Perfect Central Location with Quiet Beach & Pool

Property was perfect for our family. Everything exactly as described. Private little beach and pool were nice and quiet!Really good restaurants in walking distance. Everything was great. Literally the only complaint was not knowing we needed adapters coming from the US and the beds are very firm. (Property manager brought us a few adapter so that wasn’t a problem for the week.)Highly recommend and hope to come again!

A Perfect Curacao Getaway!

This is the perfect place to stay while in Curacao! The facilities are beautiful, clean, and quiet. Perfect for a relaxing vacation! Everyone I dealt with was helpful and friendly throughout our stay and booking process. The location is right on the water with a private beach and pool. The condo has a beautiful kitchen but we hardly used it as we were in walking distance of TONS of amazing restaurants. It is also super close to downtown Willemstad, Mambo beach, the grocery store and gas station for filling up the rental car (which I highly recommend getting to explore the island). We had an amazing week on this BEAUTIFUL island at this wonderful property. We WILL be back!!!

Perfect apartment for family between beach and city

Clean and well situated. Apartment is 10 min walk from nice restaurant and 15 min walk (with sidewalks) to center Willemstad. Beach in front is nice for snorkeling or just swimming. Plenty of beach chairs and umbrellas available. Communication with host is easy (Saskia does a wonderful job). I recommend strongly.

So nice!

The view was spectacular! The property manager was prompt with replies. Very nice people! The condo was very well equipped and comfortable. We used the air conditioner quite often and still did not go over the electrical limit.

Awesome stay

The condo had everything we were looking for. Beautiful view, plenty of space, access to a beach and pool on the property. The location was in a good central location. Sometimes we ventured to beaches in the north which were further, but we also went to the south beaches and golfing. Very clean with a nice kitchen and balcony with a cool breeze. Property management was amazing and made check in and out very easy.

Excellent family vacation home! Highly recommend!

Our family (2 adults+1 child) stayed in this property early October 2022. The condo matches everything on the pictures, it was spotless, spacious, well maintained. Communication was easy and property host Saskia met us in person upon arrival and was responsive throughout our stay if I had questions via text or phone calls. We couldn't have asked for a better location and a better property. Highly recommended. It is conveniently located on a nice street, walking distance to many attractions, tons of great restaurants, shops, yet the street itself is very quiet and feels very safe. We did snorkeling from our beach to Avila Hotel next door, the snorkeling was amazing without getting in the car. Later we discovered many great swimming, snorkeling and dive sites on the island, many within 15 min drive. If I have to make any suggestions, it would have been nice to have shampoo, conditioner, and basic non perishable supplies in the kitchen, therefore an immediate grocery shopping was necessary and solved all the needs. We do have plenty of dishes, glassware, cookware, blender, coffee and tea maker in the kitchen. Plenty of towels and blankets. There was an electricity usage charge, which turned out to be $33.00 extra for the entire duration. It seems reasonable. Again, very happy stay, will definitely stay again. Highly recommend!

Perfect place to stay

We stayed at the Strand for 11 nights. It was the perfect property. Loved having the full kitchen that was so well stocked with everything you need to cook dinners. The private beach and lagoon were also amazing for us and the kids. We started snorkeling in the lagoon and then ventured out to many of the island beaches. Check in and check out were a breeze and the mid stay housekeeping was amazing. We loved our time in Curasao and plan on returning as soon as possible.

Excellent hospitality! Great location and ocean view!

Stranded at Curacao for unforeseen reasons, we were allowed to stay at this amazing condo for some nights. The host made us feel very welcome and we loved every minute of it. The beach is sandy and lagoon great for swimming. Would have loved to stay longer!

