Blue Bay Curaçao Golf & Beach Resort

3 months ago

We had a wonderful stay at Blue Bay Resort. When had a beautiful three-bedroom penthouse. The apartment had an incredible view, a spacious and well-designed kitchen, and everything we needed for a comfortable stay. With a great pool . It truly felt like a home away from home for our family with our two young kids. Housekeeping provided fresh towels every day, which was a nice touch. The beach is just a short walk away, and the sunbeds are included. The only downside was that the sunbeds were not very comfortable to lie on for a whole day. We also found the food to be average and not particularly tasty. Overall, Blue Bay Resort is a fantastic place to stay. The staff were very friendly, the service was excellent, and we would definitely recommend it for a relaxing family vacation.

Our stay at Blue Bay Curaçao 4-2026 was very disappointing. I’ve been to Curacao twice but would not recommend the Blue Bay Golf Club Resort. The biggest issue occurred at breakfast. Due to a misunderstanding with the breakfast count on our reservation, our group was told we could not be served. What was frustrating was that we had already been seated and waiting for nearly an hour before staff finally approached us and told us that we would not receive any food and that we needed to leave. We were confused because there were only seven people in our group, not the larger number the resort claimed. We would have gladly paid any difference if there was an issue with the reservation, but no reasonable solution was offered. In addition, there was extensive construction taking place throughout the resort during our stay. Guests should not have been placed so close to active construction zones. Every morning we were awakened by trucks, hammering, drilling, and construction noise. This was far from the relaxing vacation experience we expected. The combination of poor communication, lack of customer service, and constant construction noise made this a very disappointing trip. We hope management improves how guest concerns are handled and is more transparent about construction before future guests book their stay.

Great beach, great accommodations, not a five stars though. The main reason being…. the food, to be charitable, you can eat it. Don’t expect a culinary experience. It’s great for families.

My experience with Blue Bay Resort has been incredibly frustrating and honestly unacceptable from start to finish. I made a reservation for a March 2026 trip and booked a 3-bedroom ground floor unit at THE SHORE Blue Bay in July and on January 18 I even took the extra step to reconfirm my reservation. At that time, they clearly confirmed that I was booked at The Shore, ground floor with an ocean view. Then, just days before my trip—on March 23—I found out through a Curaçao travel Facebook group (not from the resort itself) that people’s reservations were being changed from The Shore building to The Jazmyn units without notice. This was the first I had heard of any issue. I was supposed to leave for my trip on March 26, so learning this at the last minute was incredibly stressful. I reached out to Blue Bay again to confirm my reservation at The Shore, to which they responded, "Thank you for your messages. We've received your concern regarding your reservation with 15644 for Arrival 28/03/2026 and Departure 04/04/2026, now booked at The Jazmyn Golf Course Luxury 3 Villa." From March 23 through March 25, I was emailed back and forth with Blue Bay, scrambling to come up with a solution and to let them know my dissatisfaction and concern for the way this was handled (learning about a DOWNGRADE from a FB group, and being told it was an upgrade). During that time, they gave me multiple, inconsistent explanations about why the specific unit I booked AND confirmed was no longer available. When I asked for clarification or more details, I was told the information was “confidential,” which only made the situation more frustrating and suspicious. I heard from numerous people who had the same experience (with different units in The Shore) which made everything even more concerning. After multiple emails and phone calls expressing my concern and desire to cancel the reservation, they suddenly “found” a 4-bedroom penthouse at The Shore for my family. However, this option was only available for 4 of our 7 nights, so we would still need to pack up and move to The Jazmyn on April 1. With my departure just one day away, I had no other choice and accepted the arrangement. (Silver lining: staying at The Jazmyn gave me a 1st hand experience in how FAR from an upgrade it is and how I had truly been misled.) They also offered the use of a golf cart for the week and 2 beach cabanas for 1 day of our stay. While I appreciated these gestures, they do not make up for the lack of transparency and their general dishonesty. The biggest issue is that they appear to be changing reservations without any notice and then calling it an “upgrade.” In reality, The Jazmyn is a downgrade—it’s smaller, has a golf course (ours had a pile of dirt and construction barrel) view instead of an ocean view, and is farther from the beach and main amenities. Calling this an upgrade is completely misleading. The Jazmyn is priced less per night than The Shore and yet, Blue Bay tried to sell this as an upgrade. Blue Bay's team reached out to speak with me and ensure we were satisfied with the trip. Unfortunately, this attempt at good will only added to the frustration as they failed to call me at the agreed upon time, twice. What’s most concerning is that if I had not come across the information in the Curaçao Facebook group, I would have arrived with my family expecting the unit I booked, only to be told on arrival that I was being placed in a completely different accommodation and that it was an “upgrade.” It is an obvious downgrade, and the attempt to frame it otherwise is deeply misleading. Overall, I feel misled and taken advantage of. The lack of communication, last-minute changes, conflicting stories, and misrepresentation of accommodations make their practices feel deceptive and completely unacceptable. Based on other reviews and these conversations, this is NOT an isolated incident and is certainly something travelers should consider when planning a trip to Curacao. There are many options for accommodations and Blue Bay does not deserve your business.

We recently stayed at Bluebay Golf & Beach Resort and unfortunately, my experience was extremely disappointed. During our stay, we clearly declined housekeeping on two occasions one when leaving out and one while in the villa, despite telling them we don’t need housekeeping at all they waited for us to leave the villa and enter and stole our hard earned cash $1300 in total mind you it’s was a four bedroom villa why they only made up three of the beds and leave one room untouched cause the worker claimed that the room was messy(lies) when ask to see the picture no1 seems to has it a supervisor informed us that there was a picture of the messy room …..As a result of this situation we made a police report and a tourist report this is not something i would ever expected to have happen to us while on vacation and it made the rest of our trip uncomfortable and very stressful…we felt unsafe knowing that we requested privacy and was ignored and our personal belongings were not secure ….We informed the staff and the General Manager we didn’t receive a satisfactory response or a resolution of the matter…..they also ask us if we have travel insurance why does our travel insurance has to do with your staff stealing our hard earned money ……the Cops even informed us that this is not the first incident and nothing becomes of it how disappointing that is I would really for a good outcome GUESTS SHOULD BE ABLE TO TRUST HOTEL STAFF AND FEEL SECURE IN THEIR ROOM, BUT UNFORTUNATELY BASED ON OUR EXPERIENCES I STRONGLY ADVISE OTHERS TO BE CAUTIOUS WITH THEIR VALUABLE IF STAYING HERE ….I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND THAT RESOT
