Top Tugboat Beach Hotel Reviews

Papagayo Beach Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"We had a great experience staying here! The property was nice, and the staff were friendly and welcoming. Everything was easy and convenient, which made our stay even better. We really appreciated the hospitality and would recommend this place to other travelers. We would definitely consider staying here again!"

Sonesta Hotels & Resorts Livingstone Curacao

10/10 Excellent

"Breakfast was very good and the rooms were clean. The area was very good and safe. The bed was a bit soft and restaurant service was a bit rude, but food was very good"

2 Bedroom Beachfront Condo in Jan Thiel. Great location for snorkeling/diving.

10/10 Excellent

"My wife and I stayed 7 nights. We resided in the master bedroom while leaving the guest room unused. The owner left beach chairs, a beach blanket and beach towels, which was a lifesaver for us. Air conditioning goes to freezing. Paper towels, laundry, and dishwasher soap supplied. We didn't need to purchase anything other than our own groceries and shower soap. My wife and I considered the accommodations wonderful.The condo is on the 1st floor overlooking the bay. The pool, parking and the private beach are within 50 yards max. of the front door. There are a many great restaurants within walking distance. Our favorites were the Bristo Do Mar which has a great breakfast and music starting in the evening, while the Villa Vis Jan Thiel had wonderfully fresh seafood. The beach could use some minor maintenance, however there was hardly anyone on it while we were there- Many critters to see on its reef while snorkeling.One minor negative event on night 2 of our stay: A huge drilling platform was pulled into the edge of the bay. My wife and I awoke up to see a city block size structure, which was lit like a Christmas tree at night (she loved it). We disagreed on whether to make this part of the review, because clearly this was no fault of the lessor. I mention this merely to give notice for potential inquiry at the time of booking, and no pictures were posted on the site of past similar past events.- We highly Recommend; There is so much more to say, but no space."

Palapa Beach Resort

10/10 Excellent

"Una excelente propiedad en relación precio calidad, muy buena ubicación y la atención de Raquel fue súper amable. Sin duda lo recomendaría."

Beautiful Sea View, near shops, restaurants, and a short walk to Jan Thiel Beach

8/10 Good

"Mooi appartement met een uitstekende ligging. Indeling van het verblijf is goed. Fijne bedden."

PRACHING The Luxury 8 person Villa Vista Lena in the neighborhood of Jan Thiel. See !

10/10 Excellent

"Wir waren mit sechs Personen in der Villa und haben alle vier Schlafzimmer genutzt. Unser Gesamteindruck war hervorragend – für uns eine klare 10/10.Die Villa liegt sehr ruhig im Villenviertel von Jan Thiel. Strand, Restaurants und Supermarkt sind fußläufig erreichbar, ein Mietwagen ist für Jan Thiel nicht zwingend nötig, für Ausflüge auf Curaçao aber sinnvoll. Die Unterkunft entsprach den Bildern, war sehr sauber, modern und gepflegt. Betten, Bäder und Klimaanlagen waren top.Der Kunstrasen rund um den Pool wirkte zunächst ungewohnt, erwies sich aber als praktisch, angenehm und rutschfest. Die Küche ist gut ausgestattet, lediglich eine klassische Kaffeemaschine hat uns gefehlt, da Nespresso für sechs Personen schnell teuer wird.Die Kommunikation mit Vermieter und Verwalter war jederzeit freundlich, schnell und zuverlässig.Zwei Punkte sollten in der Anzeige transparenter sein: Zum einen wirken die Beschreibungen teilweise so, als gäbe es in allen Schlafzimmern Fernseher – das ist nicht der Fall. Zum anderen wurde das Stromkontingent erst bei Ankunft erklärt. Grundsätzlich nachvollziehbar, aber aus unserer Sicht sollte dies vor der Buchung klar kommuniziert werden, da das inkludierte Kontingent eher knapp ist.Insgesamt stimmt das Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis absolut. Wir haben uns sehr wohlgefühlt und würden die Villa uneingeschränkt weiterempfehlen. Mit etwas mehr Transparenz wäre der Aufenthalt perfekt gewesen."

Vista Royal Jan Thiel. Private pool! Ocean views from amazing rooftop terrace!

10/10 Excellent

"Mandy was excellent! Any questions I had, she responded right away via Whats app to help me with an answer. The Villa was exactly as advertised with stunning ocean views from the rooftop. Bedrooms are very comfortable for all to rest before the next adventurous day in beautiful Curacao! Highly recommend Villa Laman!!"

Your Private Waterfront Paradise!

10/10 Excellent

"Located on a quiet cove, it’s a perfect space to relax. Well stocked kitchen and 2 baths and a shower to rinse your gear. Lovely place to spend the day lounging. Host is super responsive and helpful. Property is not located within walking distance of restaurants or shopping but was perfect for us. We would definitely stay here again."

Luxury design villa with private pool & gym within walking distance to Jan Thiel Beach!

10/10 Excellent

"Everything was a 10/10! The rooms, the ambiance, the pool, I loved it here and didn’t want to leave. It was near everything and in the perfect location. "
