Curacao is one of the Caribbean's best kept secrets, just off the coast of Venezuela, encircled by the usual suspects of the eastern and southern Caribbean cruise circuits. It boasts the same white sand beaches and crystal clear snorkeling waters as the neighbouring island of Aruba, with less exposure and more room to sprawl. Sunscape Curacao Resort Spa & Casino brings all-inclusive luxury to the serene shores of this 38-mile long island, where you can relax in style just 10 miles from the airport and two miles from the historic, Dutch-influenced capital of Willemstad.

Sunscape Curacao has a wide range of activities to fill your sun-soaked Caribbean days; from tennis courts, beach volleyball, rock climbing, and four pools to a fitness centre, spa, sauna, and steam room. Mornings can be energized with in-room coffee and a nice hot shower, and the dining options on site will sustain your energy until the last song is played at the disco or the last jackpot is won at the casino.

Learn a new skill by trimming a sail and setting out on the Caribbean Sea, or take advantage of the snorkeling opportunities and traverse the shoreline dotted with colourful fish and seashells. You can also head into Willemstad to explore the markets and museums of this former capital of the Dutch Antilles.

There are four restaurants on site, including three a la carte options and one buffet for those indecisive moments. Eateries offer Pan-Asian, Italian and seafood favourites, and snacks and domestic, international, and premium brand beer and liquor are available from three different bars. Rooms come with air conditioning, making the perfect refuge for nighttime or a midday siesta, as well as a satellite TV and a balcony or a terrace where you can enjoy views of the guests enjoying the grounds or kayaking through the vast Caribbean Sea.
