About this property

PREMIER HOST Private 3 bdrm, Fully Air Conditioned 1600 sq ft villa

We take great pride in providing our guests a wonderful holiday stay. Villa Troupial is a Caribbean styled “FULLY AIR-CONDITIONED” family friendly “single Detached Villa” (meaning the unit is not shared with an upper or lower guest).
The open floor plan, vaulted ceilings and immense outdoor space provide you the optimum Caribbean experience.
The location of the villa provides a private and serene experience for 1-6 persons with outstanding views of the golf course, owners pool and lovely gardens.

All bedroom windows have screens to enhance the through house breeze during the day. For your convenience a safe is located in the master closet.

The veranda is the star of the show with an amazing views. A large lounge area awaits your group (great place for late day or evening drinks and conversation), the dining table easily accommodates six persons, and two loungers provide a great place for that afternoon nap.
Enjoy the trade winds, along with the sounds & sightings of parrots, bananaquits, and of course the colorful “TROUPIAL.” In the evenings the deck has attractive and mood setting up/down lighting which adds to the atmosphere and provides a great place for games and quality time with family & friends.

An added benefit is our local manager who will personally welcome you to the villa and provide an introduction to your home. She has lived in Curacao all her life so can provide much information.
In the villa you will also find a folder that provides information about TV, Internet password, operation of appliances , and features, as well as pinpointing where to find everything.

Upon rental we provide you an email that contains suggestions of possible things to do, places to see, favorite beaches, restaurants, rental car options and more. We greatly enjoy hearing about what our guest DISCOVER on their own.

A Perfect Hub for Relaxation and Exploring Curaçao

We had an incredible stay at this Blue Bay Vrbo! The home is located in a safe, private community that felt like a true oasis—quiet, tranquil, and beautifully maintained. The beach is just a short walk and is one of the best on the island. The sunsets were absolutely stunning, and the snorkeling right off the shore was incredible with so much sea life to see.The house itself is clean, spacious, and thoughtfully designed. The kitchen was fully equipped and made it easy to cook and enjoy meals at home—especially on the gorgeous wrap-around deck. We couldn’t have asked for a better base for exploring the island. Highly recommend for couples, families, or anyone looking to experience Curaçao in comfort and style.

House at Blue Bay

We had another wonderful stay at this house at Blue Bay. We enjoyed grilling and eating on the large deck with a lovely view of the treetops and pool. Blue bay beach was the epitome of relaxation and so convenient. We also had fun adventures at the national park, caves, and the beaches on west side of the island.

Stunning views, fantastic location, cozy vacation villa!

This villa served as the perfect home base for our 7-day Curacao vacation! With 3BR and 2.5 baths, our family of 4 had spaces to gather and spaces to enjoy quiet time, when needed. The expansive deck provides gorgeous views at all hours of the day--we especially enjoyed drinking our morning coffee there, playing card games, and taking in the Curacao sunsets. You're a stone's throw away from a gorgeous swimming pool and a short walk to Blue Bay Beach and multiple resort restaurants. The kitchen is well-appointed with everything you'll need to prepare meals and the villa is well air-conditioned throughout. We enjoyed our first visit to Curacao and thank you for opening your home for other families to enjoy!

Family Vacation

We had a wonderful vacation. We had 6 adults, kids were 18-21. The 3rd bedroom was a bit small for two 18 year old girls and their stuff, however we managed just fine. The reality is we were not in our rooms much. The location of the vila to everything at the resort was great. Joe was quick to respond to my questions and Erika was so pleasant and responsive, as well. Had a great vacation.

Great Villa!

Our family of 4 stayed here for two weeks. The villa was perfect for us. It has a huge deck, lots of indoor space and a well stocked kitchen. The location on the island was super convenient for getting to other beaches and into the city. The villa was also in a great spot in the resort, super close to the pool and short walk to the beach. We suggest trying the restaurant recommendations provide by the host, all were super tasty! Would definitely stay here again and will recommend to family and friends.

Great communication from start to finish. We loved the villa! The property was very clean and nicely decorated. We loved sitting on the porch with its great breeze.

Lovely Villa in Blue Bay

My wife and I really enjoyed our stay in Blue Bay. The villa is nicely situated in the resort. Very clean with lots of space and a wonderful covered deck area. Blue Bay has some really nice diving. I saw an octopus 🐙 on a night snorkel as well! Check-in/check-out was seamless. Strongly recommend staying here!

