The hotel was clean the room was amazing dinners had some hiccups but overall food was tasty. The only issue was some of the staff were very laid back and when asking for something it took forever. But I would highly recommend dreams the beach and driving were beautiful. Thank you for overall great experience.

We recently enjoyed a wonderful stay at the resort. My wife and I had a great time from start to finish—the beach was beautifully maintained, with clean sand and stunning blue, crystal‑clear water full of vibrant fish. The entertainment throughout our stay was genuinely good, and the staff were consistently friendly and welcoming. While the food was just OK, everything else more than made up for it. Overall, we had a great time and left with fantastic memories.

5 star rating places is overrated, 4 star is max Clean but shortfalls were - short on serving staff. Often uncomfortable wait for experienced travellers -beer was down in same place for several days and troublesome everywhere -knives need replacing, dull as a spoon -front desk answers were contradictory and sometimes wrong -pool area needs those little poolside tables to put belongings on -lobby area should have snacks handy-like nachos or candy -breakfast was exact same every day- a bit of variety would avoid boredom after 5 days -main lobby washrooms were a bit stinky and dark. Made u want to go back to your room

This is not a 5 star resort, more of a 4 star, there are not a lot of amenities or activities, there were some. No watersports, and no room for it really. Having said that we had read the reviews and knew what it would be like going in so we were not disappointed and we had a great vacation at this property. The beach is small, less than 75 feet wide and only around 100 loungers. But the water was beautiful and always calm. There were tons of fish both close in and further out. The food was ok, the buffet was small but always had something good to eat, the restaurants were ok as well. There were a few delicious dishes, the pumpkin soup and the crispy pork dish at the Oceana restaurant were great. The beach/pool grill wasn't great. Drinks were great with lots of variety. Service tended to be slow at bars and restaurants, but we were on vacation and weren't ever in a rush. The hotel is older and shows it but the housekeeping and maintenance staff were always busy keeping things up. Our room 535 was huge and had a sofa and a pair of chairs as well, not all rooms were as big it was a preferred club perk. The view and setting of the hotel was beautiful There is a part of an old fort beside the beach and tour groups came in to see it most mornings. Air Canada Rouge was not good, no space and very uncomfortable seats. I would never fly it ever again.

Liked the layout, the grounds, food was good, staff was excellent, helpful. Liked the location. We did not appreciate the accommodation , run down, in need of renovation. During our time there , they fumigated the rooms. We suspect they have bedbugs, based on the bites we noticed. Not great value for the price, as we could have gone elsewhere for less.

The room was not very clean especially the bathroom was moldy.Complained and was moved to another room the following day Which was slightly better. The grounds was ok. Not fantastic The food was good when the main dining room buffet was open it was closed 3 timer for dinner the week we were there and the 3 restaurants were unable to handle everyone food was cold and unavailable.

In over 40 years of business and leisure travel by far the worst resort and airline package ever. Old tired Hyatt miserable check in staff got the wrong room changed two days later to another room with mould and a singing toilet! On. any given night 5 of the “ supposed” 7 restaurants were closed the buffet is closed in Sundays. Horrible food and low quality no variety no food or drinks anywhere after midnight pools small and limited lounges, beach was a sandbox. The only good thing was the weather! There is no way the resort should be recommended to anyone and Air Canada should be ashamed to offer it as an AC package. By the way AC supplied planes on a 5 hour flight with no TV screens no IPhone chargers and seating space for those under 10! Absolutely disgusting!

We had a wonderful stay at Il Mare. There were very many positives about this small resort and I will also share a couple of things that we feel needs improvement in order to attract folks, like us, who truly expect a 5 star resort when it is advertised as such. First of all, the transfer to the hotel from the airport was very disorganized. Our bus was held up almost a half hour while waiting for people to get on. It turned out those two people were actually us, who checked in with both Air Canada and the bus yet somehow no-one thought to get on the bus before the long delay to ensure we were on- which we certainly were. The bus then dropped us at "Dreams" next door and told us to walk to Il Mare. We are pretty fit people, so no issue for us, but another couple on the bus were not in the same position as us. Upon departure, we were assured by our butler(s) multiple times that we would be picked up at Il Mare and we watched the bus go to Dreams and then leave the grounds. $35. US later, to be paid by us, we got a taxi. Super disappointing. Now for the resort itself- the "pods" are amazing! It was a very cool experience being so close to the ocean and steps to our own beach. Housekeeping was decent and, when necessary, when we informed them they had missed us, they promptly came. Food was decent. Not "amazing" but decent. Sometimes you ordered eggs for breakfast and sometimes they brought you a ham sandwich. We just rolled with it. Their hospitality sector is severely lacking. Although everyone was kind and friendly, I don't think they have had any training on how to actually serve the public. That is a definite area for improvement. The beach area, although small, offered great snorkelling and you could swim once you got past the rocky entrance. The view and sunsets were spectacular- even from our room. We only visited Dreams to use the gym which offered very little equipment, dated, and mostly broken and unusable. We rolled with that too. Across the street was the 3rd resort that we had access to. Zoetry. Poolside lunch was the best "hot" (temperature) food we experienced. That resort is very pretty and tropical. And with that comes bugs, something we did not have at Il Mare. Our pool area was lovely and relatively quiet. There were no "rush to save chairs" issues. The grounds are well kept and tidy. There is only bar on this resort and service, like everywhere else was friendly, fun and painfully slow. The bar was well stocked with good quality liquors and beer and even the wines were pretty good. We did not really benefit from the "butler" service. We found them also to be friendly and very unreliable. It was easier to just pretty much do our own thing. We never made a dinner reservation and were welcome in to each restaurant at any resort with no issue. Overall, for the money we paid (we booked summer of 2025 for January 2026) we felt we got great value and got to see Curacao. We actually would love to go back to the resort but I really hope they are able to improve in some much needed areas before that.

