Unique property, good overall location on the island. Has his own beach, upscale restaurant, in a very nice poor patio overlooking the ocean. Staff was very professional, could’ve been a bit more guidance about where to park but once we figure that out, everything was great.

This property was perfect for our group of 5 families with kids. We all got our own spaces when we needed a break from each other, but the pool and beach ares were ideal for getting to spend time together in between other activities in Curacao

We really liked the area the resort was in. The resort itself was nice and quiet, but getting shopping/restaurants/entertainment was easily walkable. The staff were all very friendly and helpful. The private beach was small, but in a great spot to rest, swim, snorkel or just float. The pool area isn’t huge, but there’s plenty of space to play or relax. The suite we stayed in a fabulous view and was very comfortable for the three of us. We would definitely stay here again.

I liked that this hotel was walking distance to Mambo beach. I liked how quiet and how it had its own private beach. I didn’t like how I was on the first floor traveling as a solo female traveler. I requested for them to change the room which they couldn’t accommodate. So I had to make sure I took extra precautions to feel safe and comfortable but I still enjoyed my stay.

Upon arrival we encountered a receptionist in training so she was not clear on a few things. The room was clean and the AC was top knotch. However, they did not clean the room daily and when we complained. There was no explanation by the experienced receptionist. The shuttle bus fulls up quickly and they did not exaplain that either. When we tried to extend they said it had to be done 24 hours prior when they knew our room missed a cleaning. Not very service oriented or pleasing of the client. Olas and Copas the restaurant on premise was the best part of the hotel. Great food.

We had a wonderful stay at the Aquarium Resort! It was our first vacation as a family. We have a 10 month old and this resort was perfect for us. There was never an issue getting chairs with shade, and other guests mostly followed the rule of not saving chairs all day and not being there. The staff were always cleaning the grounds, maintaining the beautiful gardens, and organizing resort events. The pools were maintained and the beach was cleaned each morning, the swimming and snorkeling was beautiful. We rented a car for 3 days and they arranged this for us. It was super convenient. We explored other beaches, but felt most at home and comfortable at the resort! We had the suite style with kitchen, living room and bedroom. Which was perfect for nap times! The restaurant at the resort (although not technically a part of the resort) had plenty of options (vegetarian, too!) we ate there multiple times. You can even order drinks/food to enjoy on the beach. We wished we stayed longer but hopefully we will be back one day! Thanks to everyone at the resort for making our vacation enjoyable!

We liked the private beach and the room size. We realize this is a timeshare but we are not timeshare owners and the value vs the cost we’d expect more. We asked for an upgrade and was told there were none available but the there were very few suites in use. We literally never saw more than 5-10 guest. It should be made very, very clear that this is a timeshare.

Beautiful and relaxing experience

Beautiful and chill location; excellent staff. It was annoying to have to move rooms the day after we arrived, but staff moved our packed luggage for us (with our permission) while we were out exploring to keep it easy. Loved snorkeling in the water right off the hotel. We felt the pool closed early (at 9 pm), and would have liked to use the hot tub later!
