10/10 Excellent
"This home is absolutely stunning. From the moment you enter the villa, you are in awe of everything the home has to offer. A property manager greets you upon arrival with the option to have started groceries stocked in the fridge. The double garage doors allow for an indoor/outdoor experience that we absolutely loved! We spent much of our time outside and by the pool. The house was very clean and the staff were very responsive whenever we had questions or needed anything! The house is situated in a very affluent neighborhood and we felt very safe our entire stay. The common areas are not air conditioned but each bedroom has a unit that allows you to cool the room down at night. There is an allowed amount of utilities that can be used everyday before an extra charge is included. We had 7 guests that all used AC each night and we were not charged an extra fee! Each window opens up throughout the house to let the natural breeze flow through so we were never uncomfortable. The house is a quick 10-15 walk to a grocery store, beach bar and much more. Curaçao was amazing but this home was the real star of the show. I would absolutely recommend staying here and would love to return if I ever have the chance!"
