About this property

On the edge of a cliff with magnificent views of the Caribbean Sea, private pool

Suitable for couples, family celebrations, wedding anniversaries, friends.

Villa Barbulete is set on the edge of a cliff, 60 meters above sea level and 135 meters from the coastline, in a gated resort overlooking the azure Caribbean sea in the western part of the Island, which is known as the green area , quiet, luxurious, peaceful, beautiful, and totally safe.

Cas About resort, adjacent to Cas Abou beach, is one of the most beautiful locations of the island, or perhaps the most beautiful. A small, quiet and guarded and gated resort with 50 private villas where living is spacious, private and secure.

Curacao has been voted the #1 Destination in the Caribbean by Readers Choices and #1 & #2 every year for scuba diving and snorkeling in the Caribbean. Visibility is well over 100 feet.

Our villa offers you all the opportunities for sunbathing, snorkeling and scuba diving's.

Cas Abou Resort has 2 lovely little private beaches, only accessible to residents , with fantastic diving and snorkeling facilities. One of them right in front of the villa, the other one at a 550 meters ( 600 yards) walk from the villa.

Cas Abou Beach (aka Bon Bini Beach) fully meets the vision that you have of a tropical beach :
white sand, palapaĀ“s ( covered with palm leaf umbrellas) , palm trees and other tropical vegetation.

According to National Geographic Cas Abao Beach ranks 4th of the best beaches of the world: " Ringed by reefs, CuraƧao hides a Caribbean underwater wonderland, and this beach is one of the few sandy ones on the arid island, with a bar and a shop to rent snorkel gear. Slip straight into the shallow crystalline bay alive with sea fans and coral, tropical fish, sponges, sea turtles, and more".

"A pleasantly warm sea with brilliant azure hues especially wonderful light in sunny weather, with world class diving and snorkeling facilities ".

Cas Abou Beach is adjacent to Cas Abou resort.
Cas Abou Beach has a dive shop and licensed instruction.
The villa is fully equipped for maximum 11 guests. It has 5 spacious bedrooms, 4 with kingsize beds and 1 with a kingsize bed and a single bed, 2,5 bathrooms, a huge living room, a fully equipped kitchen and an enormous covered porch with 180 degrees magnificent panorama view facing the Caribbean Sea ! From the private pool you have the same view.

Total living space spans over 4,520 sqft. Plot covers over 17,200 sqft.

At the right side of the villa a unique view on the salt pans of Cas About where graceful flamingos congregate in the inland bay, finding their food in the salt water.

Next to the Dutch kitchen there are at CuraƧao also a large number of international cuisines to find such as Argentine , Brazilian, Thai, Chinese , Japanese, Italian and more. The traditional local cuisine is also increasingly popular with tourists. Here you can for example enjoy delicious stews such as Karni stobĆ” ( with beef ) , Kabritu stobĆ” ( with goat ) , iguana (soup or satellite) or Ā“n CuraƧaoĀ“s bunny.

In Curacao you are almost guaranteed a perfect weather. Curacao is outside the hurricane belt, Tsunami proof, has never in recorded history suffered an earthquake and there are no poisonous animals on the island.
Booking a vacation in Curacao means sunny skies, warm calm water, and refreshing trade winds.

Curacao has the safest drinking water in the world. The drinking water is desalinated and better than the most expensive bottled water. You can drink the water straight from the tap and in any restaurant.

A beautiful, spacious place!!
We appreciated the large space and the well equipped kitchen & BBQ. We got some funky smells from the lagoon near the north part of the property, but for the most part it was fine.

Beautiful Pool and Incredible Views
We loved the pool, the palapa, decks and the spaciousness of the property. We enjoyed a walk and a snorkle at the 'private beach'. We had difficulty getting some of the appliances to work properly and the kitchen faucet to supply hot water. We never did find a manual on the faucet and the property manager had to look it up on line. Basically you pull down a ring at the base of the faucet until a red light appears, then turn the ring and boiling hot water would come from the faucet for a minute or two. The property was large for just 2 couples, but the pool and outside decks were absolutely worth it!!

Great House!
We were a group of 6 adults who recently stayed at Villa Barbulete. House was beautiful and well equipped. We utilized the bedrooms that enabled each couple to have their own private bathroom, and this gave us all total privacy. View from the upper deck was incredible and we spent time in the day watching boats in the sea, and every evening watching spectacular sunsets. Pool was warm and we spent many hours just soaking in it. Els and Ronald were very responsive in answering our questions about the house layout and changing our booking for us when our airline cancelled our original flights. My only complaint, and I know that this has no reflection on them, is that the noseeums were insane. Despite the noseeums, we had a wonderful vacation and if we return to Curacao, would stay at this house again.

Wonderful property. Great birding!
Everything was great and the views were jaw dropping. Wish we could have stayed longer but our trip was cut short due to covid 19. We plan on going back!

Beautiful Curacao
My family had a wonderful trip to Curacao and we canā€™t wait to come back. The views at Villa Barbulete are amazing and the flamingos were icing on the cake.

Host profile image
A working life comes to an end. Where is it better to stay than at our beloved Curacao, where we have 25 years spent our holidays. Not to live there permanently, for that our children and grandchildren are too important. We visit our home four times a year for a period of four to five weeks. If we are not in this paradise it is at your disposal.

Why they chose this property

We have been looking for the most beautiful spot on earth for 25 years.

The right view over the Caribbean Sea. Not too close, not too far, the right height. Villa Barbulete has it all, 60 meters above sea level, 135 meters from the coastline.

You see the matras swim, a school of fish, hunted by barracudas , jumping over the water. But you also look miles away, you see the cruise ships passing by and the cargo ships. In clear weather you can see the Venezuela mountain range.

Adjacent to the famous salt pans of Curacao. From the pooldeck you can watch the flamingos searching for food.

In short: the most beautiful place on earth!

What makes this property unique

The unique view on the ocean and the salt pans,
the space ( 4520 square feet) , the huge covered porch,the proximity of one of the most beautiful beaches in the world, Cas Abou Beach.

Top restaurants at close range, the security of a guarded, closed resort, with peace, space and privacy.

No beach parties, no disturbance of sleep, beautiful nature with, amongst others, hummingbirds and iguanas as regular visitors
