Breathtaking views

Amazing views. Great location. Close to Cas Abou beach. Two bedrooms on the main floor. Three bedrooms on the lower level. Not good for anyone handicapped or small children. Don’t forget bug spray. Kitchen was well equipped. Neither of the sliding doors locked. Large gate must manually be opened and closed every time you enter and leave. Adaptors not needed. Will definitely return to this beautiful villa. Loved the location. Rented car from Just Drive Curacao. They provided great customer service and very reasonable. We paid cash for the car rental.

This place has everything, it is located in the best neighborhood next to the most beautiful beach. Els is an amazing host and Hilde was available for any questions or needs that came up.

What a View!

We were 7 friends staying in this beautiful property. The common area to eat with that spectacular view was incredible. We spent most of our time there. Els was very easy to work with and very accommodating. We had a great time. We just wished the common area in the living room had AC for the nights we wanted to escape the bugs. Overall we had enjoyed our stay very much! And we all fell in love with the 3 cats on the property that come every morning to eat from their bowl by the pool. ;)

Amazing Unforgettable Experience!

Everything on Barbulette is awesome! The grandiose villa boasts a comfortable layout, perfect for accommodating a large group. Imagine relaxing by the ocean-facing pool, with playful pink flamingos gracing your porch. This idyllic location puts you within easy reach of Curaçao's most stunning beaches, including the breathtaking Cas Abao, renowned for its exceptional snorkeling experiences, and the picturesque Westpunt beaches where you can even swim with turtles.

Never disappoints

I would love to give this property a 1 star rating so it would always be available when we want to stay here!!! The home is perfect for a small group that want to relax and enjoy the weather, the pool and the nearby beaches. If it's night-life you're looking for this is not it - quiet, secluded and so beautiful. We were saddened to hear of Ronald's passing and send our condolences to Els.

Best Vacation of the decade

We love visiting Caribbean islands and have been traveling a lot but this villa Barbulette is super special and state of architectural art. Spacious incredibly ergonomic and just simple beautiful with pool facing the spectacular ocean view that is one of the kind in Curasao and pink flamingos visiting you daily in lagun. Amazing! Booked already for next time.

Gorgeous views and safe neighborhood

I would unconditionally recommend this house for your Curacao vacation. The view was wonderful. There are so many activities to do in Curacao and the people are great. The only issue would be the bugs. The house has everything you need to cook the meals you may want during your stay, but with the number of good restaurants around you might not want to cook.

We loved the villa. So much space to spread out, and spectacular views.

Bedrooms all have individual access and 2 are on one floor and 3 on another floor with access from outside only. The balcony was like in a movie. Could use more towels per room, fans in the great rooms where there is no ac and master bath did not drain well. All of that is minor, the house is really spectacular.

Recommended. Enjoyed our stay.

Good communication. Entry procedures were as described. House is nice and also unique. One thing to know is that it is basically all open air upstairs where the main common area is located. Was plenty of breeze and we were comfortable. We spent most of our time at the upper outdoor table area or at the pool. Bedrooms do have AC. Bedrooms are split between floors, which worked well for use. Pool was clean. Not a single problem or issue.

A decent stay

The property is nice enough, if not a little run down. The hosts were very easy to communicate with when things went wrong, which unfortunately happened more than once. They were prompt to investigate any issues. One complaint is that the "king beds" were two small twins pushed together with no support so they would frequently spread apart. Otherwise, the pool was nice and views were spectacular. It was lovely to enjoy the view and the breeze in the outdoor dining area.

Beautiful Pool and Incredible Views

We loved the pool, the palapa, decks and the spaciousness of the property. We enjoyed a walk and a snorkle at the 'private beach'. We had difficulty getting some of the appliances to work properly and the kitchen faucet to supply hot water. We never did find a manual on the faucet and the property manager had to look it up on line. Basically you pull down a ring at the base of the faucet until a red light appears, then turn the ring and boiling hot water would come from the faucet for a minute or two. The property was large for just 2 couples, but the pool and outside decks were absolutely worth it!!

