  This was our second visit for dinner. Very good food, atmosphere, service-we sat inside, as pictured left. It's our favorite overall experience dining spot. We tried Paella which takes extra...

The owner/host is always interested in her guests, it's a special place.

  My wife and I just completed a 7 night stay at the Ocean Z Boutique Hotel and Restaurant. How often do you feel like you’ve made lifelong friends with... Read more the staff of your hotel after a week’s stay? At the Ocean Z, you will! Thanks to Eva, Liancita, Maria and the rest of the staff for satisfying all requests with a smile and extending hospitality beyond any expectations. Breakfast, included with your room, is homemade, delicious, and made exactly as you want it. Dinner at their restaurant is a pure culinary delight from Sophie their hostess, to Eva, the owner, who makes everyone feel like they are eating in her personal dining room. The Paella at dinner was fabulous as was the Chef’s Steak Special!
The hotel is very close to the Arashi Beach, providing chairs and a cooler for the beach. The room accommodations are wonderful, with all the rooms surrounding a magnificent pool area. We can’t wait to return and will be back

  Ocean Z iz the best..  - When you leave you felt like you left family behind. We are in the travel industry and love supporting boutique hotels like this. This hotel has such personal touches all... Read more over it and love the size. Leoncita is a rock star for Ocean Z and such a big help for all things Aruba. She was always available for any questions we may have had, transportation, restaurants,etc. Just a wonderful person. Maria who served us breakfast and also was our driver/shuttle to the beach is a special person too. Just like we said, you feel welcomed, well served and most of all no stress. Breakfast was nice every morning and we had dinner there one night and the ceviche was some of the best you will have. Overall a must stay for when your staying in Aruba. Get away from the chains on the strip and enjoy the best part of Aruba.

The entire dining experience was phenomenal from the time we were greeted by the hostess, through the "good night" and "thank you," on our way out. Eva is the restaurant's owner, and she was very involved with our time at the OceanZ. She welcomed us, provided very detailed descriptions of the menu, and answered all of our questions. Eva made some excellent menu recommendations since this was our first time dining with them. She did not disappoint! Kudos for every recommendation that Eva provided from the appetizers (Tuna Tar Tar and Ceviche), wine pairing, to the main course entrees and desserts. Everything we ordered was superb and quite delicious! The ambience was beyond anything we could have asked for. We had an outdoor table with a gorgeous view of the sunset. The entertainment played the violin beautifully, and the song selection was perfect. She also had a great voice; which added an extra touch to her performance. Eva and her staff provided a top-notch service for our last dinner in Aruba. Between the outstanding customer service, delicious cuisine and sublime location, we could not have asked for a better experience.

  Perfection  - My husband and I stayed for 5 nights at this beautiful boutique hotel for my birthday celebration and it surpassed all of our (very high) expectations. It is a beautiful... Read more property that offers tremendous privacy given the small number of rooms combined with exceptional service. In my opinion it is the ideal combination of privacy that would be provided by renting a house with the additional advantage of expert advice and concierge service you receive only at top resorts. The hotel also has the top rated restaurant on the island which we thoroughly enjoyed on two of our evenings. What was truly exceptional however was the genuine kindness of the entire hotel staff including Eva the Director and the extraordinary Leoncita who serves as concierge. The hotel is ideally located - close enough to the most popular beaches should you want to enjoy those (which we did) and close enough to Arashi beach (beautiful and tranquil) to walk to. We saw much of the island on our stay and I could not imagine a better choice to stay at than Ocean Z. Thank you Eva, Leoncita and all Ocean Z staff for memories that will stay with us a lifetime.

  We recently stayed at Ocean Z. This was our third visit to Ocean Z; we have been here before and now during Covid concerns. It was (and still is)... Read more the cleanest, most pristine hotel you will ever stay in. The location is perfect: it is in a quiet stretch of the island across the street from a beautiful beach. The views from the rooms in the front of the building are amazing. We enjoyed a delicious dinner at the hotel on our first night. Lastly, the staff is welcoming and ready to assist if you need. A huge shout out to Andreina, who makes us feel at home when we visit. She can answer any questions you might have, make arrangements if you like, and that is in addition to many other things she does behind the scenes to ensure a wonderful time. More
