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.

The apartment was lovely great location for us. However I didn’t receive online check in so had to wait in line for about half an hour to get checked in which was a bit of a hassle. The girl gave us a piece of paper with one line address and told us to give it to the taxi driver who said we should have more information, finally got that sorted and the driver dropped us off and gave us more directions to find address no sign of it. Luckily a couple people came along and managed to help us. Lift was out of order, a maintenance man helped us up the stairs but keys wouldn’t work, finally found out he was trying to get in the wrong apartment. When we got to the correct one it was very nice and clean. But it didn’t have the view advertised, there were no duvets on the beds, took 3 days to get them, the tv in the bedroom didn’t work 3 days to get that sorted. Day 2 we got back to the apartment and it wreaked of sewage everywhere. We couldn’t use the bathroom in hallway after that and had a towel blocking door to help contain smell and constantly putting disinfectant in other drains. Checked out online but was informed had to exchange keys with management co. Time set for 10.30-11. Nobody showed up tried calling no answer emailed still no response. I will say it was a nice place easy access once lift was fixed good location for us however very frustrating at times
Stayed 9 nights in May 2025
