Ocean Z Boutique Hotel – A Romantic Hidden Gem If you’re looking for a peaceful, romantic escape on the quieter side of Aruba, Ocean Z Boutique Hotel is it. Tucked away on the northern coast, it’s perfect for couples wanting to disconnect and focus on each other. The atmosphere is intimate, serene, and far from the busy resort crowds. Breakfast was incredible—fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. Dinner was just as impressive. We highly recommend planning at least one night in; it was one of our favorite meals on the island. Arashi Beach, our go-to, is just minutes away, and the hotel offers complimentary rides, which made beach days effortless. The rooms were spotless and beautifully designed, with a super comfy bed, rose petals and champagne on arrival, and a stunning outdoor shower. Every detail felt intentional and elevated the stay. We had zero complaints and are already recommending Ocean Z to friends. Just a heads-up: taxis can take 20 minutes since it’s up north, so booking ahead helps. A truly special place—romantic, relaxing, and worth every moment.

This is one of the best hotels at which I have ever stayed. The staff is beyond excellent. The food at the hotel restaurant was fabulous. We had never been to Aruba so we were so happy we picked the ocean z. It is a small quaint hotel but very close to all the action. We rented a car and the parking was free. We met some amazing staff including Carolina, Maria and Andres. It was our anniversary and they made it so special with decorations in our room and in the restaurant. It was absolutely the best of the best.

Honeymoon getaway.

Stayed here on our honeymoon. Place was amazing. Maria was extremely helpful and we enjoyed ourselves very much. Its quiet but convenient to the higher energy parts of the island. Great sunsets and the beaches right across the street are not as crowded and have good snorkeling. The included breakfast was wonderful and we also enjoyed dinner and drinks at the restuarant. This is a very small, very nice hotel and they took great care of us.

Maria and Ocean Z were amazing! From the moment we arrived until we checked out, Maria was completely hospitable and attentive. She helped with everything from arranging taxis, shuttle to the beach, snorkeling equipment or beach chairs, dinner reservations and much more. The hotel restaurant was the best place we ate (try the risotto!), and we tried all of the most popular places. We cannot wait to go back next year and do it all over again. Thanks again to Maria and the entire Ocean Z team!
