The property is nice and well kept. The staff isn't very helpful especially at the front desk. There was a broken light in our suit i asked them to fix it three times, never got fixed. My oven was broke took three days to replace. This was my second time staying here, my first stay was great. I have to say the service declined. My girlfriend stayed in a single room. It was roach filled and the bathroom light was on a sensor so you had to keep moving around for the lights to stay on. It wasn't horrible but they can improve. Pool area is nice with free cabanas!!

Nice resort, our family stayed here in Aug 2024. Nice rooms, but rather dark and plain. Rooms were clean and safe. Reception staff were friendly and we had no problems. Parking was available for free in the resort as we had a rental car. Restaurant food was average, the menu was largely pasta, pizza, and hamburgers. There is a main pool in the centre of the resort which is large and clean. The resort is a 2 minute walk to the gorgeous Jan Thiel beach area. You get a free entry pass from staying at this resort, anyway entry fee is only like 3USD without the pass. You will need a rental car to get to this resort from the airport, or you will have to take a taxi which will likely be upwards of 40USD one way as the ride takes 20 to 30 minutes from the airport. This resort is about a 15 to 20 minute drive from the centre of Willemstad, but the proximity to Jan Thiel beach is worth it because there arent any beaches like that in town. Also good to stay near Jan Thiel beach if you are thinking to go to Klien Curacao island because many of the catamarans to that island leave rom Jan Thiel beach

Property was amazing. I couldnā€™t imagine staying anywhere else. It was beautiful, within walking distance of the beach and restaurants. Staff was friendly. 10/10. There was urine on our toilet when we arrived but they quickly cleaned it. Everything else was spotless. Good at the hotel wasnā€™t great but there are a tone of restaurants nearby so we didnā€™t mind much. Iā€™d stay here again.

Most of the staff were nice and willing to help if asked. There is no bell boy to bring your luggage to your room. Had to walk up a hill with all of our luggage and coats to our room. Furniture was dated. The deluxe room we reserved was not deluxe a King bed and a sofa with sheets and a fridge. Towels were limited, sheets on our beds were stained but once I told the front desk they changed them no working telephone in the room ants and roaches were in the room and then I found ants in my pocketbook. would not recommend or stay here ever again.

The staff at the front desk was horrible. impolite it seems like he hates her job The access area to the pool is dirty, the bathrooms are horrible. Then you get to your room and forget everything. Very cozy, clean and with all the utensils to spend a pleasant vacation If I had arrived alone at the lobby I would not have stayed at the hotel If the management improves the cleanliness and ensures that the employees are attentive, it can become a 5-star hotel.

The area was very nice. It was close to Jan Thiel Beach where you can find many dining options, and far enough you won't hear the partying of drunk kids. There's a convenience store Van De Tweel nearby. The frontdesk people were great, they work hard (they need a raise) but I never received the expedia VIP access but the apartment I stayed was great although I have to wait for there check in time at 4pm, 4 hours of waiting coz they don't do early check-ins. Rooms are newly renovated and the housekeeping was thoughtful, they brought me a hanging rack after seeing me drying my suits on the table. I had a problem asking for hot water at the cafe, it took the girl 10 mins before recognizing me while she was messing up the lattes so many times, clearly she needs some training and maybe a nicer attitude. And the Jan Thiel Dive Shop is located outside the property and that's a plus. I'd stay here again.

The only thing I like about this hotel is that it's close to the beach. The hotel room I stayed in was outdated. We were supposedly VIP access (paid for) but no VIP service was given. They give you a free bottle of water in the room when you check in however never replenish. There are no phones in the room so if you need the front desk you have to walk to it...they give you a whatsapp number to call or write but they never respond and leave you on read. Parking is terrible so you have to drive around the property to look for parking. Lastly there is no concierge service so you have to lug your luggage around yourself up the hill looking for your room. I saw an older couple walking around trying to find their room and were lost. I felt bad as they were older and the gentleman had a leg issue because I saw he was limping...they clearly needed help. So I offered to help them find their room. This hotel is old and lacks service I would never recommend or stay here again.
