Great View Villa Galant Curaçao

Our recent stay here left us spellbound. The world-class ocean views from this property were nothing short of breathtaking making it tough to leave the house each day. The home itself is well-equipped, perfect for us, and made our stay comfortable and convenient. I’d also like to add that the timely and flawless communication was perfect. We had no issues needing to be addressed, but they were proactive, responsive, and Olga was a delightful person if we needed anything or any questions answered. I can't recommend this place enough for anyone seeking a slice of paradise with stunning views.

I can't say give enough positive feedback about this property. We just returned (3/1/23) and hated to leave. From the start of the booking, the communication with Eva the owner was quick and clear, she provided a wonderful guide full of information about the property and the island that we referred to many times over our week-long stay. The caretaker of the property Olga was delightful, welcoming and attentive when we had needs or questions. The house is well appointed with a fully functional & well-appointed kitchen that we used to make meals 2x/day during our week-long stay. I have so many wonderful things to say about this gorgeous island but sticking to the property, you will not get a better view of the sunset from the deck. The home is located in a quiet, safe and clean neighborhood with many lovely beaches within a short drive as well as a well a stocked grocery store (or smaller markets), gas, shopping, etc. Also close by (10 minute drive) is the Nena Sanchez gallery, a great spot to see flamingos, and a wonderful local restaurant called Marfa's - stop by and get a delicious goat burger! We would easily choose this property again in Curacao!

OMG when I say the view of this home is probably one of the best I've seen, it truly is. Literally what you see in the pictures is what you get. The home is clean, the breeze is amazing, and the location was a fabulous retreat if you travel to the other side of the island. Along with all the perks of the home Olga and Eva are responsive which I loved. The security guards at the gate were personable and friendly, Nearby beaches like Daaiboi were outstanding and perfect for snorkeling; Karakter (which you'll see from the house) is a part of the Coral Estates resort and convenient - just go!! I'm SO GOLAD we did! Oh yes, someone mentioned the mosquitoes, and like anywhere else where there are trees and outdoorsy elements you'll encounter bugs on a mission. There were more than enough coils in the home to light on the patio, just be sure to wear bug spray if you are a person who gets bit up.

My wife and I recently celebrated our first year anniversary and decided Curaçao would be the perfect destination for the occasion. The property looked fabulous in the photos and quenched every desire we sought to experience. Unfortunately as the saying goes “when it’s too good to be true”, it usually is. The property manager Olga gave us a quick walkthrough which was good but didn’t mention anything about what happens during the stay. The plumbing issue in the shower was so bad my wife and I had to skip bathing due to flooding of the ENTIRE bathroom. We noticed a “squeegee” located next to the urinal but didn’t pay any mind at first, until the next morning. We worked for a good 20 mins to remove the water that almost seemed impossible to drain due to the amount of clogged debris. Soon after that, the water supply throughout the house slowed to a snail’s pace. They say it’s to ease consumption but this was our first morning using the water. Called Olga and her reply was “I thought they fixed it” and proceeded to do the same water removing we’ve done already. At night is when things get really uncomfortable. In a brief description, the manger sends, explains to you not to use much electricity or you’ll be charged even more. The “eastward wind” that they stated would cool to house was only good when strong winds was accompanied with rain. Mind you, the temperature only drops 5-6 degrees in Curacoa at night so it’s just as hot. We were so nervous about being charged an additional fee we layed irritable without ceiling fan, air conditioning, which was only in the bedrooms and unopened doors due to the amount of mosquitoes that invaded our space. My suggestion, if you want to avoid flooding while showering, heat exhaustion, West Nile virus or loss of blood driven from your body by the ferocious mosquitoes and constant worry of extra water and electric fees you can comfortably stay in your rental vehicle parked in the round-about.
