Bottom Line

In a residential area of Lapad peninsula, the upper-mid-range Villa Curic offers 14 apartment-like rooms with kitchenettes and free Wi-Fi, though furnishings are on the dated side. The charming stone exterior with greenery is a highlight here, along with the lovely outdoor rooftop pool surrounded by lounge chairs and offering amazing bay views. Rooms are clean and spacious with kitchenettes, living areas, and dining areas; some have spacious, scenic, furnished terraces. There is some free on-site parking available, and the historical sights of Old Town are about a 10-minute drive away. The main complaint here is that the homey, dated furnishings lack style compared to the appealing pool and exterior. Travelers can compare rates with Villa Klaic, a charming bed-and-breakfast with free breakfast, beer, and a small, outdoor pool.

Villa Curic

Scene

Upper-middle-range villa with small garden and rooftop pool with stunning views

The owners of Villa Curic are friendly, and guests who opt for the airport transfer appreciate the choice of music on their ride to the villa. Charming white stone walls surround the property where a garden with marble paths and wooden benches provides a lovely sitting area with plants and flowering trees. Inside, there’s a snack machine and an elevator guests can use to get to their room. The villa has a rooftop, infinity-edge pool with amazing views of the bay and hills beyond. The pool area is clean, and there’s even a small shower for rinsing off as well as a little bathroom. Black lounge chairs provide a spot to relax and watch the cruise ships come into the bay. This intimate property attracts couples, families, and groups of friends who want to take advantage of the self-catering facilities in the apartments, though room decor is not as charming as the rest of the property.

Rooms

Apartment-like rooms with kitchenettes and dated decor; some have scenic terraces

Rooms at Villa Curic have homey decor such as framed watercolors hanging on pastel walls and knickknacks on vanity tables; guests report thoughtful extras including welcome packages with fruit and wine. Furnishings such as dated cabinets and red, fabric couches could use a refresh. Kitchenettes are equipped with sinks, stovetops, mini-fridges, microwaves, and coffeemakers. Tableware and cookware are provided as well as paper towels and dish soap. Bathrooms are small with tiny, corner stall showers. All rooms have living areas, dining areas, TVs, and free Wi-Fi. Some rooms have huge stone terraces with tables, lounge chairs, and amazing views of the bay. The largest apartments can accommodate up to four guests. While these spaces lack refined style, they are spacious and the apartments with terraces are particularly good value.
