Hotels near Oranjestad Protestant Church

"Property is in the heart of Oranjestad, walking distance to shopping (souvenirs and expensive brands) , Restaurants and Casinos. The cruise ship will literally park next to the property. You need a vehicle to explore all the island and beaches, the property had a free parking spot (Indoors which was nice). It was clean, the staff were super friendly and provided excellent customer service. It is safe, and has 24/7 Security on the property. There is a pool, and roof top hot tubs, areas to sit and enjoy the amazing views from, and a roof top gym and washrooms (all clean and air conditioned. There is also a Bar/restaurant we were not aware of on 2nd floor by the pool, that had amazingly fresh and tasty food too, we used it our first day when we arrived late and were tired to drive, and the pizza was the bomb! Better than the ones advertising as "Pizza places". Our condo also offered us Pool/beach towels ( I wish I knew that ahead not to pack mine) and we used the washer/dryer so we packed light. Our condo had also 2 beach chairs (Probably left from previous people) that came in handy, however we did not know about them until we were there. Overall great place, I prefered it from the very chaotic and packed Eagle/Palm beach area (Which is a 10-15m drive only, so it is easy to get to ). "

"Meals were wonderful, lots of choices and good value for the money. Some restaurants never seemed to have availability though. Not sure if the reservation system was also open to the general public. If so, people staying there should get preferred treatment. Fortunately, one restaurant took pitty on us, and snuck us in. Do Not Use the Concierge to book excursions! We wanted snorkeling and sunset cruise. I think the company the concierge recommended must have been giving her some serious kickback $$$. The meal was meh. The snorkeling was rough going in choppy water. Didn't get to see anything because I was exhausted 5 minutes after getting in the water. The tour guides should have known and moved over to the over side of Aruba where I hear it was much easier. Glad we were on the far end, 2200/2300 building area. Beach was shallow and no rocks fortunately. Just past the Bunker bar, it was mainly rock to help with the erosion problem. Keep your AC on and door closed otherwise humidity condenses on tile floor and you could slip."

"Great spot and relax area… for a short rest "