Small piece of heaven

House was as described and the community is great. The house offered plenty of towels and had extra snorkeling equipment to use. I would recommend a better manual for the use of the house such as how to use the dishwasher and should be in the house versus emailed. Also would have been nice to have deck chairs and an umbrella to use

Lovely home in perfect location

Our family of 5 spent 6 days in Blue Bay at this lovely home. Listing is accurate and the home is very comfortable, located a short drive from the airport and Willemstad. It is part of the Blue Bay Golf & Beach Resort property. The beach at Blue Bay is beautiful - crystal clear water, white sand and lots of fun fish to spot when snorkeling. Also has dining options on premises. Our hosts, Joe and Michelle, were amazing! They proactively provided us with a comprehensive list of recommendations for activities, beaches, restaurants, supermarkets, even car rental - they made sure we had all the info we could ever want at our fingertips. They are very responsive and happy to answer any questions you have. It truly felt like our home away from home. Curaçao is the perfect getaway for beach lovers and we can’t wait to go back! We will absolutely stay here again.

Beautiful Villa In Blue Bay

The pictures of the property do not do the resort justice. It is absolutely beautiful. Many evenings were spent watching the sun set from the balcony. Villa had everything we needed for a 10 day stay. Fully stocked kitchen has all accoutrements you need to prepare meals at home. The resort's location was great for a longer stay. Only minutes from grocery stores and the mall and only about 15 minutes from Willemstad. The resort beach is well maintained and not too crowded with plenty of beach chairs and shade. The resort's pool was a great respite from the heat. The restaurants in the resort were good for a romantic evening meal on the beach, as well as breakfast. If you are looking for a great home base for exploring Curacao, this villa is the perfect place to stay.

Attended wedding in Blue Bay

Our family stayed here Sept 28-Oct 3, 2023. I cannot say enough good about our stay at this house! Communication with the owner was excellent. The information packets were very clear and helpful. Super great maps to locate the place. Photos of the interior to find switches for different fans and lights. SO convenient. And a tremendous about of information about what to do in the area. We appreciated the bin of snorkeling equipment available for use. The layout is spacious with room to relax. The flowers/landscaping all over the resort is beautiful. If you are debating between different properties at this resort, I would point out that this one does have air conditioning for the living room, and not just the bedrooms. Other guests and even the bride and her parents were in the same resort and only had air con in the bedrooms. The high every day we were there was over 90 degrees F. Even locals said they couldn't remember when it had been so hot. We really appreciated that extra relief in the early evening.

Excellent property and location

My family and I stayed at villa 40 for 12 days over August and had a great vacation. The villa is private, clean, only a 5 min walk to the beach and nicely appointed w local art. Communication w the owner was excellent. Any question we had was promptly responded to. The proximity to Willemstad and the northern beaches of curaçao is also excellent. The blue bay beach, dive shop and all other amenities in the resort are excellent although some of the information provided is out of date (ie. no fishing boat, sunset cruise catamaran or kayaks are available at this location). Overall, we loved our experience and hope to be back.

About the host

Hosted by Michelle and Joe Duddy

Host profile image
Hi, we are Joe and Michelle, and we would greatly enjoy hosting your stay. We chose Curacao as our second home over 19 years ago after traveling to over 40 island destinations. In the past 3 years we have both retired and relocated from the New Jersey to Iowa for our US base. This enables us to spend several months a year in Curacao while traveling to other destinations around the world. Prior to retiring Michelle was a Veterinarian and Joe was a VP of facilities construction, our hobbies include scuba, snow skiing, golf, and adventure travel.
We take a great deal of pride in providing you a well-maintained accommodation and ensuring you have a wonderful holiday. We are happy to answer any questions or provide you any information you require.
We were drawn to BlueBay Curacao not just because of the beach, scuba, and golf but the diverse culture of the locals, the European feel of Willemstad, and the ability to go about the island 24 hrs. a day without worry.
Lastly as avid scuba divers we are happy to provide detail info related to diving and dive sites.

Why they chose this property

Blue Bay Resort, while not only having a first-class beach is also perfectly situated. Just west of the capital, it is close enough to downtown and the airport, yet far enough to avoid the crowds. It provides easy access to western dive sites and secluded beaches, and close to the restaurants and activities located in and around Willemstad.
friendly people, and cultural diversity, truly make Curacao a special place that has yet to be discovered by many travelers.

What makes this property unique

Our ability to spend a good deal of time in Curacao ensures our villa stays well maintained and items are updated / replaced regularly. We treat your experience as we would want if we were renting a vacation property. Additionally, our local manager Erica has a strong hospitality background and cares about the quality of your stay as much as we do.
Features we feel you will appreciate. First it is a (stand-alone villa) meaning no-one is staying above or below you. Secondly, we are one of 3 villas that are fully air conditioned. We are also pleased to provide you access to our personal washer & dryer.
Enjoy the Caribbean construction style, vaulted ceilings, with large sliding double doors that open to the large veranda allowing for unique outdoor living. Retractable Sunshades that block the sun but not the view while you relax and enjoy your afternoon cocktail. As the villa is on a rise, we have wonderful views over-looking the golf course, and owner pool. the location of the villa creates a quiet space on the veranda while the gardens, trees, and bushes allow for numerous birds and parrots to visit the villa.
