Brasserie de Wadden – serving French-inspired cuisine.
• ZeeVaert Bar & Pizzeria – offering fresh pizzas and Italian-inspired dishes.

As an intern, you will gain valuable experience and further develop your skills. We place high importance on training students, and if both sides are satisfied, we’ll also discuss the possibility of continuing your career with us after your internship.

We offer the following internships:

• Food & Beverage
• Kitchen
