Happy about our stay at Chogogo.
We enjoyed our stay at Chogogo. The furnishings were somewhat spartan but very clean. We loved the view from our balcony - the beautiful gardens and birds. The overall atmosphere of the grounds was relaxing and inviting.

Aussie Couple

I would not stay here again
Disappointing for the price. Location was good and apartments look nicely painted. However the complex is much bigger than we were lead to believe and a lot of apartments on top of each other doesn’t make for a very private experience. Soundproofing is poor with a lot of noise from the regular slamming doors from other apartments around you (they need to fix these doors with some rubber door stops etc). The pool was not enjoyable as too many uncontrolled children, my wife and I were hit by flying balls and toys on a number of occasions. Poor behaviour by guests that staff need to do something about for the sake of respectful guests. Staff were very polite and friendly, but did not seem overly knowledgeable about services within the resort. The kitchenette was very limited, just a hot plate. No basics at all provided in the kitchen, no salt or pepper, cooking oil or even dishwashing liquid.

Best Seen From Afar
The gardners and waiters were really nice. The landscaping was nice. The other staff could not smile to save their lives. We arrived at night, and security could barely tell us how to get to our room, and it took several tries to find it. Then, there was no soap in it. Not in the bathrooms, the sinks, anywhere. Every towel we got was torn or frayed. No wash cloths at all. The pillows were tiny and only one each. It took five days out of our seven day stay to get more pillows. We could not buy soap on site, or any amenities. We had to go to the store down the street. The cottages are clustered together on a hillside. Down the hill is the beach, which is closed off with a fence covered in barbed wire. The beach has chairs side by side covering all the sand. You pay for your chair. Its a whole mentality of being separated from the rest of the island and the people who live on it. I have to say that there was just nothing gracious or welcoming about the resort. The other guests were nice, that much is true. But they too had come to vacation among the very same people they live with. Also, it is a desert island. Don't expect the tropics or big beautiful beaches. But that is Curacao, and not about the resort.

basic but okay
Chogogo is the oldest resort in Jan Thiel Beach. The 2 bedroom appartments are spacious and clean. The landscaping is beautiful, very lush. You will have a great time in Jan Thiel Beach, with shops, ocean, diving, restaurants all within walking distance. There's a busstop just infront of the resort that will take you into the city. Just don't expect too much comfort staying at Chogogo. Beds are terrible, waterpressure in the shower is minimal, as is the service at the frontdesk.

Bem no Sul
Fica um pouco afastado do centro e das melhores praias, que são as do Norte. Mas, compensa pela tranquilidade e da brisa que bate na sacada do apartamento. Também gostei da piscina.
