Hey Guys,

I'm starting to plan a spring vacation and I was thinking about hitting up Curacao this time. Is there any place to stay that is similar to Den Laman in Bonaire? Looking for a decent place to stay that won't break the bank.

Thanks!
 
Some that could be similar in terms of amenities. I didn't look at prices. East to west.

Suites/Apts. (not rooms) here: Curacao Hotel - Lions Dive & Beach Resort for an unique Caribbean experience? The main Ocean Encounters shop is 50 yds. away.

nearby: Livingstone Jan Thiel Beach Resort CuracaoCan be a crowded locals beach at times.

near downtown: Atlantis Apartments : Welcome to our curacao dive apartment rental site Building kind of looks like Den Laman...lol.

Up the hill and across the street from the ocean in the Piscadera Bay area 10mins west of downtown.http://curacaosunapartments.com/ For diving there's an OE shop at the Hilton or Caribbean Sea Sports at the Marriott. Other rentals at Royal Palm Resort are on vrbo.com. We stayed next door, nice resort area. Quiet at night.

There's also Blue Bay nearby. Blue Bay Curaçao - About Blue Bay Curacao or - Apartment or lodge to enjoy your holiday - Sunny Curacao IDK much about it.

In Westpunt - a 45min. drive from town. Quiet area with few restaurants. Stop at a grocery store in Willemstad before driving out.

Home - All West Apartments & Diving Curacao - All West - ENG On one of the best shore dives - s a lot of steps down to the beach also..lol. Popular with divers.

nearby: Marazul Dive Resort Curacao - Oceanfront vacation rentals Curacao - also on vrbo.com.

IMO the better dives were farther west. But we didn't spend a lot of time diving east of town. Plan to do a lot of driving to dive sites.

Thanks for taking the time to make this list. I will start looking it over tonight when I get home and try to figure out where to stay!
