Villa getaway

We had booked a 2 bedroom villa for our family at Livingstone Jan Thiel and it was the perfect stay! Very spacious and clean. Loved the terrace area, we had breakfast every morning out there. Had all the basic necessities. Resort is quite large so it was a bit confusing navigating through it to get to our villa sometimes but they do give you a map. Close to the beach with lots of restaurants. Supermarket right across the street but I found it was a bit expensive compared to orhers. We will definitely stay here when we visit Curacao again!

Our stay was very enjoyable, and we had a great time. We appreciated being able to walk to the beach and the supermarket whenever we needed something. Our only suggestion is to replace the mattresses, as two out of the three bedrooms in our villa had mattresses with noticeable dips, which caused some back pain. We didn’t complain since it was just a weekend stay, but despite that inconvenience, we had a wonderful experience with a beautiful view. We would definitely come back!

There was mold in one of our rooms and had no bath towels. They sent maintenence to clean the mold - he tried to wipe it off but it didnt come off and front desk didnt care. We also had no bath towels and when we asked they said to use what we had in the room - hand towels. So we had to use the same small hand towels for 3 days before getting regular bath towels. Interior is very plain, but the outside of the property was nice and we did enjoy the outside seating area of our villa. Overpriced budget property but with a nice exterior and good location.

Location

The proximity to Jan Thiel beach and restaurants is perfect. There is also a grocery store 5 minutes walk which was very convenient. We found both pool areas very nice, but the main pool seating arrangements are mostly cabanas, so we found there was a shortage of loungers most days. We are at the restaurant for lunch and one breakfast. The food was just okay. The staff were all amazing, very friendly and helpful. We stayed in a deluxe apartment and really enjoyed the balcony. There are stairs and no elevator, so a little tough getting the luggage up and down but it’s manageable. We did need a converter to charge anything in our room. Plenty of parking around the resort. Overall it was a pleasant stay!
