Nothing spectacular

Lobby and pool area undergoing repairs while we were there. Nice enough hotel showing its age a little. Clean, well kept but needs minor things repaired (like missing towel rack in bathroom). Pretty chill vibe, great for relaxing, car is necessary if you want to explore the country.

PARADISE INCURACAO

As a solo older traveler, I spent a week enjoying the hospitality of this family run resort. It is a beautiful resort where the grounds are neat and clean. It has a lovely pool with two Jacuzzi areas.( needs maintenance as the jets weren't working.) It also has a lagoon. The Villa rooms are awesome and spacious, and I stayed in a small room that was adequate, The beds are very comfortable and the down feather pillows are the size of huge clouds. The best. They ask that you do not through paper [... read more] into the toilets. Meaning be conservative with toilet tissue and other paper/tissue products go in the garbage. Bravo for them to be contentious of waste and avoid major maintenance issues. I fully respect this OVERALL. Great stay for a quite slice of heaven away from the normal AI huge resort vibe. Enjoyment of the sunshine warm air and CURACAO hospitality. The Bar area is great for a quick bite and even dinner. There is some entertainment during dinner hours and at 8.00pm there is a 10 minute light show to music which also changes. Was very pretty to watch, underneath the swaying palm trees. During my stay it was not crowded and ample beach chairs and bali beds around the pool. And there was no loud music and everybody was respectful of the environment. This is a great family oriented quite hotel.( I'm sure it gets busy later in the season. The Bar staff very youthful and attentive. I must say I also liked that all food and drinks were served on porcelain and glass which is great for reducing garbage and it is classy. Reception desk was always helpful and friendly. Housekeeping was fine but sometimes missing attention to detail. E.i A neighbor villa left dishes on their terrace and was not cleaned for 2 days. The location is great as your 5kms from Willemstad and yes I did walk there and back, once. Your 5 minutes from the Ocean. The shuttle bus will take you into town, beach and supermarket. The small fridge I had was great. The air conditioner was cold. This budget hotel is great if you want a place that is clean, efficient and central. It caters to those that use it as a starting point for exploring the island, they do have ample parking for cars. It's great for long term stays at it has full kitchen villas It has a good meal plan with various options which I opted out. Yes I would recommend this hotel but you are a specific traveler as stated above.

Great Resort

This hotel is perfect if you plan to tour the Island. The food is very good at the Acoya. The staff were all very friendly. I booked the rental car at the hotel, Sunil was great to deal with, very easy and convenient booking at the hotel. This my third trip booked through Trip Central. Beth was great, she knew the Island and what we were looking for. Great recommendation!

Dushi Massage

My husband and I stayed here for 7 days. Drivers are excellent workers. We went to buy our groceries and to the beach. Housekeeping and receptionist are kind and professional staff. Also Oh????? massage is Impressive! I love it. Thank you very much. We had a great time. Happy vaycay? cheers

Good Resort

This hotel is a good bargain for the price, the room was nicely setup. The hotel staff was pleasant and helpful. The pool was clean and good for a dip or to hang out by. Cant speak much to the food as we only ate one meal here. Our one meal was good. We used this hotel as a 'homebase' for our vacation. We rented a car and went out every day. The location works well for this, only a few minutes away from Willemstad and some beaches. I would recommend this hotel and Curacao is just an am [... read more]azing island in general!

Comfortable stay

Acoya Hotel and Villas is nice. Since every person has a different opinion on what's nice let's break this down. Renting a car is a must. At least for a few days. We didn't mind taking the bus until we got our car. The grounds are not on the ocean. So, if you want to hear and see the beautiful waters of Curacao this place is not for you. BUT...you can walk there. Keep in mind its hot and its approximately a 20-to-30-minute walk to Mambo Beach and the Sea aquarium. Worked for us. Could use slig [... read more]ht updates but nothing serious. Standard room is quite small and no patio or terrace. Deluxe room was perfect for us and what we paid!!! Bed was perfect!! Everything is VERY well cared for and clean. Front desk staff is excellent.!!! Every employee on site is very nice. Pool area is also gorgeous and well cared for. Restaurants are nice but pricey. Every night they have this fun waterfall show and there was various enjoyable entertainment during the week. It is a bit of a strange set up in terms of where your deluxe room is. Basically, it is a room within a villa. Doors to other rooms are locked off. the only thing we felt was a little weird was having to walk past someone else's terrace to get to ours. No biggie everyone is nice. Note...we only had "neighbors" for a night and then no one else was in the villa so I can't comment on noise etc. This property is very central and easy to navigate around the island from here. The entrance is gated and very safe. We are very chill people and enjoyed our stay there. Hope this helps!!

Great Resort!

