Spacious detached villa near beach with private pool, nice view and cool breeze

Villa Pura Vida is a new detached villa with a private pool in the neighbourhood Brakkeput Abou nearby the famous Spanish Water and prestigious areas of 'Jan Sofat' and 'Jan Thiel', situated close to historic town of Willemstad, beaches (Jan Thiel and Papagayo), shopping, sailing, diving, surfing and fine dining.

We offer a one story detached villa with three bedrooms, two bathrooms, two porches, spacious living room, dining room and open kitchen and bar. Fully equipped and very comfortable.

Very affordable and very child-friendly. Your children can play 'on the street' without worries.


Spacious and cool: The villa is built a spacious lot and has very generous surfaces for the available rooms and terraces. It has a floor plan of about 200 m2 (2200 sq feet) and therefore offers a lot of space not very commonly found in holiday homes.

From the front porch you enter the living room of the villa. Cathedral ceilings offer a spacious effect and the living room appears even larger than it already is. Hot air will disappear to make room for the gentle blowing tradewind which is always there and will make your stay a very comfortable one.

The trade wind will leave through the rear end of the villa where there is another covered terrace and this terrace has a open connection to the kitchen by use of a cosy bar.

Relaxing with a view: At your arrival you will find that the large and impressive front porch will attract your attention immediately. It is completely covered and offers, amongst other furniture, a great lounge bed to make your stay outside comfortable and relaxing. And there is always the view.

The view form the front is to the old and historic (and completely renovated) mansion 'Rust en Vrede' (which is Dutch for Peace and Tranquility) surrounded by its plantation. Looking a bit to the right you will see the sailing ships on the Spanish Waters and there is always the spectacular view to Table Mountain. The villa is surrounded by a tropical garden and two terraces: one in the back of the villa and a large one (covered, on Curaçao called a 'porch') in the front. You will always find a sunny or shady place to stay.
During your stay at this villa, you'll be within walking distance of Caracas Bay. A private pool and a kitchen are available in the villa.

The property is nice but has not been maintained properly as advertised. Wash machine broken, pool has a leak, need paint job, dishwasher was so old not sure worked or how to, no toaster, the big burner on stove kept puffing and turning it off making it very difficult to cook bc only big burner (gas), door for car to enter yard for parking broken, NO ocean view whatsoever. we always rent in curacao, first time disappointed.

Séjour Curacao
La maison propre mais très difficile à trouver.. même le chauffeur de taxi n’a pas trouvé Accueil extraordinaire avec Suyvan qui s’occupe de la maison car le propriétaire n’est pas sur l’île Cuisine peu équipée à notre arrivée: aucun condiment, aucun savon, aucun linge de vaisselle. Il a fallu acheter beaucoup pour s’installer Aucune carte de l’île , aucun document d’accueil dans la maison Heureusement Suyvan est devenue notre ressource et ange gardien Il faut obligatoirement avoir une voiture pour se déplacer car la maison est loin de tout Les plages les plus proches sont à 5-6 km et pas super Il faut rouler jusqu’à Piscadera pour trouver plage intéressante Il faut aussi faire le tour de plusieurs épiceries pour se nourrir et trouver des prix convenables Pour la baignade à la maison : petite mais super et très bien entretenue Il fait très chaud sur l’île : mars avril moyenne de 33 degrés Pour les plages les souliers de bain sont essentiels mais la présence de poissons tropicaux est absolument extraordinaire!

Leuke, rustige vakantie woning
Goede tijd gehad, rustige omgeving. netjes en voelt heel veilig. Wel is een huurauto een echte must, anders kom je nergens. Alleen brakkeput mei mei is te lopen. Maar verder is lopen niet aan te raden, niet vanwege de afstanden, maar vanwege het gebrek aan veilige plek om te lopen.

Heerlijk huis!
Ruim huis, praktisch ingedeeld, compleet ingericht. Heerlijk terras (voor) en prima ruimte (achter). Zwembad om lekker af te koelen. Met andere woorden : een prima plek voor een week met vrienden.

Heerlijke vakantiewoning!
Wat een heerlijke woning! Zowel aan de voorkant als aan de achterkant een terras, waardoor het heerlijk doorwaait en je altijd een fijn plekje hebt om te gaan zitten. Van alle gemakken voorzien. De service was ook echt top! Zeker voor herhaling vatbaar. Wij hebben genoten!

Ein fantastisches Haus
Wir haben unseren dreiwöchigen Aufenthalt in diesem Haus sehr genossen. Die veröffentlichten Bilder entsprechen exakt dem Haus. Im Haus befindet sich alles was man braucht. Der ständig durchziehende Wind ist einfach perfekt. Abwicklung mit dem Vermieter und Hauskeeper einfach und unkompliziert. Fragen werden umgehend beantwortet. Mit dem Auto ist man schnell an den Stränden und interessanten Orten. Danke Erik, Nicole und J.L. für diesen schönen, sorgenfreien Urlaub.

Sehr schönes Haus, Auto dringend erforderlich
Das Haus ist wirklich schön und gut ausgestattet. Wir waren mit vier Personen dort und hatten mehr als genügend Platz. Die Kommunikation mit Erik, dem Eigentümer, und auch Nicole, der Ansprechpartnerin vor Ort, war hervorragend. Leider sind die Strände und auch Restaurants sehr weit entfernt, sodass man immer mind. 20 Minuten Fahrzeit einkalkulieren muss. Der Pool ist relativ klein, aber zum Abkühlen nach einem Strandtag hat er gelangt. Leider gibt es nur eine Liege am Haus, obwohl es für bis zu 7 Personen ausgewiesen ist. Was für uns ein bisschen störend, aber nicht durch den Eigentümer verschuldet ist, waren die vielen bellenden Hunde in der Nachbarschaft und die krähenden Hähne, die sich ab 4:00 Uhr morgens meldeten. Das ist Natur, aber sorgte bei uns dennoch für kurze Nächte. Alles in allem würden wir das Haus aber auf jeden Fall weiterempfehlen.

Un havre de paix.
Nicole était vraiment au petit soin lors de notre séjours . La villa est comme sur la photo mais encore plus belle quand on y est . Tout est parfait à l'intérieur, chambres, salon , mais surtout les extérieur des deux côtés de la villa qui sont top avec la petite piscine qui suffit amplement pour se rafraîchir mais qui est assez profonde ce qui ma surpris. Vous pouvez y aller les yeux fermés sans aucun souci. Merci encore a Nicole pour les conseils de restaurant etc..

Traumhaft
Es war ein Traum. Die Kommunikation vor und während des Urlaubes mit dem Vermieter waren klasse. Bei Ankunft wird man erwartet und es wird einem alles erklärt. Das Haus ist wunderschön und wir hatten zu fünft jede Menge Platz. ein Vorredner beschwerte sich über Hundegebell! Als gutes gegenmittel empfehlen wir Curacao rum :-) denn wir Abends gemütlich auf der Terrasse getrunken haben. Falls ein Urlaub auf Curacao ansteht empfehle ich " Nehmt dieses Haus"! Es gab nichts Negatives. Special Greetings to Nicole and JL Thank you for all!!! Thanks Erik !! Patrick, Nancy,Michael,Rosi und Linda . Wir kommen wieder in 2 Jahren. See you!!!
