Nestled in one of the most private areas of one of Curaçaos most prestigious residential resorts, Royal Gardens Curacao, we are proud to present you this fully, and luxuriously renovated executive villa for sale with large swimming pool in Matancia.

Royal Gardens Resort

The resort is characterized by:
- very luxury homes
- very green residential area with mature trees and avenues
- safety at TOP-level (known as 'safest' resort on Curaçao)
- excellent facilities (including tennis courts) with a well-functioning HOA

The 24-hour security has a very strict control policy. Therefore, there is only limited third party access to the Resort.
The Resort consists of approx. 35 homes. The district is approx. 15 years old and consists of a 'ring' and a 'inner part'. All homes are different but have the same construction characteristics which make a varied yet concerted construction. The avenues with tall trees give a 'uncommon Curacao-'character to this district; you picture yourself more in the South of the US than on Curacao….
