To celebrate the Caribbean country of Curaçao making history as the smallest country ever to qualify for the World Cup, Sandals Royal Curaçao is launching Vacation Goals: Curaçao Edition. This limited-time summer program will blend on-resort festivities with immersive cultural exploration, encouraging guests to embrace the excitement of the game alongside the unmistakable flair of the Dutch Caribbean.
Beginning June 2026 and running through the duration of the World Cup tournament (June 11 - July 19, 2026), Sandals Royal Curaçao will make it easy to watch your favorite teams with high-energy watch parties. Guests will also have the opportunity to sharpen their footwork and embrace their soccer spirit with onsite goal posts and soccer balls. Game-day food and beverage specials will spotlight flavors of competing nations with a Caribbean twist, while a cocktail lineup honors host countries Canada, the United States and Mexico. Zero-proof libations will also be on the roster.
Additional ways guests can celebrate the World Cup at Sandals Royal Curaçao:

- Take the Curaçao Futbòl Culture Tour to dive deeper into Curaçao’s fascinating soccer story.

According to our resort specialists:
“This is a great opportunity to not only get swept up in the spirit of World Cup action, but to also immerse yourself in a country’s sporting history and contribute to the development of future athletes. Sandals is always supportive of the countries they’re in, which is one of the many reasons we often recommend them to our clients.”
Opened in 2022 as Sandals Resorts’ first property in the Dutch Caribbean, Sandals Royal Curaçao sits on 44 oceanfront acres, just 15 miles from Willemstad. The adults-only, all-inclusive resort features 351 rooms and suites across 25 categories, including signature accommodations such as the AWA Seaside Butler Bungalows, Kurason Island Poolside Butler Bungalows and Asombroso Rondoval Butler Villas.
