I wanted to take a moment to share my delightful experience at Scuba Lodge City Beach. The location is truly ideal, being close to the airport and within walking distance to various shops, restaurants, and museums, making it easy to explore the area. From the moment I arrived, the staff was exceptionally kind and friendly, ensuring that my stay was memorable. A particularly special highlight was the surprise bottle of champagne they arranged for my 60th birthday. It made my celebration even more unforgettable! I can confidently say that Scuba Lodge City Beach is a wonderful place to stay, and I look forward to returning in the future.

The breakfast menu was good, however a place designating itself a scuba lodge should recognize that breakfast service should be prompt because people have to head off to morning dives.

Simply wonderful !! I totally recommend this place. The room was lovely, quiet and clean. The king bed extremely comfortable. The location is perfect (In the city + in front of the ocean, 2 swimming pool, a beautiful restaurant, what more can I say!), the staff members of Scuba Lodge has also been very helpful (if you need to rent a car-transport from the airport, etc.) everything was so easy. We hope to go back soon!

Purpose of this stay was diving. Dive Center Pietermaai is just 4 doors away from Scuba Lodge. I just walk there and back. Outdoor shower by the pool next to reception was used to rinse off myself and my scuba gear after my dives. Nothing available to hang wet scuba gear out to dry. I just drape my equipment over chairs. Room was comfortable and spacious for me, a solo diver. However the mattresses have a pronounced dip/sag in the middle. Needs new mattresses. Housekeeping was wonderful and food in the restaurant (De Heeren@Sea) was yummy. Punda and Queen Emma pontoon bridge is just a 15 min walk away.

The front desk staff were friendly and super helpful. Loved having access to a smaller pool as well as the infinity pool and the chairs in the sand overlooking the water. We appreciated to location - we were able to walk to/across the floating bridge, and to where the free walking tours were (highly recommend), and walk to some amazing restaurants near by! (Breeze Number 5 was our favorite for steak!).

Boutique hotel on the ocean a short walk to town. Just wonderful. Booked a 2 bed ocean front suite and had the best room there. Huge balcony overlooking the ocean was the star. Had to navigate a narrow spiral staircase up 3 flights but so worth it. Can’t speak to the experience in the other rooms but I know they don’t have as perfect a view. Room was very clean. Restaurant on site is great. Half a dozen other great restaurants within a 5 minute walk. No real beach but the stairs access to the ocean works well. Pools are small but nice. Could use more lounge chairs with shade. Biggest downside was the number of people smoking. Would stay there again in a hot second in the same room.

We stayed here for 6 nights recently, and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The main attractions, in our opinion, are the water access, immaculate grounds and excellent location a short walk from downtown Willemstad (10 min walk). The property is very distinctive and pretty, and my only real complaint would be that they need to oil them main gate as every time it opens it is very loud. We had a ground-level room at the front of the property, and soundproofing is non-existent so you will hear pretty much everything going on outside, but we didn’t spend much time in the room. Bed and bedding was very comfortable. Overall, I highly recommend.
