Mambo Beach is the island's social beach: a sheltered strip of imported sand backed by an open-air boulevard of shops, restaurants and bars.
Only about 15 minutes from the hotel, Mambo is protected by a breakwater, so the water is calm and family-friendly.
By day it is loungers and snack bars; by evening the boulevard fills for dinner and drinks
It is not a snorkelling beach, but it is the easiest beach day from Willemstad and the best for combining sand with shopping and nightlife.
