The Reef Water Hotel in Frederikshavn Denmark

Quality Hotel The Reef will undergo renovations of the water park and common areas over the next few months, and a new restaurant concept will be in place by summer 2025. During the renovation period, the water park will be closed. The rest of the hotel will remain open during this time. Some noise related to the renovation work is to be expected. The water park closes on November 4th.

A tropical getaway is closer than you think. Located in the heart of Frederikshavn, The Reef hotel is part resort, part water park and 100% bliss – and with Stena Line, getting to this family oasis is half the fun.

With its tropical temperatures, adventure pools, hot tubs and waterslides, the Reef is an indoor beach hotel where it’s summer all year. Splash, laugh and make memories in the water park and play room, then get ready to feast. Calypso restaurant offers up great Caribbean dishes, while Det Gule Parkhus serves seasonally minded dishes in a rustic chic environment. And the Lobster Bob’s and the Sundeck offer refreshing libations perfect for poolside sipping.

The Reef's rooms provide the comfort you’ve come to expect from Scandic Hotels. You’ll find cosy standard rooms, large accommodations for large families and even a Master Suite with harbour views. No matter your preference, you’ll find great comfort and a delicious breakfast buffet with each booking.

Stena Danica, Stena Vinga and Stena Jutlandica offer multiple daily sailings daily to Frederikshavn, allowing you to shop, eat, drink and play en route to your tropical getaway. And once our ship is in port, the entry to this slice of paradise is a short walk away!

As a bonus, The Reef’s central location is great for exploring the region by car and by foot. Stroll Frederikshavn’s charming town centre or continue your journey around Denmark’s Jutland peninsula. Or just sit back, relax and stay at the resort. When you have so many things to do at The Reef, it’s understandable that you’d want to stay on your own personal “island.”
