We chose this hotel because traveling with 2 older (11 & 15) children is very diffiult in merely a hotel room. Papagayo gave us the space to really sreead out and be comfortable. We had 2 bedrooms and 2 baths which made cleaning up quick to do. We also enjoy having the "luxury" to wake up and have a pot... more

This was our first trip to Curacao, although we have visited other Caribbean locales such as St. Barthelemy, Aruba, Belize. We chose The Papagayo Beach Resort near Caracasbaai (nothing is an easy drive from the airport however) on the southeast coast, based on other reviews, location, their website pictures, and price. What a wonder choice we made! The service from... more

This place is paradise. The architecture is beautiful: half Sumatran, half Caribbean bungalow, all in impeccable taste. Everything is understated, nothing tacky. Our bungalow was amazing, with sunset views of the sea. The wrap around veranda with hammock was great for reading, and for kids playing, all surrounded by a manicured tropical garden. The main restaurant has a top Belgian... more

Well, I have travel all over the world and I have never had an experience quite like my stay at Papgayo Beach Resort in Curacao. First, I must say Curacao is a beautiful, small, quaint place with beautiful people and beautiful beaches. Be careful where you stay. We arrived at Hato Airport 1/19/06 only to realize there's no shuttle from... more

We just returned from a week in Curacao, and stayed at the Papagayo Beach Resort. The cottages were lovely-- stylish, simple and spacious. It took a while to get used to the defenestered main room, mainly because it took a while to adjust to the heat--evenings and mornings were fine (though mosquitos feasted on us at night--the resort did provide... more

We enjoyed Papagayo's design with verandas and open living areas. We shared our breakfast with sugar-stealing bananaquits and were tempted to take the bananas off the nearest tree. Our unit was advertised as a garden-view, but we were able to see the water and enjoy the sunsets too. Although we were an adult group, many of the other residents were... more

My wife and I, with our three children, just returned from a week at Papagayo Beach Resort. On their website they say that the electrical current is both 220v and 110v. This is not correct. They have only 220v service. So plan on taking your converter. They loaned us a converter, but it looked like it was 20 years old.... more

We stayed at Papagayo for five days in early November 2004. I recommend the resort for anyone looking for a quiet, comfortable, and surprisingly private base for exploring Curacao as well as for just decompressing. A short walk takes you to Jan Thiel beach where you can enjoy the Caribbean, swim and snorkel, and even have a restaurant meal. Papagayo... more

Our family of three spent Thanksgiving week at the Papagayo and loved it. We recommend it to anyone who wants a comfortable place to relax with the family. It is the perfect destination for a quiet family vacation. The bungalows are exactly as pictured on their website, clean and comfortable! And finding a hammock stretched across our porch was a... more
