Villa Vyda, Jan Thiel

Villa Vyda, Jan Thiel – Jan Thiel, Curaçao

Villa op Curaçao · Jan Thiel

Villa Vyda is in the upmarket Damasco Resort (right opposite the main gate of Marbella Estate), Jan Thiel. It is a lovely house: modern with a few country touches, spacious, attractive and very comfortable. No trendy white plastic chairs at the dining table here, but comfortable armchairs with thick cushions. A spacious porch with a choice of places to sit, beautiful, atmospheric lighting, and facing east, so you make the most of that pleasant Caribbean breeze.

Inside, one of the bar stools at the large kitchen island is not only a nice spot for breakfast or the paper, but also a great place to sit at your laptop for a while. The kitchen is very well equipped, with every convenience. The spacious bedrooms with luxury box-spring beds each have their own en-suite bathroom. Villa Vyda is a lovely place for anyone who loves peace and comfort but also wants to be a stone’s throw from life and fun!

And if you want to make it really easy on yourself, Yvon and Werner also arrange the transfer from and to the airport, and you can rent the owners’ car to explore the island (on request). Enjoy!
