Pros: Beautiful weather, friendly people, great for exploring, perfect for those seeking a quiet getaway!! Cons: Rain will keep you bored, taxis & gratuities are confusing, Customs in Miami was nuts!
We never heard of Curacao until my wife and I started looking into a honeymoon. We both agreed that after the stresses that come with planning a wedding, we wanted a quiet, relaxing destination with plenty of sunshine and a reasonable degree of...
Pros: Unmatched beauty and not heavily touristy in December! Cons: Americans with unrealistic expectations! It's not Aruba!!1t
My parents had made a trip to this foreign island called Curacao...we certainly had never heard of it! They raved for weeks and weeks about everything from the weather to the people and we never imagined that the following Christmas my folks would go ...
Pros: The food, the wonderful warm gentle ocean, and the welcoming smiles from the very hospitable people of Curacao. Cons: Curcao was the hottest Caribbean Island I have ever visited, and I was just dismayed at the number of stray dogs and cats, many pitiffuly scarred with mange and painfully thin. This is something that bothers me everywhere I go.
Review Topic: Overview
The funniest thing I saw in Curacao was two Arab women swimming, snorkeling, actually fully covered in long black dresses and white, tightly bound headscarves. Their snorkels were lime green, and they...
Pros: Perfect weather, good prices, not overcrowded, not commercialized, USD widely accepted, English spoken Cons: Not many airlines fly there
My husband and I honeymooned in Curacao in March 2003. Why did we choose Curacao as our destination? Well, it is Caribbean culture mixed with European culture, and there were historical sights and shopping and dining along with beach-related activities. ...
Pros: diving,value,out of hurricane belt,weather,food,drinks,people,warm water Cons: return tickets 'missing'from room,check in
Went to Breezes Curacao for the first week of October 2002
Had a great time. Weather was wonderful, just rained a couple of times, just for a few minutes. Grounds of Breezes has been remodeled. Rooms still need work, but they were clean. Standard...
Pros: It's beautiful and very unlike your typical Caribbean Vacation Cons: Things are a little slower here
My fiancee and I have the same birthday (June 19) and we make it a habit to be "unavailable" on that particular date. So to make a long story short - we travel - preferrably out of the country. On this particular birthday (2001) we chose and mix of...
Pros: Great diversity in action...Warm Caribbean human feelings.. Cons: No great beaches like other islands...Sunburn, sea urchins, and jelly fish
Located below the hurricane belt, Curacao is out of the rage of hurricanes which roam over most Caribbean islands. You can visit Curacao any time because temperature (82F) is never a problem. It has low humidity due to the constant trade of winds....
Pros: exciting, unique, an adventure! Cons: not for the scared
As part of our cruise this January, we stopped at Curacao as one of our ports. We decided to do the "Animal Encounters" as an excursion. This tour took us to the Seaquarium. On the outside it didn't look like much, but inside was a different...
Pros: Excellent descriptions; open air pools. Cons: Dated.
The Seaquarium deserves special mention because of its uniqueness in all the Caribbean. Located at Lion's Dive Hotel, one crosses a short bridge to the island which houses the complex. The Seaquarium is a semi-open air facility with 46 tanks showing...
Pros: Seaquarium - swim with dolphins, clear waters good for snorkeling/diving, Indonesian restaurant Cons: Starving dogs, garbage and unfinished construction everywhere
This was our first Caribbean vacation and I have to say, I was more shocked and disgusted than happy to be there. I guess we expected Hawaii-like surroundings and it was hard to see past all the garbage, construction, dilapidated houses, and most of all t ...
Pros: Weather, Sea Life, Slow Pace Cons: Expensive
If you've been to the usual suspects in the Caribbean and want to try something a little different, Curacao might be the place. You'll fly into Willemstad, the capital, a town of pastels and red roofs. Because it's dry and outside the hurricane belt,...
Pros: the sun is always shining, the island is clean, safe and the tap is delicious. Cons: there are none I could find

Pros: weather, wind, people Cons: sometimes a little dirty in the inlands, with car wrecks and so
I lived in Curaçao for half a year and it was fun. There are lots of hotels and nice bars, especially down town, which is called Punda and Otro Banda (which means 'other side'. You can go by the famous floating bridge from Punda to Otro Banda and is a...
While in the Navy, I went to this island paradise. It was a great place for a person to turn 20. I turned 20 just after leaving the island and I couldn't have asked for a better place to be at.
There is a lot of great things to do if you are...
