Lovely little hotel. Close to local activities, restaurants, and shopping. The staff were warm and welcoming. It doesn’t have a private beach like some of the resorts on Curaçao, but it has a private pool. It’s not the quietest spot around, so be warned if you have an early bedtime and sleep lightly. Would stay here again.

The property has good character with its solid marble statues scattered on the grounds and real solid wood mahogany classic furniture inside the rooms. During my recent visit, I stayed in a room that has two levels joined by wooden stairs; the upper level was like a reading/ conversation/ music listening room; and the lower level had a big bathroom with a hugh bathtub in the middle of the floor, a nice bedroom, a study area with desk plus a separate space for the coffee station. Both levels have many windows that provide ample control natural light. The ACs are modern with the silent or sleep option which allows the AC to run totally silent while keeping you cool all night. Management was excellent during my stay. Miguel, the manager, is people centered and does whatever is necessary, immediately, to ensure your stay is comfortable and enjoyable. I enjoyed my stay at the hotel and look forward to my 4th visit.

Hard to overstate how delightful this hotel is. The property is gorgeous. The staff is amazing. And the adjacent village, with great restaurants and shops, is just steps away. It’s a boutique hotel with resort amenities. Very relaxed. Very romantic. If you’re looking for a unique experience, away from the crowds, with personalized service, this is the place.

Excelente hospedagem em Curaçao

Hotel muito charmoso e confortável na melhor região de Otrobanda. A propriedade fica dentro de uma área com uma série de lojas, restaurantes e galerias de arte. Todos os funcionários do hotel são muito atenciosos e fazem de tudo para que a estadia seja perfeita. A única questão negativa diz respeito ao café da manhã (que é em outro hotel próximo). A comida servida é de pouca variedade e não segue o padrão esperado para o hotel. No café, o atendimento é demorado e prejudica muito quem deseja explorar as praias da ilha cedo. No último dia de nossa estadia resolvemos tomar o desjejum em restaurante fora do hotel e a experiência foi bem melhor.

We stayed one night, we arrived on kings day April 26th! The property and the staff were wonderful, friendly and very helpful navigating the national holiday. Willemstad is a true gem, and we are so glad we stayed in town one night before heading to our all inclusive. We can’t wait to be back!

Great stay

Great stay! The hotel is centrally located yet quiet. Charming layout, helpful staff. Relaxing pool area w sun and shade. There’s a parking lot near the hotel, no more than a two minute walk. Only thing I would do differently is not get the breakfast included. There are better options to be had in the area.
