Unforgettable honeymoon - We spent our honeymoon trip at Ocean Z Boutique Hotel. From day 1 it was an unforgettable experience, with beautiful room decorations. Great location with front row access to the... Read more ocean and daily sunsets. The outdoor showers are a surprisingly wonderful experience. The entire staff made us feel at home every single day. Delicious breakfast included with stay at hotel, every morning we got to choose food from very unique menu items with fresh coffee and assorted fruits. They provided us with cooler, chairs, towels, snorkeling equipment and everything we need to have a great time at the beach! Very quiet and private hotel perfect for a romantic get away. Each day we would come back from the beach to find our room fresh, clean and restocked. Their private restaurant is one of the best restaurants in the world, we enjoyed the most exclusive dinning experience at Ocean Z Boutique Hotel. There is no better experience in Aruba, best unvaluable experience.

We felt like we were living heaven on earth. Thanks, see you soon. Viviana & Antonio

Amazing week at Ocean Z - This hotel has been one of the best hotels we've ever stayed at. We usually do all-inclusive hotels, but we read it was safe to rent a car, so we... Read more did. This hotel was so clean that they take pride in everything they do. The gardens are maintained so beautifully. Their building is almost spotless. Its a very small boutique hotel, but the service was perfect. Huge shout out to Maria and Jenny. Maria went out of her way to make sure we had beach chairs, beach bag, towels, and an ice chest that was filled with ice every morning. She was always happy and helpful during our breakfast. She is the best and loves her job. This hotel does have a restaurant and it's delicious. Many people from other hotels make reservations to eat here. I highly recommend it! If you want a big party scene, then this place is probably not for you. It is on the north side of the island so renting a car is a must as we traveled all over. Its close to eagle beach and the snorkeling beach all excursions bring their customers to.

What a gem! - This hotel is for those that appreciate peace and quiet - just a few minutes away from Palm Beach and local attractions.
All of the staff were... Read more friendly and helpful. Maria is just wonderful! She remembered my name and my preferences and made my stay everything I was looking for. Home away from home.
The Ocean Z restaurant did not disappoint. I ate dinner there every night during my stay. From the daily specials featuring local seafood to surf and turf - wonderful cuisine!

Perfect place for a romantic holiday - We celebrated a birthday, an anniversary and Mother’s Day all at once at Ocean Z. The room was beautiful and comfortable. Breakfast was relaxing and delicious after our... Read more morning bike ride along the coast. The hotel,provides beach chairs and a cooler of ice for you to take with you for the day. We rented a car so did not need them to drop us off at the beach. The swimming and snorkeling at Malmok is great. We lunched at Arashi or Moomba. The pool area is very quiet and has good shade in the afternoon. The restaurant has live music and we had a nightcap on our balcony every evening and listened to the music - one artist even sang opera! We dined in the restaurant on Mothers Day and the tables were beautifully decorated for the event. The staff went all out to help us celebrate our events and we look forward to returning soon!

A Gem in the North - Always on the lookout for good accommodation north of Palm Beach, we thought the Ocean Z looked worth a try for our brief pre-cruise stay on our favourite Caribbean island.... Read more Set back across the road from the waterfront, the hotel blends in nicely with the private homes along that stretch. The hotel’s parking spaces in front of it are adequate for the number of hotel guests, but space might be harder to find during dinner hours when the hotel’s restaurant attracts diners from outside.
After the excellent pre-arrival communications asking about our preferences, special occasions, etc., we were a little deflated to find no-one at the reception desk when we entered. A staff member soon showed up, though, to check us in, share useful information and help us to our room at the rear of the property overlooking the pool. We had mentioned that we were celebrating a wedding anniversary, but were surprised to find our room beautifully decorated in appropriate fashion and with a bottle of champagne on the table, chilling for us. A nice touch, very well-executed.
Our room with two king beds was spacious and comfortable, but with no remarkable features until we opened the bathroom door. Wow, it was outdoors, and with the largest shower space we’ve ever seen. The sink, vanity and toilet are under cover, but the huge shower enclosure exposed to the sky – all perfectly private, but with a strange and pleasant feeling of being in the open. We have experienced outdoor bathrooms before, but this memorable feature was more modern and stylish than any of those.
Another nice touch was the loaner beach chairs that we were able to load into our car for the short drive to our favourite beaches. They were actually very comfortable, too.
We had already chosen restaurants for our two-night stay in Aruba, but after enjoying the excellent breakfast that was included in our room rate, we regretted not having dinner at the hotel, either in the air-conditioned restaurant or on the patio outside. We look forward to staying at this excellent, small hotel again on our next visit to Aruba and will be sure to make a dinner reservation there, too.

