With only two days, keep it simple and unhurried: one day for Willemstad on foot, one day for a standout beach, and you will still feel you have tasted the island.
Day 1, explore the painted city from the hotel: Handelskade, the swinging bridge, the Floating Market, the synagogue and Fort Amsterdam, with lunch at Plasa Bieu and dinner in Pietermaai.
Day 2, take a beach: nearby Mambo or Jan Thiel for ease, or drive west to Grote Knip and Cas Abao for the postcard water
Finish with a waterfront sunset before you leave.

Questions & answers
Is 2 days enough for Curaçao?
It is enough to enjoy walkable Willemstad and one beach day; a third day would let you add diving or the west-coast beaches.
