One of the best experiences that I’ve had in Aruba. The excellent customer service began even before we arrived with Carolina reaching out to me regarding small details and suggestions that helped make the trip even better. The scenery was amazing! I wish I could have packed up the open air shower and brought it home with me. This will be my go to spot in Aruba from now on. They truly made us feel like family.

literally steps from the best snorkeling on the island! And, Maria will set you up with beach chairs, towels, and a cooler with ice all gratis! We picked this hotel specifically for its location near some of the islands best beaches and snorkeling locations, as well as for its separation from the mega-properties down the way. We chose the most modest room, which was well appointed and cleaned every day while we were at breakfast(included). Everyone we met, staff and guests, were wonderful!

We just had an absolutely fantastic visit to Aruba (Aug 5-10, 2024). Ocean Z is a boutique and very small hotel. I am providing the good and the room for improvement items. Good: - Amazingly good staff; very attentive and very prompt - Very close to Tres Tapes (snorkeling for turtles) - Quiet and away from the "party zone" of Aruba (we loved that) Room for improvement: - We had 2 pool suites; bathrooms were awesome. However you literally can't use the toilet from 7:30am - 11am because it's so hot. Maybe a screen should be put in the bathroom that can be drawn down - The lack of privacy when using the pool or stepping out of the rooms and the dining room is right across is very strange - Modify breakfast menu once every couple of weeks or every month? Even though we loved our stay, the staff, etc., we would not go back to Ocean Z - It's too expensive for what it offers - One day there was a party which took over the entire hotel and we were informed about it, the day off. We could not even park our car in the small parking lot We understand it's a small hotel (7-8 rooms), but when one is paying ~$500/room/night, one does expect a little bit more

Our stay at Ocean Z was exceptional. Eva and her staff make sure that your every need is taken care of. (special shout out to Maria and the bartender!) The property is beautiful and the showers in your room are addicting. They are open air showers and you get this indescribable Aruban breeze that you have to experience. The food at the Ocean Z restaurant is very good too. I ate there twice. Once for the pasta (with white sauce) and the most delicious paella! If Ocean Z has any drawbacks, they would just be two things - the glass bathroom can get very hot - a small price to pay for that shower. My deodorant melted so i had buy a new one and we kept some meltable toiletries in the room. Again, a small price to pay for that magnificent shower. The only other thing I might mention is location. Its a little further away from the "tourist action." Thats probably a selling point for many people. There is a great beach in walking distance - that they will also drive you to - but if you want to get to some of the other beaches, bars or restaurants, you will need a taxi or to drive. Taxis are plentiful and do come fast so thats helpful. So for service, ambience, food, and those showers!!! - Ocean Z made our vacation very special and I highly recommend it.

OceanZ is a quiet Ocean front oasis away from the hustle and bustle of Palm Beach, yet only minutes away by car, taxi or bus. It is the best of both worlds. It is right across from Malmok beach and Tres Tapi for easy access to snorkeling. The staff and food are beyond compare. We ate breakfast daily and had dinner twice during our stay. Our best meals were at Ocean Z.

This property is a little further away from the action, but that's why I selected it. I was not prepared for the construction on the 2 properties next door, that woke me up every morning. Apparently there are no rules in Aruba so they can start and end whenever, even on Sundays.