Absolutely Perfect, Quiet Treasure! - Maria and the Ocean Z team were amazing! From the moment we arrived until we left, they were very hospitable and made our stay absolutely perfect. They helped with everything... Read more from calling taxis, making reservations, providing shuttle service to the beach, and so much more. The restaurant at the hotel was the best food we had on the island, and we tried all of the top places (get the risotto!). I was very happy that I did not book an all-inclusive at one of the big hotels, because the personal service we received and the peace and quiet being away from the downtown area was exactly what I was looking for. The host, Maria, is extremely hard working and we cannot thank her enough for making our trip so special. Cannot wait to go back soon! Thanks again Ocean Z!

Beautiful and quiet with the personal touch - For our third trip to Aruba, we decided to try something different. We had seen the glowing reviews for Ocean Z but were reluctant to stay somewhere that wasn't right... Read more on a sandy beach and required a car. Our fears were completely unfounded. This was quite possibly the best hotel experience we've ever had. Days before we arrived, Maria and Carolina were in touch about how they could make our experience special, and wow did they come through! This trip was to celebrate my wife's birthday, and when we arrived, our room was fully decorated with signs, candy and a bottle of prosecco. The birthday celebrations continued over dinner at their amazing restaurant, and even the next morning at breakfast - which is included with the room and is fantastic! We were provided beach chairs, fresh beach towels daily, an ice bucket, and water bottles. Maria made reservations for an umbrella at Arashi Beach and gave great recommendations for things to see as we explored the island. As for the hotel itself, it is quiet and private. The room was spotless and beautiful, the outdoor shower is special, the pool is refreshing and never crowded. Everything in the room was cleaned and restocked daily. Yes, you need to rent a car, but it was easy, much cheaper than taking taxis everywhere, and gave us the flexibility to see parts of the island we hadn't visited before. (Highly recommend sunset from the lighthouse, natural bridge, and baby beach.) We also loved some of the small beaches close by that are frequented more by locals. Just a perfect hotel stay and we can't wait to return.

Read more felt like we were the only ones there because of how attentive the staff was to us. The complimentary breakfast is delicious, it is within walking distance from Arashi Beach, and the entire hotel experience is clean and inviting. The infinity pool is a nice little escape if you are not quite ready to head to the beach yet. If you are planning a beach day, they will provide you with beach chairs, towels, and a cooler with ice. Don't forget to try their amazing restaurant, you WILL NOT be disappointed! Cannot wait for our next trip, until then, see you soon!

Magical! - This place is absolutely magical. We rented the entire facility to have our Son’s wedding here and it was absolutely the best place for it. The staff were incredibly... Read more supportive and friendly. The food was AMAZING! They attended to us hand and feet. Literally! I am so grateful to them for everything!!! on a scale from one to 10 they are a 20!!! Yes perfectly put together.
The only one thing that I would recommend would be to place a mirror inside the room where the bathrooms are outside because in the midst of the heat, it’s hard to get ready in a bathroom that is super hot! Not fun. Other than that perfect place!

Highly recommended.

We cannot rave enough about this place! - My boyfriend and I decided to book our first trip to Arbua for December 2023 and we weren't sure exactly where we wanted to stay. After reading many reviews about... Read more Ocean Z Boutique, we figured we would try it! Not only did this place exceed our expectations, but it truly made our trip 10x better. From the moment you walk in, you are greeted with Champagne with a view from the water across the street! All the staff gave us exceptional service, but especially Vivi! She truly made us feel at home. She was so kind, funny, and so welcoming that my boyfriend and I looked forward to seeing her each day for breakfast. Anything we needed, we would call the front desk, and it was brought up in minutes. The food was AH-MAZING!!!! We had dinner at the hotel on our first night with food cooked by a French chef, and it was to die for. There was live music, and it was a lovely atmosphere. While eating, the hotel owner would visit each table to ensure we were doing okay. Breakfast is included and served to your liking each morning. There is a cute little cove next to the hotel, Tres Trapi, that my boyfriend and I fell in love with. We were able to watch the sunset and be in a quieter spot on the beach where it felt like just the two of us. We navigated the island using the bus, which was like $3 USD one way, which was cheap and we were able to go into town or visit Eagle/Palm Beach. We cannot wait to book our next trip and return to Ocean Z Boutique. It was nice to be away from the busy hotel strip and enjoy a quieter, laid-back atmosphere.

Simply the best hotel & restaurant on Aruba. - Amazing!
If you want to get away from the crowds, have a pool all to yourself, relax in a beautiful & pristine space, and get to... Read more know the staff like family - stay here.
We stayed here for a week.
We ate at the restaurant four times. We have never done that, but the food was that good. Try the Paella, ceviche, sea basstiramisu is perfect.
Maria & Vivian were there whenever we needed anything. Always smiling, helpful , anticipating, and super smart. Eva and her son Kiki were at dinner every night - smiling even at the busiest times. Eva personally answered many questions, and would text to check on us. She has been in the business for over 30 years and executes beautifully with grace and humor.
For example, when we inquired about a good yoga class, Eva called a friend Maria who shared a great practice on the private second floor deck.
If you like crowds, constant music, drinking all day / night - stay in palm beach.
If you want to relax, connect, and experience Aruba, stay at the OceanZ.
