The Royal Sea Aquarium Resort

I have owned at the Royal Sea Aquarium for 20 years. Excellent resort; small, quiet, and intimate; superb location. The world famous Mambo Beach is just across the lagoon from the resort. Excellent restaurants and shopping dot the Mambo Beach avenue. Rent a car and explore the island. From Jan Thiel in the south, to Willemstad in the middle, to Westpunt in the north, there is so much to experience on this wonderful Dutch island.

Beautiful, small, friendly resort with its own small beach and adjacent to Mambo Beach and the Dolphin Academy. There are a wide variety of shops, bars and restaurants along Mambo beach within close walking distance. The staff treats everyone like family.

My favorite place to travel. The people are friendly and always helpful and the island is beautiful and part of the Netherland Antilles. It is the island next to Aruba but larger and less populated. The resort shares a small separate island with the Curacao Sea Aquarium. Always the option to do something or do absolutely nothing!

Lovely Vacation resort especially relevant to scuba and snorkeling fans with a full-service dive center and the Curacao Sea Aquarium right next door. Selling as we are getting older and one of us can no longer dive safely due to health reasons. Otherwise we love this place. Not looking to make much money off the sale since we have had many wonderful years here until recently, but need to cover expenses and this year's maintenance, which we will pay. Reasonable offers fully considered.

We have owned here since 2006 mainly for the grands. Grands have gotten older now, doing their own thing. Good resort for family, Safe!! Aquarium next to Resort. Free Admission. Transportation to shopping for groceries and, trips downtown to Punda.

Beautiful small resort in Curaçao. Pool and beach.

Wonderful location with snorkeling and diving on site. Beach on site facing lagoon. Walk to many restaurants. Shuttle to town and grocery. Exceptional staff. Rooms, suites, villas continually updated and have everything you need. Several pools and hot tub. Exercise classes in pool. Breakfast on site. Small resort. Well cared for.

I have stayed at many timeshares over the years but this was definitely my favorite. I loved watching the Sea Lions being fed while I sipped my morning coffee on my balcony and walking over to the Sea Aquarium at any point in the day to see a show or exhibit. The resort was very comfortable with lots of activities and friendly staff. The unit was very clean and comfortable. The island was laid back and breath-taking and much cheaper than Aruba. I can't wait to go back!

We have owned at the Sea Aquarium since 2004 and just came back from our 4th visit. We have two other timeshares that we think are great, one in the Turks (Alexandra) and one in Cabo San Lucas (Pueblo Bonito Rose).

The 32 unit resort is fabulous. Small, quiet, but always with nice visitors we've found. The rooms are on par with the several other Royals we've visited. Can't beat the Dolphin Academy next door, with shows viewable from the B Building balconies and A101, A201 and A301 (ours). Across the bridge walk (on the way in/out) is the Ocean Encounters PADI Dive Shop - first class (see previous post). They have numerous sites and you can just shore dive from the resort. Snorkelers can enjoy the reef right at the resort.

Best pricey restaurants for us have been Fort Nassau and the Bistro de Clochard. Excellent less expensive places are numerous. For a hoot and a good meal on the Westpundt, try the local landmark "Janchies", and a new resort there, the Kura Hulanda, has three restaurants which we found excellent.

To explore the island we recommend a rental car which offer pretty good rates for the islands. Recommend you compare - this time Budget had the best deal and we had a nice new car. The caves, Mount Christoffel Park, and views from the Westpundt are popular. For a sail outing try the Insulinde (Captain Phil and Laara) or the Bounty for neat excursions.
