Historic streets, garden calm, adults only

Kura Botanica Hotel keeps things refreshingly grown-up with an adults-only setting spread across a handful of historic buildings connected by atmospheric alleys. Days unfold between terraced botanical gardens with outdoor seating areas and a central pool scene with its own pool bar.

Miguel and the other staff at reception were very helpful. When we requested something they would all go out of their way for us. We enjoyed the room facing the center court yard with live music while sipping our champage on the balcony. A+ Corvi's

Right in the center of Kura village. About a 5 minute walk to queen emma bridge and about 10 minute walk to punda. The staff there were so helpful, especially Miguel! I can’t remember the gentleman’s name a the pool but he helped me find a first aide kit after cutting my knee during an excursion. They do have a parking lot however, it is shared with the rest of the village such as the restaurant and shops so, they can fill up quickly during peak hours. I would 100% stay again!

Unfortunately we had to cancel our trip; however, communication through email was amazing and they were ready to provide special amenities for a birthday that we were planning for. Next time I’ll make sure to choose them due to their customer service.

This boutique hotel is a charming oasis in the heart of historic Kura Hulanda. Our junior suite was very spacious, the pool and grounds are lovely, and all the staff were friendly and welcoming. Even though there is no on-site dining, we were able to order from an adjacent restaurant, and the bartender happily delivered to meal to our terrace. It’s a great place if you want to be within easy walking distance of Willemstaad’s major attraction, and a short stroll from some terrific restaurants and shops.

The room was very clean with plenty of room. Our balcony overlooked the Viva Italian restaurant. What made the place special was its location (located just steps from the floating bridge) and its’ staff. A special callout for both Charlotte, who helped us with varying questions throughout our stay) and Darryl, simply the most genuine and personable bar

This is such a beautiful property. The pics don't do it justice. When ppl say "hidden gem," Kura Botanica is the epitome of that term. I traveled solo and having such a welcoming energy from the staff energy from the staff made my stay extraordinary. Not to mention, being surrounded by art while in the midst of a botanical garden provided a healing energy I wont soon forget. Thank you Kura Botanica for such an amazing stay. I shall return.

I truly had such a lovely stay here and didn’t want to leave! From the moment I arrived, Miguel made me feel genuinely welcome and taken care of. My room was spotless, cozy, and quiet; exactly what I needed to relax and recharge. I really appreciated Darryl, the welcome drink and the overall warm atmosphere. It felt more like a home away from home than just a hotel. Thank you!

I wish I could give this hotel 10 stars for their great service. Flights were cancelled out of Curacao for a week in January, which extended our 1 week stay by an additional week. Despite being nearly packed, they managed to get us 2 rooms for a whole additional week. They frequently checked on us to make sure we were ok. Everyone on the property was exceptionally hospitable and went above and beyond to make our unexpected stay as cozy as possible. Everyone on site was incredible! Special shout out to Miguel (the manager), Maya (who was excellent at communicating with us, and worked through New Year's), Darrell (our bartender ;) ) On top of that, the location is unique and wonderful, lots of great restaurants, centrally located. The property is pretty. Our experience there was excellent!
