Hotel Seelust

Set directly on the white sandy shores of the Baltic Sea, this 3.5-star bed and breakfast hotel offers a prime beachfront location.

All double rooms feature panoramic bay views and come with a private bathroom with shower, flat-screen TV, radio, telephone, hairdryer, and an in-room safe. Single rooms, meanwhile, overlook the land.

A hearty breakfast buffet is served in the historic art-deco ballroom, originally built in the early 1930s to host the award ceremonies for the 1936 sailing events.

The hotel terrace is perfect for enjoying breakfast or drinks throughout the day while watching yachts sail by. For pure relaxation, the sauna offers stunning views of the beach and sea. Free Wi-Fi is available across the entire property.

The medieval town of Eckernförde and its train station are just a five-minute walk away. Kiel—the capital of Schleswig-Holstein—Kappeln, and Schleswig can all be reached within 30 minutes by car.

Eckernförde is an ideal base not only for Baltic Sea enthusiasts but also for exploring northern Schleswig-Holstein. Guests can enjoy cultural outings to state museums, country estates, and Haithabu, hikes in the Hüttener Mountains, Windeby Noor, day trips to the North Sea coast, or events like the Schleswig-Holstein Music Festival and Green Screen Film Festival. Sailing competitions and activities such as golfing, horseback riding, and snorkeling are also close at hand.
