We stayed in one of the Sunchi Beachfront Swim-up Club Level Junior Suites, and it was one of our favorite experiences at Sandals Royal Curaçao. Located in Building One, these suites are right along the beachfront, offering a rare combination: direct access to a swim-up pool and just steps from the sand. It felt like the best of both worlds.
Our private patio was a dream, outfitted with lounge chairs, a bistro set, privacy curtains, and a Tranquility Soaking Tub for two. We spent most mornings sipping coffee by the pool and evenings enjoying a quiet soak under the stars. The zero-entry swim-up pool was perfect for a refreshing dip at any time of day, and we loved how peaceful and private it felt even though we were so close to the beach.

Inside, the suite was bright, clean, and well-appointed. The king-size bed was super comfortable, and the sitting area was a nice place to relax in the air conditioning after a hot day in the sun. We made good use of the in-room bar, which was stocked with a great selection of liquor and wine. The spa-style bathroom was modern and thoughtfully designed, with a walk-in rain shower and sleek finishes.
The Club Sandals perks made a great stay even better. From private check-in to all-day room service, everything was taken care of. The Club Lounge was also a great spot to grab a drink or quick bite during the day, and the concierge team helped us with dinner reservations and tips for exploring the island.
Absolutely! Here’s a revised and accurate overview of the Sunchi Building at Sandals Royal Curaçao, now reflecting its beachfront location and proximity to key amenities:
Sunchi Building at Sandals Royal Curaçao
The Sunchi Building is a fantastic choice if you’re dreaming of a stay close to the beach with quick access to some of the resort’s top dining spots. Located along the beachfront, these rooms are positioned in a line that begins near the lobby and extends farther down the coast, depending on the room number. We put in requests for our clients depending on how far or close to the lobby they want to be.
This building is steps from the sand and features two swim-up pools, which are perfect for a refreshing dip without heading to the main pool area. Whether you’re staying in a swim-up room or a second-floor suite with ocean views, you’ll enjoy a relaxing coastal vibe and beautiful scenery right outside your door.
It’s also conveniently located near The Strand, the beachfront restaurant, and Gatsu Gatsu, one of the resort’s standout spots for sushi and Asian-inspired cuisine. The lobby and Kanaal Coffee Shop are just a short walk away if you’re staying in one of the closer rooms.

Sandals Royal Curaçao is one of the newest and most unique Sandals resorts, offering a modern, Dutch-Caribbean vibe with all the signature Sandals luxury inclusions. Opened in 2022, this adults-only, all-inclusive escape is designed for couples who want a balance of relaxation, adventure, and elevated style.
Dining & Drinks
- 8 Gourmet Restaurants including Italian, Asian fusion, seafood, and farm-to-table cuisine

- 13 Bars, including swim-up bars, a wine bar, and mixology-focused lounges
- Locally Sourced Ingredients and Curaçao-inspired menus throughout the property
The food here is elevated and better than most Sandals Resorts. We loved the food trucks for lunch, the coffee shop each morning, and an iced latte during the day. For dinner, there are so many options, but my favorites are Zuka and Gatsu Gatsu.
Pools & Beach
The resort has several large pools, including the iconic Dos Awa Infinity Pool, a stunning two-level infinity pool overlooking the ocean, a quiet secluded pool and pools with swim-up suites.
The beach has clear, calm water perfect for swimming, snorkeling, and sunbathing. This is not the typical beach location since the beach that is swimmable is set on a river inlet with a floating dock creating the beach area.
Activities & Inclusions
At Sandals Royal Curacao, there are unlimited water sports like paddleboarding, kayaking, snorkeling, and scuba diving for certified divers. On land there is tennis, pickleball, beach volleyball, and access to a scenic 18-hole golf course (at additional cost).
At the main pool there is entertainment throughout the day and each night you can expect themed entertainment.
If you’re looking for a Sandals resort that feels both refreshingly different and undeniably upscale, Sandals Royal Curaçao is a standout. It combines Sandals’ signature service and amenities with a stylish, culturally rich destination, perfect for couples who want to discover something new in the Caribbean.
