Meticulously restored 18th and 19th century Dutch Colonial Caribbean buildings around several glorious courtyards (Kurá Hulanda is Papiamentu --Curacao's native tongue -- for Dutch courtyard) comprise the village of Hotel Kurá Hulanda.

80 outstanding guestrooms marry historic luxury with 21st century necessities. Furnishings are extraordinarily unique hand-carved mahogany and teak, antiques and superb replicas and hand-woven linens from India. Delicately woven mosquito netting drapes four-poster beds providing comfort and romance. Each room features one-of-a-kind hand-painted walls by local artisans.

Beautifully carved and specifically designed standing mirrors, hand-carved bars, hanging mirrors and beds from Indonesia make a visual design connection between the guest rooms but varying patterns, colors and fabrics ensure that no two are identical.

The Indian Bridal suite will inspire couples to get married again and again just to experience this lush sterling silver surrounding. The handcrafted furniture is made of hammered sterling silver including the headboard, night tables, chairs and dressing table. Truly a suite fit for a Maharajah and Maharani.

Underground infrastructure has been installed and includes phone lines and a water system (to provide strong pressure in showers). Generators have been installed for electrical backup and will switch over and turn on in a matter of seconds should the need arise.

A sophisticated sound system (comprised of 10 zones) installed on the grounds of the hotel permits each of the courtyard areas to be suffused with music specific to the mood of the courtyard. Similar to a DMX system, the music arrives via direct satellite and is produced through built-in micro speakers.

An unobtrusive security system (manufactured in Holland) has been installed. More than 80 mini cameras are connected to a computer where the images are recorded onto a hard drive 24 hours a day.
