The region - Cas Abou is surrounded by the Banda Abou region of our dushi Curacao! Along with the best isolated and/or serviced beaches on the island there are plenty of eating options including local, international and fine. It's the undiscovered gem of under-the-radar Curacao! Real-deal Caribbean without the tourists and traffic.

The neighborhood - Cas Abou is an established, exclusive local and international neighborhood. It's focus is on tranquility, nature and privacy. It's not an "up and coming" neighborhood. It's a well kept secret and we've already arrived! Cas Abou is centrally located half-way between the village of Westpunt and downtown/airport. You are surrounded by the best beaches on the island! WITHOUT ALL THE TOURISTS AND TRAFFIC

The cottage - New seaside, salt water, infinity-edged, cocktail pool is ready! Very exciting upgrade to the property! With shaded lounge area right on the sea!
Cliff-high, private sunsets over the Caribbean 365 sets-a-year!

ANOTHER upgrade as of winter 2023-24! Additional 300ft2 of deck over the sea! Newly tiled (out with the wood and in with the tile!) and another palapa area! Take your pick and work out those tan lines OR stay in the shade!

300 ft2 inside, 300 ft2 covered terrace and 450 ft2 open deck - all one level. Private front yard sitting garden and sea-level shaded lounge and salt water splash pool. Private steps into the sea! Purely natural and purely private!

Top-ten Cas Abou beach is right around the corner! And, we've got 2 nice beach chairs, beach matt and a cooler (with freezer packs) so you don't have to rent those either! We love caring for our guests!

Absolutely unique on the entire island! Seaside cottage perfect for a single or a couple wanting to enjoy raw nature in privacy. Built with glass fronted-tile deck, shaded terrace with day bed ON by the sea. Established native, professional gardens. Full a/c when the breeze isn't blowing, indoor and outdoor ceiling fans, gas stove, microwave, toaster, coffee maker, counter top oven, fridge/freezer... And gas grill!

Local and owner created art throughout the property!

Feel the trade winds, listen to the sea and enjoy being part of one of the best, and private, natural settings on the island! Walk down the steps right to your private house reef for swimming, snorkeling, diving or just for a beer and a float! This healthy reef has amazing biodiversity with soft/hard corals close to the surface for snorkelers and mixed topography deeper for SCUBA. Often referred to by guests as the best snorkeliing/diving on the island! Did you just walk right past the infinity edged salt water pool?!! Fresh sea water pumps in twice a day! Time your dip properly and enjoy the waterfall! Huh? What?! WOW!

This cottage is simply spectacular! It's all about getting back to nature. Sunrise walks with flamingos, parrots, pelicans, frigates, trupials, songbirds and the ocassional osprey!... Get rid of your tan lines in privacy...Swim/snorkel/dive/kayak explore beaches and back roads during the day...Meals outside in the breeze, world class sunsets and at night...Enjoy unbelievable moonscapes and watch constellations cross the sky! Unbelievable!

For your morning swim, snorkel, kayak or dive just head down the steps and there you are! Isolated beach borders one side of property, another isolated beach just a short swim (or 60 second walk) the other direction and world class Cas Abou beach for those who enjoy a longer swim (or 60 second car drive). Enjoy your coffee in the breeze as the pelicans pass by. This cottage is pure relaxation (stay connected with fast wireless and Skype your friends at sunset! No TV!)

Private outdoor shower with shaded area for the massage service over the sea!... Ba-ooo! Exercise bike and free weights for the die hards!

Enjoy sunset right from the infinity edge of our salt water pool! HELLO!

The Cas Abou community is private, gated, natural, tranquil and quiet. Centrally located between downtown (25 minutes) and westpunt (25 minutes) Cas Abou is the best of both worlds and perfectly located for your island get-away.

Fantastic location
This small cottage is just what you need when you want to relax in a private way. No children, just the sounds of the waves and the birds. And those views! Everything you need is there. Don't expect luxury here though, but what else do you need? Finally, Don and Angie are so helpful in making your stay wonderful. Thank you!

I want SO badly to keep this place our little secret because it is that AMAZING but that would be such a disservice to Don and Angie. We absolutely loved every minute of our stay - even when the whole island lost power for a few hours. Don and Angie are wonderful hosts - very communicative and knowledgeable. Read your welcome packet and take their suggestions - everything from restaurants to beaches and everything in between that they suggested was top notch! You don’t need to leave the house unless you want to because it literally has everything. The bed was comfortable, the views were spectacular, and the experience was unforgettable. Some of our best snorkeling was right out from the house. We are sitting in the airport heading home writing this review and trying to figure out when we can come back!

About the host

Hosted by Seaside Don

Host profile image
International teacher, volunteer and small entrepreneur for 25 years...After 9 years in China I decided I wanted to see a real sunset again and moved to Curacao to teach history and philosophy. Started diving again and fell in love with the island, bought a property and built a little cottage for the first time in my life. It's been a special journey and I like to share it. Introducing people to Curacao and, specifically, to Banda Abou is a very fun part of my life. This is a special place with an incredible unspoiled natural vibration that you wake up to and when the moon is right or the breeze hits you properly it can make for a magical, magical experience!

Why they chose this property

It's simply one of the most incredible spots I've ever seen. It's been a lot of work and a lot more to come but it's decidedly a labor of love and intention.

What makes this property unique

Under-the-radar beauty and a place dedicated to grounding and loving.
