Peaceful, relaxing and gorgeous resort with friendly staff and top tier service. We have been to a lot of places in the Caribbean where the food was either mediocre or just bad. We were very pleased with the food at Baoase, it was excellent.

staff was very well trained, super friendly and nice and trying. grounds are immaculate. white sand, blue water, flowers. well lit at night They often (for a fee) took us into town and pick-up too. Desk was helpful. Small gym was ok. Staff that seemed to be less trained or didn't care were kids from netherlands (i think from there). They knew how many people we had in the room but didn't always leave enough pool towels. Rooms are showing wear and tear. Window blinds that we had issued shutting/locking closed position, wood floor that severely creeks/warped. a/c worked well, room started to get that island mildew smell after a handful of days - they could have sprayed. Bed and towels good. Turn down service was nice. Restaurant all outdoors, no a/c. Massage outside. Quiet pool and a beach. Beach water calm and blocked by breakwater rocks. Resort very casual, maybe a tad dressier for dinner. If going to pedestrian bridge in town, then need car/ride (far). They have a nice boat we took for the day - nice captain, good spots they took us too. This is a special place. They have power adapters. if need. Can drink water. Town was safe walking around. …

We stayed 6 nights 7 days for our honeymoon. This place was beautiful. The room was breathtaking. The food was special. The service was exceptional. The private beach was small but never got old and Mambo beach is only a 15 min walk away. I would definitely recommend to anyone who wants a personal beautiful getaway. 5 stars for real.

booked my trip 3 months in advance for my family to vacation here. Although they charge 5 star prices, this resort is not a 4 or 5 star resort. It is beautiful, but it could be better if the owner invested to keep the property in good condition. The maintenance is very poor. The first night the toilet pipe flooded waste on the second floor and created a hole through the ceiling on the first floor and began to run through the hole on to the first floor. I am not a plumber, but I know enough about pipes to identify this problem was due to a lack of maintenance. I am a world traveler, I always ask hotels /resorts to check everything in my reserved accommodations prior to my arrival, this resort was also asked. However, they failed to prepare which negatively affected our vacation so I do not recommend this resort. The prices at this resort are outrageous! The food was horrible and overpriced so we ate at different restaurants outside the resort.…

We just came back from the beautiful Baoese resort and it was truly an incredible experience from the moment we greeted by the friendliest security to the last moment we left when the staff bid us farewell! The beach/lagoon area is peaceful and gorgeous. Beach chairs and cabanas are set up well with lots of privacy and this goes with the table set up for dining as well. Tables are well spread out without being on top of one another and we just couldn't get enough of the stunning view. What sets apart from good to great is always the people and that's exactly the case at Baoese. We were greeted with warm hospitality and professionalism by all the staff we encountered. Food was really good too! They had special themed night for dinner which is a great way to change it up and add variety to their regular a la carte menu. We had a fantastic time and can't wait to visit Curaçao and stay at the beautiful Baoese again!…

My husband and I stayed here recently to celebrate our 20th wedding anniversary. The resort and room did not disappoint. We stayed in room 205, which was really private and quiet and had plenty of space inside and out. The private beach was the best part and we could either sit on the beach or on the deck to enjoy the beautiful view of the ocean and Willemstad. We also loved the plunge pool. The lagoon and area beyond had great snorkeling and we spent a decent amount of time snorkeling out there and looking at the colorful fish, we also saw a bright green moray eel and a spotted eagle stingray. We also enjoyed walking on the jetty. The bed was luxurious, we slept great every night we were there. They do a really nice turndown service every evening. The quality of everything was top notch. Room service was easy and quick, they had minimal restrictions on what they'd deliver to your room. The staff were all friendly and helpful as well. …

We recently celebrated our 30th anniversary with a 5-night stay in one of the Superior Beachfront Pool Suites with a private pool and beach. We had an amazing time and only left the resort once for a few hours to see the town. It was very nice to have the private pool and beach where we generally spent our mornings. We spent afternoons at the main beach where there was never a problem finding lounge chairs and took advantage of the beach butler service. They had plenty of staff who were all friendly and helpful. To top it off, all the food was amazing, and we enjoyed eating right on the beach. We will definitely try to return in the future.
