Where do I start? Leoki was the most amazing host I have ever experienced. This Bed and Breakfast was away from tourist areas, very quiet and relaxing. I truly loved the atmosphere. The grounds crew were friendly and courteous as they worked and were also. I have no complaints at all.
Loekie is the best hostess. So warm and helpfull.
Don't mis the home made breakfast, made fresh every morning.
We loved the tranquillety at the landhuis and the beautiful sunsets. You feel at home.
Absolutely amazing stay at Plantation Jan Thiel lodge. The lodge has so much character and is located in a beautiful setting. If I could give a Michelin star to Loeki, I would — the breakfasts were out of this world made with fresh local Ingredients and or so flavourful and healthy. All the staff were courteous and very nice.
We had a wonderful four nights at Jan Thiel Lanhaus. Beautiful surroundings and a fantastic host! Thank you Loeki for making our trip to Curacao so memorable. Looking forward to returning soon.
The hostess was amazing, she is attentive a great conversationalist and exceptional cook! I don’t know how she does it all!
The atmosphere, views and variety of commons spaces for where to choose where to relax is great. The resident fur babies (dogs) add a comforting presence as well. Thank you so much for a wonderful stay!
Great job from Loeki(manager). Beautiful place to stay nearby Willamsted. We particully loved the swimming pool/the flamingos lake(nearby)/the big table outside where we ate breakfast(good food from Loeki)/ and the front aera where to see the sunset. Thanks for everything!!
Mention: I bumped into the light nearby the bed in the Turquoise room_need to put higher.

I had a lovely stay. the lodge is very peaceful, surrounded by nature. Maxime is super friendly and helpful.
Excellent choice for family or solo travelers like me.
The manager Loeki, was fantastic! Like visiting your favorite relative. Very knowledgeable and friendly. The setting is very comfortable and relaxing. Close to the salt flats and flamingos which made a great easy walk. This is a gated facility ensuring privacy of the guests. Would highly recommend!
We had a wonderful time staying here, the property was nice and spacious and clean. It has access via a trail to walk down to the salt flats and see the flamingos. The hostess was wonderful and very nice making us a delicious breakfast every morning, as well as giving us great ideas and tips on where to go.
Beautiful property, quiet and spacious. The host Loeki was excellent and made us a delicious breakfast every morning. We had a great stay and felt sad to leave.

The place was amazing, very clean, private and spacious. Our host Loeki was wonderful, very helpful and made us an awesome breakfast, wish we could have stayed longer! Great hospitality !!! Thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
This property is the perfect place to unwind and be at one with nature in the serene surroundings. What makes it extra special is the hospitality that the host, Loeke provides. The breakfasts are made to order, at your leisure, and the conversation, even better. I can’t wait to visit again.
Fantastic and can’t wait to go back. The hosts are so friendly and helpful. The entire property is unique and a little paradise on paradise. We liked watching the sunset from the main house patio area. We stayed in the little cottage we’re so comfortable and loved the private pool and outdoor shower. We liked talking with the other guests from all over the world over breakfast and sharing island experiences. It is a very peaceful and quiet place with house animals as an extra bonus.
Excellent, very nice property, to relax in a place as clean as it is cozy. without a doubt highly recommended. I would return. We feel at home, absolute familiarity.
Our family of four (two adults and two kids 9 &5) stayed for a week at Plantation Jan Thiel. It was a excellent home base to explore the island from. Loeki is a fantastic host who made us feel at home. She provided loads of great tips for beaches to visit, activities for the kids and restaurants to try. The property is beautiful with an easy walking trail down to see the flamingos at the salt flats, a great pool with comfortable lounge chairs and large terraces to enjoy the view and a cocktail after a long day in the sun. I highly recommend staying here!
I absolutely L-O-V-E it here! I will only stay at Plantation Jan Thiel Lodge as long as Loeke is the Hostess. She is AMAZING! If you want an authentic island experience, look no further! This is your final destination.

We absolutely loved this property! It is so beautiful and peaceful. The hostess Loeki was so welcoming and made us felt right at home. She made the most amazing breakfast with fresh ingredients from the property. She always had cold water infused with different fruits or mint which was appreciated after a hot day. I would highly recommend this property when visiting Curaçao!
Loekie's place was AMAZING. We cannot say enough about how wonderful she is, the pups are, the property is, the meals are, and the hospitality. WOW. Staying here made our vacation. The location is ideal, too - you are close to many things and have great walking trails in the park just behind. The pool was refreshing. We cannot wait to come back.
My stay at the Plantation Jan Thiel Lodge was nothing short of amazing! The property is beautiful, quiet, and very inviting with many areas to relax. The rooms are spacious, clean, colorful, and the bed was super comfortable. Loeki is the best host and an incredible chef too - I couldn’t wait to have breakfast every morning. I highly recommend it and will definitely come back soon! :)
