Explore the great outdoors at Renaissance Island and enjoy the beautiful sunsets during your trip to Oranjestad. Amble around this romantic area's beautiful beaches, or seek out the snorkeling spots.
If a restful vacation is part of your travel plans, Palm Beach might be the perfect place to seek out during your trip to Noord. Stroll along the seaside in this relaxing area, or check out its top-notch restaurants.
"We stay in building 2. The air-conditioning was not working in the elevator and it was already hot out side. The hallway was hot like there was not any air."
"Perfect Mother/Daughter August 2025 vacation. Fabulous staff. There is nothing they will not do for you to make your Ritz experience unforgettable. Rooms are spacious & kept spotless. On site dining was very good & convenient. Pool/beach areas are spotless & provide comfortable lounge chairs, unlimited towels, sunscreen & ice water stations (bring your water bottle for easy refills.) Segway servers are at your service throughout the day bringing drinks & food right to your seat. It is amazing to watch how effortlessly they navigate through the chairs. Pool & Fitness center are open 24/7.
Floats, kayaks, paddle boards are free of charge.
Musicians during outdoor day & evenings are so impressive. There was a different instrument each day including a sax, guitar, violin with familiar & tasteful tunes.
The spa was lovely. We did a couples massage for 90 minutes & it was the best. No reservation are required to use the relaxation room, steam room & whirlpool. This is a nice perk if you need a break from the fun & sun. My daughter & I are committed to our Ritz Aruba vaca each year. We are so lucky & appreciative to have enjoyed the best experience ever!!"
"Everything was great. The only thing I didn't like was that there wasn't enough chairs by the pool so if you don't wake up extremely early to get a chair you won't have a chair for hours. Everything else overall, fantastic"
