In a world of Zoom face-offs and remote work destinations, any luxury destination needs to become a “WeWork” enabled workplace. Often remote-and-wild does not align with fast internet. Any destination that has the word luxury in their meta tag needs to focus on fast-and-furious internet connections.
Cliff Villa, for example, is the last house on the far west point of the island. While breathtaking, it was a challenge to set up high speed internet connectivity for the roaming city-goer.
Curacao does not have the fastest internet connectivity to start with and being on the edge of the island makes it all the more challenging.
Eventually, after much trial and error, we set up a microwave relay dish on the house and directed it to a Digicel cell tower in the valley.
Now with blazing upload and download speed for the island, there are other most subtle issues to consider. While post-Covid revenge travel is on the horizon working remotely with the vista of blue azure sea can also make your work colleagues green with envy.
