Ferienhof Marlin - Dirk Höpfner

We arrived in a small, cozy village. With a lot of peace, little traffic and nice people.The landlords gave us and our dog a really friendly welcome.They welcomed us to the beautiful house “Rügen”, where everything was very cozy and homely furnished. The highlight was the studio bedroom in the gable of the house. Everything was clean and well maintained, especially the separately fenced garden for sole use.The terrace invites you to linger and relax; we spent some lovely evenings here.We were also impressed by the well-kept garden for shared use. There was a volleyball/badminton net and a table tennis table that we could use.We also got a taste of the tomatoes that were specially grown in the garden.The landlords are always friendly and helpful with help and advice. You gave us good advice, especially when it came to excursions and tips in the area.We had fun on the small natural beach in town. Another highlight is the hands-on garden in the village, where you can harvest for your own use. There are many different fruit trees and fruit bushes here.All around, the holiday farm and the village are a wonderful place to relax and slow down.Arrival and departure were uncomplicated and involved a friendly and warm conversation with the landlord.Now I would like to say a few words about the reviews I have read here.Mosquitoes and spiders exist in nature, and landlords can't do anything about it.There are fly screens on all windows and the balcony door of the house.I find it very disgraceful when you cause damage and then wonder why something is deducted from your deposit. I can only report that we received our deposit back in full without a "house inspection". Nothing is put into your own pocket here.As the guest book shows, the Höpfner family has been renting out since 1995 and the two of them do it with heart and soul.We will come back next year because we had a wonderful time. (August 17th - August 24th, 2024)

We stayed there from August 3rd. - 08/17/24 spent our vacation there (3 adults and 2 children). The landlord couple is very nice and friendly. They helped us a lot with one or two tips. We were able to relax there for 14 days and experience a lot.

We were able to accommodate dear friends of ours for 1 week with the Höpfner family. A big THANK YOU for the warm welcome, the help/advice function and the support. The rented holiday apartment was lovingly and functionally furnished. You feel comfortable and in good hands. Special requests were also fulfilled without any problems. The fly screens are a blessing. Because you know that there are always little friends by the water. I really liked the environment. Not a crowded tourist town, beautiful hiking trails (ideal with a dog), 2 small beaches in the immediate vicinity (Klausdorf and Barhöft), short distances for shopping (in Prohn - EDEKA, 2 butchers, pharmacy), many excursion destinations nearby (Stralsund, Rügen Island , Fischland Darss). Anyone looking for peace and relaxation is in good hands here. The fact that using the washing machine costs something is nothing unusual. We've had that everywhere so far. The garden area provided for use is lovingly landscaped and invited you to linger. Overall everything was very well maintained and clean. Greetings from Gisela & Manfred, they will definitely check in with you again.

We were able to spend wonderful and relaxing days here. The hosts are really nice and are happy to give you tips for excursions. The region is wonderful for cycling, walking and skating. In the immediate vicinity, within walking distance, is a beautiful swimming area, also suitable for small children, also great for SUPing. Very quiet location, but still great.Everything was clean and lovingly furnished.We were able to spend the perfect mix of active vacation and relaxation here. We'd love to come back.

In general I found the house to be quite bad and the landlords were also unfriendly. The landlord even pushed my 7-month-old dog to the ground because he had jumped up. He was of the opinion that he had a large dog himself and thought he would be better behaved that way. 👎👎👎

I found the house itself to be very old, but it was very nice and there were also a few games.I found my bed, which was a simple lounger, to be very uncomfortable and much too small for a normal person. Back pain was inevitable beforehand.The house itself was very clean and large but everything was very old and not really up to date.The upper floor is carpeted so you have to be careful not to spill or make stains.In addition, there are a thousand times more mosquitoes in the town than there are residents, but I was so bitten that I didn't feel like going out afterwards.The garden was nice, but the furniture was full of cobwebs and the large garden, which was advertised as having four options, was already very old.Even the swings and other play options were more of a risk.However, if you just wanted to sit by the fireplace you had a beautiful backdrop.