The Main Hotel section a Dream requires tender loving care. It has the potential if managed and directed effectively to be like Jan Theil area. But the Senior management must have the foresight. The issue is dreams have spent so much time trying to upscale and upsell their portable looking timeshares accommodations that they've neglected the main buildings, interior and exterior. For example, I roomed in 4 20. Everything was okay except for the bathroom tub. Luckily for them I was solo traveling. If I had another companion I would have demanded another rule The tub itself alone had peeling marks on it and sealed which it is not attractive. The employees were kind and cooperative. The spa area was nice. I give that a 4 /5 The building itself alone its renovation And it needs I got a touch of adventure and excitement because it has the structural ability to do so I give it a 2 / 5 And if you can eat off the resort. There's a nice restaurants within walking distance with a beautiful view of the sea and the food is very good

I recently returned from Dreams Curaçao and I was not impressed. We did not get served tea/coffee not one morning. Basically everything, other than a la carte is serve yourself. When we are paying a so much money, I would like at least drinks. Nobody by the pool served you. Majority of the employees looked like they didn’t want to be there. We could not find a Westjet rep to help us nor was there a binder for flight/bus pick up times. They did their best with night time entertainment, however it’s not the best. The buffet is basically the same every meal/every day. Jessica who worked the bar at night was amazing and Livy with entertainment did a great job! The resort itself has potential, however they require proper management in running it to a 5* standard. Currently it’s running at 2.5-3 at best. Needless to say we will not be returning.

Dreams was a nice resort, however, would not return. Pros - close to town - nice beach, though very small - good location at water - buffet breakfast and lunch were wonderful - rooms nice layout, spacious, nice balcony, comfortable beds, nice washroom Cons - Air conditioning NOT working all week - very humid - hard to sleep - Only warm to hot water all the time, no cool or cold water - Not happy at all with events, entertainment or advising of events - Room right above the main lobby, didn't know how loud it was at night events - Pool towels most of the time were empty/used - Only 2-3 restaurants open daily - buffet only 2x for dinner - Air Canada Rep - never saw her past 1st day - no offer of option of shuttle to town, other resorts that was an option- disappointed

The resort is small, has 3 "restaurants" plus a buffet despite what the website says, and 1 of the 3 were closed most nights, so limited dining options. Most of the food was below average, and the many items were the same in each restaurant. They don't serve wine with dinner, you need to buy it by the bottle. The buffet was identical each breakfast and lunch, your only option for those meals. The beach is tiny, about the size of my front lawn. Most beaches in Curacao are small as they are small coves. They had "2" bars, but the one never, ever had a server at it. Didn't get a drink at it all week, nor did I see anyone else. They don't use top shelf alcohol, you have to walk to an office in the back to get a drink with it, and you have to have a "preferred" room to access it. Also, they play very, very loud music every night until anywhere from 1030- 1130 pm each night, at the foot of the hotel. You cannot get away from it, so I would only recommend a "NON OCEANVIEW" room to block as much of the music as possible, unless you like being stuck listening to off-key KAREOKE singers until 1030 pm. You seriously cannot get away from it if you want any quiet time in the evening. Bring earplugs if you go to bed before 11pm. The Casino is tiny, and only used by locals for the slots. I went in 3x and no one was ever at a blackjack table or roulette. ALSO, ZOETRY is accross the road and they come to the postage stamp beach to use as well. - Lastly, watch out for the "Hyatt All Inclusive" sales pitch that they will try to sell you for $30K US. The sales person even admitted to us that the Dreams Curacao is no more than a 3 star resort. The trip is cheap for a reason. Honestly, I would never ever go back there. I am only writing this to help decision makers in the future. We rented a car, the lsland itself is awesome. So much to see and explore. The downtown is gorgeous and safe. We ended up eating out - off the resort 3 times because the food was so below average.

The Hotel was comfortable a clean . The people who worked there were great. The Food was fresh and delicious. The Entertainment was fun. The pool and Beach was fabulous. The restaurants were great! The views were spectacular. We had a wonderful 7 day stay celebrating our 40th anniversary. I cannot believe all the poor reviews that I read prior to going. I had one issue not getting drinks as quick as we thought we should on the very first night, but 1 complaint to the office rectified the problem and the set the tone for the rest of the week! Book this resort. It was great!

