The Royal Sea Aquarium Resort

The location and view were exceptional. The restaurant on site was great for breakfast and lunch but dinner was poor, the food was not up to standard but the night view from the restaurant was awesome. The suite we stay at was more than we bargained for, fully equipped to cook if you go with a large group. The only disadvantage was the moisture if the room doors were left open. Would be nice to sit out on the veranda and watch the beautiful sun set with some ac streaming outside to cool down. Would recommend 100%. The hotel also has a shuttle for a night trip down to Punda and to the grocery. On the opposite side there is lots of restaurant, cafe and night life heading to Mumbo Beach. The Sea Aquarium is right on site and relatively cheap to attend the dolphin shows etc.

We booked this place due to its location. It was close to where the family was getting scuba certified. The beach was clean and nice. The beds were comfortable and pool was well maintained. Maid staff were all super nice and did great cleaning up the room. We also really liked that we can use air conditioning and it was not based on usage. The full size fridge was fantastic but needs ice trays. There was dual Euro and USA plugs so that was helpful. Restaurant onsite does not belong to the hotel but had good food. But you can't charge to the room. Only the bar by the pool. It was walking distance to Mambo Beach and all the restaurants and shopping was nice as well. Also was able to get an onsite/beachside massage. The lady does different things on different days and you book at the front office and can charge it to the room. She gave a great massage. There is also a shuttle that comes each day you can sign up for that will take you to the local grocery store which is very well stocked. If you rent a car the city is close, lots of restaurant options less than 10 min drive.

Fab location, quiet but close to all the Mambo Beach bars & restaurants. View of aqaurium & dolphins from our room. Very comfy beds & great pool & private beach area. Staff were very helpful & friendly, especially Chris.

Soft beds were comfortable. Seems like every room has a view of the ocean. Cool that you can watch the dolphins at the aquarium from the resort stairway. Very convenient that housekeeping will exchange towels and take the garbage on a daily basis. Free shuttle takes you to the supermarket or into Willemstad. Restaurant on property is open for breakfast, lunch and dinner.
