About Baoase Luxury Resort

Founded in 2005, Baoase Luxury Resort has revitalised a previously overlooked section of beach along the Caribbean coast of Curaçao, transforming it into an exquisite 5-star retreat. Today, we proudly offer 23 luxurious rooms and suites, all supported by a dedicated team of over 200 local employees. As part of the Baoase family, we take immense pride in this accomplishment and are thankful to have brought it to fruition.

​​

Our Dedication to Social Responsibility

At Baoase, we acknowledge the responsibility that comes with being a prominent entity in the close-knit community of Curaçao. For years, we have been dedicated to supporting various local initiatives, including sponsoring the Daily Meal Program and the Coral Nursery Project. We also organise volunteer activities and paid volunteer days for our staff, further deepening our engagement. In addition, we actively participate in advocacy and educational programs designed to foster growth and create new opportunities within the community.

​​

Introducing The Baoase Foundation

In 2025, we are thrilled to announce the official launch of The Baoase Foundation, a charitable organisation focused on enhancing our social responsibility and giving back to the community, particularly the youth of Curaçao and nature. 

 

Vision
To inspire and empower the next generation in Curaçao by creating opportunities for growth, learning, and leadership—starting in our own neighbourhoods of Steenrijk, Marie Pampoen, and beyond.

 

Mission
The Baoase Foundation is dedicated to investing in the potential of Curaçao’s youth through programs that support education, personal development, creativity, and career readiness. With a special focus on the communities of Steenrijk, Marie Pampoen, and our surrounding neighborhoods, we aim to build strong local partnerships and offer young people the tools, confidence, and support they need to shape a brighter future—for themselves and for the island.
