Vacation at the “Elly” Vacation Rental – Welcome to the North Sea Spa Town of Esens-Bensersiel
The house housing the “Elly” vacation rental is located right in the heart of the old town of Esens in the North Sea spa town of Esens-Bensersiel, and truly. The North Sea spa town of Bensersiel and the beach are just four kilometers away and are located directly within the unique natural wonder that is the “Lower Saxony Wadden Sea National Park,” a “UNESCO World Natural Heritage Site” since 2009.

The vacation rental is located in the heart of the beautiful old knight’s town of Esens, with excellent transportation connections by car or bicycle to the nearby North Sea spa town of Bensersiel and the nearby North Sea spa town of Neuharlingersiel. You’ll be staying just a few meters from Esens’ beautiful pedestrian zone.

The “Elly” vacation rental is ideal for a cozy North Sea vacation for 2 to 4 people, including a toddler. The apartment is warmly designed and furnished, very cozy, and well-equipped. In its approximately 40 square meters, you’ll find everything you need for a relaxing vacation, such as a small but fully equipped kitchenette with a dishwasher.

From the “Elly” vacation rental, it’s just a few meters to the pedestrian zone, “Steinstraße,” and to the market square of Esens, known as the “City of Bears.” There you’ll find lovely shops for a leisurely shopping stroll, as well as plenty to browse and marvel at. There’s a wide variety of dining options, including cafes and restaurants, both indoors and outdoors.

We’d be happy to tell you all about the attractions of our cozy and charming town of Esens—which is over 475 years old and features a historic town center—and, of course, the “highlights” of the North Sea spa town of Bensersiel. For example, we also have plenty of events—both big and small—and museums. Or you can simply enjoy some peace and quiet on your balcony.

For example, head north by bike across the idyllic East Frisian marshlands and, if you prefer, along the “Benser Tief” to Bensersiel. This way, you’ll reach the beach at a leisurely pace and feeling refreshed.

Of course, you can also get there in just a few minutes by car, but by bike—depending on the route you choose—you’ll reach the sea and Bensersiel in about 4 to 6 kilometers in a state of complete relaxation, having already breathed in plenty of healthy sea air, and you’ll be able to especially enjoy the beach and the many tourist, spa, and vacation facilities.

Our location is ideal for long walks, bike tours, and explorations of East Frisia’s unique natural landscape. This way, you can enjoy an active yet relaxing vacation on the North Sea and make the most of the North Sea’s invigorating climate.

By car, you can reach Bensersiel or Neuharlingersiel in 5 to 10 minutes. You can also easily reach both of these coastal villages and North Sea health resorts by bus.
