Outstanding Value -- Villa on A-location
We (6 adults) rented this place in early Feb 2020 and found it exceeded our expectations.
House was very clean. Property managers Maya and Fitz took care of us and made sure we had everything we needed. We forgot to pack an adapter for the outlets and they came over with a couple to use. We asked and they even had a case of beer in the fridge waiting for us!!!!
Location is great. 200 metres from a grocery store allowed us to walk down to pick up our supplies. Another 200 metres brought us to the water for us to swim.
House layout is excellent for vacationers. 3 bedrooms downstairs mean you don't need to lug suitcases upstairs. Each with a private bath and A/C. Outdoor patio for dining and relaxing. Only negative was we had 6 people willing to help in kitchen so the space was tight between the island and cupboards. We managed. We dined at the house some nights and some dinners we walked down the hill to the restaurants on the beach.
Place has a security gate, the house has an alarm plus a safe in the house so we could rest easy. Of course every house in the area was the same so we heard a lot of alarms going off. With that much security you may think it was a dangerous area but we found no issues and could walk safely around the area.
Place has a nice little pool on an above ground deck. Those who enjoyed a pool could stay there and those who like the ocean had a short, but hilly, walk to the beach. The water in the ocean was as clear as you'd see in any pool. 5 metres down was just as clear as ankle deep. There are many beaches but the best were at the other end of the island at the NW end, so a tiring drive through the town to get there.
We rented. a van for the entire time. We could easily have rented a car by the day from places right there at Jan Thiel beach.
We were treated to a Curacao treat. The power infrastructure of the island is not the best so they had to shut off the power for the whole day to make repairs. We have something to laugh and reminisce over.
All in all we made the right choice in selecting Villa on A-location. It offered a balance of being lazy by the pool at the house or exploring. Maya and Fritz checked on us and ensured the cleaning was done properly.
All great fun. We would definitely go back to Villa on A-Location again.
