How to Stay Like a Swimsuit Model in Curacao

By: - February 15th, 2017

You can stay like a swimsuit model at Curacao’s Avila Hotel, where the “glamazons” featured in Sports Illustrated’s swimsuit issue (on newsstands now) stayed while on location for the magazine.

Avila is one of the best places to stay on the island, with a great beachfront location and a wide range mix of accommodations from hotel rooms to larger apartments (or, if you want to splurge, the hotel’s Simon Bolivar suite).

That’s without mentioning the hotel’s famous Blues Bar & Restaurants, one of Curacao’s most happening spots.
