Wonderful stay, listing was accurate and the view was even better in person. My family thoroughly enjoyed our stay and the home provided all the amenities that we needed plus more. Great location with tons of restaurants in walking distance, awesome beach and pool for kids and adults. The host was also awesome, very welcoming, great communication and even had welcome goodies for us. We'll definitely stay here again in a heartbeat!

Wonderfully relaxing space with that million dollar view. The condo had all we needed for a great stay and is as described. Plenty of towels - beach ones as well. Very clean with a fun selection of books, but mostly in Dutch and we don’t speak the language, but fun to flip through in any case. Kitchen was stocked with all needed to prepare your own meals. Appliances worked perfectly. The bedding seemed to lack a flat sheet on beds, but that is a matter of taste and just what we are used to in the states. There was, however, a lack of bed pillows and when we asked for a few more, none arrived.
We enjoyed our stay very much and would return to the same spot upon a return trip to Curaçao!

The Strand was perfect for us! We are a family of four and to have a bathroom attached to each bedroom was very nice. And, the extra 1/2 bathroom off the kitchen was a bonus! The oversized chair out on the balcony was a family favorite!
The building and unit were very clean and quiet. The view is incredible! When we initially booked the unit we were thrilled that there was also a pool but honestly, we spent all our time down on the water or exploring other beaches and the island. We loved that The Strand is within walking distance of Willemstad as well. It was the perfect place for us to unwind!!
The check-in and check-out process was easy and Saskia was ready to help with whatever we needed.
Tanne was very responsive with her all communication (I had many questions for her prior to our renting the unit). We had no issues whatsoever.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and highly recommend 3C at The Strand!

The Strand is a beautiful, well kept property with a great view and a private beach. It is an excellent location for seeing the island.

We had a wonderful stay and wish we could have stayed longer. We really enjoyed the beach area and the closeness to town. The listing has a few inconsistencies. you are responsible for paper towels and toilet paper after the initial is gone and the wifi has changed than
the one stated in the binder but these are little things that did not detract from our stay. This condo was perfect for our family.

We think this condo is in a great location, and this particular unit has a great view. The unit was clean, ready for our arrival, and boast an admirable view from it's 3rd story location. Four adults stayed here comfortably, the kitchen had everything we needed for any meals we made in the unit.
The master and 2nd bedroom are amply sized, the third bedroom is very small, appropriate for a young child, but not an adult. The beautiful balcony has a table and six chairs, a lovely spot for any meal. But there is only one comfortable lounge chair, there really should be two. Overall, we'd be happy to stay hear again.
6.0 / 10.0
The location is great with a swimming, pool, beach, and snorkeling, right out your door. The condo is spacious and can house 2 to 3 families easily. It is close to shops and restaurants. We would recommend the Wine Cellar. There were, however, hidden charges that we did not expect. We were asked to pay for the electric bill beyond a certain amount per day, which was not in the contract. It’s been three weeks since we rented and we have not received our deposit back nor did we receive any communication as to why. For these reasons, we are giving this condo a low rating and renters should be aware of hidden charges.

Spacious apartment with wonderful ocean view. Walking distance to Willemstad old town center, and many excellent restaurants. Excellent security.

Balanced vacation
We absolutely loved our private beach cove and accessibility to town. This was a much needed reprieve with a balance of excursions as well as relaxation on the beach.

Excellent Location
This property is very well positioned. Not only do you have the benefits of a private beach and pool for the limited number of units in the building, but you are within walking distance of downtown Willemstad and many great restaurants within the immediate vicinity of the property. Security is also very good.

Wonderful condo!!
First time to Curacao and I would recommend staying here for so many reason; the location is excellent...close to town, restaurants, a major hotel is a few buildings down and its near other major beach centers; having your own beach on the property was a huge advantage as it can get very busy at other beaches, and this beach was beautiful, beautiful sand, water and your own gorgeous sunsets. The view is outstanding...one of the prettiest Vrbo views I have had. Very quiet building and very clean. The owners are wonderful, they respond so quickly to all of your questions and are very helpful. We would highly recommend this condo!!

Curacao condo
This beautiful condo is about a 7 minute drive from downtown Willemstad where all the action is. You can also walk there in under 30 minutes – we did, almost every day. Gorgeous view from the porch, living room and master bedroom. Very quiet and private. Very clean. Nice quality linens and towels and comfortable beds. The central air works great. Nice pool and private beach with lounge chairs. Fast Internet in the condo and at the beach. Generous supply of toilet paper and paper towels. Very responsive when you have a question or an issue. The only reason we did not rate this property with five stars is that the hot water did not work in either the master bathroom shower or in the second bedroom shower. So we had to shower in the third small bathroom off of the small third single bedroom (think cruise ship sized shower).

