The Santa Barbara Beach & Golf Resort in Curacao has joined the portfolio of Associated Luxury Hotels International, the property announced this week.

The resort, formerly a Hyatt property, is located on a 27-acre site on Curacao’s Santa Barbara Plantation. Hyatt was replaced as manager at the end of 2012.

ALHI now has 10 member properties in the Caribbean, including properties in the Bahamas, Mexico, Puerto Rico, the Dominican Republic and Jamaica.

“Its setting is incredible, and its facilities and service are first-class,” said David Gabri, president and CEO of ALHI in a statement. “Planners interested in the Caribbean for their program, should definitely consider this truly beautiful resort.”
