We stayed at the Paradera Park Apartment March 7-11. Our stay was wonderful. The studio is simple, clean, and everything we needed. The Housekeeping staff do an immaculate job cleaning the rooms and pool area. The rooms were spotless. THe pool water is just the right temperature...not too cold. Debbie and Hank helped us planned our excursions and they were very friendly. You must rent a car to get around. This will allow you visit different beaches instead of staying stuck at one beach. We visited Eagle Beach, Arashi Beach, Malmok Beach and Baby Beach....all great! The ATV tour is also a lot of fun and takes you to the ruins, rock formations, baby bridge, and the natural pool (bring snorkel gear for the natural pool). Aruba is beautiful and when we returned we will definately stay at Paradera Park. Thanks Debbie and Hank!

Debby and Hank (Mambo and Jamie) were all great. The room was kept clean daily by a very friendly young woman who was outgoing and helpful. The pool and gardens kept us happy while sitting and being quiet. The wildlife was interesting (birds, iguanas, butterflies). Definitely need a car, but the park was close by for walks and exercising. Aruba is not that large, so nothing is very far away. Thoroghly enjoyable, highly recommended.

The rooms at Paradera Park apts were very clean and large. Debby was very friendly and helpful. The only negative I found was the location. You will definitely need a car if staying here.
Our first three nights were spent at a quaint little place on the beach not far from the highrises. Although this is a great little hotel, ask yourself how important it is that you be close to the beach.

We stayed at PPA for one week, concluding our vacation on the 6th of March. My contention, having traveled to various properties over the years (especially the smaller properties like PPA) is that your overall experience (negative or positive) is often directly affected by your hosts. My experience at PPA was a prime example of how caring hosts can make for a great experience. Hank and Debbi not only go out of there way to make you feel like one of their personal guests during your stay, their care and upkeep of the property exemplifies their commitment to their guests experience. Clearly, I'm glad to have chosen PPA for my stay! Do, rent a car as you will definitely need it to access the beaches / good restaurants. Malumuk beach just North of the hotel zone was probably our favorite for snorkeling while Baby Beach was great for swimming and relaxing (they also have a snack bar that serves cold beer). Henk will provide you with a cooler, chairs and towels for the beach. Either Henk or Debbi will patiently give you any guidance, direction or instruction that you request. Enjoy your stay!
