Hotel Occupancy in November 2019 decreases compared to previous year

Willemstad, 6 of January 2020 – Preliminary November 2019 figures show that Curacao had a hotel occupancy of 74.4%.

Compared to the same month of 2018 (77.5%) this is a decrease of 3.1 percentage points. Compared to the previous month of the same year (October 2019: 66.3%.), however, it’s an increase of 8.1 percentage points.

The average daily rate (ADR) decreased with 3.5% compared to 2018, from $137.47 to $132.64 in 2019. As for the revenue per available room (RevPAR), numbers also indicate a slight decrease of 7.3%. The revenue per available room in November 2018 was $106.47 and in 2019 decreased to $98.69.

Interpreting this hotel performance, it is important to take the following into consideration: The Renaissance Curaçao Resort & Casino was partially under construction and renovations, Dreams Curaçao was not operational yet and the Curaçao Marriott Beach Resort opened halfway through the month, on November 14^th to be specific, and therefore did not operate for the full month.

Nonetheless, considering the above-mentioned projects as well as the ones planned in the year 2020, we can definitely be optimistic about a positive development within the tourism sector.

The data on hotel performance is collected monthly by STR. The figures are based on 11-14 properties which represent a total of 2500 rooms on the island.
