These efforts have ensured that Villa Park De Koog has received the Green Key Gold certificate since 2022. Below are some examples of our sustainable business operations at Villa Park De Koog.

- This native planting is also important for Texel's insect species. We have aslo built an insect hotel for them at the park.

'Villapark De Koog is a fairly new park. So during construction we were already able to take sustainability into account. To generate energy in a sustainable way, we fitted all villas with heat pumps and solar panels.'
