Secluded Oceanfront Villa - Luxury + Great Diving

Our family recently returned from a wonderful stay at Surrender. The property, house and view are amazing; the pictures honestly aren’t able to do them justice. The house is located at the end of the Kura Hulanda Lodge Property, with access through a manned, gated entrance which provides a nice added sense of security and privacy. The house itself is beautifully built with high-end finishes throughout. Together with the fully stocked kitchen (complete with a built-in Nepresso machine), general supplies provided, infinity pool, stairs down the cliff to the ocean, and one of the most amazing, serene views, you may not want to leave the property. However, do try to pull yourself away as there are many unique beaches and activities in the area. Some of our favorite beaches included Little Knip, Playa Lagun (beautiful sunsets!), and Boka Santu Pretu. Also, if you are up for a bit of a hike and more amazing views, Mt Cristoffel was a pleasant surprise (while a bit difficult, even our 6 year old made it to the top with some help). If you like a relaxed, less touristy area to explore and discover, this side of Curacao is an excellent choice. You won’t find a more perfect place to call home while you’re there (just make sure you pick up some groceries and gas on your way out of town toward the West End).

Surrender is truly a little piece of paradise! We had a group of about 6 girls and it was perfectly accommodating. With such a large group, we utilized the kitchen almost every day. Everything was modern and clean, the best part was the built in Nespresso machine. My mornings consisted of drinking coffee, sitting on the patio, looking out at a completely unobstructed view of the ocean. Between the cliff diving and local restaurants, there was plenty to see and do but some of my favorite memories were at the house itself, cooking out on the grill, looking out at what seemed to be an endless ocean. The property is beautifully maintained, with gorgeous landscaping and an amazing backyard. The infinity pool and surrounding patio is tranquil and relaxing, again with amazing views of the ocean everywhere you look! If you're looking for a 5 star escape from the every day hustle & bustle, this is the place. Thank you for such a wonderful experience, I will be coming back soon!

Surrender Villa offers the ideal opportunity for anyone seeking a luxurious respite from civilization. The Villa sits atop a windswept cliff at the Western most point of the Island. The ocean is your vast and unencumbered backyard. Sunsets can be enjoyed from the outdoor patio, the infinity pool or the comfort of the plush couch in the central living room. During our stay, there were no bugs, no humidity, no distractions. The layout of the Villa, spread out on a single floor, encourages communal interaction while also affording privacy and solitude. The kitchen is well equipped and is complimented by a patio grilling area. With the availability of having fish caught that day delivered to the Villa, there was no reason to seek out local restaurants. It is rare to truly experience a hassle free vacation but my stay at the Villa was just that. I look forward to returning soon.

I stayed with some friends and all I can say is that vacation was simply unforgettable! The house was perfect, spacious, inspiring and most comfortable. It is located alone on a magnificent cliff overlooking pristine wide ocean, with a few spots from where we took big jumps to the water and there is also great walking stairs leading down the cliff into the water. There was also a lovely pool and a huge deck looking at the ocean. We cooked in the house and the kitchen was huge, modern and very well equipped. Every hour of the day felt magically different. The house was well prepared when we arrived and the owner of the house made sure we had all information pertaining to practical aspects on the island and related to the house. It was one of my best vacations ever and i plan on having my next vacation there again in the near future.

Wow! My stay at Surrender Villa marked my first time visiting Curaçao. Usually when I travel, I am quite antsy. I want to explore the entire area; bike, hike, sample the local restaurants, etc. At Surrender Villa, I never wanted to leave the property. My mornings began by joyously preparing breakfasts in the spacious, inviting kitchen, while graced by the soothing trade winds. Whether dining inside or outside, the views were mesmerizing. Words cannot adequately describe the exhilaration I experienced when diving off the ten foot cliff, and jumping from the 28 foot cliff (or call it 30, if you want) into the Caribbean Sea. The feeling of having the ocean to myself as I watched the property from the sea felt other-worldly. One of my favorite times was late evening, around sunset. Enjoying a final swim in the ocean, or desalinizing in the pool while the sun meditatively drifted onto the horizon, was unforgettable. The remote location on the island, away from ambient light, allowed for optimum stargazing upon nightfall. My five days at Surrender Villa felt timeless. It is aptly named, as I completely surrendered any concerns or worries that I typically carry in my day-to-day life. Additionally, I felt more spiritually and emotionally open to life and to others during this transformative vacation.
