“Luxury Oceanfront Villa with Private Beach in Curacao – Prime Location!”

This one-star review is profoundly misleading and does not reflect the condition of the property or the quality of our service. The reservation was terminated solely because of the guest’s own serious conduct. During the night, the guest climbed over a fence and entered a neighboring property without permission. He then approached the home of an elderly woman living alone and attempted to gain entry. She had not requested assistance and was not experiencing an emergency. Understandably frightened by the presence of an unknown person outside her home in the middle of the night, she immediately contacted neighbors and the police. Law enforcement responded to the incident. Following that response, the HOA instructed us to terminate the reservation and remove the entire group from our property. We complied immediately because protecting the safety of our neighbors and community is more important than preserving a booking. The guest’s removal was therefore not related to any defect, cleanliness concern, missing amenity, or failure in our hospitality. It was the direct consequence of conduct that caused a neighboring resident to fear for her safety and required police involvement. It is deeply unfair for an owner to be punished with a retaliatory one-star review after responsibly addressing such a serious incident. The circumstances were documented by law enforcement and the HOA. We stand fully behind our decision and would take the same action again to protect our neighbors an
