We have just returned home from 5 glorious weeks at Villa Hammaka. The villa was absolutely perfect for 2 couples, each having your own king sized bed and bathroom. The property is extremely private and very well maintained. We made use of the charcoal BBQ and ate under the pergola on the deck every night. There is great snorkelling right off the dock and the water is so warm and quite calm. Heather, the owner, was so accommodating and super responsive to our requests or questions. She even picked us up at the airport and delivered us back when it was time to return home. She was lovely! We rented her vehicle which was great for sightseeing and traveling around the Island. I cannot say enough about our stay.....we will definitely be back!

Traumhaft schön. Leben im offenen Haus. Sogar Motorboot zubuchbar!!!

The owners are top notch folks, helped us from arrival to departure and very detailed oriented. Nice little house, secure, off the main drag but close to all amenities Curacao has to offer. Our 2 kids loved chasing around lizards and iguanas in the yard and the dock is awesome to relax at in the evenings.

Beautiful spot with great view on Spanish water. We loved the boat which brought a lot of fun to our kids. Warm welcome by Barry and his son. We love to come back.

We were so lucky to have found Heather and Villa Hammaka for our weeklong stay on Curacao. We loved the privacy of this beautiful property, and enjoyed beginning and ending each day relaxing in the hammocks overlooking the bay. Heather met us at the property when we arrived and showed us the fully stocked closet with bath and beach towels, chairs, fishing equipment and more. She told us about the closest grocery stores and restaurants - we took her recommendation to visit a new gelato place up the street and ended up going 3 times during our 5 night stay! AC in the main bedroom made sleeping very comfortable, and we loved the big shower head. Heather was very helpful when we had an issue with the security system and the water going out, due to construction next door - we never felt bothered by the construction, no early morning or late night interruptions! It was wonderful after spending a day in Willemstad or at the beaches on the west side to come "home" and relax in a hammock with a glass of wine. We truly feel regenerated after our trip to Curacao, and have Heather and Villa Hammaka to thank!

Wir hatten wunderschöne und erholsame Tage an einem, für uns, traumhaften Ort. Kommunikation und Information, im Vorfeld und während des Aufenthaltes, waren super. Es hat uns an nichts gefehlt Lage, Ausstattung, Sauberkeit und Größe alles bestens. Ein Wiedersehen ist nicht auszuschließen, danke Heather.

Villa Hammaka is the perfect place to relax and enjoy the warm, breezy days in Curacao. The quiet cove and dock are the best place to start your day with your morning coffee or end your day with a glass of wine in the evening. Heather gave us lots of information about things to do on the island and nothing is very far away. The house was the right size for our family - nicely furnished, comfortable beds, everything very clean and neat. The kitchen is well equipped if you want to stay in and cook but there are many places to eat nearby.

We stayed at Villa Hammaka for the first part of our 12 day vacation on Curaçao. We also stayed on west side of island which is quieter but would recommend staying on both sides of island, we would do the same thing again. You can see the sunrise really well on villa Hammaka side, no sunrise views on west side. Partial view of sunsets at Villa Hammaka beautiful pink skies, full on view of sunsets on west side. The villa was very well stocked with plenty of towels and everything you need in the kitchen. The bed was very comfortable and really nice shower too, there was another bedroom but we didn't use it as it was only the 2 of us. We enjoyed grilling some steaks and burgers on the charcoal grill out on the deck. We enjoyed a day of swimming off the dock and laying on the floatie tied to the dock. In the mornings we would get up before sunrise and sit and watch the sun come up with our coffee and enjoyed the breezes and the sailboats. Close to nice beaches, restaurants, grocery stores and Willemstad to enjoy the city. At the end of the day it was nice to come and enjoy the breezes and lay in the hammock. Heather was lovely and very informative and always available for any questions we had. Thank you for a wonderful stay, we hope to be back.

