Has anyone been to Curacao recently? Looking for the latest intel.

Specifically interested in:
- Current price ranges
- Best areas right now
- Any safety concerns to be aware of
- Apps or platforms to use

I was there last year and had a great time. Wondering if things have changed.

Planning to go back next month.

Cheers

Spot on with the prices. Matches what I paid recently.

Been there 12 times now. Still one of my top destinations. The friendly atmosphere is what keeps me coming back.

I was there in last month and prices were slightly higher. Spent about $120/day all-in.

My tip: midweek is much better.

Word of caution — watch out for taxi scams at the airport. Other than that, great destination.

Did you use local sites or find girls at the hotel?

How long did it take to feel comfortable and find the good spots?

Good info. Going during the week is much better — less crowded and better prices.

Adding my experience: scene has evolved since pre-COVID. Biggest change: more online activity.

What was your total spend roughly? Trying to budget for mine.
