Villa Amalie & Villa Curiel

Lovey stay we were there a week the host is very nice very friendly helpful the place is very clean it’s a good way to relax after weeks of adventure ! Restaurants are close and wel the island is beautiful full and this hotel compliments the beauty

What a nice stay in a cute historic boutique style hotel. The follow-up emails and attention to service was very well received. The extra transportation service from the airport to our next airport stay was very appreciated - transportation is challenging in Curaçao. Centrally located, vey walkable to the beach club, restaurants and local central attractions. Your recommendation of restaurant and taking care of the reservation was another great service. Easy access in and out, home feel, capped off with a well enjoyed light breakfast and coffee! Nice little treasure that would recommend to all - thank you!

If you like a bathroom across the hall with cold shower on your vacation, that's the place to stay! That's right. Half the rooms at this property are this way. After I checked in, I was surprised and went online to make sure I didn't miss it in the description. See, mr Paul, the owner, lists the bathroom as "private" as you have the key to it (that's right...) so when you tick the "private bathroom" box on aggregator sites, it comes up. Alright, I thought, I will manage. The walls in the room are dirty, the door is dirty, there is nowhere to put your suitcase. Windows don't have blinds. The bathroom has no AC, so it's very musty and stinks like sewer. I guess it happens when you travel, although it's quite unpleasant. But then I keep reading the reviews and they mention cold water. I reach out to mr Paul who says yes indeed, multiple rooms simply don't have hot water. Including my room. And on a rainy day (like the day of my check in) the water will literally be cold. Wow! He also proceeded to say some guests discover it while taking a shower. I would have been super frustrated. What disregard for comfort of his customers. Customer service has nothing to do with this place. Anyway, for me it's not an option, so I asked about another room with normal shower, and there were none available. I asked for a refund and was told "it's impossible after check in". Now, mr Paul fails to provide accurate info on his website. Had he mentioned there is no hot water, I would have never booked the place and would have never checked in. It's a part of basic amenities that's missing. But wait, I was told, that if hot water is important to me, "I should have asked before booking". I literally hope I won't live to the day when I have to ask the property whether they have normal shower. Maybe I should also ask if there is a bed? I don't like sleeping on the floor. Or maybe there is a door? I like my privacy. This can go really far... To a private toilet in a building across the street. With your own key to use it. My last trip was to Africa and surprise - not a single place I stayed at had this problem. The place also has many rules. You'll get reprimanded for leaving the fan on if leaving the room (for 10 minutes in my case!), once you pay for your accommodations, this tone is unacceptable. The windows have no screens. The breakfast is 8-9 "on workdays". Whoever comes to Curacao to work? Also, this is NOT a place for a business traveler. You have to be there 8:45 the latest to be served exactly the same breakfast every single day (from reading the reviews). Thanks, but no thanks, what an odd "perk". I also traveled solo, and as a woman quite a bit younger than mr Paul found him repeatedly calling me "sweetie" to be inappropriate and downright offensive after he tried to put the blame on me - because I was expecting too much, obviously, a hot shower?? what luxury in year 2023! - and that's not the place to have high hopes about, - and refused to refund the res

My husband and I spent 12 days in beautiful Curacao in July. Our trip all the more memorable due to our stay at Villa Amalie in Wilemstad. From the time our host, Royer, picked us up at the airport until the day, Pohl, drove us back to the airport 12 days laters, days well spent and enjoyed. We stayed in Room#4 which was spacious, and immaculately clean with a well-functioning air-conditioner. Fresh towels and linens every 3 days. Breakfast served on their beautiful patio. Fresh fruit, eggs, ham, cheese, yogurt, lovely brown bread, orange juice and a choice of coffees and teas available from an impressive barista unit. Pohl and Royer professional, engaging, helpful and excellent in-house advisors. Villa Amalie is within walking distance of most city amenities, and they recommended restaurants, beach tours, walks to discover the beautiful artistic wall murals and pastel-coloured architecture. Walking distance to the floating Queen Emma Bridge which joins the Pundo and Otrobanda neighbourhoods. Also a 10 minute walk to their beautiful house pool. Thank you to Pohl, Royer and Ignocia for their welcoming presence. We will definitely recommend Villa Amalie to any of our friends who plan to visit Curacao.
