What a great (& affordable!) option near Aruba’s best beaches. We stayed here a week, had a wonderful time, and plan to stay here again.
The location is an 8-minute drive to Eagle and Palm Beaches, or a 15-minute drive to Arashi Beach farther north (rental car essential)… Aruba is so easy to drive and navigate. And if you prefer to avoid the sand, the charming pool is a great option. Our 7-year old loved it, though most of the time we were the only ones using it.
The outdoor dining area is lovely, with plenty of tables and benches, though some of the wood chairs aren’t very comfortable; others have cushions. The cafe is great, with a basic menu and plenty of caffeinated options. Service isn’t rushed so feel free to linger.
Onsite parking is convenient and beach towels are provided and changed on cleaning days (not daily; and by the way the cleaning lady is just delightful).
The room interiors are clean though basic. Our room (#8) had two queen beds, firm and very comfortable. There wasn’t too much sunlight - just a small kitchen window and a medium-sized window facing the pool area. We used the air conditioning only half the time as the place was naturally cool. The bathroom was modern and clean. Having a stove was essential, as it allowed us to prepare breakfast before leaving and cook dinner at the end of the day; as you probably know, food in Aruba is not cheap.
And the hotel is very peaceful. There was one clueless idiot who felt it was necessary to slam some doors at 3am one night - hopefully he never comes back. Otherwise it was quiet.
It was also helps to manage expectations. RH isn’t rustic but modern, basic by many standards but likely upscale by many island standards at this price. If you are looking for “luxury”, you’ll need to spend quadruple the amount (or easily more at some of the high end $$$ hotels & villas).
There is also a barbecue area out back that needs to be reserved at the front desk but we didn’t use it this time around.
This Aruba hotel features rooms with microwaves and refrigerators. The hotel is one miles from the Queen Beatrix International Airport and offers an outdoor pool and free WiFi in all areas.

Condo was spacious & equipped so that you can cook food if you want. Great deck with furniture to utilize. Great little private (for guests only) deck with chairs, kayak, on the water looking at the Bay & Marina. Lots of parking. Great place to eat at the Marina called The Fish House. The owner was amazingly fast at responding to any question I had by text.

It was super, next time we will choose the same place
The architecture and atmosphere was amazing! The City has an great diversity! Beautiful beaches are close by. Most importantly, the people were very welcoming. Oranjestad promises an unforgettable Caribbean getaway.

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. 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!
Excellent location (10 - 15 mins walk from the center of Oranjestad) Excellent cleanliness, great pressure for water, air conditionning worked perfectly, same for the wifi. The beds are also very comfortable. The kitchen is small but it is doable for a few days. Excellent safety wise, little convenience located next door and more importantly, silent! Cat is also on lcation, along with a dog (not inside the unit) both friendly. Will recommend to people.
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 liked nearly everything, especially sitting on the balcony I liked very much. Very spacious. Very quite inside, even if the outside might be quite noisy. Good aircondition. Very nice and helpful staff. Great location directly in the city between harbour and main bus station. Beaches (Surfside and Druif) still within walking distance (1.x km). So my negatives are only rather minor things.
The thing I liked the most was the location. Being in Aruba mostly necessitates renting a car, but Pista Q has a great location, and I was able to walk to most of downtown Oranjestad, meaning I was able to skip the expense of a rental car, at least for a few days.
Otherwise, it was very clean, the host was very nice, AC was good, and I feel like it's a great value.
Such a gem of a hotel. Peaceful and relaxing. Those saying not in a safe neighborhood I completely disagree. Never felt unsafe & was a solo female traveler. Yes you need a car but I always get a car when in Aruba.
The staff was extremely gracious. There are so many extras…beach gear..honor system drinks and snacks. Just lovely.
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 hosts are just incredible! Loved entire family, super friendly and kind. Always there if I needed anything.
Location of the apartment is very central in Oranjestad. Many restaurants and mini markets around.
Nothing luxury, very simple but pleasant place. Amazing value for money, especially in a high season.
Beautiful very new modernly decorated apartment above some shops. Small kitchen washer dryer and 4 beach chairs. 2 separate bathrooms and bedrooms. Facing the Oranjestad trolley track on the back of complex. Go visit the “Super food plaza” lots of great Dutch food items and try a “Broodje Kroket” at food court.
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.
Cozy charming hotel, large room, comfortable bed and pillows, nice pool in the garden, tasty breakfast, friendly staff, 3 min walking to the beach, vouchers for deck chairs and umbrellas on the beach, no insects in the room
I loved that Flamingo and Iguana Island was included. The staff was so nice and tried to accommodate any problems. The hotel was beautiful and not too far from the airport. Also everything was in walking distance.
