This is a great place if you want to have a relaxing vacation far from the crowds in a comfort of a modern home, with a picture-perfect view of an emerald lagoon, a light breeze in the evenings, and mesmerizing sunsets. There is no beach at the resort, only two stairs to the water from which you are to swim. Youāll swim in pristine, warm, calm waters, just yourselves and the fish. Although the resort was full at this time of the year (around Christmas), it was still very relaxing and not overcrowded at all. The atmosphere was very homey, with nice, friendly people around. It was our second stay in this resort, in the same unit. Last year, we liked it so much that we decided to come again even for longer. During our two visits to the island we went to a lot of beaches and came to the conclusion that the two closest to the resort ā Kleine Knip and Piscado Beach (both about a 5-minute drive) are the best for snorkeling and swimming with the turtles. On Piscado Beach, we often bought fish from fishermen and had a feast at home. The two national parks are also on this end of the island which is handy because itās better to visit them as early in the day as possible. Our favorite restaurants were also local ā Sol Food (opened only on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday) and Playa Forti. The latter is famous for jumping from the cliff (for the brave in heart). The apartment itself was in a very good condition, with new appliances, two full bathrooms, hot water, a/c, ceiling fans, TV and WiFi. Everything worked well. Snorkeling masks, water noodles, beach towels were provided. The ācivilizationā ā the city, Willemstad (a UNESCO heritage site), world class resorts, shops, supermarkets are 45+ minutes away. Youāll definitely need a car.
