This was our dream vacation. Curaçao is a Caribbean island paradise with white sandy beaches, turquoise waters, and plenty of corals, tropical fish and sea turtles. Morena is located in the southern part of Curaçao near Jan Thiel Bay. It's premise is that of an eco resort, minimizing waste, built on simple architecture, simple materials and solid construction, luxurious without being excessive, all in all tasteful.
the good:
-we rented a 3-bedroom individual cabin, with comfortable beds in the sleeping rooms, a complete kitchen, and a spacious terrace for our meals
-resort organization was top notch with friendly, attentive and diligent staff who attended to our (many) requests, great check-in/out experience
-breakfast and restaurant had all essentials with great food preparation and quality, even accomodating to our dietary restrictions
-gorgeous pool areas and the pool water is kept crystal and clean
-rent a car at competitive rates and drive all around Curaçao (a must to visit the great beaches!)
the bad:
-Mosquito issue (which may be seasonal). We arrived at night and because the cabin lights were on, there were a ton of mosquitos inside. Thus mosquito bed nets and repellent are a must. You learn to always close the bedroom doors
-Cabin design is such that the living room cannot be used at night because there isn't a simple mesh to block insects from following the light inside at night
the ugly:
-really nothing to complain about, this a resort that we do recommend!
