Paradera Park Aruba

THIS PLACE IS VERY QUIET, CLEAN AND CONFORTABLE. JUST IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ISLAND CLOSE TO THE AIRPORT AND PALM BEACH

My husband, daughter (16) and I loved the Paradera Park Apartments and highly recommend it. If you want to experience a piece of paradise, this is the place to stay. The grounds are beautifully landscaped, from the view on your patio and continuing on the few steps it takes to get to the wonderfully lush pool area. It's a plus that it is a small "resort" and not located in the hotel district because you can close out the rest of the world if you want to; and the beaches and restaurants are only a 10-15 minute drive away. The owners, Debby and Hank, are very sweet and hospitable. They provide daily housekeeping and the one-bedroom suite we rented was always very clean and inviting with fresh flowers, towels, etc. Another great feature is that they also provide guests with a cooler, beach chairs and towels to use for the duration of their stay. We'd ordered the snack and breakfast offered to new arrivals, which was already in the fridge when we arrived. The snack was plentiful with beers, soda, pizza, meats, cheese and buns. The breakfast included eggs, buns, jams, orange juice. Can't say enough good things about Paradera Park Apartments. If you are going to Aruba, this is the place to stay! PS The name(in the U.S., anyway) might suggest that these are long-term apartment rentals, however, all 17 rooms and suites are for vacationers.

We loved staying at Paradera Park in Aruba. The room was great, clean with great beds and patio. The pool and grounds are very colorful with palm trees and flowers. The hosts, Debbie and Henk were awesome. They gave us a cooler, chairs and towels to take to the beach. They also made great suggestions for tours and boat excursions, saving us some money! The hotel is in the middle of the island, only about 10 or 15 minutes away from any beach and restaurants, so you will need a rental car. Overall a great experience.

I would recommend Paradera Park to anyone who wants to stay in a quiet, relaxing place away from the crowds at the hotels on the beach. It's only about a 10 minute drive to Oranjestad and the beaches nearby. Henk and Debby are excellent hosts and very helpful. The only reason I didn't give Paradera a 5 rating is that the bathroom needed work. The shower is old and needs replacing (the doors are very hard to slide) and the toilet took at least 5 minutes to refill after every flush. The room and bathroom were spotless but as I said, the bathroom needed some work.

If I am able to go back to Aruba, this is where I'll stay. It was absolutely paradise. We were greeted in the driveway and shown where to park and given a tour of the facility and our apartment. We stayed in the studio apartment which was a generous size, had a nice kitchen, nice decor and beautiful private outside patio where we ate breakfast every morning. I did not see any of the other apartments, but they all had patio's similar to ours. The common pool and outside seating areas were also beautifully landscaped. The rooms were very well maintained and cleaned daily. This is definitely the place to go if you want somewhere that is quiet but centrally located. You will need to rent a car, but you really should anyway so that you can see the rest of the island. We loved this place!

This was our second stay at Paradera and they have made improvements in the meantime. Would return again if we get back to Aruba.

Nice place. Clean and comfortable apartment with a full kitchen. Make sure to rent a car because it's about 10 minutes drive from the beach.

We spent a week over the Christmas holiday everything was perfect. We loved that everything is so close, quiet, clean and safe . The staff went above and beyond meeting our needs. We would defenatly stay again and highly recommend this place if you want a nice relaxing vacation...

Hank and Debbie were very helpful and welcoming. They greeted us and were available every day for advice.

AC is above bed and is very uncomfortable, power strip is not working, door to the balcony cannot be locked. I rather stay with the chain.
