Michiel

Michiel Zeeman, born in Hilversum in the Netherlands, has a background in events and hospitality and previously served in the Royal Netherlands Air Force. Hospitality, organisation and service have therefore been central themes throughout his professional career.

Since September 2016, Michiel and his wife have been living in the picturesque village of Moraira on the beautiful Costa Blanca in Spain. Here they passionately run Spaanse Zon Vakantievilla’s, renting holiday villas from Dutch and Belgian owners to guests from the Netherlands and Belgium who are looking for a relaxing and authentic holiday experience.

Although they have been living in Spain since 2016, Michiel and his wife have known Moraira and the surrounding area for more than 25 years. Their knowledge of the region is therefore not only extensive, but also based on personal experience and a genuine love for the area.

Thanks to this long-standing connection with Moraira, they are able not only to offer their guests a comfortable holiday villa, but also valuable tips and recommendations to help them make the most of their stay on the Costa Blanca.
