Karakter Beach
Karakter Beach, pictured to your left, is a short two block walk from Villa 19 - Curacao Vacation Rental. It sits adjacent to the fine dining restaurant Karakter and the on-premise Coral Divers dive shop.
The western beach is man-made with umbrellas, chairs and seaside table service while the eastern beach is rocky with easy sea access.
There are two ways into the ocean, a concrete set of steps and rail between the two beaches and a set of non-slip steps and rail in the middle of the Karakter beach.
Use of the Karakter beach is free, however, there is a nominal per person service fee for drinks and food. Beach chairs, sofas, umbrellas, and wi-fi are included with that fee.
Koraal Infinity-edge Pool
Located next to the upper bar / restaurant named Koraal is the Coral Estate infinity-edge pool. It is open to the public and requires a small per person service fee for its use.
Villa 19 - Curacao Vacation Rental has its own private pool for guest use for those seeking maximum privacy. The Koraal pool is good for small children and for those who would like to do a little people watching.
You'll find loungers, umbrellas, and bean bags surrounding the pool to relax in. Table service is available for drinks and light lunch fare. The views are exceptional especially for sunsets.

At Coral Estates you have quite a few options without having to leave the resort. They are all convenient and delicious.
Scuba, Snorkel and Watersports
One of the great things about Curacao is that for divers, you don't have to go on a boat to reach your dive destination. The dive wall at Coral Estate is one of the easiest and shortest swims on the island. From shore it's only 70 meters. You can dive or snorkel to your heart's content within Coral Estate without ever having to incur the expense of a boat charter.
One of the things that sets Coral Estate apart, however, is that we do have our own PADI dive shop, Coral Divers, on premise. Rent tanks and gear, get instruction, get certified or take one of their boat charters to a unique and hidden destination. They also offer snorkeling tours, too.
Additionally, the dive shop rents kayaks and Stand Up Paddleboards (SUP). They offer SUP tours and lessons and can arrange day and sunset boat trips, deep sea fishing and other island tours. Our property manager can make arrangements for various land excursions such as dolphin swims and ATV adventures.
Spa and Wellness
Are you in need of some relaxation this vacation? How about a nice massage, facial or body treatment? Would you prefer to sit in the steam room, cliffside hot tubs or outdoor pool? Here at Coral Estate we have 8! That's the name of our onsite spa and wellness center located right next to the Koraal pool and just a short two block walk from Villa 19 - Curacao Vacation Rental.
They offer a wide range of services. With floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the ocean, you are sure to enjoy every minute.
Gift Shops
With two onsite gift shops located at the main resort entrance you can easily pick out a Curacao treasure to remember your Villa 19 - Curacao Vacation Rental vacation experience.
Security
