The Avila Hotel is a luxury beachfront resort on the Dutch Caribbean island of Curacao, selected as favorite Caribbean destination in About.com as 2012 Readers' Choice Awards. The Avila Hotel has been awarded the title of a 2012 as well as 2011 Fodor's Choice property by Fodor's Travel, the leading provider of travel intelligence for American travelers for 75 years! Our aim is to deliver to our guests a sense of timeless elegance, a bygone age delivered in a modern package. A blend of authentic ambiance of the past blended with the comforts of today. The sun, sea, beaches and our optimal downtown location combine with a sense of belonging to make the Avila Hotel one of the most popular luxury hotels in Curacao. Whether for business, romance or simple pleasure, we use our gift of hospitality to ensure that the Avila Hotel is not only a location, but also a destination. Family run for generations, the Avila Hotel can boast a unique history that covers more then two hundred years. Time seems to stand still here. Ceiling fans whirl slowly. The air smells sweetly of hibiscus and trinitaria (bougainvillea). Palm trees on the beach seem to wave welcome. Brightly painted fishing boats chug across the azure sea. A full moon chases a warm sun westward. Another perfect day magically evolves into yet another balmy, star-studded night. The Avila Hotel in an authentic reflection of the island of Curaçao. Friendly. Intimate. Understated. Welcoming. It is famous for its quiet, restful tranquility and yet it is only a short distance from bustling historic Willemstad (Curaçao's capital). The hotel counts several Restaurants & Bars. Food is more than just Breakfast, Lunch & Dinner. Our restaurants offer a variety of quality, fresh food at every time of the day and night. Savor world cuisine and a “Keshi Yena” specialty that people come to us for. Experience the wide range of our fine dining offerings by clicking on their respective links to the right.
