Handelskade Residence: Comfort at Unique Location
Summary:
★ Top City Center
★ UNESCO World Heritage
★ Stylish Design
★ Luxury Facilities
★ Unique View
★ Free Wi-Fi
The Space:
This unique apartment is located at the Handelskade in the city center of Willemstad, with the view over the harbour, the Emma bridge and the Juliana bridge. The Handelskade is one of the many UNESCO World Heritage sites on Curacao, with its vibrant, stylish and colourful appearance.
The apartment has all the necessary amenities for the perfect stay on Curacao. The accommodation comes with a stylish decorated living area, open kitchen with top of the line equipment, a clean and modern bathroom and a two comfortable bedrooms. Believe us if we tell you that you'll never get tired of the beautiful and unique view over the Sint Annabaai and Otrabanda.
Guest Access:
Apart from your accommodation you will have access to our reception anytime. Here we can book tours, you could receive information about the area or the Island, or pass by anytime for a chat!
The Neighborhood:
Punda District - Willemstad’s first colonial settlement , now a World Heritage site, this modern city center has a distinct Euro-Caribbean atmosphere, its preserved colonial buildings housing fashion boutiques, art galleries, and sidewalk cafés.
Wander down Punda's narrow cobblestoned alleys, then snap a signature photo at the Wilhelminapleins' giant Curaçao and Dushi signs. The neighborhood gets extra lively during the free Punda Vibes event every Thursday from 6 PM to 10 PM, featuring an outdoor market, live music, and local folkloric dancing. Once a warehouse district for Dutch traders, the pedestrians-only Punda, a tangle of streets and alleys, still buzzes with commercial activity. The shops here sell a little bit of everything: embroidered linen tablecloths and Irish crystal, Caribbean-made rum and Curaçao liqueurs, Gouda and Edam cheeses and fashion accessories and leather goods.
Getting Around:
All restaurants, shops and activities in the city center are in a walking distance. For activities out of the center we strongly recommend to use a taxi or rent a car.
Other Things to Note:
Freshly made up beds with the most beautiful quality linen, towels, and beach towels will be waiting for you upon arrival. Furthermore, these other things to note can you expect during your stay with us:
✔ Housekeeping (included in the price)