This house has many positives that make it well worth taking a closer look for your Curaçao vacation rental! The house is located on a *secluded* lot on the Spanish Waters inlet, a place where boats & catamarans (flying flags of a variety of countries) come for safe harbor. There is also a nearby marina with sea kayaks, kite-surfing & SUPs (stand-up paddleboards) available to rent and a variety of activity on the water to entertain. Several points of interest nearby: the historical fort, shopping, restaurants, public parks & beaches and other activities. (We were there for scuba diving and found a couple of dive shops close by.) Your safety is a chief concern of the home owners, providing its occupants a real sense of security. The house is behind a remote-controlled gated entry and has lines-of-sight beams surrounding the perimeter as well as the house itself, to be secured each night before retiring. And, the security company may stop by if something is disrupting the beams (such a long towel blowing on the clothesline). The interior of the house is spacious without taking up a lot of real estate— a very efficient layout. 2 bedrooms, each with a king bed (ideal for a traveling couples) and private bath; and, a nicely equipped kitchen/living area. In addition, there are several outdoor spaces to be enjoyed—a large covered area w/ large dining table, a smaller table under the pergola right by the water, and yet more seating out at the end of the dock. We also appreciated the outdoor shower for rinsing off scuba/snorkel gear after use. Heather de Paulo was responsive to our Qs related to the house & tourist attractions—before & after arrival; and had some basic groceries waiting for us in the refrigerator since we were arriving very late. She also provided airport shuttles, since the house may be challenging to find for island first-timers. Don’t overlook the vehicle (Toyota RAV-4) that is offered—it was clean and can get around anywhere your touring may take you. It was a huge bonus to have waiting for us at the house and not have to deal with one more thing at the end of our long travel day getting to Curaçao. One down side: Construction started on the neighboring property mid-week with a couple days of lot-leveling excavator work. Hope it is over soon—the noise was not loud-- but constant and started about 7:15am and went until 5:45pm.

We loved this home and loved our trip to Curacao! Heather and Barry were so helpful, responsive and made every effort to make our trip a great one! The home is even more beautiful than the pictures give it credit. You'll be blown away upon arrival. I would give 4.5 stars if I could, only negative were the power outages (we had two) which made it so we couldn't leave one day for a beach trip and one evening for dinner, due to the security gate not able to open. Other than that, this home and the owners are fantastic!

Great house, lovely garden, veranda and seaview, quiet, away from it all, great beds and shower. Friendly, well organised, owner. The house is even more lovely than the pictures show. We had a wonderful time here! A recommendation for families with children and restseeking couples!

Tolle Lage am Spanish Water mit Blick auf die Segler vor Anker und den Tafelberg. Auto und Boot sind absolut notwendig.

Beste Ausflüge: Mit dem Boot zum St. Barbara Beach Hotel Anleger oder zum Piratennest. Mit dem Auto: Zum Tauchen zum Tugboat.

We loved our stay at Villa Hammaka and the great hospitality by our hosts. The water views from the villa are spectacular (much better then expected) and the outdoor setting is calm, serene and private. The inside of the house is simple but with taste and just lovely for my kids and wife. No issues. You can almost spend your entire vacation sitting around the house. Our host Heather helped us find the villa on the first day and really made us feel at home. We are grateful to her and her husband for their hospitality.

The house is situated in a beautiful spot of the bay. The quality of everything in the house is excellent. There is an amazing number of fish under the dock. Great snorkeling only 10-15 mins away. Sunsets are very special on the deck. Heather went out of her way to make our stay great. The only bad thing is having to leave Villa Hammaka when our vacation ended.

We just spent 2 weeks over the holidays at this fantastic villa on the Spanish Waters, relaxing in the hammocks and lounging on the dock, so much so that we didn't want to leave. The layout is perfect to accommodate 2 adult couples. The villa has great indoor outdoor space, with large sliding doors to open up the living spaces, a large covered dining / sitting area just off the house, and a patio area beneath the gazebo by the water. The location by the bay provides a constant, refreshing breeze coming off the water. The villa is in a very convenient location, 15 minute drive to downtown Willemstad with several good grocery stores nearby and easy access to dive shops and beaches. Director's Bay, a short 5 minute drive away, became our favorite snorkelling/dive spot. We also rented a small sailboat from nearby Prosail, which is just around the corner. A few of our favorite restaurants are Piri Piri and Seaside Terrace. Heather, the owner was very welcoming and responsive to any requests that we had. She picked us up at the airport and brought us to the villa, pointing out attractions and amenities along the way. At the villa she gave us a good walk through, pointing out it's features and how everything worked. The villa surpassed our expectations as the space and the surrounding areas turned out to be even more breathtaking in person than what the photos convey. We would like to thank Heather for her great hospitality and look forward to returning some day soon!

Great place for a family.... if your looking for a place to stay where your kids can enjoy the oceanfront.
