Villa Larga | Lap Pool | Rooftop Views | Jan Thiel

Some pools are an afterthought. At Villa Larga, the pool is the point.
Long enough to actually swim, wide enough to lounge the day away and running the full length of the villa, the pool at Villa Larga sits alongside an open gallery corridor that connects every ground floor bedroom directly to the outdoor space. Step out of your room and the pool is right there. No corridors, no detours, no barriers between sleeping and swimming.

The architecture here is deliberate. The long bedroom wing and the long pool are parallel by design, creating a sense of scale and flow that guests consistently describe as bigger and better than the photos suggest. Above it all, the primary suite sits on its own level with a private terrace. And above that, a rooftop with unobstructed panoramic ocean views.
Jan Thiel Beach is a 12-minute walk. Everything else arranges itself around the pool.

THE VILLA
Villa Larga is designed around a single architectural idea — a long, open property where the pool, the bedrooms and the living spaces all exist on the same plane, connected and facing each other across an open deck.

The three ground floor bedrooms sit along one wing, each accessible from the gallery corridor, a covered, glass-walled walkway that runs the full length of the bedroom wing with the pool deck on one side and the bedroom doors on the other. It is one of the most distinctive details of the property. Step outside your room and you are immediately in the outdoor space, with the pool directly in front of you and the Curaçao sky above.

The living room and kitchen anchor the main block, connecting naturally to both the bedroom wing and the upper level. The primary suite upstairs has its own private terrace, the only bedroom with dedicated outdoor space at that level. Above the upper block, a rooftop staircase leads to an unobstructed panoramic view of the ocean and surrounding landscape.

Bedroom 3 on the ground floor includes a private kitchenette with cooktop and fridge, making it a naturally self-contained space within the property. Bedroom A also has its own private entrance from the front of the house — a useful detail for guests who want complete independence of movement.

• Fully gated private compound with parking
• Open plan living and dining connecting to the pool and bedroom wing
• Fully equipped kitchen with induction stove and oven
• Washer on site
• Air conditioning in all bedrooms
• Long private pool running parallel to the bedroom wing
• Glassed gallery corridor connecting bedrooms to pool deck
• Upper level primary suite with private terrace
• Rooftop level with panoramic ocean views

OUTDOOR LIVING
The pool runs the full length of the villa and it’s the first thing guests see, the last thing they leave and the detail that comes up in almost every review. Long enough for proper swimming, wide enough for the whole group and positioned so that every ground floor bedroom faces it directly across the open deck. The gallery corridor that runs alongside means the transition from bedroom to pool takes approximately four steps. That proximity changes how the day feels. Guests drift in and out of the water naturally throughout the day rather than treating the pool as a destination.

Timber decking lines the pool with sun loungers and dining areas alongside. The scale of the outdoor space matches the scale of the pool. Neither feels oversized for the other.
• Long private pool running the full length of the villa
• Timber pool deck with sun loungers
• Poolside dining and lounge seating
• Open gallery corridor connecting bedrooms directly to the deck
• Fully private within gated grounds
• Natural airflow throughout when doors and corridor are open

GETTING AROUND
A rental car is strongly recommended. Curaçao rewards exploration and the tropical heat makes even short distances feel longer on foot. With your own wheels the whole island opens up. Willemstad is a short drive away, the west-end beaches are worth the drive and everything in between is yours to discover.


GUEST SUPPORT & LOCAL GUIDE
Complete privacy is yours throughout your stay but we're always a message away. Our local team is available 24/7 for anything you need, from a restaurant recommendation to practical assistance. After booking you'll receive access to our comprehensive digital guest guide with restaurant picks, beach recommendations, family-friendly activities, snorkellng spots and practical tips for making the most of Curaçao from your very first morning.


ON-SITE ASSISTANCE & EMERGENCIES
Our local team can respond promptly if on-site help is needed. Emergency contact details and procedures are provided in the guest book at the property.


NOTABLE DETAILS: ENERGY TRANSPARENCY
Villa Larga includes 40 kWh of electricity per night, enough for comfortable evening air conditioning throughout the property. Usage above that is billed at $0.50 per kWh and settled after checkout. In practice most guests find the included allowance covers their needs comfortably, particularly when enjoying the trade winds during the day and using air conditioning primarily at night. We share this upfront because we'd rather you know before you book.

A $500 security deposit (where applicable) held on your credit card is required at booking.

For stays of 7 nights or more, a mid-stay clean is required. This is a standard part of how we manage longer stays and ensures the home remains in excellent condition throughout your visit. We coordinate the timing with you in advance.

THE POOL IS WAITING
Long days. A pool that earns its length. The bedroom door four steps from the water. Jan Thiel Beach three minutes from the gate.
This is what a Curaçao holiday is supposed to feel like. We look forward to welcoming you to Villa Larga.
