    We have been staying at Sun Reef Village since 2002, at which point, there was an absentee owner and the place was a bit of a wreck. The current owners, Wim and Lies, took over in 2004 and they have been making vast improvements ever since. The “village” consists of ten bungalows, five of which are situated on a cliff above the crystal clear Caribbean waters. The other five are situated within the property’s gardens. The waterfront units feature ladders to access the sea and there are also communal decks with ladders so that those people with a garden unit can also enjoy a swim. The units range from one, two or three bedrooms and all are equipped with full kitchens. Each bungalow has an alarm system and the village itself sits behind a high wall, making security a non-issue. The owners have a number of cars that you may rent from them and there is a parking lot in which you may park their rental car. Should you decide to rent a car at the airport, Sun Reef will not guarantee that you’ll have a spot in their lot, as their cars have first priority. The prices are very reasonable, considering that you are visiting a tourist destination. And there are benefits to be enjoyed here that no Marriott and few other vacation rentals will afford you. The peace and quiet of this place, the serenity, cannot be overstated. The loveliness is very nearly impossible to put into words. And your hosts, Wim and Lies, are two extremely nice people, who will do everything in their power to make sure that you enjoy a wonderful stay with them. We just finished a three-week visit to Sun Reef and we had a fabulous time. The issue with Covid felt like it was non-existent, as the island is very safe right now, with an incredibly low number of cases. We were able to freely go everywhere on the island without a mask, except for the grocery store, and that is a tremendous feeling these days. We urge everyone who is looking to enjoy a safe and relaxing vacation to try a stay at Sun Reef Village. You definitely will not be disappointed!

    Had a wonderful Thanksgiving weekend stay at sun reef village on the sea. Since it's West facing, the sunsets are absolutely stunning. Snorkeling/diving right off the cliff. Great owners, just an amazing stay.

    Had an amazing stay with girlfriend and friends and felt home...great location for independent holidays in the Caribbean, very welcoming hosts and great bungalows. The resort also offers car rental and has an integrated dive school. Close to Willemstad and the Airport but at a quiet location directly at the sea. Would return and recommend to stay there without hesitation.

    If you are looking for a great place to relax with an amazing view than sun reef is for you. The sea view is breath taking, the rooms have a colonial ambience and enough space for privacy. Very friendly employees who always greet you with a smile. Easy communications across all their platforms. The bungalows are very spacious to our surprise. There is enough shade to cool of between the trees, two cats and a parrot who will keep you company in the main yard. There is a main platform from which you can cliff jump into the sea or just use the ladder. Snorkling or diving is a must, because you will enjoy the underwater scenery. Only downside were the soft mattresses.. too soft for my liking. Also that the gardenner came by our bungalow to water the plants and woke us up while we were having a siesta. I understand it's his job, but still he could have been considerate to our siesta time. Don't let these two cons keep you from enjoying this paradise alongside the sea. I guarrantee you won't regret it.

    After being forced by COVID-19 to leave the country in March 2020, we finally made it back. As soon as air travel allowed flights to Curacao, we were on that plane! Wim and Lies (and their staff) have taken advantage of the “down time” and completed many improvements to the apartments . They are absolutely BEAUTIFUL! - so bright and cheerful. We felt very comfortable and safe dining out at the “open air” restaurants during our 3 week visit. We were so sad to leave, but will rush back in October to enjoy our “home away from home.” 😏

    Even though we stayed only few nights in one of the ocean front bungalows, it was very pleasurable stay. It has this family atmosphere with Liesbeth and her staff being so kind and nice all the time. The dive center located there has the same mindset with skillful and positive people helping you all the way. Thank you for having us.

    This is a great place to enjoy your Curacao holiday. The location is ideal, only 15 minutes from the airport and in the middle of the island so you can easily visit beaches and sites on both ends of island from here. They offer car rentals which is a definite must anywhere on Curacao. The houses themselves are perfect, very spacious and equipped with everything you need. The bedrooms have air conditioning. The service from the owners and staff is outstanding too, always available to help. The one and only downside are the mosquitos, but that’s what you get when you want a place right next to the sea. When we decide to visit Curacao again we will definitely be back!

    (Translated by Google) Basically nothing to complain about: Nice and helpful owners (a mosquito net fixed on arrival), friendly staff, good location and facilities ... the downer: you have to fully trust the staff when calculating operating costs and after departure, the willingness to help decreases a bit (Despite repeated inquiries, no invoice was received in order to be able to settle a claim with the insurance company). Still recommended (doesn't break anything .. :-D) (Original) Grundsätzlich nix zu meckern: Nette und hilfsbereite Eigentümer (bei Anreise fix noch ein Moskitonetz montiert), freundliches Personal, gute Lage und Ausstattung... Wermutstropfen: bei der Betriebskostenabrechnung muss man voll auf das Personal vertrauen und nach Abreise nimmt die Hilfsbereitschaft doch etwas ab (trotz mehfacher Nachfrage keine Rechnung erhalten, um Schadensfall bei der Versicherung regeln zu können). Trotzdem empfehlenswert (macht halt nix kaputt .. :-D )

    Die Lage ist der absolute Hammer! Von unserer Ferienwohnung aus hatten wir einen eigenen Zugang zum Meer. Die Ferienwohnung ist mit allem ausgestattet und sehr geräumig. Das Bett ist der Himmel. Die Betreiberfamilie ist super nett und hilfsbereit. Es geht nicht besser! Absolut uneingeschränkt zu empfehlen! Danke für die wundervolle Zeit! (Translated by Google) The location is absolutely amazing! From our apartment we had our own access to the sea. The apartment is fully equipped and very spacious. The bed is heaven. The operator family is super nice and helpful. It doesn't get any better! Absolutely unreservedly recommended! Thanks for the wonderful time!
