My experience was quite mixed. I had a bad encounter with the cancellation policy, which left me feeling frustrated, while another stay revealed a massive discrepancy between room types. However, there were also moments of joy, especially with the penthouse suite, which was lovely and spacious. Ultimately, the property could definitely benefit from more consistent quality across its accommodations.

I had an amazing stay at Pietermaai Boutique Hotel in Curacao. The apartment was absolutely stunning, with breathtaking sea views and plenty of space for my daughter and me. The location was perfect for exploring the area, and I felt safe walking around. However, the only downside was a minor issue with replenishing washcloths, and a warning that the area can get noisy on certain nights.

The property boasts a clean and inviting pool area, along with a cozy garden, making it a pleasant escape. The staff are accommodating, and the internet connection was reliable. However, there are significant noise issues from nearby restaurants that make for poor sleeping conditions, and the breakfast options were quite limited. Additionally, the presence of cockroaches was rather unsettling, and the housekeeping could use some improvement.

We had an amazing stay at this cozy boutique hotel! The rooftop apartment with a sea view was a real treat, providing a comfortable and stylish space to relax. The Pietermaai district was vibrant, with plenty of cozy bars and restaurants nearby. The only minor drawback was that air conditioning was only available in the bedrooms, but it didn't take away from our experience at all!
