Our Story

Founders

Grand Café Mahaai was created as a place where everyone feels welcome. After many successful years running Grand Café Pierrot in the Netherlands, Arie brought his experience and passion for hospitality to Curaçao. But Mahaai is not about one person. It’s about the people who come here. Friends meeting after work. Families sharing a meal. Musicians bringing energy to the night. Grand Café Mahaai is a place for the community,  a place where locals, friends and visitors all feel at home.

Relax on the Terrace

Our terrace is the heart of Mahaai. Palm trees, sunset light and the sound of people enjoying the evening together. Whether it’s a cold beer, a cocktail or a full dinner, this is where the night begins.
