    friendly staff
    clean beach
    noisy air conditioning
    limited views
    run down furniture

    A week-long stay in a Junior Suite with Sea View offered a mixed experience. While the beach area was clean and the staff were friendly, the air conditioning was loud and disruptive at night. The furniture was pleasant, but not all rooms had the advertised views, as mine had limited visibility due to landscaping. Dining options nearby were convenient, and the vibrant fish snorkeling made for a wonderful afternoon. Overall, it's comfortable but might not meet luxury expectations.

    The facts without the fluff

    This resort impresses with its spacious one-bedroom suites, complete with kitchen amenities. Enjoy relaxing by the calm beach, just steps away from lively Mambo Beach. The staff were friendly and accommodating. The views are stunning, especially during sunset. A solid location for families wanting both tranquility and access to vibrant nightlife.

    relaxed atmosphere
    kind staff
    great snorkeling
    limited breakfast options

    We had such a fantastic time at this resort! The atmosphere was relaxed, perfect for our large family, including our grandchildren. We loved the proximity to the Sea Aquarium, where we snorkeled with colorful reef fish. The staff were always kind, and we felt very safe with their watchful presence.

    My kids wished the breakfast options were more generous.

    fantastic location
    helpful staff
    outdated furniture
    unattentive service

    The location is fantastic, with lovely beach access and helpful staff making the stay memorable. While the rooms were spacious and well-equipped, some furniture felt outdated and customer service could be more attentive. Overall, a great place for a family vacation, despite minor service hiccups.

    stunning sunsets
    outdoor pool
    beach access
    building renovations

    We stayed in a Junior Suite with Sea View and absolutely loved the stunning sunsets. The outdoor pool was perfect for relaxing, and we enjoyed the beach access for some fun in the sun. The only downside was the occasional noise from the building renovations, but it didn't spoil our time at all! 😊

    great value

    Just a great fit for short visits in Willemstad with good value for cost. Loved having a full kitchen in the suite to make meals. Prepare for possible room changes during your stay.

    poor access

    Despite the appealing location, the presence of excavators nearby detracts from the view and atmosphere. The beach access is tricky, featuring a steep incline with sharp stones, which doesn’t make for an easy swim. The facility is in urgent need of modernization, as internet service in the rooms is weak and the TV reception uninspiring. Be prepared for limited dining options at breakfast, and if you’re expecting a gym, you’ll have to pay extra for access elsewhere. The organization is questionable. A missed shuttle made for a frustrating start to our day.

    private beach
    great staff

    Perfect for Family with children

    The small private beach was fantastic, we never had to fight for a sunbed! And the staff, man, they were so helpful, even brought us snacks while we watched the sunset, just such a nice touch.

    It wasn’t exactly cheap, but it was manageable.
