A couple more tips:
Habitat is in a pretty remote location. So any food that you want in your room you'll need to buy in town. There's a little market up past Lagun but she doesn't have much.
Centrum market in Piscadera is closest to the airport, but it's south not west. From the airport, go south through the rotary towards Piscadera and it'll be on your right at about the 2nd or 3rd stoplight. You'll see the sign b4 you have to turn.
Then double back and take the rotary west towards to get to Habitat. If you follow signs for West Punt, you're going the right way. But the turn-off for Habitat is much sooner. There's a sign, I believe it's on the left. (I could be wrong about this)
We stayed in Piscadera and drove to Habitat several times, it was about a 20min. trip. Downtown Willemsted would be about 10min further east over the bridge.
There's no restaurants near Habitat except theirs since the resort is in a housing development. Landhuis Daniel is probably the closest once you get back to the main road. Our apt. owners recommended it but it's pricey.
Afaik your next closest options would be back in town near Piscadera Bay, there's several at the resorts, one free-standing (French or Italian?) and Hooks Hut, sort of an outdoor restaurant/bar/beach area. So plan on a drive for any meals not eaten at Habitat. And there's a couple local places in West Punt if you find yourself in that area. There's also the snaks along the road all over the place.
Actually there's a restaurant at Sunset Waters, but we were very underimpressed. No one brings a check unless you ask for it, they're not rude just consider it impolite. Most places you can sit all night if you'd like.
Nearest casinos are at the Hilton or Marriott in Piscadera Bay also. They're not much, a dozen tables and maybe 50 slots.
There's easy shorediving entries at:
Ocean Encounters West at Playa Kalki. They have a good setup with a divedock. There's 20 or so "custom" (no two are alike) rock steps down to OEWest and lockers off the divedock. Don't haul tanks down the steps, you have to rent from OEWest.
Playa Jeremi - 15min. west of Habitat - easy beach entry - no facilities so bring everything including tanks.
Playa Lagun - 10min west of Habitat - easy beach entry - there's a diveop there but you can also bypass it if you have your own stuff as the beach is 200 yds. down the road. Don't sit in the chairs unless you want to pay. (different rental co.)
Varsenbaai - 10min east of Habitat - look this one up if interested, it might be west of Habitat. Kind of a shabby facility but it works. Ask the owner to show you how to find the seahorses. If you dive east drift back in to the west really shallow, there's turtles eating seagrass in about 6' of water. I saw about 100 squid off the pier to the east.
Sunset Waters - I believe it's a few minutes west of Habitat. Really easy beach entry with a protected cove out to the reef. Not a great dive site though, the west side was torn up during the last hurricane so all the diving is east. There's also a boat channel to the west so watch for that. There was a some current running east there they day we dove it. They sunk a Cessna in 40' of water if you like that sort of thing.
Curacao's a good place for starting to shoredive. Most of the entries are protected and lots of them have improvements and on-site facilities. Most operators will collect a small fee to use the facilities. They're pretty aggressive about it at Sunset Waters on the beach unless you rent tanks from Sunset Divers then it's included.
My times/distances could be a little off. Somedays I just wasn't paying attention...
PM if you have other questions, I was just there late April.
