The Royal Sea Aquarium Resort

Our family of 4, with 2 college kids thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Royal Sea Aquarium Resort! The staff could not have been more helpful and so nice! The front desk staff were very attentive. There is plenty to do here. We did the Tugboat snorkel trip with Irie tours, which was great! We also took advantage of the other daily activities arranged by the resort, and enjoyed those as well. The pool was very peaceful with plenty of longes and covered places to sit. The bartenders were friendly and the drinks were yummy. The beach also had plenty of places to lounge. My daughter snorkeled from the beach and saw lots of fish and squid. You are also in the perfect location to walk to Mambo Beach, with lots of places to shop and eat. The restaurant at the resort had the kindest staff as well! Overall, I think this may be my favorite resort we’ve ever stayed at. I highly recommend staying here and if we get the chance to return to Curaçao we will definitely stay here again!

Love this place! The workers welcome you with a big smile and truly take pride in their work. When I travel alone, I feel extremely safe here too. The rooms are clean and recently remodeled. The location of this hotel is as if you're on your own island. They have kayaks, noodles near the beach. They have free shuttles to town and the supermarket. If you get a suite, you get a full kitchen with oven, dishwasher, full size refrigerator, toaster, blender, pots, pans, dishes,... the balcony is large with tables, chairs and 2 lounge seats. The lobby has snacks and drinks for purchase, they have movie night, tie dying, domino's, bbq,... you can also rent a grill for your family. Its so quiet. Love how you can also walk to mambo beach for music and different restaurants. But I enjoy the one restaurant at the hotel. It has the best prices around and a huge variety of fresh food.

We were not quite sure what to expect from a timeshare stay, so if you too are considering a stay here, then I’ll share the scoop with you: Taxis from airport are easy, and takes 40 minutes and will cost you $45. On arrival walk up the steps to check in and they do a great job explaining everything. Take advantage of the free shuttle to the local supermarket as taxis are expensive (as a Brit living in the USA, I found everything in Curacao overly expensive). The rooms are aged but if you get a suite they are large with comfortable furniture and full kitchen - the ceilings are low and lighting is dark which makes it feel old fashioned. The ac works great, patios overlooking the sea are large, and the two pools and HOT tub are great. There is a bar at the pool that you can charge to your room and a bbq grill you can use. The beach is small but adequate and the separate restaurant is right there if you want drinks. We swam over to mango beach several times! If you drive then the scuba place is literally 5 min walk away, as is the Aquirium which you must pay to enter (only timeshare “members” get free tickets). We found the staff to be great and it was a refreshing change to stay here instead of a traditional hotel. The movie and popcorn at the pool one night was lovely!!

The place has everything you need. A beautiful beach, nice accimodations, wonderful food and friendly stuff. The building is not that modern but is in good shape. Directions are dificult to folie even with a GPS. We asi about many times to final y made it.
