Hotel-Restaurant-Jachthaven Galamadammen
Dear Guest,
In March 2022, the municipality of Súdwest-Fryslân approached Galamadammen with the request to accommodate Ukrainian refugees. Currently, around 145 refugees are still being sheltered at Galamadammen. Since the situation in Ukraine has not improved, and may even have worsened, the municipality has once again asked us to continue hosting refugees for another two years. Naturally, we are happy to open our doors again.
Given the extension of the reception period over the coming year, the following adjustments are in effect:
Hotel and Restaurant: The hotel, rooms, restaurant, and terraces will be fully utilized for the accommodation of the refugees. The swimming pool and sauna are closed. Large events such as receptions, weddings, meetings, and parties cannot take place for the time being.
Marina: The marinas will remain open during the summer season and part of the winter season for the rental of berths to seasonal guests and transient visitors. The sanitary facilities located beneath the hotel remain available for marina users.
Berths are still available; please contact us at info@galamadammen.nl
We understand that the inability to resume our usual services and facilities is disappointing for our regular guests. Our primary goal in the coming year is to continue this humanitarian shelter effort. We thank you in advance for your understanding and support for this social commitment.
Although providing shelter is our primary focus, the development of Galamadammen is not on hold. We are actively working on future plans in collaboration with Penta architectural firm and in close consultation with the municipality and province.
The municipality of Súdwest-Fryslân issued a communiqué for Galamadammen guests in March 2022, available via Communiqué Gemeente Südwest-Fryslân. If you wish to approach the municipality with requests for assistance, questions, or complaints regarding the shelter, please use the contact details published on their website.
Together with all involved parties, we hope that the refugees who have had to flee their homes during this war are received with warmth and kindness. We hope that together we can alleviate some of the horrors they have endured, and that a peaceful resolution to the conflict is found quickly.
Sincerely,
Management Galamadammen