Awesome view and location
The view from the balcony was spectacular. Unit was fine for two couples. While the second bedroom is smaller, we had the two twin beds made into a king and had no issues. Loved the onsite beach. The lagoon made it great for swimming. Spoiled by the central AC but turn it off during the day to stay within the daily limit. The kitchen is well stocked - two minor issues (large fry pan non-stick coating is coming off and sometimes the freezer didn't make a lot of ice). We rented a car and easily traveled downtown to restaurants and further up island for snorkeling. Our favorite was playa porto mari (wonderful snorkeling and easy access from the beach - not too rocky). Easy walk to Cana restaurant (one of our favorites). Also loved Kome.

Great place for a holiday
We just spent a week at Tanne’s apartment at the Strand and it was amazing. The third floor unit has a huge balcony looking directly out into the water, and the property is very quiet and peaceful. The unit is nicely appointed with tasteful, simple, modern furnishings. And the location is great: close enough to walk to numerous restaurants and the old Willemstad area, but remote enough to be quiet and feel like you’re really getting away. I’d highly recommend staying here!

A nice family spot
This location is located about a mile from some great dining. The beaches in Curacao are a little rough, so the private beach/lagoon is very nice and calm at all times during the day. A vehicle is a must at this location if you want to see the island. Very safe and well guarded. If you are buying groceries however make sure to go into town and stay away from the local Chinese store down the road.

Fabulous View
Everything in the apartment was exactly as listed. The view and access to the ocean were beautiful! We wished we could have stayed longer. And walking distance to many great restaurants. Thanks Tanne

Beautiful Oceanfront Apartment
My family had the pleasure of staying at this newly renovated 3 bedroom oceanfront apartment. It was spacious and clean. The views are beautiful from the balcony. The pool area and beach area were very nice and quiet. I highly recommend staying here if you are planning a trip to Curacao.

A room with a (sea) view
Wij hebben het goed naar ons zin gehad in Curaçao eind maart mede dankzij ons verblijf in het appartement van eigenaresse Tanne en natuurlijk Karin de beheerder van het complex. Zij hebben ons zeer goed, snel en gastvrij begeleid.
Wij hebben dit appartement gekozen vanwege de gunstige locatie t.o.v. Willemstad en de grootte. Het complex, bestaande uit zo’n 18 appartementen is verdeeld over 4 woonlagen. Het is gunstig gelegen aan het strand met een zwembad, op ca. 15 minuten loopafstand van het centrum van Willemstad. Het prive strand is voorzien van ligbedden met in het strandhuisje gratis kussens en zwembandjes voor de kids. Parkeren kun je voor de deur op een afgesloten en bewaakt parkeerterrein. Iedere appartement heeft zijn eigen parkeerplek. Tijdens ons verblijf was erg rustig in het complex. Dit is onze 3e keer op Curaçao (respectievelijk 5 en 10 jaar geleden) en de Penstraat waaraan het gelegen is, is opmerkelijk op vooruitgegaan. Heel wat (authentieke) huizen zijn in de loop der tijd gerenoveerd en het is vooral een stuk levendiger geworden. In de nabije omgeving zijn leuke restaurants te vinden en op ca. 3 minuten (auto) rijafstand is een supermarkt en een tankstation. Mocht je een auto hebben dan heb je op ca. 10 minuten afstand een XL Albert Heijn (van der Tweel) waar je echt alles kunt kopen wat je ook in Nederland kunt vinden, er staat zelfs een haringkar voor de deur. Een huurauto lijkt me wel een pre zeker als je meer van het eiland wilt zien maar is niet noodzakelijk als je een beetje van wandelen houdt en in Willemstad wilt blijven.
Het appartement is erg ruim, modern ingericht en zeer geschikt voor gezinnen met (meerdere) kinderen of twee aparte stellen. Het heeft een ruime woonkamer met open keuken, een apart toilet en 3 slaapkamers met ieder een eigen badkamer wat voor privacy zorgt. Een washok met wasmachine en wasdroger maakt het geheel compleet. De keuken was van alle gemakken voorzien met alle huishoudelijke artikelen wat je thuis ook zou aantreffen. Op het ruime balkon kun je aan tafel heerlijk van het uitzicht genieten en bootjes voorbij zien varen. Enige minpuntje wat ik kan bedenken is dat ik dit keer geen dolfijnen heb zien langskomen.

Wonderful condo in Curacao
We loved visiting Curacao because there is a lot to do and the condo is a great
place to crash after a busy day. The views from the deck are lovely, the small beach and swimming pool are well maintained and quiet. Children would enjoy the safe enclosed beach.
The condo 3C is simply but beautifully decorated with new furniture and art. There are books to read, the deck is large and private, the beds comfortable. The space suits a couple with 2-3 kids the best. The master is large with walk in closet and view to the ocean. The second bedroom with twins has a private bath but is much smaller and faces the street. Two couples traveling together should know that the two main bedrooms are very different. The condo, The Strand, is well managed and is safe, gated and has many great restaurants within walking distance. It is easy to get around and drive to the tourist sites, lovely beaches, diving and snorkeling. There seems to always be a breeze in Curacao in the winter and we only needed AC in the late afternoon. All the appliances are new and there is a washer and dryer.
The owner is very friendly and helpful and is easy to contact. The management company who you meet upon arrival is very competent and is available during your stay.
I would highly recommend Curacao and The Strand 3C!
