BLUEf!t Active Escape at TUI BLUE Curaçao

A typical day here starts whenever you want it to. If you are up early, there are sunrise stretch sessions and bootcamps outdoors, often on the beach or in the garden areas. The BLUEf!t gym has treadmills, ellipticals, free weights, resistance machines, kettlebells, balance balls and mats, plus outdoor zones for open-air training and a hydration station with towel service. Classes cover strength, endurance, coordination and flexibility, and there are personal training options if you want one-to-one coaching.

Mind-body sessions run too: mindfulness and stretch, guided breathing and meditation, and yoga flow with body mobility work. These are held in shaded garden spots and on rooftop decks with sea views. Aqua fitness and aqua cycling take place in the pools, and beach workouts happen on the sand. If you would rather play than train, there is beach volleyball, padel and a multicourt for other sports.

Afternoons are open. You can take a kayak or paddleboard out, book a dive or snorkel session through the on-site centre, or join a walking or cycling excursion to see more of the island. The resort also has a kids' splash pad, playground and games room for teens, so families are catered for. Evenings bring live music and themed entertainment, and the all-inclusive drinks run through the day and night.

What separates this from a standard all-inclusive is the BLUEf!t programme. It is TUI BLUE's own fitness and wellness concept, and it is included in your stay rather than sold as an extra. That means the gym, the group classes and the sports activities are part of the package. The trade-off is that this is a large resort, not a small retreat — the schedule varies by day and is published on site, and during the October–November 2026 opening period facilities and hours are phased in and may change.

Rooms are modern, each with a balcony or terrace, king-size or twin beds, rain showers and a mini fridge. Some categories include swim-up access or suite layouts. Wi-Fi runs throughout the resort, there is a 24-hour reception, a tour desk, car rental assistance, on-site parking and a medical assistance centre. Daily housekeeping is included, with turndown service for suites.

Curaçao itself is dry, sunny and outside the hurricane belt, which makes it a reliable bet for outdoor training. The resort is at Groot Santa Martha in Soto, on the quieter north-west side of the island, away from the bustle of Willemstad.
