The room we were given had ants! Don’t worry, the lovely clerk told us, they don’t bite. The room’s door was encrusted with some manner of godawful crud whose composition we couldn’t make out. The floor mat in the bathroom was coming apart. There was a hole in the wall of the bathroom near the outlet. I was told to leave our key in the mailbox if we left early, so I did, but that didn’t stop someone who worked at the facility from calling me that afternoon to ask, in rather charged tones, where the key was. I was supposed to stay here again but cancelled—it’s just not worth it.

My husband and I stayed at the property for three nights and were very impressed with the cleanliness of the place. It was very cute and tastefully decorated. The owner Magdy was so helpful and resourceful. There is a kitchen downstairs for everyone to use which had different spices and all the necessities for cooking. The pool was wonderful to dip into on a hot day. We had a great stay and can't wait to come back again!

Great location for a reasonable cost. Expansion work is going on right now so not all rooms available and some minor inconvenience from the construction. This place will be very good when finished. Nice clean pool, convenient free safe parking, Manager is very helpful.

You could have said it during your stay. and the staff is not a tourist guide, but if you had asked, you would certainly have received a recomendation. we do our best to offer our guests the best at a reasonable price. Breakfast is Free, and how difficult can it be to toast your own bread. Thank you for your review, we are going to work on it

Boca Simon was a great stay, friendly and helpful staff. The place was impeccably clean, and the pool area is a nice treat if you are feeling lazy at any part of the day. Michael who manages the place is very welcoming and knowledgeable of what to do while in Curaçao. He will even make those calls to people to make sure you are taken care of. This place is close to all of the happening areas of Mambo Beach, Punda, Otrobanda, Jan Thiel and Piscadera. I would highly recommend this to anyone looking to go to Curaçao at a bnb style place. I definitely will be back!

Een verborgen pareltje tussen alle touristische dr
We vinden Boca Simon een geweldig guesthouse. Heel gemoedelijk en netjes. Schone kamers, fijne bedden. Gezamelijke keuken, altijd keurig opgeruimd. Toegankelijke beheerder. Dichtbij Punda, maar ook binnen 10 min op Mambo. Ligt in leuke straat paralel met zee/ strand (vlakbij Pietermaai) Lokaal strandje op 1 min lopen. Bekende stranden op 5-15 min lopen/fietsen (Marie pampoen/Mambo enz) leuke eettentjes in de buurt. Geweldig guesthouse op uitstekende locatie. Prima prijs/ kwaliteit verhouding. Een echte aanrader. Wij komen zeker terug.

Prima, heerlijk en goed verzorgd
Een geweldige ontvangst en contact met de eigenaar Magdy. We hadden geboekt terwijl het eigenlijk niet beschikbaar was door bouwwerkzaamheden. De eigenaar heeft het prima opgepakt en we hadden eigenlijk geen last van alles wat er gebeurde op het terrein. Magdy zorgde voor het ontbijt met veel fruit en broodjes. Prima. Keuken is compleet, hoewel wij daar niet gebruik van hebben gemaakt voor koken. We hebben het zwembad goed gebruikt, we hebben 2 mensen gedoopt daar.

Decepção total e arrependimento.
Uma grande decepção! Mau humor do responsável pelo local e também pela pessoa que "cuida" da limpeza. Café da manhã simples demais e broncas por qualquer motivo. Chuveiro sem água quente, sem onde por um sabonete sequer e com mau cheiro que sai dos ralos por causa de muito improviso. NÃO RECOMENDO a ninguém! Procure outros locais na mesma faixa de preço e encontrará coisa melhor. Me senti enganado.

The place is not as in the pictures. Still nice but the pool is not useful, only for decoration. The breakfast is bread with small spreads from small boxes. All as drop of self-service (dish washing, coffee with boiled water from a kettle). All for common use of those who stay there. No cosmetics, only towels in room. The location central, with free parking (on one way road) but not walk distance from city center or beach area. The best thing was a nearby supermarket and the nice reception guy.
