Frequently asked questions

Through the quote page. Fill in the date, the number of guests, and what you have in mind. You'll usually hear back from Jeroen within a working day. Calling works too (+31 70 204 2420), as does emailing sales@mantabeach.nl.

Wedding or big party: 6 to 12 months. Summer Saturdays are often booked solid by January. Smaller groups or weekdays can sometimes fit a few weeks out. Easiest to call and check.

Yes. On quieter days or outside regular opening hours we can close the whole place off for your group. Useful for private parties, company days, or weddings where you don't want strangers wandering through. Whether it works for your date depends on what's already booked. Ask via a quote.

It depends on too many things to put a number here. 50 guests with a walking dinner is a different animal than 200 guests with a three-course menu. Request a quote and you'll get an itemised proposal.

From 20 to 1500 people. A dinner for twenty fits in a corner of the veranda; a standing party for 500 opens up the whole place. We adapt the layout to the group.

Yes. Inside there's the veranda and the restaurant, both looking out over the sea. Outside the terrace sits right on the sand. In good weather the party drifts outside on its own. When it rains, everyone stays dry inside.

Yes. The whole day can happen here: ceremony on the beach or in the veranda, drinks on the terrace, dinner in the restaurant, and party into the evening. One location saves you driving around and shifting decor.

A few each year. Sometimes a small ceremony for thirty, sometimes a wedding for 250. Check the references page for examples, or ask during a visit.

Your own florist, your own DJ or band, your own decor: almost anything goes. Jeroen (our event manager) sorts the planning with you in advance and makes sure it lands on the day. Reach him on +31 70 204 2420 or sales@mantabeach.nl.

Yes. No outside caterer. Our chef and brigade make everything themselves, whether it's snacks, a walking dinner, a buffet, or a three-course menu.

Yes. Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, halal, lactose-free, or a specific allergy: tell us in advance and the kitchen will sort a proper alternative. For larger groups we ask for the details well ahead, otherwise the kitchen ends up improvising on the day.

There's parking at Zwarte Pad and along Strandweg, both a few minutes' walk away. Easy enough by car. Bus 22 stops nearby and there are plenty of bike racks. See directions for more.

The party goes ahead. There's room inside for the full group, so when it rains or blows everyone moves in. The veranda still looks out over the sea, even in November.
