We loved our accommodations and the cleaning staff. There was always a lounge available at the pool at anytime during the day. The beach is a short distance by car and a 10-15 minute walk and the Centrum grocery store is about 5 minutes by car and has a good supply of any needs. A great place to stay.

Understand what you are booking

This is a super clean, ultra modern , well appointed apartment with stunning views and a lovely pool. It is not a full service hotel. You will need a car. It is 2 miles to the nearest supermarket. The beach and nearest restaurants are 1/2 to 3/4 miles away with some steep hills. We recommend using Coral&Coco to arrange car rental and tours in advance.

My review is for a ground floor 2 bedroom, 2 bath unit. We arrived and easily found the check in area at the airport - no problem except that they gave us absolutely no information about where the unit was actually located. They suggested we use our gps which we did and found the main gate, but we were unable to locate section T as there was no signs indicating it’s location. After asking several people we found out it was behind another building, down a dirt road - even then we thought it just couldn’t be there but we finally found it. Also, we asked at the airport if we would pass a supermarket - they said we would, but of course we didn’t! Btw - no map was available of the road from the airport or the blue bay area. Now to the unit - white, white, white - nothing but white - no picture on the wall - nothing. Master bathroom has NO DOOR! Is this a joke?? No towel bars, no hooks, no full length mirror. The bedrooms are TINY - queen beds with no dressers - only built in closets. Master bed mattress was so soft - it needs to be changed. Nothing charming about them at all. Btw - you need adapters - none were provided - we had to go buy them. Kitchen was fine - white everything. Outside area very nice but couldn’t use it due to the flies and mosquitoes _. We purchased mosquito coils and citronella. Pool area nice - lounges but no tables provided. Blue bay beach was really nice - white sand, nice restaurants and bars.

Loved the location and apartment, however, a few things are desired for the apartment, such as a curtain to cover the large glass doors so everyone can’t see in at all hours. They didn’t come to clean at all, just brought us clean towels. Also, if you are a light sleeper, the clinging of the sun shades outside may wake you frequently. Nonetheless, I would stay at The Reef again. The pool was beautiful and the area was nice and quiet. The apartment was nicely decorated in a cheek, modern design.

It was quiet during the nigits but the ongoing construction work close by the pool area was really disturbing at day time. We avoided being in the appartment and the facility daytime, except for Saturday and Sunday when they paused the construction. Nothing was mentioned about this in the booking information. Besides that everything was great!

Unit was in a quiet area and beat the pool. Loved hearing the waterfall. The kitchen was stacked with all the essentials. Beach towels, drying rack, dishwasher fluid, washing machine pods. It was great. Tip: place hand soap in the powder room and kitchen. Also dishwasher liquid for small items instead of only dishwasher to conserve energy.

We fell in love with Blue Bay and will definitely be back . The apartment was beautifully decorated, was specious and super clean , patio was to die for with two steps from the pool. We did not use housekeeping but it was an option if staying for more than 5 days. Beds were comfortable , everyone was friendly , grocery store centrum few minutes away , blue bay beach was spectacular. The property management @coralandcoco was outstanding especially Mart, who saved us on the arrival. We had everything we needed accept blankets ( only flat sheet provided) I understand power is very expansive and they probably don’t want you to blast ac and cover yourself with heavy blanket but I wish sheet was not the only option There is construction next door to the Reef but it did not bother us at all . We live the modern design the beautiful properties being build around and hit some ideas for our own home . Thumbs up to architects! Thank you for very memorable stay.

Property was clean, pool was great and area was safe. Staff were friendly at security. The food wasnt the best on the beach. The apartment was lovely and had a majority of things you needed. There was construction but honestly I could have cared less of the noise, it wasnt irritating and you cant hear it when your inside. I have no complaints, but i do have 2 suggestions! Women need a full size mirror and a comforter would have been great, but i managed with a the sheet and 2 stack couch blankets. Overall, i would come back again!

The Blue Bay resort as a whole is excellent (its a retreat from the hustle and bustle; despite the construction, it was still relatively quiet). The Reef, my issues were 1) The open floor open in master bedroom. The master bed and bathroom are approx 15 feet apart without a door (no privacy and unwelcomed visual and sound effects); 2) The apartment was a suana on artival. I understand the electricity is high in Curacao but the owner (or property manager) should see to it the apartment is comfortable.; 3) Only one TV in the apartment and there weren't local nor cable channels; 4) Being that they are advertising in the US market, it should be clear on major differences (especially 220v vs 110v outlets); 5) I wondered if the apartment had a proper walk-through. I had to report some things that i wasn't told about so i wouldn't be billed for damages.
