Staff go beyond to be of assistance. Safe secure property. Great location to tour within Willemstad. Easy to get to Blue Bay, tour Hato Caves, historical museums. Good proximity to grocery stores. You do need a rental car on this island.

Budget level accomodation at budget level price
The apartments are in the centre of the island, and while not far from bus routes, I would not recomend them without a car. The roads near the hotel and a little unkempt, and some guests may feel a bit nervous if they had to walk around the area at night. A warning from the management to bring your car and park inside adds to this feeling. The inside parking area was tight for space and I had to park with care as the last in on each night of my stay. The room was basic but adequate. The price was cheap which made this understandable. I was pleasantly surprised to have hot water in the shower. A kettle was provided, as well as microwave and fridge. A larger communal kitchen is also there. Wifi is good, a desk was provided, but the chair in the room was broken! It appeared to be ok but collapsed under my weight. Examination showed an old break as well the one from this collapse. I then used a plastic chair from outside. There is a tiny swimming pool, which I did not use, and a small TV in the room which I did not use after the first day The air con was adequate. It was colder when I arrived, but afterwards I could not get it to drop down to a low temperature again. I think the fault was with the controller and not the unit. Staff was friendly and helpful. Prices were exactly as quoted

I loved the nature feel of being between the trees and the bird sounds. The room was very clean. The staff was very accommodating and helpful. I was provided with extra amenities for my baby. It's the perfect place to lay your head if you're going to be out most of the time.

Good value for the money
The staff was very friendly and accommodating, made the stay worth while. The hotel is utilitarian, about what I expected for the money. There was some issue with WiFi during my stay but by the time I mentioned it, they were waiting on the tech to come out to fix. The room was basic but clean. Bed was a little hard and the shower had a very think curtain that did not do much to keep the water in, so the bathroom floor would be soaked. Parking area is very tight. A/C takes a while to get going but room was very comfortable after about 20 min.

Very economical
It was a nice experience, very breezy, like an oasis in the middle of a desert, there was this smell though of oil fumes but not heavy.Very close to the mall, the airport, within half hour from the otrabunda and the beaches.

Visit Curacao.
Nice quite location. The owner‘s will work with you. They offer a rental car. A kitchen is available if you like to cook for yourself. Air-conditioning cost a little extra but it's rated according to your use, so it is inexpensive. Laundry is available at the Hotel. Hot showers. A very quite secure place to stay.

Great Little Hotel off the Beaten Path
Great Hotel, my stay started off with wrong directions from the rental car clerk. Got lost(map from rental company was a joke), so I stopped at roadside Drink vendor. They were not good at directions, so they called Hotel and the owner came right over and I followed him to the Hotel(missed it by two round-a-bouts). The owner was GREAT in every way he made sure I found where I was going each day, and went out of his way to help me with anything I needed. The Hotel was small but Great in every other way. CLEAN, WELL KEPT, SECURE, GREAT WiFi, and EASY TO GET TO. The hotel information stated $7 @day electric fee, but the Owner does a meter reading checking-in and out and charges just what you use. I saved $15 during my stay doing it this way. I'm already planning a return trip to Curacao, with a stay at Apartamentos Cecil Paradise.

Pleasant Atmosphere
I arrived after 9.00 pm. After settling in I was offered to be taken to a mini mart to buy some fruit after I expressed a desire for same. I was taken to the mini mart which was about ten minutes drive away at no extra cost. I found this to be a very nice gesture and was very much appreciated as it made my one night stay at Apartamentos Cecil Paradise all the more agreeable.

Very small hotel in dangerous area
The location of the hotel was very hard to find. Once found the staff were as accommodating as possible however the television was extremely small, I was discouraged from even looking at it. In the bathroom there was no soap, so therefore after my long trip to get there all i could do was rinse off that night, and again only rinse off before another day of even longer flying, since i was laying over for just one night. I have been to many hotels and this one rates at the bottom.

No sleep
It's not too far to the airport and not too far from the city. The problem is the actual neighbor hood, which is an industrial area, with paved roads that are dimpled more than a golf ball. Granted you get through that without a flat tire, finding the place isn't easy, as it's not labeled in anyway, just a small "house number". If you're doing this at night, good luck, it blends in with surrounding buildings. Getting in; not too difficult. There is a gate that you have to open, and then once you're in the front yard, you must ring a bell and wait for someone to assist you. Hope it does not rain. You are then given an access card and a key; the access card is to open a second, locked, gate. The key (which is 1800's style, I believe called a skeleton key), will open your door. Getting in with a car; annoying. Once you've been given a key and would like to park your car, the only place to do so is inside the complex. To do this, you walk in the first gate, then use your access card to open the second gate. You then proceed to the vehicle gate, where you pull out some pins and push the 2 steel doors open. Get in your car, pull in, get out, close the gate. Now you're in an alley. The midsize Kia I had allowed for about 4 inches of clearance on either side in some spots, which is tolerable, but not ideal. Parking is easy, but getting out will required a 7 point turn or reversing through the narrow alley and then working the gate again. Review continues in other section...

Curacao trip
The hotel/room was very clean. The service was excellent, everyone was very helpful and friendly and went out of their way to help find anything I needed on short notice. It served the purpose of being able to sit outside most of the day. Hot shower and ability to cook own food when I wanted to. I rented a car and knew my way around which was great. The hotel is close to everything on the island.

Great first impression of Curacao!
I think this is the most authentic positive Curacao living experience one can have without already knowing a local personally. It reminded me of visiting my Grandparents' homes back in India. Not exactly a resort but undeniably homey - the very definition of paradise.