Enjoyed the surroundings. Staff was very hospitable, accommodated our needs in a timely manner when we had problems with our TV. Enjoyed the beach and great entertainment each night. They offered a variety of tasty meals. Overall, excellent, will go back for a visit and stay at the Dreams Resort.

Came back from our trip very very disappointed - thought we were going to a five stars when actually we got a low 3 stars Food was average and Alcoholic drinks were NOT top shelf .... i.e. if you wanted a Corona it was $5 US ...and JW Scotch was $5. per shot ... defeats the purpose of an "all inclusive if you have to keep paying extra for premium ( actually the first all inclusive resort I have been to where they did this) in addition the concierge staff constantly tries to upsell you on meals or private dining. Rooms are clean however a bit dated Staff - some very friendly majority really did not want to be there - i think the majority working in the buffet area were kids on summer break. I can write a book of the issues we had (group of 10) but don't really think it would help the hotel need a overall manager of customer service. Curacao was great however we will definitely not go back to this hotel.

I found the people to be very friendly and helpful. The amenities were lacking in many areas: Food and service were just average. by the time food reached the table it was cold or barely warm - (Japanese restaurant is the exception - but food was very salty). The buffet for breakfast, lunch and dinner was passable. many times the table were lacking cutlery and slow service. The lack of a grill area for breakfast was a major set back for me. I had food poisoning for the last 3 days of my stay - not fun. The room and cleaning were good. Many of the towels looked stained and not clean. I liked the coffee bar. The beach and pool were decent. Quite often the majority of the chairs were covered with towels and no one using them.

We were pleasantly surprised with our trip to Dreams Curacao in January 2024. The service the staff at the hotel provide was good. Our room was a bit dated but it was clean, everything worked and was well maintained. Clean beach towels were provided every morning at the pool, The resort is not to far from the airport maybe a 20 minute drive. Our room faced the ocean on the 5th floor with a magnificent view. At times it was noisy at night time but never past 11:30pm.

Good food. Would like the buffet open for dinner as well as breakfast and lunch. Beautiful pool, grounds. Only one place to buy souvenirs Too expensive. Staff very friendly and accommodating. Rooms cleaned daily.

The rooms were very clean but lacking in personality/decor. The hallways and stairwells almost seemed institutional, they were so plain. We had to request additional shower gel as it was not replenished. Pillows were lumpy. The chairs on the balcony were very uncomfortable. One night we had to wait over 90 minutes for our dinner at the Italian restaurant, and then one dish was unpalatable. Another night, the service was excellent and the food delicious, at the same restaurant. The ribeye steak at the Bluewater grill was less than a centimetre thick and cooked well done. We were not asked how we would like it cooked. The fish tacos at the Oceana lunch restaurant were awesome. The food at the limited buffet was repetitive but quite tasty. We enjoyed the croquettes very much. There was never bacon at breakfast, though there were usually 3 kinds of sausage. Service in the buffet was less than stellar, as it was hard to get a refill of beverages. The wait staff spent most of their time clearing tables. There were perhaps not enough staff. At the pool bar, pours were generous, but the plastic glassware was so old, it was opaque with wear and scratches. They often ran out of bottles of water. Beach chairs under the palapa in the shade had to be reserved with a towel by 7 in the morning. There were sections of the beach that were rocky and hard to navigate in bare feet. Staff were always very friendly, even when they were working very hard. We had a pleasant week but would not return to this resort.

Came back from our trip very disappointed - thought we were going to a five stars when actually we got a low 3 stars Furnitures needs a good cleanup, quality and variety of food is mediocre and not consistent and is advertising as international alcoholic beverages which you do not get, you have to be a preferred member to get it (which you pay more for of course) We had a Deluxe King Ocean View which was OK (however did get the ocean view), Beach, what beach 30 steps and then you go back, pool is not bad 5 feet deep all around We will definitely not go back

Stayed at dreams spa and casino in curacao, amazing staff/rooms/beaches and food. Weather was perfect covid protocols were top notch, everyone was happy to help with any issues that came up. The entertainment on site was also a big bonus. 10/10 would go again

The hotel was very nice and quite small so quiet. They are trying hard to get organized but still have a ways to go. The dining facilities are adequate but I found the hot food on the buffet was always lukewarm at best. There are few restaurants on site and one of the nicest was closed 3 of our 7 nights which was disappointing. We only found out with two days to go that there was an al a carte lunch available at one of the outdoor restaurants. It would be nice if there was better communication or something posted in the lobby area as to what is open that day for lunch or dinner and then you could make choices. The pool and beach was nice but there was no place to go for a walk along the beach as it was quite small. The house wine was not good at all and buying the premium wines each day was quite expensive and they were always out of the ones you chose. We were at the resort during Carnival so the hotel shuttle was not running for 3 days during this event. The only way into town was by taxi which was very expensive. Again we wished this would have been communicated to us when we arrived so we could have made plans for another day. The weather is wonderful!
