Great experience! I love the personalized feeling of Boutique hotels and Ocean Z did not disappoint. I truly felt like I was the only person there! It was quiet, comfy, and clean. Xiomora is one of a kind! I will definitely be back!
Maria was outstanding, she made sure w had everything we needed daily and set up so many site seeing adventures. Her and the staff showed great hospitality and we will return soon
If you are looking for a hotel outside of the busier high rise area, Ocean Z is THE place to vacation ! I was so impressed with the cleanliness , comfy bed, decor, room amenities and the friendliest and most attentive staff. Arashi beach is less than a 5 minute car ride away and the hotel staff will take and pick you up whenever you choose. You are given, beach towels, beach chairs (and a float if you ask). I did rent a car for three days to explore the island and go to Baby and Eagle beaches but otherwise stayed close to the hotel and ate dinner there at the phenomenal restaurant. The complimentary breakfast was cooked to order and delicious. The food presentation was always something you’d see in a Bon Appetite magazine. Shout out to Maria, Xiomara, Sophie, Felicio and Bonnie for making my stay very memorable. I will definitely be back and recommend Ocean Z to friends and family!
There are boutique hotels and there is Ocean Z. The entire staff is 5 stars. My wife and I spent our anniversary there. The staff was so attentive and really made us feel special. It was a great week. The restaurant was spectacular. Wait staff was incredible. We will definitely be back again. I highly recommend this hotel if you are looking to escape the family vibe of Aruba. This is an adults only hotel. The restaurant does allow family seating (children/ teenagers).
Excellent service from everyone at Ocean Z!
Thank you all, Especially Maria for the hospitality!! You took care of all our needs from the time we walked in, and we WILL be back! Hospitality 10/10
Our room was very relaxing, quiet and peaceful. The outdoor shower was amazing! The welcoming gifts were very thoughtful and appreciative.
The food 10/10! We went off the property for breakfast 1 time and it did not compare. The food at Ocean Z was delicious, fresh, and beautifully presented. I even took notice that every day the table decor was changed and tastefully decorated. The staff really did an excellent job with the service. Ocean Z is in a great location with a beach directly across the street,and it’s not too far from the active nightlife of clubs and social activities. The staff will certainly guide you with some awesome suggestions to fulfill your stay!
Thanks again everyone❤️
This is our second time staying at Ocean Z. Maria is so accommodating and friendly. She goes out of her way to make sure we have everything we need from dinner reservations to tour bookings. My bf and I got sick and she brought us food and a special concoction to help with our stomachs. The hotel is in Noord which is away from the main area of hotels and restaurants, but we love the tranquility and it’s so easy to get a taxi to go wherever you want.
The ocean z boutique was wonderful. The rooms were super clean and comfortable. The staff members were great and made us feel welcomed and safe. Maria was amazing and quite honestly the best. No reason to stay anywhere else when I visit Aruba. The breakfast tasted amazing and always freshly made. My dining experience at their restaurant was also amazing and the food was delicious. Definitely coming back to this place. Thank you Maria for making our experience memorable.
Our stay at Oceanz was amazing! The property grounds was well maintained, manicured and throughly cleaned everyday. Room was clean and had everything you needed. Let me tell you, you’ve never lived until you took a shower outside.
The restaurant attached to the hotel was just as amazing. I was skeptical but every day it was booked up from 6pm to close which was impressive. We decided to make reservations for dinner and they definitely showed out it was beautiful especially when the sun sets and transition to dusk. The team does well with the little details. The morning breakfast they provide was for the hotel guests only which was cool.
But the star of the show was Maria! She was the perfect blend of what a manager should be. She made our stay so effortless it was ridiculous. Maria made sure that our stay was comfortable and we had everything we needed. She is truly an asset to their brand.
Wife and I absolutely loved everything about our stay at Ocean Z Boutique Hotel. Our room was perfect and truly enjoyed having oceanfront view. The staff made our experience such an enjoyable one. Big shoutout to Maria for making our stay so comfortable and easygoing. She made sure to always stay on top of things without skipping a beat. Xiomara also made our dining experience here a memorable one. The pool staff and maids always made sure the pool and the room remained nice and clean. It was also a great pleasure to have met the owner, Eve, who is very charming and welcoming. Thank you all for making this trip a special one for my wife and I. We can't wait to return and stay here again!
Our room had a shared infinity pool with an ocean view. The service was excellent along with the food and the ambience. Very quiet, very quaint. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful. The dinners were some of the best I’ve had on the island! Can’t wait to return.
An Exceptional Stay at Ocean Z Boutique Hotel
Our stay at Ocean Z Boutique Hotel in Aruba was truly exceptional from beginning to end. The room was absolutely beautiful—spacious, comfortable, impeccably clean, and thoughtfully designed. It was clear that great attention was given to every detail to ensure guests have a relaxing and memorable experience. The outside shower was amazing at night time!!
The service was outstanding, and the entire staff was warm, welcoming, and attentive. A very special thank you to Xiomara, who was truly the star of the show! She went above and beyond to make sure every one of our needs was taken care of. Her kindness, professionalism, and genuine care for the guests made our stay even more special. She is an incredible asset to the hotel and deserves recognition for the wonderful way she represents Ocean Z.
We also thoroughly enjoyed the complimentary breakfast, which was a wonderful touch and a great way to start each morning.
One of the highlights of the property is its location. You can simply walk to the beach right in front of the hotel and enjoy the incredibly clear water, where you can see beautiful fish swimming right from the shore. It was such a peaceful and beautiful experience and made our stay feel like a true Caribbean getaway.
Ocean Z Boutique Hotel exceeded our expectations. From the beautiful accommodations and excellent service to the wonderful staff and stunning surroundings, everything came together to make our stay amazing!
Staff was exceptionally helpful and accomodating. Breakfast was delicious; room was pristine. Can’t say enough good things about Ocean Z. We will be back

Hotel is isolated; staff very friendly and excellent, albeit pricey, restaurant; room and amenities did not justify price; only hotel I have ever stayed in that has absolutely no one on Staff present from Tuesay late afternoon until Wednesday morning.
Resort and beach view were amazing. Dining in the area was good but resort dishes in the resort were the best. Maria the host was superb and helped out so much.
Great staff, very modern, close to the beach. I would definitely stay at this hotel again.

Beautiful property. We loved the pool in particular. Excellent restaurant. Included breakfast was wonderful. Ocean Z is known for service and proved it. We had some difficulties adding a night when our travel unexpectedly changed. Xiomara in particular personified the high level of service to make it happen. We will be back!
Staff, room and restaurant!!! The staff is absolutely amazing and took care of our every need. This was our second stay, and it was just as fantastic as our first visit. We were there for New Year’s Eve and had the best balcony view after an incredible dinner at the world-renowned restaurant. Special thanks to Hernan and the entire staff for making us feel like family—once again!
