Hello,
I want to write a review of the Lions Dive Beach resort in Curacao. Frist impression: Not good. We arrived in Curacao around 2 or so in the afternoon. Upon arriving at the hotel, we were informed that our room was not ready and could we come back at 4:00 p.m. We were not allowed to register and were not asked if we wanted to leave our suitcases while we waited. Luckily, our daughter's room was ready and we were able to store our luggage until 4. The couple beside us were asked if they wanted to store their luggage and register right away. We were not offered this option. Very bad first impression.
The resort and private beach are very nice but if you don't find any shade you're out of luck. I did not appreciate the one or two women who decided to sunbathe topless in front of my 10 year-old and 8-year old grandsons! One or two topless sunbathers out of a 1,000 draws attention. Is that really necessary? I understand it's the European way, but Lion's dive should remember that they have guests from all over the world and nudity is not necessarily the norm.
Our room was OK. However, we had trouble getting towels and the room was definitely not cleaned properly. By day 3 the bathroom definitely needed a good scrub (10 year old who misses the toilet at times). We had a great view of the beach (which we upgraded for $700 or so for two rooms). Breakfast buffet was the same everyday, but OK. Food prices are outrageous in general (for example, a piece of cheesecake costs US$10.00? I can make a large cheesecake for that price!
The dolphin academy is also expensive for dolphin encounters. Granddaughter was really disappointed when we could not pay the $200 price tag per child for a dolphin swim. Luckily, when we were visiting, I was able to purchase a dolphin encounter for my three grandchildren for US$50 per child, including photo of dolphin kiss. They loved it!
All in all, I feel that it would be much better to go to Sunscape for the all-inclusive Sun Club option and eat out two or three times. It would definitely be cheaper!response / report this review -

Beautiful location: romantic beach with romantic sunsets, save diving, close to aquarium, restaurants, party and shopping areas, lots of cool/pretty animals nearby. Employees were very professional: friendly, relaxed but efficient, perfect Dutch and English (Papiamento is the local language). Other languages some people learned: Spanish, French and German.

I was charmed by the understated eloquence of this place from the Al fresco dining to the beautifully well kept grounds. Although we did not sign up for an all-inclusive package, we did not venture from the resort very often as we found almost everything we wanted right there! Free shuttles going to the nearby grocery and the downtown Willemstad area made it possible for us to avoid renting a car. The concierge can set you up with a few interesting events to get to know the island.

This place is good for relaxing and it has a great escape from all the stress, but it lacks of entertainment. The car rental there has a great personal with allot of carisma, you should ask for Carlos he will get you the car that you need or give you a great offer. But truly we can say we had a wonderful vacation.

Beach and the water are very nice. Calm blue water. Rooms are OK, there are better places on the island but everything you need us right here and you do not need car. Dive shop owner is a dick.

Stayed here for 2 weeks and loved it! You be if the best beaches on the island is here. Lovely snorkeling right on the beach, scuba shop less than 3 minutes from our room!
Live music on dedicated nights at hemingway's, clean and relaxing.
Great price-quality ratio.
