Museum delft

Staycation tip number 1: Away for a day 

For a vacation feeling you don't necessarily have to take weeks off. It's all up to you, if you can loosen up you can have a vacation feeling for a day! Not only that, you don't have to go abroad to have a vacation feeling. Vacations in your own country will bring surprises. For example, go to a city for a day, but not the obvious one. But think of The Hague, Zoetermeer, Schiedam and so on. Play tourist in your own country and go to that nice museum you've always wanted to go to!

Close to Hotel Casa Julia is the Delft Wood Beach. Also called the Great Puddle. It is not by the sea but this place certainly gives you the summer vibes. Around the lake there is a forest. So do you want to cool down? Take a dip in the lake or take a walk through the forest!

Cycling in nature the netherlands

Staycation tip number 4: Make a bike tour

Did you know that you can rent bikes at Hotel Casa Julia? It is definitely a must to cycle to Abtwoudse Bos. Our colleagues can also show you the best routes. And you don't have to cycle in one piece. Think of a stop with a nice ice cream or a drink on a nice terrace! It's also nice to explore the smaller villages. A nice alternative is to go picnicking. This is guaranteed to give you a vacation feeling!

relaxing on bed

Staycation tip number 5: Relax your body 

During your vacation it is also important that your body gets some rest, because you now have more time for that. Get an extra hour of sleep or spoil yourself with ME-time. Facial mask, a pedicure or just on the couch with a nice cup of tea. ME-time creates balance in your life. We strongly recommend that you don't plan your weeks off completely full of activities. Because when you have to go back to work you run out. Your body becomes stressed and can get a negative attitude. When you are recharged you can handle your busy life more easily. Afterwards you will notice that after some time you are more creative and productive for yourself.
