Rating: 5/5 • Date: March, 2026  By: Sara, Canada  Platform: Airbnb  Apt.: 18 Comments: We had a wonderful stay at Jacob’s place. It was exactly as described, and the views, cliffside lounge area, and pool are even more stunning in person.
We enjoyed snorkeling right off the cliffside dock each morning and the easy swim to Playa Lagun. In the evenings there was a lovely sense of community with everyone watching the sunset with a cocktail. We even saw a pod of dolphins swim right off the dock.
There are 2 nearby restaurants with great food. The airbnb kitchen is simple, but has all you need. During the day we explored different beaches. Our favourites were Klein Knip (10 min drive) & Playa Jeremi (4min drive). We also visited beaches in the south, but found them too busy.
I was worried about the lack of a/c downstairs, but it turned out not to be an issue at all. With the patio door open and the fan on, there was a nice breeze, even for my husband who is quite sensitive to heat. The bedroom a/c works perfectly.
We would highly recommend staying here!


Rating: 5/5 • Date: March 2026  By: Steve, Ottawa, Canada  Platform: Airbnb  Apt.: 19 Comments: Loved Jacob's place. Well equipped apartment with everything for cooking (previous occupants may leave a few items but expect to being your own salt/pepper/spices/oil etc to be sure). has Nespresso machine. Very quiet day and night. Secure, gated parking. Beautiful location with direct access to pool, snorkel/dive platform. 5 minute walk to 2 restaurants at the beach, and just another 5 minutes walk to local bar/restaurant (DiBarrio) for much cheaper drinks and great BBQ meat plates. Highly recommended - would definitely return!

Rating: 5/5 • Date: February, 2026  By: Pedro, Cartagena, Spain  Platform: Airbnb  Apt.: 18 • Comments (Translated): Very spacious and comfortable apartment in a charming location—without a doubt one of the most beautiful areas on the island and the best for snorkeling. It's a very peaceful spot; there are few services nearby, but enough. We had a wonderful experience. Cecilia, the manager, is a total sweetheart and goes above and beyond to help with everything she can. Totally recommended! 

(Original version) Apartamento muy espacioso y cómodo en un lugar encantador, sin duda una de las zonas mas bonitas de la isla y la mejor para hacer snorkel. sitio muy tranquilo, pocos servicios cerca pero suficientes. nos llevamos una muy grata experiencia. Cecilia, la encargada del lugar, es todo un encanto y se desvive por ayudar en todo cuanto esté en su mano. totalmente recomendable.


Rating: 10/10 • Date: January, 2026  By: Laila, Sweden  Platform: Booking.com  Apt.: 19 Comments (Translated): One of the most beautiful places we have ever been to! The environment, the view, and all the places we could sit throughout the area! Can warmly recommend this place!

(Original version) Ett av vackraste ställen vi varit på! Miljön, utsikten och alla platser vi kunde sitta på i området! Kan varmt rekomendera detta ställe!


Rating: 10/10 • Date: December, 2026 By: Pedro, Brasil  Platform: Booking.com Apt.: 19 Comments (Translated): Practically everything was great. There were mosquitoes, but the apartment was equipped with repellent candles. It was a pity we only spotted them halfway through our stay!

(Original version) Praticamente tudo otimo. Mosquitoss. Mas no apartamento tinha uma especie de vela repelente. Pena que só vimos no meio da hospedagem.


Rating: 5/5 • Date: December, 2025  By: Anne, Salisbury, North Carolina, U.S.A.  Platform: Airbnb  Apt.: 19 Comments: Highly recommend this stay. This was our first trip to Curaçao, and we quickly fell in love with the clear water and a perfect place to enjoy it. Jacob was responsive and shared clear directions and tips through his website, making the property easy to find. The area is more remote than Willemstad, so a rental car a must for exploring. The condo was spacious, very clean, and had beautiful ocean views. Daily service was provided, and the resort staff was helpful. The oceanside area was quiet and relaxing with ocean-view pool, shaded seating, lounge chairs, and stairs to dock/ladder directly into the water. Resort had restaurant and a dive shop with a supermarket and other dining 15+ minutes away. We loved the proximity to several of Curaçao’s most beautiful beaches and snorkeling spots. We snorkeled from the dock to Lagun Beach multiple times, like swimming in a clear aquarium. Grote Knip-stunning water, and we swam sea turtles at Playa Piskado. We would definitely stay again!


Rating: 5/5 • Date: December, 2025 By: Carlito, Amersfoort, the Netherlands  Platform: www.lagunblou-18-19.com  Apt.: 18 Comments (Translated): A hidden pearl. Stayed for two weeks in November in Bungalow 18 with a sea view! What a special place—the peace, the silence, truly phenomenal! Beautiful resort; a rustic spot has been created with an eye for small details. Waking up every morning with a view of the sea, then immediately taking a wonderful dip from the pier at the bottom of the rocks. We were also very pleased to find mostly local people at the beaches and restaurants on this side of the island. Truly a hidden gem!

(Original version): E perla skondi! In November twee weken verbleven in Bungalow 18 met zeezicht! Wat een bijzondere plek, de rust, de stilte, echt fenomenaal! Mooi resort, er is met gevoel voor kleine details een rustieke plek gerealiseerd. Elke ochtend wakker worden met uitzicht op zee, daarna direct een heerlijke duik nemen vanaf de steiger onderaan de rotsen. Zeer verheugd waren we ook dat we vooral veel lokale mensen troffen bij stranden en restaurants aan deze kant van het eiland. Met recht een verborgen parel!

Rating: 4/5 • Date: September, 2025 By: Kurt, Austin, Texas, U.S.A.  Platform: Airbnb  Apt.: 18 Comments: Great location, beautiful setting, landscaping, swimming area & sunsets. Easy walk to Playa Lagun & drive to northern national parks. No air conditioning in downstairs (only in upstairs bedroom), which made it hard to spend time in the kitchen & living room. Kitchen had limited options for cooking (little cookware, no oven). 2 nice pools (1 large & 1 small). Felt very safe and on-site management was very helpful & friendly. Great snorkeling. Beautiful setting is the trade off for the few negatives.
