I'm a travel agent looking to put people here... they are divers. Has anyone stayed here...any comments?? GREAT price.

Thanks for input (this is Curacao, by the way).

Curacao is a B-E-A-utiful island not so discovered by tourists yet like most other caribbean islands it's an arid nice quant island, for diving i would say Habitat is the best resort they let u dive 24-7 whether u want to take a dive at 2 pm, or wake up at 1:30 am and feel like diving the tanks are there and readythey also have 2 daily boat dives(if 4 any reason habitiat is full sunset waters beach resort is an all inclusive and also good diving resort.

Kind regards, Benji

Hi Sonia,

It's been a couple of years, but I've been to Sunset Waters. I went in late Nov 2002. I was travelling by myself, and the resort staff went way, WAY out of their way to ensure that I had a great trip.

I honestly can't say enough about the service. Jim, the manager, personally introduced me to other guests at dinner the night I arrived, which gave me a nice choice of being social if I wanted to be, or not if I wanted to be. I had someone to eat with every night I was there. Jim also lent me his car for two days to explore the island on my own!

As for the rooms - it's a simple resort. People looking for luxury probably won't like it, but the rooms are clean and plenty big enough, everything worked, and I had an AMAZING ocean view, with a private balcony. That's really all it takes to make me happy.

The beach is clean, the drink service was fast, and the drinks had plenty of alcohol. I didn't take much advantage of activities at the resort other than snorkling because I'd lost my PADI card, but the divers I was hanging out with had nothing but good things to say about the dive operation. I went to something called the blueroom for some cliff-diving and snorkeling, and that was a lot of fun, I would recommend it. I want to go back and go diving.

The food was also good, but my experience was slightly different than average probably. I am a vegetarian, and when I told the cook that the first night, he told me he'd make me something special, so I got a special vegetarian creation every night instead of the buffet. The breakfast buffet was tasty though. The lunch pickings could have been more rounded out would be my only complaint there. Again, it's not "luxury", just good solid food, served by helpful and happy staff. Also of note, I mentioned I was there over the thanksgiving holiday. The resort is owned by several people, and the majority of them were there for thanksgiving. Some are from the States, some are from Europe. In any case, they'd all brought little touches from home, wine/herbs etc...and were putting on a particularly nice thanksgiving dinner for themselves. They invited me to join them, and I have to say, that was a 3 michelin star meal - best thanksgiving dinner ever.

The island, like the resort, is quiet, and the people are friendly. I found it extremely relaxing to go to the various beaches to take pictures and snorkle and read.

So basically, if you're high-maintenance or want a lot of activity, this place probably isn't for you. If you're just ready for some R&R, can take things as they come, and know how to be friendly and treat staff kindly...well, the staff of Sunset Waters will go way above and beyond to ensure you leave with a huge smile on my face. The only reason I haven't been back every year since is I haven't taken winter vacations.

Dear Sonia,

I would like to come in contact with you because we have an diveschool in Curacao and we are specialized in sightseeing diving with tourist and locals.

Maybe we can make some arrangement in the future.

Oh I love Curacao. The water is marvelous and the sunsets are more beautiful than anywhere else on the planet. I have been there three times for now. Every year's summer, because I am such a fan of diving and snorkeling. I enjoy being under water and somehow a part of the water's world. I really can recommend a trip to Curacao to everyone who loves sunsets, beaches, perfect weather and a wonderful time.

I would like to bring to the attention of everyone interested in staying at the Sunset Water Hotel, that the resort is temporary closed.
No date is set for re-opening. As soon as this is the case we will inform the visitors to this site.
In the mean time, may I suggest two other locations at West Point, the western end of the island:

visit the following websites: http://www.noskrusero-apartments.comand http://www.oceanencounterswest.com
the operators can be contacted through their own websites.
There are excellent diving facilities at West point.] see thge U-Tube video on the Ocean Encounters West side
