This Caribbean Island Is Getting a 297-Room All-Inclusive From One of Europe's Biggest Tour Operators
TUI BLUE Curacao will open October 1 on the island's quieter western coast, with swim-up suites, six restaurants, and beachfront access starting at $413 per night.
TUI BLUE is bringing a 297-room all-inclusive resort to Curacao's western coast, with an opening date set for October 1, 2026. The property will sit on the seafront at Groot Santa Martha, a quieter stretch of the island that has been gaining traction with developers looking beyond the established hotel corridors near Willemstad.
The resort will feature swim-up suites and private-pool accommodations alongside standard rooms, six restaurants, multiple bars, three swimming pools, and direct access to a white-sand beach with wide bay views. Rates start at $413 per night for the opening date, according to TUI's booking portal.
TUI BLUE is the hotel brand of TUI Group, Europe's largest tour operator. The brand operates dozens of properties across the Mediterranean, North Africa, and Southeast Asia, but its Caribbean footprint has been limited. The Curacao property represents a significant push into the region's competitive all-inclusive market.
The opening adds to a busy year for Curacao's hotel pipeline. The island is also expecting a new Marriott all-inclusive, part of Marriott's expanding all-inclusive portfolio, with a 300-room adults-only property in development.
Located about 24 kilometers from Curacao International Airport, the TUI BLUE resort is positioned to attract European travelers already familiar with the brand, while also competing for the North American market that has increasingly discovered the island as an alternative to more saturated Caribbean destinations.
