Beautiful new property.
Very clean and well maintained.
Delightful restaurant with many options on site open from 8-6 weekdays and 8-2 weekends.
Staff were lovely . The older lady who works in the kitchen and who was serving in the afternoon alone in the restaurant on Tues 21st May is so friendly and goes out of her way to serve well. The two young guys serving breakfast on Weds 22nd May were also brilliant. I would recommend this property if in Aruba !

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!
This is a beautiful place, just a 20 minute walk from the centre of Oranjestad. The hosts are wonderful people, very responsive to emails, and they really want you to have a good stay. They provided me, electronically, with a huge list of what to see and do in Aruba. My room was very clean, the wifi worked really well, and all the guests were very friendly. There is a central courtyard with a really nice swimming pool.
I really appreciated Maritza meeting us and telling us about the amenities, etc. It's a wonderfully clean, modern, spacious, comfortable ground floor apartment with a marvelous pool, sleek white/turquoise decor. Fully equipped kitchen/laundry. Netflix for free. The bedding and towels were all so soft and the soaps smelled so lovely! It's about a 5 minute drive into ORANJESTAD.
Hendrik is a very kind and attentive host, it was a pleasure staying at his property. The apartment itself is cozy, equipped with absolutely anything one could possibly need, and conveniently located close to the city. As I'm not a fan of fancy hotels, touristy stuff and lying on the beach all day, this place was the perfect option for me.
Room, amenities, were great. Shelly was really nice to us. Gave us extra towels. We were early to the hotel on our first day and needed to keep our bags so she let us keep them at their office. She also let us use the washroom to change and freshen up. That early check-in really helped us get the trip started on a good note.
Literally walked off the plane straight to the hotel. Ideal location for airport arrival/ departure day. The hotel itself was okay, there is really nothing to do around this area. I liked the lounge and pool area, it was aesthetically pleasing. The fitness center was a huge plus and breakfasts was ok.
The hotel's location was great. We particularly liked having a supermarket within walking distance. Our main mode of transportation was taxi and though we were a bit removed from the others, who also came to Aruba for the championships, the comfort made up for the distance.
One of my favorite places to stay. Great location downtown with access to some of the best beaches anywhere on Renaissance Island. The restaurants within the resort are a bit pricey, but good. Casino access if also nice if you're looking for something else to do.
We liked the staff
We liked the location of the hotel relative to the downtown area
We liked the service in general
We liked the open conversation area on the second floor (big balcony with seats)
We liked the shower room in the bathroom
I needed a place to overnight and conduct business by internet before my connecting flight and this was perfect . A 2 minute walk from the airport . I could check in and return to the hotel to work. Great internet, friendly staff
This property was amazing. The staff and location! It was my birthday and they made it extra special with champagne an dessert the day of. You get the Airbnb boutique feeling with hotel amenities. The view is awesome as well!
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
The staff was really helpful and nice. They helped us rent a car, even after we first said this wasn't necessary. The hotel is located in a quiet neighborhood and the rooms were really big and clean.
The hosts were very accommodating. They helped us order takeout, book a rental car, and stashed our bags for us until our room was ready. The hotel was very clean. My kids loved the pool.
Beautiful hotel, we were upgraded to the room with free island access. Even after check out we could go with the ferry to enjoy flamingos for the rest of the day.
Maurice was great and responsive. The property was spacious and clean. The pool was a nice addition. Convenience location to Oranjestad and Eagle beach.
