I truly enjoyed this quaint property. It was relaxing and accommodating. I didnât mind the restaurant below. Direct access and view to the ocean and sky sight lines were special and memorable. We left out daily and always returned to a clean room and fresh linens. Gabriela is kind, helpful and available.
I loved my stay at Coral Reef! The location was nice, situated outside of the main tourist area but still a short drive away from Orangestaad and Noord. The staff was exceptional both at the property and the Restaurant which was literally right next door. If you are looking for a quiet stay with great food next door, then I highly recommend Coral Reef!
Very rustic. No hot wster. Very responsive staff. Self service breakfast. Clean rooms and kitchen. Guest leftovers ( chairs, backgammon sets, kayaks )can be broken, dirty. The setting is nice and quiet. Very small grounds. If other guests have habits you may not like its hard to get away onnthe property. Restaurant attached is noisy, ovrrpriced and overrated. Walk to zeeovers!
When many think of Aruba they imagine casinos, all inclusive resorts and cruise ships. There is a lot more to the island. Ocean Reef Beach Apartments was the perfect fit on our trip. The owner and management is fantastic, the location was just what we wanted. We were there on Super Bowl Sunday and the owner brought out a big screen TV and we all watched the game with our feet in the sand! Itâs right next to Flying Fish, one of the best restaurants on the island and owned by the same person. We swam right off the dock area and kayaked nearly every day. Highly recommended
I really liked that it was far away from the high rise hotels. It was quiet and peaceful. Jenny was so nice and helpful. All around staff was so sweet. No hot water wasnât bad! Itâs so hot outside I was grateful for a cooler shower. The water isnât freezing itâs lukewarm. Shared common space was nice. Swimming was good. Additional supplies for kayaking and snorkeling was also really nice to have
Great place to stay. Right on the side of the famous restaurant âFlying fish boneâ. Can swim, kayak right off the property. It offers on site grill, three kayaks, beach chairs and snorkeling devices for guests to use. It is 5 minutes drive away from Mangel halt beach and only 20 minutes drive away from the best snorkeling place baby beach on the very east south corner
We had a great stay at this place. Stafss are friendly and nice. Erick handled my reservation change request professionally and was very polite. Victor was informative and was there to help any time, and Garcelia provided great housekeeping when requested. There are two great restaurants nearby. Flying Fishbone is just next to this property and Zeroover is 3 min walk. Two of the best restaurants in Aruba.
I highly recommend this place for booking.
Die Unterkunft hat eher den Charakter einers Hostels. Die Einrichtung ist einfach und in die Jahre gekommen. Das Personal ist aber sehr freundlich und man kann sich alles gratis ausleihen (Kanu, SchnorchelausrĂŒstung, StĂŒhle, Liegen). Angesichts der Lage direkt am Strand ist die Unterkunft preiswert.
Property was marketed as a non smoking property. It is not. Many people were smoking and with the poor quality of the doors and windows the smoke came in my room. The WiFi was poor at best. There was no hot water for showering. No beach, only a pier. Television did not work.
We liked the sunset views and how peaceful it was after the restaurant closed.
We booked through Expedia and we believed that we booked a 2nd floor room with a sea view from inside of our room, but we were told that was not what we reserved. Expedia's website also did not mention that this location did not have hot water. The temperature of the water was acceptable, but it would have been nice to know that before booking the room.
This was a nice location with friendly people. We enjoyed our stay.
Owner of property also owned nice restaurant next to it. Nice and secluded, well kept, enjoyed the privateness of the place. Peaceful and quiet. Would definitely stay there again.
Great value, peaceful and lovely staff. We enjoyed swimming off the dock in the evening and enjoying a meal on the dock while watching the sunset. A true gem of a place.
