After arriving at Hato International Airport, the trip to Willemstad, the capital of Curacao, is only 10 minutes by car. This small port town is rich in Dutch architecture reflected in its old-style buildings and museums. Restaurants in Willemstad offer a variety of food choices ranging from European to West Indian to East Asian cuisine. One thing to be aware of is that many restaurants in Willemstad add a 10 percent service charge in addition to the 5 percent sales tax imposed by the government. One of Curacao’s most famous events, which is held every year on the first Saturday of November, is the Amstel Curacao Race, where cycling professionals and amateurs alike compete in a 48-mile race along the coastline. Willemstad also plays host to the arts and crafts, with the Plein Air Curacao Art Festival held during the last week of February annually. The Plaza Hotel Curacao and Casino is the favorite vacation destination resort for generations of world travelers, where the average night’s accommodation will set you back around $107. With its great oceanfront location, breathtaking views and gracious Caribbean hospitality, it features a diving center—in addition to other amenities—and is only minutes away from family and dive beaches.
Situated further up the coastline is Piscadera Bay, an area of the island with numerous resorts and casinos along the beach. Also located only a short way from the bay is the World Trade Center Curacao, which is one of the largest business complexes throughout the Caribbean. The Curacao North Sea Jazz Festival, which takes place here every year, showcases some of the best talent in jazz, soul, and funk music. Diving buffs can avail themselves of the numerous experienced dive operators in the area. Other activities such as mountain biking and windsurfing will make your vacation one to remember. Located in a suburban setting, minutes from area attractions and with walking distance of various restaurants and shopping opportunities is the Clarion Hotel & Suites Curacao offer rooms a $113 per night and amenities that include free access to Wi-Fi, a coffee lounge, an on-site restaurant, and more. If you would like to set your sights a little lower, then the Floris Suite Hotel, with an average night’s room of only $83, is ideal.
Unlike many other Caribbean islands, Curacao is closer to the South American coast rather than the United States. Curacao’s appeal is the authentic feel to the place, where you can enjoy the local culture while relaxing and having fun at the same time.
