Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
If you have submitted a review for a holiday rental property, we may also ask that you provide us with proof of your stay to ensure that your review is attached to the correct rental property.
Holiday rental reviews collected via the VRBO website (formerly Homeaway) and syndicated to the Tripadvisor website are not currently subject to Tripadvisor’s standard moderation processes.
Learn more about our review moderation.

We had a nice stay in Curacao and The Sands gives you the opportunity to walk into town and eat at some nice restaurants.
The unit was nice. The central air unit went out prior to our arrival, and Petra provided portable A/C units for the bedrooms. One of the units did not work. We were able to sleep relatively well, but you may want to wait until the A/C unit is fixed before visiting.
Overall, a nice stay.

We absolutely loved our stay. The location was great and the private lagoon and view from our condo was unparalleled. Beautifully maintained property that was quiet and peaceful. We would definitely stay here again.

We enjoyed our stay at Petra's beautiful place. The whole complex was well maintained. The flowers and beach were beautifully cared for each day we were there. The accomodations were as described and met our expectations!

When I started looking for a place to stay on Curacao I was looking for a place on the beach. I'm so glad I close this one.
Petra reached out as we got closer to the date of arrival to get our flight information to ensure she'd be there when we got there. She was waiting for us at the unit when we arrived. She gave us a run down of the condo. Showed us how to get in and out of the gated facility (which is cool, it has automatic gates). Showed us the assigned parking spot for our unit. And then gave me her info incase we had any issues.
The unit is fantastic. We had 5 adults. 2 married couples and one single adult. We pushed the 2 twin beds together for 1 couple, the king size bed was amazing. And the room with the single bed was perfect for our group.
The unit had all the amenities that we needed. We cooked breakfast nearly everyday, and cooked dinner a few times as well. We has everything we needed to cook with for all cases.
The unit is ground floor and the back wall is a huge door that looks out onto the private beach and private cove. This was the most amazing part of our stay..... the view, the beach, the snorkeling. It was all right there outside the backdoor. I could sit at the table on the balcony and then walk 10 steps and be on the beach. 15 steps and be in the water. AMAZING. And the snorkeling was great also. Tons of fish. The sea wall on the cove kept the cove calm.
The location is within walking distance of many great restaurants.
We loved it!!!!!

We have gone to many Carribean islands and stayed in many wonderful condos but this one ranks # 1 for us. We have never been this close (just a few steps) to the ocean. It was walking distance to town which was a plus. The kitchen was fabulous for cooking breakfast everyday and could not have been a better dining experience on the patio just steps from the lagoon. There was plenty of shade with several palapas. The pool was refreshing after a day of snorkeling destinations. We enjoyed Serafina, Fish & Joy Bistro, and Rozendaels restaurants just 3 blocks away. We also did a free walking tour of Willemstad which was amazing and turned us on to RustiQ which was a great evening experience with delicious apps and drinks and live music.
We loved the whole vibe of Curaçao every where we went.
We will return!

We stayed at The Strand for the second time, in a different unit from the first time, but we enjoyed it just as much. The location allows us to walk to Punda, the sea is very good, the apartment is comfortable and well equipped. Communication with Petra was excellent
