What's Great "During the past 11 years, Dutch entrepreneur Jacob Gelt Dekker (who made some of his fortune with Kodak One-Hour Photo) bought up eight blocks of the run-down Otrabanda district and, in 2002, opened the Hotel Kura Hulanda Spa & Casino. The property has the feel of a brightly colored Dutch village: rooms are set in restored row houses along hilly cobblestoned streets overlooking downtown Willemstad and the Caribbean Sea. Wander down to the 19th-century Fort Rif, which was recently revamped and now houses shops, cafés, and galleries."

What's Great Travel + Leisure says...
"The innately modern Dutch design aesthetic and the carefree nature of the Caribbean mix at the Floris Suite Hotel. The 71 mini-apartments have clean interiors with tile floors and splashes of color. One step outside and it's tropical all the way—a thatched-roof restaurant, a bar with tables practically in the tide, nightly bands, and a pier lit up like a runway."
