Any ideas on this one?

Saw it at night in Curacao at Playa Kalki. It's about 1/2 inch long.
I'm stumped... Is it a type of hermit?

Yes, that was my first thought, but I don't know of a hermit with legs that look like that...
 
The red-banded hermit and the stareye both have red stripes on legs. Yours appears very young so the color or pattern may change a little.
