Breakfast and location were great!

Beds were too hard and pillows were bad

Room was good with nice view of garden and part sea. Beach excellent with plenty of beds and good service with towel 'return'. Breakfast excellent, though would have liked Tea and Coffee served at the table.

Rooms - would have liked an iron and board. also regular topping up of Tea and coffee in Rooms. Breakfast - would have liked both Tea and Coffee served at the Table. To go back and forth to collect food and drink ... food gets cold. On Entrance to Hotel - the Steps needed to look clean!

I liked that the beach was exceptional, the breakfast buffet was very good, the bar was great and The Pen was awesome. It is walking distance to downtown Willemstad. Very clean. Very helpful and knowledgeable staff.

The mattress was kind of dated. It was very soft. It was two twin mattresses together and each of them had a center part sunk like for the use.

The staff was very nice and helpful with special requests. Also the location is good, very central, to visits all sides of the Island and within walking distance of the capital. The food was nice and had good selection of food .

The octagon wing is a little out dated for my liking and the rooms less than the other sections. Don´t get me wrong, they are well maintained and very clean.

good location and nice beach

service was constantly slow. pillows were really uncomfortable, had to call reception several times if you want to get something

location, the private beaches and the clean room! the room was had was modern and had been remodeled

beachfront

Location is nice, 10 min walk from downtown and great places to eat and drink around

My husband and I celebrated our honeymoon on this beautiful island but made a big mistake choosing the Avila beach hotel for our stay. First of all, the room was filthy! Dirty towels, mold and stains all over the place in addition to broken lights and a very bed smell. We had dozens of mosquitoes in the room and also blood stains from dead mosquitoes on the walls and floor. The service in the hotel was one of the worst I have ever experienced. The staff here did not make the smallest effort to be kind or helpful with anything we needed, even with simple stuff like getting extra soap or a blanket to the room, took them more than 24 hours and 5 reminder calls. Another example of their "kindness" to their guests would be the airport transportation cost. While a private taxi from the airport charged us 40 USD total, the hotel offers pickup that will cost you 45 USD per person! Meaning $90 for the same ride! I honestly see no reason for anyone to come to this place. Do yourself a favor and spend your vacation in a place that will value you, your time and money.

Very nice hotel with a very nice beach. Good location. Friendly front dest staff.

The hotel is expensive enough to expect a warning while booking that a reconstruction takes place. The every-day-noice at 9:00 was really something not pleasant. Plus, the restaurant staff could be more nice and professional.

The property with two beaches, pool area and garden is really beautiful. It's nice for snorkeling, you can also go out in the open water (if you dare). There are plenty of sunbeds with our without shadow. We saw a lot of fish, and it's nice to look at all the sea birds. The setting of the bar and restaurant area is quite romantic. The live music was great, too. The staff was friendly and caring. Our room was fine. The bed was very comfortable. The whole property was very clean.

We had a cold shower. It didn't change after we complained. It's great we had also a bath tub, but you don't use it, if it's cold. But more important, the food was really, really bad. While the breakfast was still average, the dinner was quite poor. We gave it a second chance, but even without expecting much we were again disappointed. It was by far the worst we had on the island. There are a lot of great restaurants nearby, so you can go there. But it's sad you can't even have a nice lunch, because the location and setting is amazing! Also the drinks were quite bad. Worst cocktails we had during our 2 week stay on Aruba and Curaçao. Every beach bar offers better. The wine was ok, but only average as well. If they change that, it could easily be a 9, maybe even a 10. But not like this.

Beach, snorkeling, pool

Room, breakfast, gym

Luchtvochtigheid

location is good: right on the beach and near good restaurants

service is poor, room cleanliness is poor, food is mediocre

private beach, and restaurants n property. the views and everything was good overall.

staff at the front desk was not helpful, I had this trip planned for a while now. I booked a room for a couple with one bed and specifically OCEAN VIEWS. I get there and they give me a room with two beds and no ocean view, I went to the staff at the front desk and the lady said “well you get what you get, you don’t always get what you booked for” … so I guess you don’t always get what you pay for? and it’s never guaranteed that you will get what you booked for….. Safe to say I will not be booking here ever again….

very friendly and comfortable place to stay

great private beach with cabanas and clear waters. Good restaurant and lively music after 6pm

A?C in the rooms extremely strong
