A wide variety of recreational activities is not a requirement for all travelers. While some prefer a resort that offers non-stop recreational action, others can be happy with a small selection of active recreational options, or they simply want a relaxing place to stay. Even though it does not offer a long menu of extracurricular activities the Avila Beach Hotel may have what everything you really care about.
Golf
Although a golf course isn't one of the amenities, if you're interested in spending some time on the links, the hotel can arrange for guests to play at a nearby course. The nearest course to the Avila Beach Hotel is Curacao Golf and Squash Club, 2.3 miles north of the hotel. To play at this course you can anticipate paying greens fees as follows: $30. For more information, you can reach the course at 599/9-737-3590.
Tennis
This hotel is an especially good choice if tennis is high on your vacation wish list. There are 110 guest rooms and 1 tennis court. This equates to an average of approximately 264 guests for each tennis court, which is not as good as the ratio provided by some other hotels. You won't have trouble playing a match, but during the peak season you may find it necessary to wait until an opportune time, like when other guests are getting ready for dinner. Guests of the hotel can play evening matches on a lit tennis court. This is a great option for vacationers who would rather spend the daylight hours exploring, or lounging on the beach.
It's also worth mentioning that the hotel has earned a recommendation for its tennis from Zagat's.
If you're a tennis enthusiast you may want to compare this hotel to other ones that have tennis courts â particularly those with high ratings for tennis. Two other hotels that are worth considering include Hilton Curaçao as well as Breezes Curaçao Resort Spa & Casino.

Family Activities
Though families are welcome at the Avila Beach Hotel, you should bear in mind that this hotel doesn't provide many children-oriented amenities.

Water and Fitness
Thanks to the hotel's proximity to the beach the lack of a swimming pool isn't much of a handicap for most guests, since they simply visit the beach when they wish to take a dip. And, even when they have access to a pool many vacationers actually swim very little in a pool during their stay in Curacao.
Watersports
Even though watersports aren't offered by the hotel, you can turn to one of the vendors situated along the shores of Curacao. All it takes is a few phone calls, and vacationers can schedule some fun in the water, using the services of one of these local providers.
Other Recreation
Curacao is full of wonderful things to see and do, so you aren't limited to the specific activities the hotel offers on-location. From a day spent dozing on the beach, to a few hours exploring a museum each traveler can set their own agenda.
