  • Let’s explore Sandals Royal Curacao, the brand new Sandals property that opened June 1, 2022.
    This is the 16th resort for Sandals and the first one in the ABC Islands. We had an amazing time and hope you will enjoy this look at the resort.
    Note: this was filmed within the first 2 weeks of the resort opening, and it was not 100% complete. If you are traveling later in 2022, 2023, or beyond, take this video with a grain of salt, as it will be complete and look immaculate, like all Sandals properties!

    Thank you for providing detailed information, actual video footage of the property! This will help us decide which room we choose for our vacation. Do you recommend getting a butler room? What is the best room other than, Awa and Kurason? Any concerns about COVID when you arrived?

    • @ACoupleTravelers
      @ACoupleTravelers  ปีที่แล้ว

      You are very welcome! If you can afford Butler, I definitely recommend it! But we typically do Club Level and are happy! The Amante butler rooms are great and in a quieter area of the resort. We didn’t have any COVID concerns!

    Wonderful video thank you for posting. I’m wondering if you accidentally go the bldg #’s 1-8 mixed up… isn’t Bldg #1 the farthest left? Would love your opinion on which BSUP swim up room & bldg you think is best (since you stayed on both sides) thank you again and I look forward to watching the restaurant portion!!

    • @ACoupleTravelers
      @ACoupleTravelers  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Nope! Building 8 is the farthest left when looking at the resort
      There are only 5 BSUP rooms total. Loved the privacy (the SSUP rooms have a path in front so people walk by)
      The ACO side was much quieter at night if that matters. Hope that helps!

    Hi! Thank you so much for the review! I also watched your Dunn’s River review. We put a deposit on Royal Curaçao for our honeymoon and was wondering what your thoughts were on that vs others (Dunn River for instance) for a honeymoon experience. Thanks!

    • @ACoupleTravelers

      Honestly you can’t go wrong with either! Only thing with Curaçao is the swimming area isn’t the best but it didn’t bother us! The last 3 places were great: Curacao, Dunn’s River and South Coast!

    Hey guys great video, it was definitely informative. I booked a trip to Sandals Curacao for next week July 5th (prior to watching the video). My only concern after watching the video was the construction and stuff not being fully opened... I believe you guys went in the beginning of June, the week after the opening... I would assume after almost a month some more stuff would be opened and less construction going on? would love to know your thoughts. thanks again!

The resort is beautiful and the staff goes above and beyond for you. We didn't eat a single bad meal. They really make a solid effort to ensure a great time.

    My wife and I have our honeymoon (woohoo 4 days married) planned for Royal Curacao on July 16 but are nervous about the state of the resort, especially since we are booked in the Club level Melemele walk-out suite. We are debating switching to Sandals Royal Barbados (after watching your videos) with butler service or Sandals Grenada (which we know you havent reviewed yet). We have watched a ton of your videos and were wondering if you think it would be worth it to make the switch?

    • @ACoupleTravelers
      @ACoupleTravelers  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hi Keith! Thanks for watching! Personally, I believe it’s already a completely different resort than when we visited in early June. All the restaurants are now open and the landscaping/construction progress is insane!!
      My own concern is I know there is a storm heading there today. As long as no damage, I think this resort is worth visiting, even now!

    We were there June 8th and we were disappointment 😩 We got downgraded. Most of our excursions got canceled. Bathroom flooded daily. Construction and landscaping going on everyday. Unromantic.
