Book a hotel near Arikok National Park, Aruba

"We stayed here for a girls trip and had THE BEST time. The house is beautiful, peaceful and relaxing. We had previously stayed at a lot of all inclusive resorts and unanimously agreed that having our own pool and beach was far superior. The sweet owner, property manager and staff were all incredibly responsive, able to answer all of our questions and very accommodating. The house was fully stocked and we had everything we needed. We will absolutely be back!"

"This property was excellent! Here are the best parts: 1) The house and back area were huge and beautiful. Tons of tables/seating areas for big groups. Plenty of sun and shade locations to relax out back. 2) Bedrooms and bathrooms were great. Big bedrooms with air conditioners to suit each person. Water pressure and hot water were plentiful. 3) Easy to make our own meals in the giant kitchen. Also a washer and dryer right there.4) House is right on the beach so you can hear the ocean all the time. 5) The pool is wonderful and well kept. Bigger than I expected. We put the lounge chairs right in the shallow end. Heaven. 6) Host is really easy to work with, responds quickly, and very accommodating! The grill ran out of gas and he had someone there super quick to fix it. We also asked for a late checkout because one of our group members was ill and needed to rest, and he was great about it. 7) Very close (but not walkable) to a supermarket and great restaurants (like Zeerovers).Very small cons:1) Beach is rocky right by the house, but you can just walk or drive 3 minutes down to snorkel and swim at Mangel Halto beachbest snorkeling on the island. 2) You have to drive to get to a walkable beach. 3) Would love to have a local guide of nearby stores/restaurants. Yes, we can Google, but a local’s perspective would be good. 4) Traffic on the main road (not the one the house is on) can get bad, but not like the north side!Great place - just book it! Thanks, Edward!"

"When many think of Aruba they imagine casinos, all inclusive resorts and cruise ships. There is a lot more to the island. Ocean Reef Beach Apartments was the perfect fit on our trip. The owner and management is fantastic, the location was just what we wanted. We were there on Super Bowl Sunday and the owner brought out a big screen TV and we all watched the game with our feet in the sand! It’s right next to Flying Fish, one of the best restaurants on the island and owned by the same person. We swam right off the dock area and kayaked nearly every day. Highly recommended "

"Traveled as a couple and stayed here 1 night after flying into the island. Check in was contactless process, directions would have been tricky without google maps. The place was clean and perfect for one night to explore the Savaneta and dine at the restaurants close by. The mini fridge and Netflix on the smart TV were a great bonus. Thank you for a great kick off to our vacation! "

"The property is as advertised. Right on the ocean, 6 big rooms with baths. Quiet neighborhood, lots of restaurants nearby. Edward and Ton are incredibly helpful. I will definitely go back on our next Aruba vacation. It's about 15 minutes from the airport and the restaurants in the resort sector are a 20/25-minute drive and they accept reservations. "

"Everything was as seen on VRBO. EXCELLANT! Beautiful and well stocked. Everyone was so easy to communicate with. We will be back!!!"
