Good breakfast, good rooms. Would have scored higher but sunbed situation is a joke. Not enough for the number of guest but 16 sat empty everyday as they were under palpas which the hotel wanted to charge $50 to rent…not surprisingly nobody ever rented one!!

We had a lovely stay in a 3 bedroom villa at Livingston Jan Thiel. We loved that it seemed newly renovated and was very private. We loved our outside terrace with the hammock, couch and eating area. The pool area is lively and a short walk to the beach! The beach passes were great. One disappointment was that there were no laundry services available as advertised but staff recommended M R laundry around the corner and they were great and did the laundry for us for a small fee! The fact that there is a grocery store and restaurants right near this resort is so convenient. The kitchen had things for basic cooking but we would have loved a toaster and baking sheet. Overall I would recommend and we may go back ourselves!

Our first visit to Curaçao did not disappoint…it was fantastic! Livingstone Jan Thiel is a wonderful resort. Great staff, very clean, great amenities, lots of chairs around the pool. The food was excellent. It’s less than a five minute walk to the beach with tons of restaurants, bars and beach chairs. The snorkelling is incredible. Would recommend this resort over and over. We will be back :)

The room was clean throughout the duration of our stay. Staff were curtious and were helpful. Breakfast menu was better offering several varieties. Pool is usable from 7AM to 7PM. The resort provides with passes to visit Jan Thiel Beach and Mondi Beach which usually require purchases. Overall a better stay for your money. Book early to avoid higher rates.

Our villa was everything we needed, it great condition, clean and had mostly everything we needed. We loved the location and the staff tried to accommodate us every time we had a need. To note, we started in a street side room and it was way too noisy but we were moved and it was a perfect stay. Also note the rooms are cleaned every third day and towels can only be exchanged the next day not multiple times per day. Neither were a big deal for us.
