We rented a two-bedroom apartment that was definitely spacious enough for two couples. Snorkeling in the lagoon right there was fantastic! Lots of reef fishes to see. The beach was a bit rocky to enter thanks to a recent storm washing up fragments of coral.

A wonderful place to stay...from the friendly and helpful check in, to the clean, spacious, well-equipped apartment with balcony overlooking the beach, and the position of Bahia right on the beach with good amenities, restaurant and good snorkelling. Aircon in the bedrooms was great, but a fan in the lounge area would have been helpful. Otherwise all fabulous.

I led a trip for a dive club. The onsite bar and restaurant was very convenient, though some prices were a little high. The Thursday night buffet was excellent. The onsite dive shop was excellent with 24/7 accessible dive storage and rinse tanks. They delivered several rental trucks to us and picked them up. Easy logistics. We would stay here again.

This place is a hidden gem. If you are looking for comfort and convenience, definitely check them out. Peter was an amazing host and made sure that our stay was smooth. He arranged our transport to and from the hotel as well as our car rental. The apartment was equipped with almost everything you need for your stay. The food and drinks from the restaurant were delish! Do yourself a favor and order their fries if anything. After a swim in the Lagun, their fries were just perfect. The place is also nicely located as it isn’t too far from Playa Kenepa and other beautiful beaches. I would definitely come back. You get a whole lot for your buck.

Good for the price and close to the really good beaches in Westpunt. The owners are very nice specially the gentlemen in the dive shop. The service in the restaurant is very slow but I think this is a universal trend in Curacao. Warning there is jelly fish in the Lagun beach specially in the morning.

Bahia is not a 5 star accommodation. It is simple, clean and small. They provided towels for both kitchen and bathroom, dish soap/hand soap and sponges along with basic kitchen items. I was disappointed two separate twin blankets on our pushed together twin beds, and an obnoxious rooster. That being said, Bahia ended up being my FAVORITE place we stayed the entire trip. The beach there was my favorite on the entire island. The snorkeling is great, it's a short walk away, there is always fresh coconuts and it isn't overly busy. It's easy to get shade and there is free chairs for apartment guests. The restaurant was fine, the pancake particularly good, and the cocktails were fab. We had an amazing view of the water and sat on our patio most days for several hours. Besides the rooster, the apartments are quiet and on clear nights there is a great view of the stars. Housekeeping was helpful. After settling in, the two blankets grew on me because the bedroom is small so the A/C is powerful - it was NICE to have two blankets! Peter was the most accommodating host. Our corkscrew broke and he quickly sourced out a new one for us. We had a mix up with out check out dates and he was able to accommodate us staying two extra days. Bahia was the best week of vacation, and my favorite place on the island out of all our weeks there. I would absolutely recommend staying there and I have been raving about it since. I would return to Curacao to come back to Bahia specifically. Thanks, Peter!

Ik heb, denk ik, te hoge verwachtingen gehad van tevoren, want ik had erg naar dit verblijf uitgekeken en het was niet zoals ik had gehoopt. Geweldige lokatie, een van de mooiste plekjes op het eiland, prettig appartement, vriendelijke mensen, huur voor strandbedjes is inbegrepen. En toch wilde het niet lukken... De eerste nacht een strandfeest van locals tot diep in de nacht, Geen oog dichtgedaan. Na de 2e nacht wilden we vroeg vertrekken naar de Christoffelberg maar konden we met de auto het terrein niet af aan want het hek was dicht. En de derde nacht wakker gelegen van vechtende katten. Kleine miertjes in het appartement. Als je buiten het terrein wilt wandelen/lopen wordt je achterna gezeten door honden. En voor gebruik van de airco moet je iedere tik apart bijbetalen. De receptie is maar beperkt geopend en de strandbedjes zijn niet voor half 10 in de ochtend beschikbaar.

Täydellinen
Vietettiin 4 yötä Bahiassa ja paikka on täydellinen. Meillä oli alakerran huoneisto maantasalla ja vaikka patio oli suoraan ravintolaan päin, niin ei se häirinnyt yhtään. Huoneisto oli siisti ja kaikki tarvittava löytyi sieltä. Ravintolasta sai hyvää ruokaa ja henkilökunta oli ystävällistä. Itse ranta on täydellinen sukeltajille sekä snorklaajille. Mieheni teki kaksi sukellusta ja oli todella tyytyväinen molempiin(päivä sekä yösukellus). Itse vuokrasin snorkkelin dive shopista ja kyllä snorklaamallakin näki yhtä ja toista. Bahian lähistöllä ei oikeastaan ole mitään, joten suosittelen vuokraamaan auton, että pääsee näkemään saarta ja käymään vaikka kaupassa, koska ruokakauppaa ei kävelyetäisyydeltä löydy. Omistaja oli todella ystävällinen ja auttavainen. Suosittelen suuresti paikkaa jos kaipaa rauhallisuutta ja hyviä sukelluskohteita.

Lage unschlagbar, ansonsten max durchschnittlich
Die Unterkunft ist eher durchschnittlich, unser Studio war sehr einfach eingerichtet. Gefreut hatten wir uns vor allem auf den in der Buchung versprochenen Balkon / Patio mit Blick auf den Strand. Statt Strandblick gab es den Ausblick auf einen Schotterparkplatz, der Balkon war leider nicht vorhanden. Die Zimmer waren nicht sehr sauber, die Duschhandtücher mehr als abgenutzt und am Ende ihrer Tage. Das Personal ist wenig aufmerksam und reagiert nur sehr langsam auf Bestellungen oder Fragen, dir einzige Ausnahme war Mike, dessen Auftreten und Engagement tadellos war. Das einzige Highlight ist tatsächlich die Lage direkt an der Lagune, aber das Bahia Apartments & Diving wäre schlecht beraten, sich allein darauf zu verlassen. Ich verstehe auch nicht, weshalb die zusätzlichen Gebühren und Steuern, die das Hotel erhebt, bei der Buchung nicht direkt im Preis inkludiert sind, sondern mehr oder weniger versteckt durch einen Hinweis aufgeführt werden. In unserem Fall war sowohl vor der Buchung auf der Website sowie auch danach in der Buchungsbestätigung angegeben, dass die Zahlung der Gebühren und Steuern vor Ort im Hotel erfolgen würde, das Hotel hat aber die Abbuchung direkt nach der Zimmerreservierung /-buchung vorgenommen. Es ist mir also absolut unverständlich und wirkt nicht sehr vertrauensvoll. Alles in allem ist die Unterkunft samt Service nur durchschnittlich bis teilweise sogar enttäuschend.

Tivemos uma ótima experiência no Bahia Apartments. O anfitrião, Peter, é muito simpático. Mike, do staff, também é muito atencioso e divertido. A vista do apartamento família é maravilhosa e a praia Lagun é muito tranquila e boa para snorkel. Além do mais, o hotel fica perto das boas praias de Westpunt. Então, se você estiver de carro (o que é altamente recomendável em se tratando de Curaçao), poderá aproveitar ao máximo o que a região tem a oferecer. Voltaria com certeza.
