This property was great, staff was amazing. Water was hot for showers and they were very responsive with all my needs. The only downfall to this place is not having a microwave anywhere in the resort.

10/10 Exceptional

The place is amazing, quiet and safe. You feel at home. Lysandra is super informative and helped us getting a car and also she is friendly. The only down thing was getting the coffee machine but not getting water to add to the machine, and the fridge was dirty. We left with wanting to come back. And we will. Curacao is amazing!

10/10 Exceptional

I absolutely loved my stay at this resort. The room was cozy and very clean, and I loved having my own outdoor patio area. There was a pool directly near my room, and the beach access with the day bed options was incredible. The Asian restaurant was delicious, and I enjoyed a massage near the beach as a nice end to my vacation. There was so much to do at night, all within walking distance. I truly enjoyed this resort and will be back.
