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.

The room was comfortable and the pool area is lovely and quiet. The larger Kura Hulanda area has nice shops and restaurants and the excellent slave trade museum. The larger Otrabanda neighborhood is full of colourful art and murals. Great base to explore the city.

Location was excellent, close to several nice restaurants, shopping nearby(yuck for me!) and many activities within walking access. Staff was very nice, helpful and full of great suggestions and tips. Small pool with afternoon and evening food and drink service. We really enjoyed our stay here.

Really loved this hotel --- quiet, relaxed, beautiful grounds, and an extraordinarily friendly, helpful, and engaging staff. As part of a small village with dining, retail, and amenities close by, everything needed was just steps away. And yet, just a few steps further, the iconic views of Willemstad. We also enjoyed these views from the balcony of our 2nd story rooms. I highly recommend a stay at Kura Botanica.

Pleasant surprise

I generally sought out local boutique hotels in my travel. Love the staff, esp Miguel. The hotel has a different vibe not like chain hotels. The rooms are nicely appointed with a giant bathroom. The landscaping felt like a luscious garden. Being inside the Kura Hulanda was a plus.

I liked it a lot because it has a very nice patio, I also liked the pool a lot. I really liked the tranquility, just what I was looking for to relax. The room was very clean and very cozy, and the bed was very comfortable. The hotel is in the city, you can walk to very close restaurants. The service was also good, especially from the bartender.
