Beach is fantastic. Lovely lounge area with shade and loungers, services at both ends of the beach, outstanding swim area behind the breakwater, always clean and well maintained, towels and fresh water always available. Next door mall (Mambo Mall) has many excellent restaurants. Bliss the Berry offers very special healthy breakfasts. Bocas Argentine steak house is first class. Balconies with sea views are brilliant. Top floor is best. Gym is good for weights and floor exercises. We didn't dive on this trip, but we are experienced divers, and the dive operation looked first class.

Room totally lacked decor. Hardly any seating in the room. Gym aerobic equipment was in very poor (unusable) condition. Breakfast was very expensive relative to options available. Room was not good value for money, except for the view...

Room was spacious and well equipped. Great bathrooms with plenty of hot water. Comfortable beds. Quiet room on the whole. Got a suite with stunning ocean view. Lots of space outside. Good ac in all rooms. Breakfast was great with lots of choices. Lovely to have it outside by the sea. Restaurants are moderately priced and serves the usual mix of international dishes with some local additions. Pizza place was the best imo but wasn't open all nights. Hemingway had the best service and location. Good fish and veggie food. Beach is perfect for families. Shallow. Clean. Clear water. The small beach has some snorkling opportunities but boats pass close by. Beach wasn't crowded, service was good and some beach chairs are reserved for hotel guests. All in all, a perfect stay with lovely touches from the staff such as dressing the room on account of honeymoon that we hadn't announced prior to arrival. Very grateful!

- Everything spotless apart from armchairs that were ready for a deep clean. - Nemo, the asian restaurant, failed to impress sadly. - Club night (1 out of the 4 nights we stayed) at Seascape, is pretty loud, even though it's several properties away from Lions.

I recommend (if suits in your budget) to book one of the appartments, either ocean front or even those located at the swimming pool. They are really spacious and very nice 👍🏻 .

Beach and chair access to the outside (non hotel) guests. On certain days it van become very crowded on the “hotel” beach and less chairs are available to the hotel guests. Be aware that some of the rooms (does not apply to the apartments) have shared balconies. If you do not mind, you’ll be okay, if you value more privacy, book an appartement. We were not aware of the shared balconies, didn’t read this information anywhere on the booking when selecting a room but will definitely book an appartement for our next visit as they offer privacy which we value. Also, we were not a fan of the breakfast buffet at Hemingway’s, we would have appreciated a higher quality a la carte breakfast if that option was available.

Location was great. Nice beach, with a breakwater and some fish to see when snorkeling. 15 min drive to Tugboat Beach which had amazing snorkeling - that was a highlight. Lots of shops/restaurants on Mambo Beach next to hotel. Hotel doesn't currently have a gym, but gave passes to an actual gym located along the Mambo Beach shops, so that is better than usual. Everything was well maintained. Bed was very comfortable. Staff were friendly.

I have no significant complaints about the hotel. Towel replacement was not totally consistent, although the rest of the room cleaning was fine. The restaurants at the hotel were ok, but kinda middle of the road. Didn't have much when we wanted a really nice meal, nor a really simple one. Beer selection was lager, lager or lager. Restaurants along Mambo beach gave a bit more variety, but there were some much nicer ones in the Pietermaai area (less than 10 min drive). The Punda area was really touristy.

Everything was wonderful— the beach, the pools, the views, the food. It is a great spot for little kids too. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The restaurants in the area were all tasty and the shuttles to the supermarket or to Willemstad were very convenient. We even participated in the beach boot camp which was awesome!! We loved that the aquarium was right beside the property too! One of the highlights for the kids.

Towels service and clean up could have been better. We often found that our rooms weren’t clean at the end of the day until dinner time and there was a couple of days where we didn’t have towels in our room at all. Willemstad was a a nice day visit but VERY touristy, especially if you are there at the same time as the cruises. The shuttle drops you off from 9-1 but we didn’t find we needed that long so we took a taxi back. It is very safe.

Restaurants where you can eat /drink with your feet in the sand are wonderful! Omelets, grilled cheese, and fruit bowls are available after 9am for half of the buffet breakfast price. Protected beach is fantastic, with okay snorkeling, but water shoes are helpful due to coral. Beach is close to beachfront rooms. Shelters and palm trees helped shade, when necessary. Free transportation to Willemstad in the morning to visit museums, stores, restaurants, and attractions.

I loved this resort. I could easily spend a few weeks there if everything wasn't so expensive. Euro pillows were very plump, giving me a stiff neck. Lack of outdoor sand removal foot washes made not bringing some sand into the room impossible.

The location is second to none! Located on the beach with a 50m pool and four restaurants in the premises. Beautiful tropical garden too. The staff of the hotel are very friendly, cheerful and helpful. We felt really welcome. On arrival in our room we found a complimentary beach bag and LD water bottles. Just fantastic! Children activities are organized, which was great. Also offered are a walk through the zoutpannen with the lovely general manager and free yoga/bootcamps. The hotel is right next to Mambo beach, if you like to stroll and shop. All in all an amazing stay!

Made a (confirmed) reservation at the Spa but when I arrived they were booked. Apparantly they accepted a guest who had not made a booking and took my spot. After talking to the manager I was rescheduled and promised a complimentary treatment later during the week. She would mail me about it but haven't heard again. I may not have used it however I feel a promise should be kept.

Compared to other tourist destinations, Curaçao seemed distinctly non-exploitative. Our servers, tour operators, and taxi drivers were all well educated and comfortable - they mentioned being able to take their own vacations. As an emerging tourist economy moving away from oil, everyone gave the impression they appreciated rather than resented a tourist presence. At LionsDive, the focus on sustainability was cool. From reusables to discouraging waste to solar power to complimentary reef safe sunscreen, it was cool to see them leaning into what it takes to preserve the island. They had a green key certification and everything! Location near the aquarium and shops/restaurants were nice, plus the dive shop on-site. We also felt that the included nature hike/snorkel was a great added value. We also enjoyed the massage from the spa, but it felt a bit pricey.

The restaurants on-site were convenient but just okay in terms of food. I felt like they were trying to offer what tourists expected in terms of variety instead of specializing. There was extremely limited access to anything like a convenience store and NOTHING is open before 7:00, making it hard to get to early adventures on time and fed. I would have brought snacky type breakfast stuff or opted for the room add-on to have groceries delivered if I had known. I left margin in our plans for spontaneity, but things were pretty booked at the resort and other places nearby by the time we got there. While I usually over plan and wish there was more time to see what's fun when I arrive, I would recommend planning in advance here.

Buffet breakfast excellent. AC good. Bathroom good. Snorkeling great. Shuttles good. Beach clean. Public restrooms clean. Mattress great. $$ exchange service great. Flavors ice cream (except more choices for soft serve I have tree nut allergies and couldn’t try anything else because of cross contamination). Slushies & daiquiris excellent. No bugs GREAT!

More places to refill cold water. More shaded areas on beach. Additional shuttles and choices of pick up time. More items in gift shop. Chill poor service and poor food (raw burger). More live music.

lack of visibility on breakfast price upon arrival