Misrepresentation

Whilst the flat was OK, it was not the one we had rented. When booking the flat back in June it was listed under a 6-digit number. When trying to look it up again later (after having made the booking) it did not show up. I contacted the person who had confirmed the order (Jolanda) and got a story about the listing being removed as the owner wanted to focus on long-term leases but that our booking was obviously in order. She then sent me a link for the flat that she said we had rented. When looking through the pictures from that listing it became clear to me that there were many pictures in the listing that was NOT from 'our' flat. This made us uncomfortable as the flat we had booked had a sunset view whereas the one shown in the pictures, had a wall blocking the sunset. I had seen this listing when making the initial booking and had for that specific reason, avoided it. In spite of sending several mails to Jolanda she could not confirm to me which flat we had been allocated. When we arrived it became clear that we had in fact received a different flat than the one we had booked. It also turned out that many of the pictures in the listing was from a different flat altogether! This is completely unacceptable and I pointed this out to Jolanda in several mails. I was told to 'enjoy the holiday' (or in other words: don't bother me - you can do nothing about it anyway!). Is was a very disappointing experience to be treated in such a condescending manner and we are most unlikely to rent from Jolanda in the future.

Fantastic!

This property was perfect for our vacation in Curacao. It is just a short walk into Punda for shopping and eating. Also, several incredible restaurants right down the block. Loved having access to the beach and pool right outside. Truly, could not have asked for a better place to stay!!!!

Perfect location, amazing view, fantastic amenitie

This three bedroom apartment with a view of the ocean was the perfect place for us to spend our Christmas holidays. It’s is a three bedroom, 4 bathroom, fully stocked unit on the third floor. The view is spectacular and the private beach makes it easy to sit back and forget about everything. We enjoyed eating on the patio as well as walking into town (about 15 minutes), and eating at all the great restaurants nearby. The 4 bathrooms and 3 bedrooms (1 king bed, 2 single/twin beds and two single/twin bunk beds (one up one down) make it ideal for staying with a bunch of people. Thanks Jo and Zita for a great experience, smooth check-in and an awesome time.

Exceptional Property on a Diverse Island

The Strand is located next to two other condo/resorts and within walking distance to town. We did have a hiccup upon arrival. We were given the wrong phone number hence showed up at the condo without a way to get in or someone to contact. After about 1.5 hours and contacting VRBO, our escort arrived and everything turned out fine. The condo is spacious and updated with a great balcony. The pool and beach areas are very nice but were getting quite windy when we were there in April/May. A wedding took place at the venue beside us which was fun to watch but went well into the night (2am) with fireworks at 11:30 pm. We went to the bar at the Avila, one condo down and there are a few cute restaurants within a 5 mnute walk. Last note, you will be hearing roosters and dogs barking in the distance every day.

Comfortable condo with a beautiful view

The property was great. Comfortable beds, necessities provided, etc. the beach was nice and our 2 and 5 year olds loved going on crab hunts and looking in all the snail shells, etc. I even saw 2 small eels in the shallow rocks. We were often the only ones on the beach, so we didn’t have to worry about them wandering off. The location is good, not too far from town or the Aquarium in the opposite direction. We were warned not to walk after dark by many people (even to walk two buildings down for dinner), so we did rent a car, which I understand is pretty much a necessity when on the island. The town is nearby, and on the day before we left, we found Mambo Beach, which is less than a 5 minute drive. Great beach with lots of restaurants and shops. Wish we’d found that earlier. We are pretty social people, and like to make conversation with others. We found some of the people of Curacao very friendly and welcoming, but probably about 70% were not, or took some real effort to get them to loosen up. We went to Bonaire after our week here, and were pleasantly surprised with the opposite. There was a lot of poverty on the island, which may explain some of the demeanor. We had a fantastic time diving with Goby Divers, who were absolutely wonderful. The island food, left a lot to be desired for the 3 adults in our party. The best food we had was at a Mexican restaurant at Mambo beach. I did like the property, especially since we could choose to hang out on the private beach, or take a short ride to Mambo beach if we were looking for something more active. Go to one of the larger grocery stores that you can walk around instead of the small ones behind bars where you just tell the attendant what you want and they get it for you. The selection at the larger store is pretty good, but don’t expect all the comforts of home. If there is something you specifically want, pack it before you come. They did have produce, milk, bread, peanut butter, jelly, cereal, diapers, alcohol, etc. much like a grocery store in the US, but maybe a third of the size with less selection, and most of the meat looked weird to me. Definitely enough to get you through the week though. Pack lots of sunscreen, as it is expensive on the island. Thank you to our host at the condo, Goby Divers, and the Dolphin Experience was awesome at the aquarium.
