There are quite a few bars and nightlife hot spots scattered about the island in different neighborhoods, and something different going on every night of the week. But there is no one "nightlife" district per say. Your best bet it to seek out the Curaçao Party Guide (www.curacaopartyguide.com) for complete up-to-date events and music and theme nights to find your style and where it’s happening. There are a few pockets, however, that are always nightlife-lively, like Maambo Beach Boulevard, Jan Thiel, and more recently, the newly transformed neighborhood of Pietermaai and Scharloo, where you can bar-hop in one spot without having to drive anywhere. And most resorts have some kind of nightly entertainment on-site on weekends.

An entire pocket of the historic neighborhood of Scharloo has turned into a trendy party block called District 1850.

Beautifully restored heritage buildings and cool new colorful cafés set the scene for lots of lively nocturnal happenings.

Curaçao is addicted to jazz, and there are many live jazz festivals throughout the year, but if you really want to get into the swing of it any night of the week, head to Miles Jazz Vinyl and Cigars Cafe. Named after the legendary musician Miles Davis, it's a cool little getaway in the heart of Pietermaai where you can hear jazz played on vinyl, play board games, and have a cigar and a drink. Local musicians occasionally stop by to jam as well.

Part of the Saint Tropez Suites resort in Pietermaai, this unique day club is where French Riviera–style meets Dutch Caribbean cool. A gorgeous infinity pool crests a rocky coast with crashing waves and is surrounded by plush daybeds, private cabanas, and loungers. A trendy bar and open-air dining spot serves small bites and full lunch, and there’s also surf-side bottle service and tapas by the pool. Access is free to resort guests, and some neighboring hotels also have complimentary access; others must buy a pass. At night, it morphs into a cool open-air lounge and dinner spot often featuring hot DJs and special events.