The resort was great for our trip. We rented a car to explore the island so mainly came back to the resort during the evening. The room was clean, comfy bed, nice sitting area outside. The shuttle to the beach, groceries, and downtown was convenient. Definitely book a massage at the spa, it is well worth it. The grounds were clean and well kept.

Extremely Happy!

One of the best hotels we have stayed at! All staff were impeccably well dressed, multilingual, helpful and friendly! Location was very good well within walking distance to the town or the famous beach. Actually the entire islands ambiance was striking, with locals waving and greeting the busses as we passed by. I highly recommend both Curaçao and this hotel without any reservation. There was even free courtesy shuttles to the grocery stores, downtown and the beach so yes extremely happy with e [... read more]verything and fantastic food too! I will definitely go back!

Nice resort, amazing staff!

We really enjoyed our stay at Acoya. Colin at the front desk went out of his way to ensure we were happy with our room. The air conditioner wasn't working and it was repaired right away along with the leak under the bathroom sink.Islainy, Quincy and Hatasha always helpful and very friendly.

Thank you Acoya Resort and Spa!

Very good resort

Very good resort in general. Only negative things are: No place to put our luggage and no closet in bedroom. We had our luggage on the living room coffee table all week. Always had to ask for face clothes, phone didn’t work. Other than that, really good.

Relaxing Retreat

The Acoya is a well maintained property that's boasts a wonderful common area with tons to do. The dining experience is a bit on the salty and fried side and could use a bit more variation and seafood offerings.

Clean and quiet resort

We stayed at the Acoya in June 2019. The hotel had a nice open lobby connecting to the pool/dining area with rooms surrounding it. We had a family room which was made up of 2 separate bedrooms joined by a washrooms in the middle. Having the 2 rooms was nice for our family of 4 but these rooms do not open into the pool area. If we had an opted for the apartment, there was a door in our family room that would have opened up to a living/kitchen area and master bedroom that all had a pool view.  [... read more] This would have been a good option and we would consider for future visits. Rooms were clean and comfortable but lacking a balcony for drying swimsuits. Front desk staff were helpful. They provided us the needed adapters for our devices, helped us make restaurant reservations, and toured us around the facility so that we could see what else we could book next time. We mainly used the hotel as home base as we went out to westpunt most days in the morning, return later in the afternoon to clean up and then go out to dinner in Punda. The hotel was far enough away from the beach/downtown that it was not walk-able (nor advisable as the some of the areas were not that nice). We hoped that shuttle would be sufficient but the timing did not suit our schedule as it meant spending 6 hours either at Mambo beach or downtown. Driving from here was easy though with good access to Punda (7 minute car ride) and parking at hotel is plentiful as well. We ate at the restaurant once and it was good but pricey. There are many great restaurants nearby and we wanted the variety. There was entertainment most evenings which we enjoyed. The hotel had a quiet clientele which we appreciated. The Acoya was not overly staffed – in other countries/resorts we have visited, staff would always be around the pool area in particular, cleaning, tidying, asking if you needed anything. This was not the case here but it was low season so perhaps that is why.

Good value

Acoya is relatively new, still lack of hotel management, all the staff are excellent & very helpful, nice pools. Luckily the hotel provided shuttle service twice a day to down & Mombo beach. There is a lots of room for improvement, they should have morning yoga exercise class & spa service. The hotel location is not too far to town, if you want to swim in the ocean it would be better to Rent a car, there are many nice beaches around the island, and you can also go the town for dinner instead of  [... read more]stay in the hotel. Overall, I enjoyed my vacation During my stay. I would recommend to friend only if they have a rental car or a villa with full kitchen.

An oasis in Curacao

This resort is a wonderful alternative to the busy beach resorts. It offers free transportation to the beach club, grocery supermarket and to downtown Willemsted. The personnel at the resort are very friendly and helpful. After visiting 24 all inclusive resorts, we found this resort a little bit of paradise. If you go, rent the villa instead of the room as the villa provides you with a home away from home

Great vacation!

Resort, grounds, location, and personnel are super. The shuttles to the beach, downtown and grocery store make this a very convenient place with no necessity of renting a car. The local buses are very easy to use.

Great week at Acoya

Spent a nice relaxing week at the Acoya. We had a smaller villa room, but it was really good enough for 2 people. The staff is polite and helpful. The resort is a short ride away from the Mambo beach, A shuttle is there to take guests to the beach/town/supermarket daily.

Beautiful and tranquil resort

The pool and bar area has lush tropical gardens where guests can lounge in comfort. No trouble finding a chair in filtered sun or shade if you are not a sun worshiper. The staff are very friendly and professional. The resort is safe and secure and is well run with clean with daily housekeeping. The grounds are well kept with lots of gardens. Daily shuttles will take guests to beach and Willemstaad. Standard rooms have toaster, kettle and fridge. The only thing I can say negative would be that it [... read more] is not on the beach but the pool area is so amazing so it really doesn't matter!
