You pay for what you get. If you are looking for a hotel just to shower, sleep and go then this is your best bet. Other than that do not expect much at all. We stayed for 7 days and it was average, the check in process was poor (waited for 30 mins after a 7 hour flight), the hotel room was flooded at the corner of the bed and the ceiling had moulds. If you are renting a car, then parking is very difficult to get as the entire is area is always filled, do not expect a parking to be designated to you. Based on what we saw in the picture of the room was completely contrary to what we received. I would never stay here again nor would I recommend it to a friend.

If you’re looking for somewhere in the city, this location wouldn’t be best, it’s like 30-40 mins away from the airport & taxi fees are like $50-$60 USD. The hotel is pretty nice and the food is good as well. We did find one roach in our room, but nothing too worry about. The beach is like a 8min walk away. The staff is pretty nice & there are a few things to do around. We liked it!

Single night in a single
If you get a single room upstairs be prepared to lug your luggage up high pitch he’d stairs. Although a nice gentleman on a golf cart offered to take our bags up the stairs. Room had a hair in the sink when we arrived and tiny ants. We informed the front desk. Great location. Good value. On site resorption had really good food at a fair price. Parking was very poor.

The checking process was horrible, when we got there we had to wait 1 hr before getting our rooms ready for us, pillows were uncomfortable, caused pain in my husband’s neck. Maintenance on the property was not great the AC was dirty. No microwave in the villa. Sheets were not enough, they never checked on us to see if we needed anything.

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 couldn’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 wasn’t great but there are a tone of restaurants nearby so we didn’t mind much. I’d stay here again.
