FLY OUT TO MEET THE CURAÇAO SUN 
​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​FESTIVE TRADITIONS
​​​​​​​Everyone knows that the way to someone's heart is through their stomach. This is definitely true for Curaçao, where food is an important part of life. During the festive season, the focus is on delicious traditional local dishes.

Fancy bringing some Curaçao to the table for the festive season? Here are a few tasty suggestions: Ayaka, a dish originally from Venezuela that is a typical traditional festive snack. It is a type of pasty, steamed or boiled, filled with meat, raisins, dried fruit and olives, wrapped in oiled banana leaves. Finger-licking good! Another delicious dish: Ham di Pasku (Christmas ham). Baked ham, glazed with honey and salt, topped with pineapple and cloves.

PAPAGAYO BEACH HOTEL &      ​​​​​​​​​​​​​​RESORT CURAÇAO TAKES VILLAS TO THE NEXT LEVEL
​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
Always at the forefront of the trends, the villas of Papagayo Beach Hotel & Resort Curaçao have been completely revamped. With their beautiful minimalist black-and-white color palette, the villas offer a serene but luxurious atmosphere. Everything has been thought of and the villas are fully fitted with all conveniences, including air conditioning and a fully equipped kitchen. Enjoy cooking in the air-conditioned kitchen and savour your delicious dinner in the dining room. Or enjoy the balmy Caribbean air on the patio. The private pool has also been overhauled. The sun loungers have been placed right at the edge of the pool, so you can quickly take a dip to cool off and then get back to work on that holiday tan.​​​​​​​ 
A PRIVATE BEACH FOR ZOËTRY CURAÇAO RESORT & SPA
Zoëtry Curaçao Resort & Spa opened its new beach at the end of October. The beach is spacious, with Balinese-style sun loungers, and is easy to reach with a golf cart or a short walk from the resort. Here you will also find an outdoor beach bar with a grill where delicious snacks and cocktails are served.
LIONSDIVE BEACH RESORT HELPS SAVE THE PLANET
The resort has taken not one, but three new measures that contribute to a better world. In recent months, 588 solar panels were installed throughout the resort. LionsDive Beach Resort has also become a proud partner of Pack for a Purpose, an organization that helps travelers make a lasting contribution to the local society of their travel destination. They do this by packing equipment required by locally supported projects.
Last but not least, all guests receive a sustainable water bottle from Join the Pipe, which makes reusable water bottles from sugar cane. These can be filled with Curaçao's delicious, high-quality tap water.
