Your Serene Caribbean Escape in Westpunt, Curaçao

A private top-floor retreat in a freestanding two-story building steps from the water, with your own separate entrance — the seclusion of a villa with the ease of a managed resort.

Blue Tide sits inside Punta Azul, a small, colorful gated community on Curaçao's quiet western edge, with direct water access via steps, a pool, an outdoor shower, and a sunset-facing sitting area at the water's edge. Your private balcony with table and chairs is where mornings happen. Inside: two bedrooms (each with a queen bed, sleeps 4), two bathrooms, full kitchen, washer/dryer, and AC throughout.

Outside the community is Westpunt — the part of the island serious divers and snorkelers seek out, and where you get a feel for the real Curaçao. The marine life is world-class, and Curaçao's most beautiful beaches (Grote Knip, Kleine Knip, Playa Kalki) are minutes away. Playa Piskado — a short walk away — is one of the best places on the island to swim with sea turtles. Christoffel and Shete Boka National Parks are close by, as are several dive centers. When you're ready to eat, the area has some of the island's best local restaurants — laid-back spots where you might end up chatting with the owner or a local. No crowds. No noise. Just wilderness and water.

This apartment offers its guests an outdoor pool and laundry facilities. The front desk is open around the clock.

This Sabana Westpunt apartment is smoke free.
