We stayed at the mangrove resort for a week long vacation in Curacao. The resort is on a nice beach with chairs and umbrellas to enjoy. The rooms were clean and spacious. Room service can every day to straighten up our room and replenish our water and in-room snacks. The drinks at the bar are great as well. They have a frozen drinks bar, a pool bar with mixed drinks and beer and a beach bar. We also had a lot of fun at the waterpark on the resort. Location was good and within walking distance from downtown. We were able to get taxis to other parts of the island to golf and take a jet ski tour. There was a variety of food available as well and four restaurants for dinner, on top of the buffet.

The restaurants are lovely and the beach is wonderfully tranquil.If you are even looking for a quick getaway Curaçao is the place to be to rejuvenate.Ray personifies customer service and always greets with a big smile.He even makes us feel like we are at home away from home.Without the stress.He also anticipates our needs and we want to bring him to the states but he is very loyal to where he is and it shows a lot about his character and is a Ray of sunshine.

We had a fantastic time.The food had lots of choice and was tasty.The bartenders were knowledgeable in their craft. The beach was lovely with a variety of fish and a bunch of turtles. Remember don’t get too close to the turtles. Lastly we spent some time with a manager named Ray who was friendly, kind and informative.

The king cobra slide is very enjoyable. The beach and pool are both relaxing and amazing. Overall, I enjoyed this vacation. Highly recommend.Food and drink were pretty much the same everyday. Sometimes, there is no ice for drinks. Had to wait for clean tables.Not very far from the town, Willemstad.Very safe facilities.There is beautiful sea aquarium.Nice scenery.The rooms were certainly clean, spacious and comfortable. However,the air conditioning could've been colder.m as it was only able to turn up to 22 degrees celsius.

So completely this resort is hit and miss. Here is a breakdown of what we felt the pros and cons were:Pros:* The room we booked was clean and had two balconies with beautiful ocean and pool views.* Check in was a breeze and Debby was so sweet* The two side pools are almost always empty and quiet* The location is stellar, easy 10min walk to all you could want to do in Willemstad* Lobby bar has good, premium liquor* Beach is sheltered and easy to swim, however bring your water shoes as the beach is rocky and that can be hard on your feet!Cons:* It is loud all the time, kids and tons of people during the day and at night the entertainment is overly loud and goes til around Midnight, it will keep you up if you are not a person that can get to sleep in the middle of a lot and bass 🤣* They run out of everything: plates, glasses, tables, reservations, food, beer, mixers, everything - it was not a once in a while it is everyday something is missing or out* There is not enough staff, those that are here work hard but as an example the pool bar served in the pool and out of the pool and was huge with a ton of people there and they never had more than 2 bartenders so getting a drink can take a long time. It also means things are not tidy there is a lot of used items and trash around as they can't keep up* Hard to get a reservation for dinner as none of the restaurants sat more than 1/2 of the tables due to staffingOverall for the price we paid it was fine, middle ups and downs.

I have to give a big thanks to Ray at the Coco Beach pool bar. Our family was on vacation, and Ray went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed.

We liked the local food on the island, the cocktails at the restaurant are too sweet but the staff is nice and accommodating. We also noticed there is no vigilance to keep the resort clean in all areas and while staff is nice there is a lack of urgency or they are simply understaffed. Realistically I would not be back as it’s been described as the cheapest resort on the island but I enjoyed what I could.
