Curaçao Mobile Networks Explained
Curaçao is a small island in the southern Caribbean, just 60 km off the coast of Venezuela. Its mobile networks are run by Digicel Curaçao and UTS (also known as Chippie). Both operators provide 4G LTE coverage across the island's main populated and tourist areas.
Digicel has the widest coverage and is the primary network for HelloRoam travellers visiting Curaçao. 4G signals reach Willemstad, the airport, Mambo Beach, Pietermaai district, and most resort zones. The interior of the island is less densely populated and coverage there can be lighter, but main roads and tourist attractions are covered.
UTS (Chippie) is the legacy national telco with strong voice and data coverage in urban areas. Both networks typically deliver 4G LTE speeds in the 15 to 40 Mbps download range, which is more than enough for maps, messaging, and video calls. 5G has not yet launched on the island. Australian travellers should confirm their handset is unlocked and supports the local network bands.

| Typical cost | From A$8.52 total | A$21.29–A$42.59 total | A$14.20–A$21.29/day |
| Details | Activate before you leave. No airport stops needed. One flat rate covers the entire island. Plans from A$11.83 with no daily charges. | Local SIM cards require a visit to a carrier store or airport kiosk. Digicel and UTS tourist SIMs are available but stock varies.

Cat
On a trip to Europe, my hotel Wi-Fi was so slow and outside Wi-Fi was unreliable. I couldn’t take it anymore so I got helloroam for a few days. It was tricky to set up correctly because of the primary settings (with my original number). But I reached out to their customer service via WhatsApp. Super responsive and helpful, with specific and clear steps to troubleshoot. Appreciate having 4G roaming instead of being stuck with in and out Wi-Fi during my trip!!
Rated 5 out of 5 by this reviewer
Very good experience! The eSIM was easy to set up and worked great in London. It was much cheaper than it would have been to use my own operator there.
