Airport to Hotel: The beauty of Aruba is no stop signs/signals which facilitates very efficient travel. From the airport to the hotel location expect about a 20-30 drive Location: Being inland the hotel is. about 15-25 minutes from the beach and tourist areas. Staff: Interactions with the staff were pleasant, everyone spoke English and was very friendly. Hotel: The entrance to the hotel is gated, so alert them before your arrival. The staff will buzz you in. In the small lobby, the check-in was efficient with about 10 mins for the process. The lobby is clean and well organized with water available. Breakfast is included, which is a quaint area just to the right of the lobby. Outdoor seating is available but would recommend sitting inside. The dining hosting area is very pleasant with an acute tropical feel as though wanting to sit with a good cup of coffee. Room: The room was spacious, almost accustomed to a 1 bedroom apartment. The room was inclusive of a very nice kitchen, with cups, pots/pans, a refrigerator, a sink, and a large dining table. The room was modern and well-organized. Walking from the kitchen is the bathroom and bedrooms. The bathroom was modern with tile floors. The shower was nice and warm, it kept its water pressure and temperature. Towels, both hand and dry were organized and stacked, extra toilet paper was available. The bedroom had a large, comfortable bed. The room temperature was stable. Typical entertainment was available with TV, with limited channels. Lighting that could be turned on/off from next to the bed was available. Parking: Gated parking is available for this location. Recommendation: If not concerned with accessing the beach or tourist areas then highly recommend this hotel.

Location: Not much exists around this hotel. While nice highly recommend having a rental car or other transportation. I would not recommend using Uber as an alternative to this location

What a great (& affordable!) option near Aruba’s best beaches. We stayed here a week, had a wonderful time, and plan to stay here again. The location is an 8-minute drive to Eagle and Palm Beaches, or a 15-minute drive to Arashi Beach farther north (rental car essential)… Aruba is so easy to drive and navigate. And if you prefer to avoid the sand, the charming pool is a great option. Our 7-year old loved it, though most of the time we were the only ones using it. The outdoor dining area is lovely, with plenty of tables and benches, though some of the wood chairs aren’t very comfortable; others have cushions. The cafe is great, with a basic menu and plenty of caffeinated options. Service isn’t rushed so feel free to linger. Onsite parking is convenient and beach towels are provided and changed on cleaning days (not daily; and by the way the cleaning lady is just delightful). The room interiors are clean though basic. Our room (#8) had two queen beds, firm and very comfortable. There wasn’t too much sunlight - just a small kitchen window and a medium-sized window facing the pool area. We used the air conditioning only half the time as the place was naturally cool. The bathroom was modern and clean. Having a stove was essential, as it allowed us to prepare breakfast before leaving and cook dinner at the end of the day; as you probably know, food in Aruba is not cheap. And the hotel is very peaceful. There was one clueless idiot who felt it was necessary to slam some doors at 3am one night - hopefully he never comes back. Otherwise it was quiet. It was also helps to manage expectations. RH isn’t rustic but modern, basic by many standards but likely upscale by many island standards at this price. If you are looking for “luxury”, you’ll need to spend quadruple the amount (or easily more at some of the high end $$$ hotels & villas). There is also a barbecue area out back that needs to be reserved at the front desk but we didn’t use it this time around.

The kitchen had little sunlight.

We had a very nice stay at RH Boutique hotel with 2 adults and 2 kids. We stayed there for one week. The room was very spacious with a living room and 2 bed rooms and all was very clean. All rooms were equipped with their own A/C unit. Parking is possible on the premises behind a gate, thus the car is parked safely. The location is perfect as it is only 5 minutes away from a big supermarket (Super Food) and only 5 minutes from Oranjestad and Eagle Beach. As we had a late flight, they provided us with a late check out, so that we could fully enjoy our last day on Aruba. The employees were very kind and very helpful. Everything was arranged very easily and quickly. We had a great stay and I would definitely recommend to stay at RH Boutique Hotel.

Beautiful new property. Very clean and well maintained. Delightful restaurant with many options on site open from 8-6 weekdays and 8-2 weekends. Staff were lovely . The older lady who works in the kitchen and who was serving in the afternoon alone in the restaurant on Tues 21st May is so friendly and goes out of her way to serve well. The two young guys serving breakfast on Weds 22nd May were also brilliant. I would recommend this property if in Aruba !

People say you need a car which I can understand but we actually did tours and only used a taxi up to a maximum of twice a day which we found was similar to the cost of renting a car so didn’t find this was a problem for us. If you go alone though taxi costs may be high for you but if sharing the cost not too bad.

Overall property is very nice. The restaurant outdoor seating area is lovely and across the parking lot from the hotel rooms. The room we had was a suite - two bedrooms, bath, common seating/TV area, and kitchen with counter top island. Very spacious, clean, stocked with everything you need. Ours had walk-out access to the pool with two chairs and small table just outside the sliding door. Pool area was lovely and always had enough seating for all that were there. Beach towels are provided by the facility and changed out upon request. There really is not much more we could have asked for. It was the perfect lodging for our family of five.

One minor improvement that could have been made is to change out the stark white bulbs with something that offers a bit more pleasing ambiance. Also, some lighting in the kitchen area would have been nice to better see what you're doing, and also for the early morning. For early kitchen tasks when people are still sleeping on the sofa bed, there's not a good option to light the kitchen but not the living area. The only other problem we had was a barking dog. I believe it was a neighbor across the street and it tended to bark every morning in the 5:30-7:00 timeframe. At least half of the days there it woke me up.

The hotel is in a quiet neighborhood minutes drive away from downtown Oranjestad, with its own cafe for breakfast and lunch, but finding food places within 10 minutes drive is equally easy. It's surprisingly easy to find parking spot around Aruba even during Christmas holiday. We also cooked in the apartment using the kitchen. There are plenty of plates/bowls and utensils for 3, though only one pot. Still, we made yummy food. Overall the apartment is exceptionally clean, well decorated, super convenient and safe, and great value for family.

Nothing. The location does require a car - this is not a beachfront resort, but the lack of noise and rowdy tourists, and very reasonable cost are more than enough reasons to enjoy this hotel. On top of that, everything is beautifully decorated, from common area to pool to rooms.

I was pleasantly surprised at how beautiful this property is. It’s exceptionally clean and very quiet. You would think you were the only one there, that’s how quiet it was. The staff at this property are exceptional. From check in to check out. The guys who serves breakfast, Haniel Ramirez, Alfred Cedeno and David Herrerra couldn’t be better at what they do.!! We loved every minute of our stay. Thanks to everyone who made it possible!!

There’s nothing to not like at this property.

Emily and Jurstin were absolutely phenomenal!! I've never felt more comfortable and valued as a guest anywhere! The staff were friendly and always smiling. Checked upon us and helped to coordinate my friends bday party. They even recommended a car rental service that was extremely reasonable and accommodating! I'll come back just to stay here!! Also, it's 10 mins from all the best things. I was so happy that we were so close to everything.

I wish we had a way to wash our clothes.

The breakfasts were good and the staff there very friendly. Callie was very helpful and friendly. Always there for whatever you needed.

The location was a problem. I don’t like driving in Aruba since the changes. So I either had to get a taxi or have family pick me up or drop me off. The stairs were also a bit much for me.

It’s was quiet, and beautiful small hotel. The breakfast was always very tasty, the staff was super friendly and very helpful. They were always very kind and friendly

The only negative thing It was quite far from all the touristic area/beach But it was easy getting to those places by catching a taxi. I highly recommend renting a car to move around if you stay at the hotel
