The heart of the Avila Beach Hotel is a beautiful Dutch Colonial style mansion, which today houses the lobby and various executive offices of the hotel. It is estimated that the original mansion was built at the end of the 18th century. During the British rule at the beginning of the 19th century, it became the residence of the British Governors and later on that of the Dutch. The original part of the complex was called "La Belle Alliance". Another building of great historical importance on the Avila grounds is the cheerful seaside cupola known as the Octagon because of its octagonal shape. Around 1812, the sisters of the Venezuelan liberator Simon Bolivar lived at the Octagon during their years of exile from the Venezuelan independence war against Spain. Today this building is a much sought venue to host elegant wedding ceremonies and receptions.

ACCOMMODATION: Blues Wing - The west wing is called BluesWing, because it complements the wooden structure of the pier restaurant, Blues, across the water

Deluxe - The East wing is called La Belle Alliance because this was the original name of the Governor's mansion.
It was our first addition to the Avila Beach Hotel and in this wing you will find the Deluxe rooms with balconies and ocean view.

Suites - The 8 spacious Suites are also located in the La Belle Alliance wing and consist of a living room, a separate bedroom, a fully equipped kitchen with microwave and dishwasher, a private bathroom with bath and an extra toilet.

Classic Rooms - Our moderate and preferred rooms are located in the historical section of the hotel. They are smaller in size and do not offer hot water due to the limitations of an older plumbing system. However, the sun heats the pipes from the Curaçao water system which in turn provide warm water at day-time and cool refreshing water at night.

RESTAURANT: Belle Terrace - Imagine a romantic Caribbean open-air dining terrace where balmy trade wind breezes and the vivid blue Caribbean sea provide the ultimate tropical setting to an exquisite and unforgettable dining experience. The breaking surf on the beach serves as background music as the giant old Royal Poinciana ("Flamboyant") tree transforms into a magical canopy of hundreds of festive white lights above. The Belle Terrace features an exquisite à la carte menu with international, Danish, and local island cuisine, as well as a weekly 3 course special dinner menu.
