Visited Curacao for 5 days. Solid experience. Scene is active. Pricing excellent value.
Spent $68/day. Best part: friendliness.
Overall: 8.5/10. One of my favourites.
AMA.
Is Curacao worth visiting?

Not sure I agree about that area. I found downtown to be better value.

I'd also recommend downloading Grab before you go. Essential.

Good info. I'd add that going during the week is much better — less crowded, better prices.

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