| We had a wonderful time at Papagayo - an "eco-resort" on the Southern Shore of Curacao. Perfect for families (or anyone for that matter), the resort is made of of 75 or so villas, each with two bedrooms, two baths, and a spacious living room and kitchen combination. The living room has moveable walls that open up to a beautiful porch and Cactus Gardens. There is cable TV in each living room. These are tropical villas, beatifully designed with modern all wood and wicker decor. The bedrooms are air-conditioned and there is a large ceiling fan in the living room. The tropical breezes on the Island are a pleasure. Plus there is a great hammock on each villa porch. The resort as a whole is very well kept, with a lovely swimming pool, a great restaurant with wonderful food and excellent security. It sits right across the road from Jan Thiel Beach, one of the most popular beaches on the Island. Jan Thiel has an excellent dive shop with complete scuba and snorkling rentals, a large children's pool and a fine restaurant - Zanzibar. The best snorkling site in the Island is five minutes away by car and the capital city is about ten minutes away. It is a great location. We loved the Island and we loved Papagayo. Most of the guests were Dutch - we went in the off-season (late August) - the weather was beautiful and the price was very reasonable. A great value and a great place to vacation.

| We stayed for 10 days over Christmas 2004 and thoroughly enjoyed it. The villas are beautiful and feel very "Caribbean", are relatively new and well-maintained, great layout, particularly beautiful are wrap-around porches with hammock and dinner table and the two walls of floor-to-ceiling shutters that create open-air pavilion in living room when opened. Americans in particular will feel very comfortable here as the villas are very high quality. Resort faces west and has beautiful sunsets from villas and from Jan Thiel Beach. Great location for families with children--Jan Thiel Beach has no surf and has a protected wading area and small water-park area ideal for young children. Older children will enjoy swimming to the dock offshore and the superb snorkeling on Jan Thiel reef just 50 feet from shore. My family and I highly recommend Papagayo and Curacao.

| Not right on the beach but across the road but higher than the road so ocean views are ok. Nice staff. need a car long way from town. dive shop on jan beach is only good for sjhore dives make arrangements with ones that have their own fleet of decent sixe boats. Two beadroom layout is nice. avoid rainny season since humidity gets high and misquitos come out
