Caribbean Room With A View: Lions Dive and Beach Resort, Curacao

By: Caribbean Journal Staff - October 1, 2014

By Sarah Greaves-Gabbadon

Sea, sand and swaying palm trees: as views go, it’s the tropical trifecta.

And while you can enjoy such vistas all over the Caribbean, we’re partial to this panorama from the Lions Suite at Curacao’s Lions Dive & Beach Resort.

The suite has two spacious bedrooms but we’re drawn to the broad terrace which overlooks the beach and thriving reef just beyond.

At sunrise, sunset and every hour in between, this particular vantage point is the Lion’s pride.

From $487 per night.

CJ’s Caribbean Room With a View column takes you to the Caribbean’s most interesting hotel rooms — with one major focus: the view.
