Like the rainbow-hued houses in Curaçao's UNESCO World Heritage site capital, Baoase Luxury Resort embraces color in its five-star villas and rooms. Rich wood and jewel-toned accents make the transition from the king-sized bedroom to an airy patio surrounded by lush botanical gardens, creating a sense of peaceful continuity.

We visited Baoase for a 50th birthday getaway and were super impressed! The attention to detail at the ultra private oasis was unbelievable. The resort is absolutely beautiful and the kindness of the staff was a perfect ten. Above all- the food was the shining star! Many resorts can do customer service, sunsets and beaches well but the cuisine at Baoase was a culinary adventure. Michelin Star level! I am still dreaming about the hamachi ceviche appetizer and the truffle ravioli with cauliflower, spinach and beurre blanc. Incredible! Be sure to plan your stay to include a Saturday night when they serve the Fruits de Mere menu complete with a fantastic vocalist for the perfect gourmet dinner on the beach. The water was warm and refreshing and the beach butlers were surprising us with ice cold popsicles and coconut custard in the morning and chilled shrimp or teriyaki beef bites in the afternoon. We brought our 15 year old daughter with us who may have been bored at a boutique resort this small until we stumbled upon the most beautiful oceanside turf field right next to the resort. Look for Chops- a Curacao ALL STAR who opened the field for her to practice lacrosse and showed us such kindness. Most villas feature a large outdoor kitchen and living area with the inside space representing a traditional Dutch style minimalistic design. If I had one complaint, I do not love a spiral staircase and was happy to have the room downstairs. If you are only traveling with your partner, check out the beachfront pool suites. If you are looking for a spa retreat, this resort only offers a massage hut on the beach. The massage was lovely but an expansion of the gym to include more spa services would be a plus. I am not typically someone who returns to a resort twice but in this case, it's the food and the hospitality that will bring me back to Baoase! Special shout out to Jorn who runs the resort with style and personality, Melvin who should be the leading man in movie version of the resort, Luuk, Maartje, Amily, Mikky, Mickey, Shante, Frederique, Isis, and every member of the culinary team - you made this trip so special!

This was the best resort we've stayed at in the Caribbean thus far. From the moment we arrived to when we (sadly) departed, we received five star-level service. We stayed in the Colonial room, one of the smaller rooms on the property, but it was perfect for what we needed and beautifully crafted. You have to plan at least one day beach-side, where you get top-notch butler service. The cocktails are exquisite, but the culinary kitchen - it's on another level compared to other resorts. We also liked that the property overall was intimate, making it feel like your own private getaway. We can't wait to go back!

Our weekend stay cation at Baoase Luxury Resort in Curaçao was an exotic escape that left us with lasting memories! From the lush, tropical setting to the thoughtful service, every moment was a delight. The private pool was the absolute highlight for my daughters and their friends – they spent hours enjoying it, making the experience even more special. The privacy and luxury of having our own pool made the stay feel truly unique and exclusive. The resort's beach, with its pristine lagoon, and the culinary experiences also made a strong impression. Every meal was a culinary delight, beautifully presented and bursting with flavor. The attentive staff made sure we were comfortable and pampered, adding that extra touch to our time there. Baoase provided the perfect blend of luxury and natural beauty, creating a serene paradise right here on Curaçao. It’s the ideal spot for family memories and quality time, and we're already looking forward to our next stay. Highly recommend this hidden gem for an unforgettable stay cation!

We recently stayed at Baoase for our honeymoon, and this place exceeded our already high expectations based on the reviews and pictures. We knew we were getting luxury, but the atmosphere they’ve managed to create at Baoase is indescribable. Everything is so meticulously thought out and you feel like you’re in another magical world. The Staff & Service The staff is so friendly and accommodating, and there is always someone there to help at a moments notice, whether it be a drink refill or maintenance issue. There are buttons at each beach canopy that you can press for the beach butlers to bring you whatever you’d like to drink/eat. You can message the Baoase team on whatsapp for anything you need - a reservation, taxi, more towels, etc - and they’re always so quick and happy to respond! The servers at the restaurant are so incredible - kind, quick, and accommodating! They worked so seamlessly behind the scenes, but I know there must be an incredible amount of effort put in to create this experience for guests. The Food The food is just as others have described it - Michelin star experience and so much more than just food. We loved every single meal and tried so many new and inventive dishes. I was worried that since it’s fine dining, we wouldn’t be full because of the smaller portion sizes, but this couldn’t be further from the truth. Every meal comes with multiple amuses before your starter and meal, and we were comfortably stuffed the entire trip. Throughout the day on the beach, butlers come around with small bites to eat which was such a fun touch. We also did all of the themed dinner nights which blew us away - Indian, Fruits de mer, Italian, barbecue, and Asian nights. The usual dinner menu was incredible but it was so fun to mix it up. Lastly, we did the all inclusive meal plan and this was easily worth the cost. There are a few items on the menu that are upcharges with the meal plan, but that was never a problem for us and we would’ve spent so much more money if we hadn’t done the all inclusive. Also, when you think of all inclusive, you normally think watered down/sugary drinks and average food. This could not be further from the reality at Baoase. High end, quality, and all inclusive? What more could you ask for. The Accomodations We stayed in a garden view honeymoon suite. The rooms are so well thought out and equipped with everything you could ever need, and house keeping is so meticulous. We weren’t expecting all of the incredible technology in the rooms - from the automatic curtains, hidden TV at the foot of the bed, the high end closet and soft close doors, iPad with a sound system throughout the room, motion activated lighting, the list goes on. The rooms are also kept perfectly chilly, which was perfect after a full day in the Curacao heat. The Beach If you’re looking for a long walkable beach with a large wake, this is not the vibe. But what it is, in my opinion, is so much better. The cove is like an ocean pool. You still get the sound of small waves, but the water is calm and clear, and you can float all day without being worried about floating out to sea. We never had to struggle to find a beach chair, and there are so many scenic and beautiful spots to pick. They provide snorkeling gear and floats, and we truly never wanted to do anything but hangout here. The Extra Experiences We took advantage of the spa twice for massages and they were so incredible. 10/10. We didn’t end up doing any extra excursions as originally planned, but honestly I think it’s because we loved being at the resort so much. I have no doubt if we did request them, the Baoase team would’ve coordinated them flawlessly. A Few Tips There are lots of sneaky mosquitos so be prepared for that! They do offer some spray, but we ran out quickly. Not a deal breaker in any sense, but just a heads up for future travelers! Lastly - if you decide on the all inclusive meal plan, I’d say skip on the romance enhancement with the private dinner. While it was stunning, the usual service is just as great and we didn’t feel we needed it. The Verdict An incredible, intimate, romantic, luxurious, and delicious paradise that really felt like the pinnacle of relaxation. We’ve already begun planning for a second trip here and we haven’t even left Curacao yet! Could not recommend any more, and will probably be telling everyone we know about this place for years to come. Thank you to everyone at Baoase for making it a magical honeymoon!

It starts with the booking process, which is very quick and easy. And then; exquisite food, very friendly service, amazing location, so all in all not only for dinner but we now know, for lunch as well a definite “we will be back”. Thank you, team Baoase!
