The beach was lovely. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful (we were snowed out of our return flight & they set up in another room. The second room was much nicer, so I felt sad that I didn’t receive that room at first. I don’t think my Expedia VIP was helpful. I called the hotel for the second room and received a better rate. Food at hotel was very limited. Luckily there is a small restaurant area just down the street. Blount was amazing. We are there 3 times!

My girlfriend and I as well as my two friends stayed on vacation for the week of November, 30th to December, 7th 2024. From the moment that we checked in at the lobby, the staff at the front desk were very friendly and extremely courteous. This is the oldest hotel on Curacao and some of the history is on display with old photos and paintings in the lobby. Wonderful architecture and the layout of this resort is amazing. Our hotel room had plenty of space, the bed was extremely comfortable and the shower was amazing. Perfect water pressure and the unit had plenty of shelf, closet and drawer space. We had a small balcony that looked out over the pool and ocean. The room had a safe, mini-fridge and plenty of bathroom space. We were always well stocked with linens and towels. A nice touch is that they provide you with sunblock and inset repellent. For a point of reference, my group stayed at the Octagon Standard on the fourth floor. As far a restaurant options are concerned, we enjoyed the breakfast buffet at the Pen Restaurant and Terrace and snacks at the Schooner Bar. The staff at both facilities were very attentive and friendly. We didn’t get the chance to dine at the Blues Restaurant because it wasn’t open to suit our schedule. The only critique that I have is that less expensive options for breakfast and lunch aren’t available. What I really loved and enjoyed was the layout of the two beaches at Avila. Amazing snorkeling and over too crowded.

We had a wonderful time at the Avila. It exceeded our expectations. The private beaches are small, but beautiful and did not feel crowded, even during peak season. the pool was nice too. The whole hotel and grounds were vey well maintained. We especially enjoyed the snorkeling in the calm, clear water. Breakfast buffet was great and offers a wide variety of options with slight variations every day. We had one meal at The Pen and one meal at Blues. These were ok, but not great. There are many better options for dinner within a short walking distance. We would definitely choose this hotel again.

The Avila Beach hotel is one of the best hotels I have ever stayed in. It has such a wonderful relaxed vibe and everyone is so welcoming and nice. The two private beaches are so relaxing and the pool was great too. The food is excellent and we especially liked The Blues restaurant. If you want a relaxed and quiet vacation - this is the best place for you! We had such a wonderful time at the Avila.

The reefs surrounding the hotel were my favorite part. There was more fishes and wildlife here than on the snorkeling excursions I booked. I even saw a sea turtle while snorkeling outside of the lagoons. The food was amazing, Happy hour was great with live entertainment 4 out of 7 nights. The price seemed very reasonable and the rooms had everything you’d need. I can’t wait to come back.

Never Again

Once we arrived, they let us know we went be able to stay in the original room we booked because we had our baby with us and put us in a lower level room that was not as nice as the room we reserved and already paid for. They refused to give us even a partial refund. We also had a terrible ant problem in our room, reported it, and nothing was done about it. Breakfast is $50 for two people and the buffet is the same everyday. Not very clean. Even mentioned to a couple locals we were staying there and th eir reactions alone let us know we made the wrong choice. Would not go back.

This is a wonderful hotel. The front staff greeted us very nicely and we had a room overlooking the water (worth it!) with stove and refrigerator! Their in-room coffee makers are excellent and they provide the pods. The two beaches are pristine and protected from rough waves by rock jetties. The Blues and Pen restaurants are excellent and there is a happy hour at the bar 5:00 -6:00 pm. We walked into town twice, about 30 minutes each way and not that pretty. The hotel offers a shuttle 9:30 - 11:30 am and 2:00 -4:30 pm but not over lunch or dinner. A cab from the airport was $45.00 dollars and return $38.00 dollars. There is large supermarket about 30-40 minutes walk away but no hotel shuttle there. This is a great property and relaxing!
