Curacao Marriott Beach Resort

So after being stranded by Westjet. We found this hotel! It’s expensive but the front desk was very accommodating! Jacob is the one to talk to! Nice pool and good breakfast too! They can hold your luggage if you have a late flight. Definitely will approach this hotel if needed again.

The company I work for chose this location for our annual destination trip, and we fell in love with the resort as soon as we arrived. We ate and drank at every restaurant while here, as well as interacted with just about all levels of staff throughout our stay. Everyone was consistently pleasant especially those in guest-facing roles. Beach/Poolside-Nicole and the staff at the bar near the dive shack on the evening of Feb 16 were AMAZING!! Our company brought around ~300 people on this trip so service was slow at times, but the staff made up for it with their kindness and patience with such a large group. No issues with towels for us as has been noted by others. The beach offered ample seating options with incredible views. If you have sensitive feet, I would recommend water shoes for snorkeling and/or entering the ocean (it's only about a couple of feet you have to walk through with small to medium sized rocks. One of my favorite aspects was The Serenity Pool which is an infinity with submerged ledge seating. Rooms-very clean overall. We were facing the Serenity Pool/beach from behind the cabanas and experienced little to no noise disruptions. I do see how guests near the main reception area and facing the larger pool would experience some inconveniences with noise. Pillows definitely need an upgrade, or at least firmer options, but that isn't going to negatively impact my review. Restaurants-we ate at every restaurant and received consistently friendly and attentive service throughout our stay. The sushi was delicious and room service was timely if you planned your order in advance vice last minute.

From the minute we arrived to the minute we left everything was phenomenal. Easy check-in and check-out process. We forgot electric outlet adapters and the bellman promptly delivered two to us free of charge. Room was spacious, modern and clean. Bug screen smart TV, safe and refrigerator in the room. Filtered water stations throughout resort to fill up the complimentary water bottle given at check in. We rented a car since it was our first time on the island but when we return (yes we will definitely be back!) we don’t see a need to. Restaurants have a variety of choices and beach is magnificent. Pool activities were fun and fitness center open 24 hours. There is an adult pool in addition to the main pool. I truly enjoyed my stay.

Really nice hotel with of a really beautiful Beach- which is for sure one of the best Hotels on the Island. Super friendly staff but Service could be better and quicker. Really liked the Food at the small coffee shop - skip the breakfast buffet and go there if you don’t have the breakfast included.

This resort exceeded my expectations. Before arrival at this beautiful resort, I receved an email from Graceny Webster - Rooms Controller, that I had been upgraded to an Ocean Front room because of my Marriott membership! There were so many things I liked about this resort, however there were a couple of small things that could easily be adjusted by management to make it stellar. Pros: At checkin, free champagne was served in the lobby. There was a bit of a wait but it had a party vibe. The lobby also had really cool swing chairs that I swung in more than once. Ocean front rooms have an unbeatable view. Hearing the soft Caribbean waves crashing at night was an amazing experience. The room was also well equiped. We were there during Superbowl and were able to watch the full game on the TV in the room. The bed was comfortable and the storage was ample. All food served at this resort was very tasty. We especially liked the Papiamentu Marketplace for breakfast as we like to eat a small breafast. The men working in the arrival area were excellent. They parked our car and got our car. We always gave them a good tip for this service. The beach was very pleasant to swim in. I did not go snorkeling at this beach as we had a rental car so went to other snorkeling areas on the island such as Tugboat and Grote Knip. The resort's location is excellent. You have access to all parts of the island as you're pretty much in the middle of the island. Cons: There was a green flashing light in the room which can be seen from the bed at night. It appeared to be a motion sensor. This was disruptive and should be removed or majorly toned down. The hardware used on the handles for the heavy door into the bathroom and opening the refridgerator had a sharp edge and was uncomfortable to open and close these doors. This could easily be swapped out. When ordering room service, we forgot to order drinks. It appeared to be impossible to add to your order once placed online. We had to place a drink order over the phone which arrived 45 minutes after we ate. I did not accept the drink as we'd already finished eating. I'm sure this glitch in the ordering software could easily be fixed. The cons are quite minor compared to our overall experience at this resort. We enjoyed our stay thoroughly and as I mentioned, the Marriott Curacao EXCEEDED my expectations. Thanks for the great stay!
