Enjoy Resorts Rømø
Spa, golf and thatched-roof holiday houses on Rømø’s wild North Sea edge, combining island nature, wellness indulgence and relaxed, family-friendly resort living.
Island retreat on the edge of the Wadden Sea
Enjoy Resorts Rømø sits on the southern part of Rømø, a barrier island shaped for centuries by wind, sand and tides between the North Sea and the Wadden Sea. Low, thatched-roof houses in warm brick echo traditional island farms, but behind the classic silhouettes you step into modern, fully equipped holiday homes. Wide skies, distant dunes and the call of seabirds make it clear you are in a genuine North Sea landscape rather than a typical mainland resort. From the terraces and upstairs balconies, many houses face over the golf course, salt marshes and, in the distance, the shimmering tidal flats. The resort’s paths weave between heather and dune grasses, so even when you are walking to the spa or restaurant you are surrounded by a sense of raw coastal nature. The sea itself is never far away, with Rømø’s famously broad sandy beaches just beyond the horizon.Wellness sanctuary of steam, salt and silence
One of the resort’s biggest draws is its expansive wellness centre, arranged across several zones of pools, saunas and relaxation rooms. Hot and cold baths, steam rooms with varying temperatures, and quiet lounges invite you to slow down to the rhythm of island time. Subtle lighting, natural stone and wood finishes create a calm, cocooning atmosphere where you can easily spend hours drifting between experiences. There is also an indoor pool area more geared to play, with a larger swimming basin for splashing and simple laps. While the wellness area has dedicated quiet times and age limits to preserve a spa-like mood, selected morning hours allow families to bring children into parts of the complex. It is this mix of indulgent spa rituals and practical family facilities that makes the resort feel accessible rather than exclusive.Scandinavian living in thatched holiday houses
Accommodation is arranged as semi-detached and terraced holiday houses, each configured like a small Scandinavian home. Open-plan living spaces come with fireplaces, dining areas and well-equipped kitchens suited to self-catering stays. Many units include dishwashers and washing machines, making longer breaks and multi-generation trips easy to manage. Bedrooms are tucked under sloping roofs or on ground level, often with flexible sleeping arrangements. Large windows and glass doors pull in as much daylight as possible, reflecting the region’s love of bright, uncluttered interiors. Simple, functional furnishings keep the focus on comfort rather than formality. Step outside and you typically have a terrace or balcony, sometimes with views over the golf greens or low-lying wetlands. The feeling is of staying in a private holiday home with the added benefit of resort amenities just a short walk away.Links golf and windswept coastal landscapes
Next to the resort lies an 18-hole links-style golf course laid out along dunes and open fields. Designed in the spirit of classic coastal courses, it features undulating fairways, fast-running greens and constant North Sea breezes that keep the game engaging for experienced players. Water hazards and sandy areas blend with natural vegetation, and many holes offer sweeping views across the island and out to sea. For non-golfers, the surrounding area is equally rewarding. Paths lead out toward Rømø’s nature reserves, where migrating birds rest on their long journeys and shifting sands change the shoreline from season to season. The island’s famously wide beach, accessible from elsewhere on Rømø, is one of Europe’s broadest, offering ample room for walks, kite-flying and simply watching the light dance across the tidal flats.Relaxed resort life for couples, families and friends
On site, you will find a casual restaurant and bar, play areas for children and simple conveniences like bike-friendly paths and seating corners for reading or chatting. The atmosphere balances laid-back holiday mood with the structure of a resort, so couples can disappear into the spa while families gravitate toward the pool or outdoor playgrounds. Evenings often settle into quiet conversations on terraces, with the glow of interior lights dotted against the darkening sky. Because so much is available within the resort, many guests choose to spend entire days without leaving the grounds, alternating between spa sessions, golf, leisurely meals and moments of calm in their holiday houses. Yet the constant presence of wind, weather and sea views never lets you forget that you are on a small North Sea island, where nature remains the real star of the show.Local tips
- Pack swimwear and flip-flops specifically for the spa and pool areas; bringing a small bag for towels and water makes moving between facilities easier.
- Plan at least one full half-day just for the wellness centre so you can enjoy the different saunas, pools and relaxation rooms without rushing.
- If you are keen on golf, book tee times in advance and ask for slots that coincide with clearer weather and lower winds, especially outside summer.
- Use the kitchen for breakfasts and simple dinners, then treat yourself to the on-site restaurant or nearby island eateries for a change of atmosphere.
- Bring layers and windproof clothing; even in warmer months, Rømø’s coastal breeze can feel cool when you are out walking by the sea after spa time.

Getting There
-
Car from mainland Jutland
Most guests arrive by car via the Rømø Dam, the causeway connecting the island to mainland Jutland. From larger towns like Esbjerg or Kolding, the drive typically takes 1 to 2 hours depending on traffic and weather. There is no toll on the dam, and parking is usually available directly by the holiday houses and main facilities at the resort at no extra charge.
-
Train and bus connection
If you travel by public transport, you can take a regional train to Skærbæk station on the mainland and continue by bus toward Rømø, with a total journey time of about 1.5 to 2.5 hours from major Jutland hubs. Standard regional fares apply and a combined train–bus trip within the region typically falls in the range of 80–200 DKK per adult, depending on distance and ticket type. Services run year-round but may be less frequent in the evening and on weekends.
-
Bicycle from elsewhere on Rømø
For those already staying elsewhere on Rømø, cycling to the resort is a pleasant option, taking around 15 to 40 minutes from most of the island’s small settlements. The terrain is mostly flat, but coastal winds can be strong, so allow extra time and effort, particularly in autumn and winter. Bike racks are available around the resort, and bringing lights and reflective gear is important outside summer when daylight hours are shorter.
