Felt very safe for me and my family

Best vacation.

Best vacation.

The property, beach and villa were amazing. The breakfast was delicious and the service was excellent. My only issue was the lack of communication from the resort before arriving. We reached out to the front desk and the golf shop via email and phone. We only were able to communicate with the golf shop via phone and the prices quoted over the phone and posted on the website were different at the resort…When we brought up the issue to management they simply said the “the price is the price” …that is my only complaint, we would have been better prepared with our golf clubs if the prices were quoted correctly. I do not feel it was handled properly being that we were staying on property.

The resort was extremely safe, nice staff, and the grounds were well kept. Unfortunately, it was closer to camping than a beach resort. There is no air conditioning except for the 2 bedrooms, which have no TV. The kitchen and living room are sweltering hot all day and night. There are also no screens so if you open the wood slats, bugs can come in. We were warned by hotel staff to be careful opening wood blinds because mosquitoes carry dengue fever. Yikes! Every outside noise is heard inside. Loud neighbors woke us up nightly! During our 8 night, 9 day stay, housekeeping only came one time. You are reusing towels for days. They have no washcloths at the property. The flush on our toilet broke. I was told maintenance would fix. Nobody came that day. When we asked about it again, we were asked to use the 2nd toliet for the remainder of our stay because they needed to take the entire wall piece off to fix the flusher. The four of us ended up having to use one toilet for the last 2 days, even though we purposely paid for a 2 bathroom unit. On the 2nd day, our dishwasher started stinking up our entire unit. It smelled as though rotting fish was in it, even though no dishes or anything were in it. We dealt with the horrible smell and 3 days of maintenance coming in and out until they finally found something causing it 3 days later. Beach and restaurants are not walkable distance. Consider somewhere that’s better maintained…

Villa that we stayed in was extremely nice and comfortable!

I think they should tell people before hand that they are responsible for their own water and electric usage Their electric sockets are different and they need special plugs Other then that I enjoyed myself Thanks

We stayed a week in a two bedroom condo at the Shores. Excellent location with beautiful beach view. The place had everything we needed including a big balcony facing the beach. Staff was very welcoming and assisted us with our needs.

The apartment was wonderful. Very comfortable and quiet. The pool right out front was lovely. Internet signal in the room wasn't the greatest which impacted the tv use (smart tv). Expedia listed a microwave in the room but there was only an oven. It was about a ten minute walk to the beach. Restaurants were all excellent. I would return.

The Blue Bay apartment was more or less ok to stay for a week, but due to several very uncomfortable features, I can’t imagine staying here for a longer period of time: -The windows in the apartment are all looking at a very busy road used by huge construction vehicles from 6:40am until late evening. It would be ok if there were actual glass windows on them, but there are only wooden shades and NO glass on doors and windows facing this road. To avoid mosquitos coming into the bedroom, these were kept closed down for a week, which made it so awfully dark and unpleasant in the room. -There are not enough lights in the bedroom and one of the bedside lights is broken off - The air conditioning is only present in bedrooms and not in the large kitchen/living room area. It gets extremely hot in this area and no fans were provided. Doors to the balcony need to stay closed during rainy mosquitoes season - Only 4 free pods of coffee were provided for the 4 people staying for 7 days. Not a single supermarket on the island sells these special size Lavazza pods, only reception sells them at $1/each -The beach is 20min walk away, but there are absolutely no walkways available for pedestrians and cars and construction vehicles drive 10-20 miles above speed limit on these roads -If we do come back to Blue Bay again, staying at the beach buildings, or close to the beach, is necessary, unless those are cost prohibitive

Overall I had a great time, I wish I would have done more research and rented a car, because we spent quite a bit of money on using the taxi service. The front desk (Yvette and Danielle) were absolutely a pleasure and the Chef, kitchen staff and Bartender at Lemongrass made it even better. My husband had an iguana prepared that was amazingly cooked and presented it was the highlight of his visit, but we definitely will stay here again when we return.

The private beach was very nice. Snorkeling was great. Felt very safe the whole time. When in room it was pretty quiet. Some construction nearby but they didn’t start super early and didn’t work on the weekend. Pool was nice, too, but spent most of the time at the beach.

Resort is beautiful on a magnificent beach. Very friendly and helpful staff. Nicely kept grounds and good food and bar service on beach. Our unit: Two million dollar view in our large 3 BR/3 bath condo, contrast with college dorm quality furnishings. Needed new paint and bathroom cabinets falling apart. Most uncomfortable beds and pillows. Seems like after purchasing unit owner ran out of money to furnish and upkeep.

The property was clean and well maintained with the exception of the fridge and coffee maker. There should be air conditioning on the main living area. Some mosquitos. All in all not bad.

Property was peaceful & beautiful. Not much information was provided, it was difficult finding activities to do on the property & the surrounding island. Need better road maps, directions for areas to go would be very beneficial. Maybe it’s a cultural thing but to get waited on was comical. Didn’t seem as though anyone cared on how your meals were or if you would like more to drink & waiting on the bill took quite a long time. Always had to ask for it, usually from someone else & not the server/waiter. It’s almost as if they disappeared or left for the day.

View access to beach. Could use a little upgrade. Wonderful safe base in Curacao.

Great view, location, breeze, etc. Very safe as well due to constant security patrol

Somewhere between 3.5 to 3.6 stars but not a 4 If I had to pick out all the minor flaws with the room they would be high double digits. All these little things add up. The private beach is a 3 minute drive, it's decent, not the clearest waters but passable. The bar serves decent food at fair price w/ live music at night. At the end I've decided to cut my stay short and try other 4 star resorts.

The views here are simply gorgeous and the unit was clean. The staff were accommodating a few small challenges but all were handled. I recommend this property and would stay here again.

The kitchen was infested with cockroaches. There was no outdoor patio. There was no washing machine. The beach was beautiful the pool was nice and the golf course was lovely. We stayed in the Blue Bay Village last year and it was much nicer. Plenty of space to have breakfast outside or just lounge with a book. It had a washing machine and there were no cockroaches. It was also a shorter walk to the beach. We had to drive to the beach daily as we have a 1 year old and a 3 year old I would never stay in the Blue Bay gardens again. It was awful
