Profit In Paradise - December 2024 - 4+ Bdr, >$250 USD/night -

What have the last 12 months on the island looked like? We took a look at homes and apartments priced at >$250USD/night and homes with 4+ bedrooms across  Lagun, Santa Martha, Cas Abou, Coral Estate, Blue Bay, Piscadera, Nieuw Nederland, Marie Pampoen, Steen Wijk, Boca Gentil, Vista Royal, Jan Thiel, Brakkeput Abou, Cas Grandi and Jan Sofat.

Generally speaking, the last 12 months have been kind to these larger luxury properties:

• Adjusted Occupancy (Booked nights out of nights available) was 51%

• Avg Nightly Rate is $422 USD (+8% YoY)

• Avg Nightly Revenue per Available night is $215 USD (+9% YoY)

• Avg Lead Time (Avg # of days between booking and check-in) is 68

• 30 day Nightly Revenue is $6,463 USD (+10% YoY)

December prices through the 28th appear stronger than last year for 4+ bedroom homes while the end of the year and first week of January are seeing somewhat less demand relative to last year as evidenced by pricing.

Over the next 12 months demand appears healthy with noticeable improvements in price. A spike in April suggests the island is already seeing an influx of bookings for the Curacao International Film Festival.  Note an even larger spike towards the end of May.
