Spain is my favourite holiday destination and feels like my second home to me. I have precious memories of holidays in Van der Valk Hotel Barcarola and in our family home in Marbella. Together with my brothers, sisters, their children and grandma Toos; We all enjoy it immensely. The beautiful weather, the Mediterranean Sea and the fine beach are of course the best ingredients for the ultimate holiday feeling. I also love tapas, sangria and Spanish music. What struck me the last time I saw in Spanish nightlife is that no matter how hip a restaurant is, you almost always see the traditional Spanish character. For example, in mosaics or in the dishes on the menu. That is something that was also paramount in the renovation of Hotel Nuland: we go with the trends, but will never forget how it all started. I am therefore very pleased that in this edition of Valk Magazine the renovated hotel. Because first of all Van der Valk restaurant with hotel rooms, many valuable memories have also been made in Hotel Nuland and there will undoubtedly be many more!
