Most fun and relaxing vacation I have had in many years

My wife and I and our two kids stayed at this resort in March of 2011. There is a new tower at the resort and I spoke with people who stayed in different rooms in different locations and they told me the following:
a) the side facing the resort enjoys the fresh smell of a sewer.
b) the expensive side facing the ocean directly, enjoys the disco that opens at 10 pm and closes at 3:00 am.
c) the side facing away from the resort enjoys the sound of new resort being built about 50 yards away.

We stayed in the Pelican buidling - it was the best because it was away from all of the noise. However, our room had mold on the ceiling and felt constantly damp.

The food was adequate but nothing to write home about.

The service looked great for the locals, but as a guest it really lacked.

Curocao itself is a great island - choose another resort.

we took a group of 18 divers with us to Curacao for Holiday last may for 10 days. The resort was ok. the food was good but the drinks were few and far between EVEN WATER.. we always asked for 3-5 at a time as they gave them to you in a very small glass . The adult drinks were 1 shot limit(resort rules) very bad idea and the employees would get fired if they caught them giving you more.
The rooms were kept clean and the beach in front of the resort was very nice.There is not a lot to do at night the shows end around 9 ish.
Our favorite night was when they opened all the restaurants and you could sample the food. DINE IN THE PRIVATE RESTAURANTS make resevations early!!!!
The diving was ok not like the reviews state we were dissapointed with the mushroom forest. The dive guides really did not show you much they mostly where in there own world. That said they were very nice just did not seem very knowledgable of the dive sites unlike other places we have traveled...I would not hesitate to go if you have not been to curacao at least once. We will not go back again

Met 4 couples who were robbed - one right on the beach as they laid there! Security does nothing. Didn't feel safe. Know of several people who got raw chicken, burgers, and fish - they are not careful with food. (I got a raw burger but threw it away) Several people had illnesses as a result of this (likely) and knocked 2-3 days off their vacation because of carelessness of the resort food-prep staff. If you are going for a quiet time DO NOT STAY at the Royal tower - they have ongoing construction right beside the hotel there, night club is in that building at it isn't quiet, and it's right next to the booming speakers that blast terrible music all day long. We were forced to go on the airport shuttle 6+ hours before the flight took off. What a rotten thing to do at the end of someone's vacation. The airport check-in staff wasn't even open, so we had to wait in line (standing) for 2 hours, and then another 4 hours for the flight. Breezes blamed Sunquest, Sunquest blamed Breezes. Nothing was done. I will never use Sunquest again, ever. Check out of the hotel was done by a miserable person (Jo-Ann I think was her name) No smile, no thanks, no appreciation - just - 'You are checked out now.'
