The property was beautiful and I loved the tropical oasis feel! We loved having the beach club access so close as well as a short drive to Willemstad. My only complaints were the air conditioner couldn’t keep up with the heat, and the bathroom drains smelled bad. These were both minor issues; I would definitely stay here again! The beach bag was such a nice touch! We stayed in the bungalows.
We have travelled a lot and seeing Kontiki online seemed to be a dream come true so when we attended the hotel in person it was even nicer than we anticipated. Surpassed our expectations,
Pools were lovely, the beach chairs, the beach and staff were all wonderful.
Beautiful location, central to all the night life. You can go on the beach at night- felt safe. Kind staff, the furniture needs some cleaning. Overall it was a good experience
Upon coming into the hotel we were greeted warmly. The staff was very kind. The amenities were a plus. The only issue I had was that we were not told ahead of time that there would be construction going on during my stay at the property. Besides the construction I enjoyed my stay on the resort.
The King ocean view suite was a 10/10 at Kontiki. It exceeded my expectations from the shower to our balcony pool. The downside were the beach beds on the resort. Many of the beach beds had mold, mildew and stains on them.
Location was perfect, we loved being right on the beach. The breakfast was nice. The only thing we didn’t like about this hotel was how loud the music was at night with the night clubs and the pillows were also not the best.
I feel like this hotel is underrated. It was everything I wanted it to be. We got married on 9/22/26 and though I was worrried about the details coming together, it worked ut perfectly on Mood Beach. We stayed in a regular room but it had a big bath tub and a nice porch. We loved our spacious, clean room, and the pool. The grounds were breathtaking and the location was perfect, right by Mambo beach. The food was excellent for dinner and drinks and the staff all very attentive!
Everything else was magical for our wedding and honeymoon. This place was exactly the vibe and type of place I was looking for and I would go back for sure! We fell in love with the hotel and Curaçao.
Breakfast was good! The only thing is that they’re definitely on island time, so expect your food to take a little longer to come out (a good hour)The room was clean, although I couldn’t figure out how to control the air conditioning, so it did get a bit cold at night. Parking was free, which was a nice bonus!
It’s a beautiful resort. I loved the welcome Kontiki Beach bag and note!! Love the natural pools. Loved having the option to walk out room and get to the pool. It was off season so often times I had to myself. I only wish there were option for food after 10pm on resort. Was food near by in walking distance until about 1130pm
Staff was very helpful, getting baggage and assisting with transfer I had planned for an activity off resort. I can’t wait to stay again! Once again it was beautiful
The check-in and first night of my room situation were kind of stressful. But the staff went above and beyond to make everything right. The property was gorgeous and I loved everything about it. The food, the beaches, the pools and the vibes were worth it! I'd do it again!
First time at this property. Very diff vibe than other places. Very tropical and secluded. Love the stone pools and paths. Gym was off site, but very nice and only a 5 min walk. Beach was clean and nice place to snorkel for novices. All the staff were fantastic. Everyone was friendly and helpful. Will def stay here in the future.
Omg my friends and i had the best time here! The staff was amazing, friendly and helpful, the room although from the outside wasn’t wat we thought but once we got inside it was gorgeous! It’s by a lot of things like shops, beaches and restaurants. The staff was my most favorite! I hate that we had to leave seriously! From the driver who picked us up from the airport to key Shawn and his twin brother who greeted us everyday. I’m so sad our trip is over. This was by far the best place i ever visited! Will be back soon! Thank you so much!!!
The place is beautiful, it is like being in a piece of paradise. The facilities are very pretty and clean, with its lagoon-style pools and its vegetation making the place a very pleasant stay. The staff is super attentive, and the cleanliness in the rooms and in the hotel complex in general is very good. Our breakfast was included in the price we paid, and to be honest all the à la carte dishes were exquisite and very well prepared. highly recommended if you visit Curaçao. The hotel is very near to the capital and is located on Mambo Beach, a beach with great vibes and lots to do. Thank you Kontiki. Thank you Curaçao.
I stayed here for my birthday. My experience was pleasant. We booked the beach front suite with pool. perfect layout and access to beach. The staff members were helpful and nice. Free parking! I would def come back. The only downfall is not all inclusive. I would at least love the option of unlimited drinks. We paid well over 2k for our 4 days stay. Other than that no complaints.
Staff is really nice! I wanted to love this place but unfortunately, where our room was, we were woken up everyday around 6AM to some kind of alarm going off for about 10 minutes on and off. We had shoe prints on the ceiling in the bathroom, and the tv barely worked. The beach beds did not have the QR codes as said so we waited for a long time for service. The food was- sadly .. not good in our opinion.
The grounds at the hotel are beautiful. The room was nice and very clean. The beach is gorgeous and never had an issue finding a chair to lounge on. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and definitely would return to The Kontiki if we ever go back to Curacao.