The views are stunning!

The home was in good condition and the setting was fantastic, the views are out of this world. While the location was fantastic I just wish the description was a bit more detailed regarding the layout, we are a family of 6 and didn’t realize all of the bedrooms apart from the master are only accessible from the outside of the home. This made it a bit of a challenge with little ones. Additionally I would encourage the owners to provide fans for the un air conditioned spaces of the home and the kitchen and family room for incredibly hot at times with no breeze outside. Lastly I wish the property had screens on all the openings as the bugs and were out and biting when the wind was low.

Great House!

We were a group of 6 adults who recently stayed at Villa Barbulete. House was beautiful and well equipped. We utilized the bedrooms that enabled each couple to have their own private bathroom, and this gave us all total privacy. View from the upper deck was incredible and we spent time in the day watching boats in the sea, and every evening watching spectacular sunsets. Pool was warm and we spent many hours just soaking in it. Els and Ronald were very responsive in answering our questions about the house layout and changing our booking for us when our airline cancelled our original flights. My only complaint, and I know that this has no reflection on them, is that the noseeums were insane. Despite the noseeums, we had a wonderful vacation and if we return to Curacao, would stay at this house again.

Fantastic Views, Wonderful Lanai, But had some issues

This property is indeed on the edge of a cliff with magnificent views of the Caribbean Sea. The lanai runs the full width of th house and has a table for 8, chairs and a sofa. Down one level is the pool area, which is very nice.The house has 5 bedrooms, but only the master bedroom is accessablle from inside the main living area.The kitchen is on one end, with a bar that seats 4. There is a long open space, then a couch and TV . Missing a dining table. This long space has 2 sets of sliding glass doors, each with 3 panes of glass that look out to the lanai and the ocean, however there is no seating inside in this living space that faces the ocean. The reason one would want to sit inside is the "no see um" bugs are very active at sunrise and sunset. We got large red bite marks that itched night and day for a couple of days. Bug spray with Deet was marginally effective.Air conditioning only in the Master Bedroom & 1 or 2 other bedrooms. No AC and No Fan in the main living space. No screens on the sliding glass doors. You can open the doors to get a breeze, but then you get the bugs too. Only had 1 beach, 1 bath, 1 hand towel, and 1 wash cloth per person for the week. Towels were worn. Expected more and better. Dryer was brokenGate on driveway is very heavy to open and shut. Needs repair. Just my wife and I made the trip, but not good for families with small children - low railings - high cliff

Beautiful view but had some issues.

The view from this place is great other than that it really needs some things addressed. When we arrived it was very musty and we had to air out directly. The towels and flooring really could have used a good scrub, The front gate did not work at the house so we had to move it manually not really that big of deal, but this property is located on a big cliff. The main areas of the property have no a/c, just bedrooms. These units try to keep up but just not real comfortable. The Wifi did not work at all so no tv or internet access. The beds are actually split twins pushed together it was okay. The garage and cleaning areas were full of ladders and painting supplies. After one night we just could not deal with all the issues so we went and stayed in town the rest of the week. I really wanted to enjoy this place but it really needs some attention.

Beautiful cliff house

We enjoyed our stay here. Hilde was great to get back to us with questions. The only problem we had was the entry gate into the resort. The code we were given did not work. Luckily we had someone coming into the resort as we were trying to leave and he told us the code changes every 6 months and have us the correct code. The gate to the villa does not have a remote, so you are having to pull and push it open each time you want to enter/exit. Very heavy gate to slide manually. We were able to see the flamingos every morning and evening! Very spacious house and super clean. If you are traveling from US, they were plenty of adapters. But no wash cloths for your face and body, so bring those with you! The pool was very dirty, wood at the bottom and didn't look like it had been cleaned for awhile. Even after we skimmed the top, didn't feel comfortable swimming in it. Not a big deal, you have beaches too explore on the island! Bed was comfortable. We only had 2 people so we used the bedroom on the main level. We really enjoyed the outdoor seating areas (3). Gorgeous gardens at the villa. Plenty of dinnerware, etc. It is a 25 min drive if you are going into the city for dinner. Very convenient to the beautiful beaches of Grote Knip and Kleine Knip. We had the best snorkeling here. Check out the beautiful view from Santa Martha Bay which is nearby. And dinner at Tinto Bar y Cocino @ Jan Thiel beach was AMAZING! Sat right at the water. Would stay here again. Thank you!

