The beach and Carribean water was absolutely beautiful. The accomodation not so much… it was very dated, furniture throughout very uncomfortable. The only comfortable furniture was out on the deck which is facing West but it was the only condo with no awning soooo couldn’t sit out there til sunset ….would go back to Curacao but would never rent this condo again. It was a very overpriced unit!!

Curaçao was amazing. The beach and apartment was very good and would recommend this vacation. However, be aware of a possible extra charge cash grab. We were asked to pay extra afterwards for energy and water overages. We don’t believe this was factual. We are 2 older individuals that are quite conservative. We rented a vehicle and were gone most days, ate out almost every day…. Contract says 35 kWh for each day is included and we paid a deposit. They kept the deposit and wanted more after we left. This simply is not possible for what we used while there; in comparison to my electric bill for our 3000 sq/ft home in Canada - this isn’t possible. 2 air conditioners were broken in the main rooms, and from what I’ve read in the reviews.. they have been broken for awhile. To tell you what type of people we are, I broke the coffee pot accidentally in the sink, and went and bought them a new one the next day. Not afraid to spend money - just honestly. We asked for an explanation and was given he brush off. I don’t feel as if we were being dealt with in good faith. But, I could be wrong. If the air conditioners were defective, they could have been draining power even if not working. I did speak to the repairman that was sent to confirm it was broken and that the other was broken for some time. If you rent this apartment, you will have a great time and it is what they say it is - just get the readings before and after and I would suggest having everything signed off before you go.

Property is great! Had some difficulty with the check in information being provided . All was resolved and we really enjoyed our time in Blue Bay and all of Curacao.!

Fabulous place that met all expectations. The rental was distinguished by the superb servicies of the rental manager and her staff...responding to questions, giving instructions and providing extra services such as arranging rental car.

We recently stayed in one of the Blue Emerald apartments on the Blue Bay Resort in Curacao. A spacious apartment with wonderful sea views. A couple of things that we think can/need to be improved: 1. Once a week housekeeping simply is not enough. 2. The shower in the master bathroom is extremely dirty, especially mould both on the wall tiles and on the floor tiles. We know it is an expense, but we think that replacing the shower and fresh tiling will make a heck of a difference. 3. Grouting of the floor tiles in general is not good anymore; it is disintegrating and that means that the dirty water will remain in the grouts. No really easy solutions for those problems! Swimming pool is beautiful, though quite small. Would we return? Probably yes.

We stayed in this same building about 5 months ago in a 3 bedroom so we have something to compare this 2 bedroom to. Reservations were easy and it was easy and quick to communicate with the owner. As expected the location is spectacular. The layout, flooring, most furniture and bathrooms were almost identical to the 3 bedroom. This unit simply was not up to the high standards of the prior unit. The prior unit was very well furnished, it had pictures on the walls, flowers in the unit, plug adapters at every outlet, tons of kitchen utensils and pots/pans. It was very close to staying in a 5 star property. This 2 bedroom, aside from the spectacular location and views from the balcony, was a letdown. One of the 2 airconditioners in the kitchen/dining/living space did not work. There was the bare minimum of kitchen items. I contacted the owner to raise the concern about missing all wash cloths and hand towels and to her credit they were brought in the next day. Almost all of the light fixtures seemed dark and when I brought this to the attention of the staff member from a Blue Bay who came by to check us in she blamed the owner for only having 1 bulb in each fixture to save electricity. This same person told me, when I raised the issue, the balcony should have had 2 lounge chairs but they broke a few days prior and when they notified the owner the owner said she would take care of it next month when she visits. I sent a message to the owner about the missing lounge chairs and within a day they were replaced, although with less expensive plastic loungers without any cushions. Not sure if the on site manager or the owner is not being truthful. The TV in the bedroom did not work. The hair dryer has a US style 110 volt plug but there were no adapters provided in the unit. We told the on site manager about a lot of tiny ants in the kitchen and she did immediately send someone by with some ant killer. I asked about paper towels to wipe away the ants and she told me that I would have to purchase this. The washer and the dish washer each had 1 pod each. There were no beach toys. Again, the owner was very helpful. It this unit was really bare bones (the bedding was hard as a rock and not of high quality). The prior had everything you could want. For only a few hundred dollars this owner of the w bedroom can elevate her standards. I think a lot has to do with the on-site manager. This owner appears to use the Blue Bay staff.

Very nice location. Apartment clean, balcony could do with a little work. Broken sunbathing chair, floor made feet black. One of the ACs in living room did not work. Property managers had been aware, but we were not notified. Waiting for approval of board to change ac.

Blue Bay resort is terrific for beach, swimming, snorkeling, and diving. The restaurants proved to be of consistently high quality both with ingredients and preparation. The wait staff was attentive to individual requests. The location of the apartment could not have been better, next to the beach, the restaurants, and the pool. The apartment itself was good. I would suggest some kitchen additions: microwave, blender, cooking utensils, juicer, measuring spoons, barware, and additional skillets and sauce pans. These additions would permit more at home cooking with the fresh fruits,vegetables, and fish found at the grocery store. We truly enjoyed ourselves. .
