Wow….its almost impossible to put in writing how magnificent this place is! I think it’s the best place I have ever stayed. The plantation is beautiful. The grounds are full of flowering shrubs, different kinds of birds and an easy walk to the salt marshes to view the flamingos.
Our bedroom was private with lots of room. The bed and linens were so comfortable that I slept like a baby. Using the homemade soaps was such a nice touch. Each night fresh water infused with lime or cucumber was delivered to our room. It’s all these extra efforts that made our stay so special.
The best part of our vacation is that Loeki (the host) made us feel like family. She makes this boutique hotel more than a 10 out of 10. She bakes muffins, loafs and cakes fresh each morning while she effortlessly makes cappuccinos and coffees for each guest. She whips up individual requests for breakfasts that is made from scratch. We ate like royalty and loved all the fresh fruit that was offered. I’m positive that I gained weight in a week just from her outstanding breakfasts. She was also very conscientious about my peanut and tree nut allergy.
This was our first visit to Curacao. Loeki, gave us so many great tips for beaches, restaurants and special places to check out. We definitely would not have had the ability to truly experience the island without her inside knowledge of the best places to visit.
We will definitely be coming back to Curacao and to Plantation Jan Thiel Lodge. It’s paradise! ❤️