The house is in a really quiet location, if you want to experience something you always have to take at least a 20 minute drive.In my opinion, the price-performance ratio here is not right at all.Everything is very old-fashioned and outdated, whether it's bed linen, towels or kitchenware.A large part consists of promotional gifts from the institution.If you don't pay close attention, you will be charged for things that you didn't damage yourself or that were already damaged.To be honest, with cookware that has probably been in the inventory for 20 years, I think everything is fine and the landlord should perhaps take that into account.You also have to bring everything you need with you. The stove is very clean but there is no baking paper for the oven so you have to get it yourself.The cutlery is also a find from the good old days and was probably used here for cost reasons. The cutlery is as dull as a dead dog bites.The bathrooms are very clean and it's also great that you have your own bathroom in the second room and also a large bathroom in the basement.The house itself is furnished in a poppy style, which I think is a shame because the house is called Haus Rügen and has nothing to do with Rügen.There is no Baltic Sea feeling at all in this house, as there isn't even a real swimming area nearby.If you travel with a dog you are really at a loss because there is no real swimming area anywhere.What really bothered us personally was the mosquito plague, the children were the worst affected and some of them looked very battered afterwards and the somewhat arrogant landlady is of the opinion that cold water can solve everything.What I can't understand is how you can equip a house with carpeting these days, especially if a house is supposed to be suitable for dogs.What was of course very nice was the small, cozy garden, with a fenced area where even a dog can move freely, but unfortunately the garden furniture is full of cobwebs and needs to be cleaned first.A small fountain in the garden is probably intended to make the ambience more cozy.The large garden, which is for general use, is unfortunately very old. The area around it is very well maintained, but the play equipment is probably from the times when the landlord's children were still children.Unfortunately, I can't understand the many good reviews here and I also assume that these are often the landlord's circle of friends.If you visit the house, do yourself a favor and please take stock of the property together with the landlord and go through every detail so that you don't end up being charged anything.Really look at the cookware, count the plates, cups and glasses, pay attention to the pots and pans.Look at the wooden spoons and the boards and see if the kettle really works, because this family likes to charge you for everything quickly.What you should also know is that although there is a washing machine and it is included in the offer, you have to pay €5 per use and I'm not entirely sure whether the landlord doesn't actually check that.We didn't really dare to wash because I think it's really overpriced.I'm also not sure whether the family that lives right next door really pays attention to discretion.Waste is separated using a yellow bag, but you have to organize your own garbage bags because there are no bags in the house. If the family doesn't check the garbage in advance and look closely at what is thrown away.

So one thing in advance, it wasn't all negative, but the landlords should definitely be treated with caution and you should take an inventory immediately when you enter the house and tell the landlord anything that isn't quite right, otherwise he will charge you for it afterwards even though you have it didn't break it.Even if a defective item doesn't really bother you, you should definitely complain about it because in the end you are the one to blame and the deposit will be deducted. Probably a trick to fill your own pocket a little.The house itself is in a very quiet location in a place where there is absolutely nothing going on but the surroundings are very beautiful, you should just keep in mind that this corner is extremely mosquito-free because the lagoon is full of reeds and the mosquito larvae nest there and can therefore be seen you look like a crumb cake after your vacation.What I also have to say is that the house was very clean when I took it over, the sanitary rooms were without mold and really clean, but be sure to bring toilet paper with you because they don't have that here either and there aren't any small garbage bags in the trash cans either.The landlord is seemingly friendly and I personally find his wife a bit snippy.I also didn't think the way he handled my dog ​​was okay, even if he was a bit wild, he didn't have to push him to the ground and regulate things, that's my job and not his.The small garden is very nicely laid out, but everything with spider gungor is overlooked and you have to clean it up first in order to be able to sit comfortably.What I also have to say very negatively is that there is a washing machine in this house, but you have to know that you have to pay €5 per use, but this is not mentioned in the house description, so don't get excited too early that there is a washing machine. I'm actually amazed that you don't have to pay extra for the dishwasher.In this holiday home you will be asked to pay very quickly.The couch in this house is awesome, it's so soft that you get lost in it when you sit down. The old tile table of course makes the house perfect and the small 36 inch television.However, WiFi is available in this house, even if it doesn't always work 100%, but it is there and streaming with our fire TV stick also worked very well.But you can forget about the telephone network in the whole area - you only have a network again in Prohna, which is 10 km away, at least with O2, so you can definitely only make calls in the house with WLAN and via WhatsApp.The large garden with general areas was really very large and there was also a very carelessly prepared table tennis table there, which is now totally out of date and doesn't even have a net. My children didn't dare go on the swing because it was already a bit broken. Everything on the property was very outdated and outdated and no longer really approved by the TÜV, but the lawn was good and there was a volleyball field.I'm already aware that the landlord will definitely speak up here and will certainly withdraw from the affair, but I'm not making any assumptions here. I'm also quite sure that we're not the only ones the landlord is trying to deduct, it's just a shame that those to whom this happened don't speak up.

Very nice and friendly landlord, handover was uncomplicated, everything was very neat and clean. Very cozy house, we didn't miss anything. There are mosquito screens on all windows and the patio doors. The small garden for private use was cozy, the large garden for general use is huge, very well maintained and obviously laid out with great attention to detail. Children can also have a lot of fun here. We were there with two dogs, were able to go for walks directly from the house, but also went on many excursions within short distances. Thank you very much Britt and Kirsten, you are great hosts, we also really enjoyed the evening at your beautiful fireplace! We'll definitely be happy to come back :-)

We were there over Christmas 🎄 for 10 days. We received a very warm welcome. Good starting point for hikes and car trips. We felt very comfortable, and our three big dogs 🐕 🐕 🐕 also thought it was great. We'll definitely come back. Anyone looking for peace and quiet will find it here. Went home relaxed.
