Breakfast is included, the staff are super friendly and helpful, there’s free WiFi (which is great for travelers like myself), and it’s right across the street from a restaurant and close to other restaurants. There’s complimentary water, tea, & coffee upstairs in the lobby area and there’s a patio (this would’ve been really nice there was a view. This hotel isn’t in the best area so when you look out from the patio you see older buildings.) The room has a full length mirror, iron, and mini fridge. If you just want somewhere to sleep while you travel, this is it.

We had a lovely time at the Vistalmar villa during our dive trip to Aruba. We loved the convenience of the hotel being just a minute drive from the dive shop. After our morning dives, it was nice to relax in the comforts of the villa before heading out to explore the country. Angelique takes good care of the villa, keeping it stocked with small snacks and good coffee, and she provided us with helpful instructions and recommendations for places to go. She was kind enough to let us know about the Torch parade, which was a nice treat to be able to see. We liked the tranquility of being outside of the center and enjoyed relaxing on the private pier right along the water and watching the sunset. There's even a nice restaurant just a short walk down the road. We wanted to see the sights so we rented a car, and the villa was a great home base for easily reaching everything we wanted to see.

Very friendly & welcoming people from owner & manager to other guests. Nothing was too much trouble eg supplying a brighter light bulb in a lamp for reading. The rooms were spotlessly clean, the whole place is quirky & feels tropical.

Oranjestad has a few nice areas for visitors with restaurants, bars and shopping. The water is spectacular! It's easy to get around by taxi or bus. Aruba is very breezy and the sun is hot - so lots of high quality sunscreen is a necessity along with a secure hat. We enjoyed happy hour and small plates at Cuba's Cookin' in the Renaissance Marketplace - try the mojitos!

Most visitors are from the cruise ships, and spend a day here. We enjoyed & days of which 3 days were snorkeling on 3 different beaches (more and we would have been roasted by the sun). The town, and especially the museum is very interesting - very Dutch.
We didn't do much shopping, there didn't seem much (apart for Dutch food in the supermarket) that we couldn't have bought anywhere. Lots of kitchy souvenirs near the cruise terminal. If you like fresh fish, it is well worth taking the bus (or driving) to the "fish market" at Spanish Cove. It is just a couple of sheds on the waterfront where the fish are landed and sold by local small-scale fishermen, who will also clean and fillet for you.

I enjoyed staying right in Oranjestad because I had many options for dining out in the evening. I rented a car so I was able to go to either side of the island pretty easily from there. The Arubus station is right there so I think it would be fairly easy to take that up to Eagle beach if one didn't want to rent a car. I was in town for part of Carnival so it was fun to watch that also.
My photos are of Eagle Beach, Tres Trapi, and Baby Beach. Oranjestad restaurants: Pastechi House, Lucy's - mahi sandwich, West Deck - fish/shrimp, and Dutch Pancake House - Dutch Pancake.

The island is very easy to navigate by auto.
The island is very easy to navigate by auto. Many choices for food and shopping at the super market to grill out is a good way to save money for nights you don't desire to eat out. Sunsets are beautiful most every evening. Go to Boca Catalina snorkeling to see the Sea Turtles. If you want to feel young and vibrant go to Moomba Beach Club on Sunday evening.

careful with the taxi drivers - they dont pay attention to get you to the right destination!
also - very disappointed in Zara at the renaissance shops - its a cruise port and hotel and they wouldn't allow you in with a small suitcase - shame on them
did have a very nice dinner at wilamena - highly recommend!
Teska was a very kind and thoughtful hostess. She gave us a very warm greeting and was helpful with all of our questions. The facility was very peaceful and tranquil. The surrounding community was a bit disturbing and run down. Many dogs bark at night and people rev their motorcycles interrupting sleep. This is by no fault of the hotel or people working there. The breakfasts were absolutely delicious and reasonably priced. I would totally recommend staying here and would stay there again.
Teska was extremely helpful and accommodating. On my arrival, I was impressed how big the room actually was for the price and glad I was allowed to check in early. It is a great and safe place to stay in Aruba - I genuinely do not think you need to spend a fortune to stay at a more expensive hotel if you plan to be out and about. Comfortable bed was a key for me. Thanks and good luck!
Clean, located in a local’s neighborhood. Going to the big chain hotels, IMHO, does not give you the opportunity to interface with locals. Price was very reasonable and place was clean. Friday nites, at the plaza just down the street, there was a band, seating and dancing. Also, there was a 1949 Restored Chevy!
The apartment is just 5 minutes from the city center of Oranjestad where the main bus terminal and the harbor are.
The host is very friendly and nice. The accommodation is good value for money. There are also some restaurants and shops in the nearby.
The apartment was clean and comfortable.
it is gated community with other apartments. it was clean and has everything you need for cooking and drinking. it is walking distance from surface side beach, downtown,and grocery store. you need to rent a car to go to the hotel area where all the fun is. Shelly was very nice and helpful.
Best of all is its excellent location, since you can walk from the terminal to the hotel, because it is right next to the airport. In addition to a very good continental breakfast and the hotel staff is very attentive at all times.
Friendly reception, great breakfast, fairly good location - mind the possible extra surcharge for payment by c/c (i didn't see it in the hotel payment details). It was however handled in a customer friendly and professional way.
The hotel grounds are beautiful and well kept. The apartments are comfortable and clean. Owners very friendly and attentive and easy to reach via Whatsapp should you need anything. Supermarket 5 min walk away.
It was in the very center of Oranjestad, lots of things to do around. The lady working there was extremely nice. Good value for money as things are really expensive in Aruba. Communs areas were clean
What we liked is that the city, superfood and Palm Beach were accessible within 20 minutes. The hotel was also next to the beach and several restaurants. The bed mattress was also good.
Location is about 20 min walk from the centrum of Oranjestad and about 7 min to the beach.
Close to the airport but a quiet location.
Nice little pool.
