Per the Curacao chronicle, government meeting by end of June to determine next steps with the property. Stay tuned.

Yes, you are right, something is starting in the Campo case, copy of the article from Curacao Chronicle here: Local

By Correspondent June 4, 2024. Government set to reveal plans for former brothel by end of June.


WILLEMSTAD. The government has announced that it will provide clarity on its plans for Campo Alegre by the end of June. This decision follows a request for a question hour from independent Member of Parliament Zita Jesus-Leito.

During the budget debate of 2024, it came to light that a special committee had been established to further develop plans for Campo. However, Leito has voiced concerns that no information has been made public regarding these plans, despite the expenditure of 9 million guilders for acquisition and investments.

A question hour allows all Members of Parliament to submit written inquiries, which will be addressed orally by the minister during a public meeting.

My only hobbying regret is not visiting Campo. I thought to myself, oh sure it'll be around for ages, I can go anytime, etc. And then boom! It vanishes almost overnight. It was my one and only reason to visit the Caribbean. Never been anywhere south of Miami. And now without Campo, practically no reason to go. I tell ya fellas, if it does ever come back, I'll definitely be there.

You have other options in Caribbean too now, St. Maarten or Aruba.

Each is different setup and you can read thru forums to get a better sense of how each island works.

Been to Campo few times but my preference is St. Maarten.

I checked the news from the local radio station Dolfijn FM but it says nothing about the opening of Campo, only about an increased number of prostitutes from Venezuela. I provide a translated copy from Dutch " 04/25/2024.

More prostitution due to opening of Venezuela borders.

Curacao is experiencing an increase in prostitution. Morning newspaper Vigilante thinks this is due to the opening of the borders with Venezuela and an increase in scheduled flights between the South American neighboring country. Upon arrival at Hato, the ladies are included in an organized prostitution network that is active through various websites. The women would perform their services from neighborhoods around the airport. ".

Thanks for the reply! Wish they'd open campo!

It no longer shows permanently closed when you google it and it actually shows it is currently open and open 24 hours. I'd love to see this place come back!

No its not. Wondering who be telling you that. There are some former campo alegre girls working on their own on the island. Rumors is that they will be open in November 2024. But nothing seems like that till now.

There are other places on the Island. You have to do a little work to find them.

Plus the sailing is great.

What are the odds of Campo Algres coming back? Without Campo, no reason to visit the island.

So I've searched this forum trying to find information regarding the street scene on Bargestraat and another poster said there were Colombian and Dominican walkers out in the evening but they didn't partake.

Has anyone on this board gone with any of the walkers there, and perhaps can provide some information, such as the going rates, or at least a range of prices quoted, along with whether there are short time hotels available nearby and the going rates.

Any information would be helpful, and I'm going to speculate that since the closing of CAMPO there has probably been an increase of activity there.

Thanks.
