Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
When I booked my stay at the Scuba Lodge, I did not know what to expect. I went there with my husband to celebrate my 60th birthday. Needless to say, it surpassed all my expectations- From the outstanding service at the reception and housekeeping staff to the spacious 2- bedroom oceanfront condo. The view from the balcony was spectacular. Not only was the pool absolutely tranquil, but the secluded cove steps away provided an experience of serenity that I truly needed. As far as the location, the restaurants, shopping and tourist sites were all within walking distance. I would highly recommend the hotel to anyone seeking a down- to -earth beachy island vibe with good food and excellent staff.

A great location for a stay in Willemstad. It is clean, friendly staff and is really fantastically located on the Caribbean Sea. We stayed 2 nights and slept the first night in room 27. A beautiful and spacious room with a balcony at the front. However, a big disadvantage is that it is located on the street side and therefore very noisy at night due to the heavy traffic passing by. The next night we rebooked to a room on the garden/sea side and slept well there. This room was also fine with a terrace on the garden side. Recommended if you do not take a room on the street side!

Third time to this boutique hotel in 2 years. Convenient for scuba diving as there is a dive shop 100 feet from the property. The staff at Scuba Lodge are friendly and accommodating. There are 2 pools (small) on the property with one (infinity) overlooking the ocean. The food is excellent, great coffee and croissants. I plan to return sooner than later

Loved the staff at this property and the unique rooms in the old buildings. Now, the name is misleading… hotel really doesn’t have anything SCUBA related and that was one of the reasons we chose it. No tanks, no scuba gear drying… the neighbouring dive shop does use the garden pool but with the lack of parking using that shop was not a good choice for use. Don’t get me wrong, LOVED Scuba Lodge but if you’re a diver and thinking they cater to divers given the name that is not the case. This could be fixed with drying bars (racks don’t work for heavy gear), on site gear lockers and tank depots. If you want personalized treatment, clean rooms, beautiful walkable location, AMAZING staff - this is the place.

We absolutely love Scuba Lodge! Have stayed here 2 times of our 3 visits to the island. The staff are awesome, the restaurant is delicious and the rooms are spectacular. I always have a lot of questions, etc and the communication from the front office is amazing. We have stayed in the 2 bedroom ocean view apartment twice, and it is one of the best rooms we've ever stayed in. We will always stay with them when we visit. I cannot say enough about the resort and the staff!

The staff here are AMAZING! Ok, night one termites hatched and our room had flying bugs. Ghislaine came to our room and moved us. Room 2 was beautiful but right on the street where construction crews arrived bright and early every morning and where restaurant patrons are basically 15 feet from your bed (outside on a patio not the room)… and they’re having a lovely time but have to talk over the sound of the generator (yep, neighbouring property only had generator power). Staff moved us to our third room of week one. None of these things were their fault and they were amazing coming up with solutions for us. This was a surprise 75th birthday trip. Family arrived week 2. Two standard rooms were changed to a 2 king in suite ocean front ground floor apartment. They moved my husband and I while we were away, got family in position, delivered food, a bday cake and decorated our room. It was truly a surprise and they pulled it off! I’d go back just for the way the staff treated us! The staff here is what make the property. The property is truly unique and delightfully small. The grounds are immaculate and beautiful. Housekeeping keeps everything neat and clean. The bedding is sparkling white. Ok. Of the 4 beds, only one had a good mattress… most were tired and should be replaced. Also, being an historic property there are signs of age which need to be addressed but when your staying in a building built in 1897 you shouldn’t expect brand new.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Scuba Lodge! Upon entry into reception we were treated like family. From reception staff, housekeeping and maintenance everyone was lovely. We loved our 2 bedroom apartment, which had two bathrooms, a half bath, washing machine and kitchen facilities. The area surrounding the Scuba Lodge is very walkable with many of bar and restaurants in the area, along with a restaurant and bar onsite. The bar and restaurant at the Scuba Lodge food and drinks were good. Service was slow and disorganized and needs to be more streamlined and attentive but worth the stop. We loved the Scuba Lodge and will be back.
