Vistalmar Ocean Suites

We loved our stay at Vistalmar! We enjoyed the private pool, we made use of the well equipped kitchen and sleep great in the comfortable bed! We would return again and highly recommend to anyone who visits Aruba looking for a mini resort with privacy and modesty!

First of all you need to know that the property is not on a sandy beach that Aruba is famous for, the waterways in front of the property is cordoned by the Renaissance Island. once you cross the divinding street, there is a patch of sand that leads to a padlocked gate to stairs down to the water - chairs on rocks. It is a boatyard. Beyond that the property is clean with a wonderful garden and a small wading pool. Dogs roam the property (not stray), they are friendly but do sleep on deck chairs leaving them hairy and bark at night or early morning. I recommend renting a car if you stay here, the property is behind the airport, so you have to go by the airport roundabout to visit the main city or good restaurants. The fish house restaurant near the property is within walking distance (3 min) and serves good fish and it is frequented by locals. The inbuilt safe in the property did not work, check-in was easy, the bed was comfortable, but pillows were flat. The rolling bathroom door kept coming off its rails, Bathroom soap and shampoo were from local Aloe plant and good quality. It is in a safe mainly residential area with businesses on the waterfront. Maybe a bus service twice a day. CMart grocery store is approximatley 7 min. drive and the place has fully equipped utensils and Kitchen appliances, Property faces SouthWest, sunset on right side. You will be able to see airplane hangers on the NE side but not much airplane noise (few flights).

Perfect spot with 4 legged friends The location is a convenient drive to great restaurants and shopping in town and the airport. The was an amazing restaurant just down the road (less than a minute walk) as well. The personal pier was so relaxing with perfect sunset views. And we lovvvvvved the dogs. It was very hard leaving! We would 100% book here again!

Booked 5 days and 4 nights, suite was extremely clean and comfortable. This property was well maintained. We had a small issue with the bathroom pocket door sticking, this was corrected immediately. We requested an extra day and was able to stay in the same room without any issues. I will definitely book this property again! A true hidden gem!

Great property with private dipping pools and very nice rooms. Loved everything about the place except the communication at first was quite sketchy and we had no clean pool towels or room towels or toilet paper for a time. They did fix it though so I give them kudos for that.

The linens were stained, pillows very flat, dishes were very dirty with a bad smell. There was a two drawer dresser, which was filled with dirty cloths from a previous stay. Overall nice environment with lots of polite dogs who gave you a warm welcome. Extremely windy!
