Pluses-Very nice beach, nice calm water conducive for shallow-water snorkeling. Room was fine, reasonably clean. Close to town, shuttle to town and to a nice supermarket. Negatives-desk staff not well-trained or knowledgeable, food at Hemmingways including breakfast just adequate. You get very little help as far as orientation. More

Staff were rude, food was average, room was basic. Not many emenities, European power outlets were not mentioned at all on website or in telephone conversations with staff. We were charged for the in room safe even though we never used it. Will never stay here again. More

Us: American Family of 4, kids age 7 and 10. 6th Caribbean vacation. The pros: Great location with large beach areas protected by man-made breakwall. Plenty of seating seaside. Good off-beach snorkeling around breakwall. Resort offers three restaurants (Hemingways, Nemo, and Piazza). Nemo's is more upscale and more expensive, but offers very good meals. Piazza is more lite fare, but... More

We enjoyed our first visit to Curaçao quite a bit, but were somewhat satisfied with Lions Dive -- which has strong points and at least a few challenges. --> BEST ASPECTS: Ideal setting on a clean, ample-size beach with walk-in snorkeling (superb, thanks to breakwall with submerged plant growth that's a fish magnet). Plenty of adjustable loungers with cushions, thatched-roof... More

We liked the Lions Dive a lot! The apartment we stayed in was wonderful, great for families with children like us, two bedrooms with two bathrooms and a kitchen! And let's not forget the lovely balcony and living area overlooking the pool and ocean! The staff at the resort was friendly, sometimes a bit slow (in the restaurants) but very... More

Lions Dive is pretty much as-advertised and quite an impressive facility. There are a *lot* of rooms, several on-site restaurants/bars, clean and sheltered beach with lots of chairs and palm trees. You can have a pretty self-contained vacation here. I did feel like they nickel-and-dime you for things like safe keys, etc., which I would expect to be included for... More

My vaction at the Lions Dive & Beach Resort was simply amazing. This resort is all about location! Within 10 minutes you're in downtown Willemstad with the free bus for hotel guests and you're within walking distance from nice restaurants and bars at the beach next to the resort. Don't miss the happy hours on Sunday, they were great! We... More

This was our second stop during our ABC-honeymoon trip. After being spoiled by the Bucuti on Aruba, we were interested to see what this hotel will be like. We had been to Curacao before, but stayed at the Habitat (very disappointing), which is quite off from everything else on Curacao. So we decided to stay closer to Willemstad and after... More

If you like a beautiful, sandy, palm tree beach with great snorkeling and a very laid back atmosphere - you like Lion's Dive Hotel. You get to eat breakfast, lunch and dinner on the sandy beach under a roof, under a palapa or under the stars. But be prepared to spend a LOT on food and drinks. We were quite... More
