The Neighborhood:
Punda District - Willemstad’s first colonial settlement , now a World Heritage site, this modern city center has a distinct Euro-Caribbean atmosphere, its preserved colonial buildings housing fashion boutiques, art galleries, and sidewalk cafés.
Wander down Punda's narrow cobblestoned alleys, then snap a signature photo at the Wilhelminapleins' giant Curaçao and Dushi signs. The neighborhood gets extra lively during the free Punda Vibes event every Thursday from 6 PM to 10 PM, featuring an outdoor market, live music, and local folkloric dancing. Once a warehouse district for Dutch traders, the pedestrians-only Punda, a tangle of streets and alleys, still buzzes with commercial activity. The shops here sell a little bit of everything: embroidered linen tablecloths and Irish crystal, Caribbean-made rum and Curaçao liqueurs, Gouda and Edam cheeses and fashion accessories and leather goods.
Getting Around:
All restaurants, shops and activities in the city centre are in a walking distance. For activities out of the centre we strongly recommend to use a taxi or rent a car.

Location location location! This property is spacious and very nice along with being in the perfect condition for restaurants, shopping, and casinos. That being said…. It needs blinds or curtains in the living area, it is located right above busy restaurants with outdoor seating, the ferry, and a sidewalk and everyone can see directly into the condo. Beds are extremely HARD. If you enjoy sleeping with a blanket you need to bring one, it will not be provided, only sheets.
