Sustainability was a central consideration during planning and construction: Natural woods and durable materials were used, complemented by furniture of timeless design and carefully selected second-life finds. The outdoor areas also reflect this approach: A natural swimming pond replaces the traditional pool concept, and a permaculture garden and native plants promote biodiversity. Even the wellness island with a sauna and bar relies on simple, repurposed structures and energy-efficient systems. The cabins were crafted in the Netherlands from sustainable wood and furnished with a blend of Dutch and Belgian design. This not only reduced transport costs but also supported local craftsmanship.

Regional products are used, such as meat from Dierendonck, vegetables from surrounding farmers, and other regional specialties. Guests can also collect fresh herbs, seasonal vegetables, and eggs directly from the on-site garden and from the farm's own chickens. Meals are prepared on a small, self-directed scale to minimize food waste; leftovers are separated, and organic waste is often given directly to the chickens or composted. A highlight for guests is the Dierendonck barbecue package: premium meat that can be prepared on your private terrace under the trees, accompanied by a glass of wine – simple, yet particularly fitting for a get-together in nature.

Employees can use the wellness island, bicycles, and sauna free of charge, and regularly enjoy an overnight stay in one of the cabins themselves. Training programs in sustainability, guest relations, and general hospitality skills are also offered, ensuring that working here is both a matter of development and enjoyment. Commitment to the local community is also part of the concept: social and cultural initiatives in Ostend are supported, including projects that bring people together around nature and well-being. Collaborations with organizations that promote inclusion and provide recreational opportunities for disadvantaged groups also give these people the chance to experience a stay in the cabins.

This commitment has been recognized by the international Green Key label, which stands for particularly sustainable tourism. Sustainability is evident in many details: The cabins are designed as tiny houses, equipped with good insulation and efficient heating, keeping energy consumption low; they are powered exclusively by green energy. Rainwater is collected and reused, and cleaning is done with eco-certified products.

Guests can enjoy a private sauna on a small island in the natural swimming pond. Yoga sessions and Intermittent Living Escapes—a retreat program that combines nature-based relaxation with scientifically sound lifestyle interventions—round out the offerings. The focus is on simple, natural ways to rejuvenate: fresh air, exercise, good food, and plenty of rest.
