Spend your vacation on Borkum in a wonderfully idyllic setting! Built in 1911 and modernized in 1995, the “Sleeboom” islander’s house is located in the heart of the traffic-calmed zone on Süderstraße—a charming, historic island street.

The Sleeboom family is one of the oldest families on Borkum; it can look back on a history spanning over 400 years. Vacationers have always been a part of our family’s life—and we’re already looking forward to welcoming you as our guest!

The “Sleeboom” house on Borkum is in a great location! You’re just 10 minutes from the South Beach, 15 minutes from the North Beach, and Borkum’s town center is just a few meters’ walk away. There’s a bakery right around the corner for fresh breakfast rolls, and a grocery store as well.

The constant gentle breeze, the scent of the sea, the sand beneath your feet—these things make your body and soul feel wonderfully at ease and clear your mind of stress and everyday worries.

Wilhelm Busch already knew this; he spent his vacations on Borkum from 1876 to 1879 and left posterity this beautiful poem from that time:

As long as the heart and eyes are open,

to take delight in the beauty around us,

as long as that is the case, we may joyfully hope,

that the world will also remain.