Villa was fantastic

Let me start by saying that the Villa was amazing, great location with amazing views. We would have given 5 stars but we did encounter a few minor issues. The villa is situated in the middle of the island which provided the ultimate privacy yet only about 30 min drive to the town. The views and layout of the villa were spectacular. Many locations to socialize and other areas where you could get some rest and relaxation when you wanted to find a quiet nook to read and nap. Some problems that we experienced were mostly related to bad or lack thereof instructions. For example, there was no street address when we received the directions for the house 24 hours before check-in causing us to have to drive around the neighborhood until we saw the Villa name. The access into the neighborhood posed a challenge as you have to enter through an electronic gate at certain hours of the day when the security guard is not on duty. Again the directions were not clear on how to enter the code which took some trial and error - however, once we figured it out all was fine. Once you gain access into the villa 2 auto clickers to open the main gate did not work (most likely needed batteries) however as we learned you could simply punch in a code and gate opened seamlessly. The kitchen floor needed mopping as it was pretty dirty, a toilet was broke when we arrived (which we learned broke 2 days prior to our arrival), however, after a phone call was made to the rental management company, the toilet was fixed within 48 hours. Everyone was very responsive to text or call back when we had a question but it took a little police work to find out if we should call the owner or rental manager. All in all, we would 100% stay here again as we now know how to access the main access gate, the location of the house, etc. The house is really something special, pink flamingos are in a salt pond down off the hill, the views are so special, sunsets are amazing, layout fantastic. I highly recommend and again would have given 5 stars if we simply had better directions.

Our Third stay at Villa Barbulette

We love this house! It's a great location for an adult gathering. Lot's of space to allow for quiet moments even if you're in a group. The view from the pool and the veranda is AMAZING. Beautiful sunsets every night. The kitchen is well stocked with everything you'll need to cook meals and there's a stocked spice drawer as well. The bedroom air conditioning worked great which helps the comfortable sleeping temperature.There are some "quirks" to this house. The lower level bedrooms open to the outside - the proximity to the pool might be a bit worrisome if you had a toddler that can open doors.The wifi networks and passwords we were given didn't exist on our devices. Fortunately we had previous visits and our devices "recognized" the existing network and I was able to share the password. Beware the neighborhood pigs that raid the exterior trash cans - they're not an issue if you keep the gate closed.And I must mention that Hilde & Gerrit, the local hosts/housekeeper/maintenance staff are an absolute pleasure to interact with. They are quick to respond to any question/need!

Groot en functioneel

De villa is heel groot. Er kunnen 10 mensen slapen, maar de faciliteiten zijn geschikt voor maximaal 6 mensen. De indeling van het huis is wat merkwaardig en zal voor sommige gasten niet geschikt zijn. Overal in huis zijn trappen en de benedenverdieping met drie slaapkamers en het zwembad is alleen buitenom of via een steile trap te bereiken. De inrichting van het huis is functioneel. Alles is aanwezig, maar het huis heeft niet echt sfeer. In de woonkamer en op het terras zouden plafondventilatoren een welkome aanvulling zijn. De bedden waren uitstekend. Er waren wat problemen met de verlichting, de keukenapparatuur en een lekkage, maar de beheerder heeft dit uiteindelijk allemaal verholpen. Het contact met de beheerder verliep prima. De locatie van het huis is geweldig met prachtige vergezichten over de zee, maar dat geldt eigenlijk voor alle huizen in Cas Abou. We huren vaker een huis in Cas Abou en we zullen dit huis vast nog wel een keer huren, maar alleen als andere huizen niet beschikbaar zijn.
