The property is nestled in a quiet neighborhood where you are close enough to beaches and tourist activities without being near all the hustle and bustle. Perfect location if you don't mind driving to beaches.

These are apartments that are owned by the owners. They live on the property. Debbie was friendly. I wanted to cancel my reservation but was not able to. This "complex" is very well kept, clean, when I entered my room very fresh scents. Its really far away from everything so you would need transportation. The owner's can see your every move when you come and go so no privacy. But if you are looking for a place to relax and read a book. I think this is it. There were no amenities just a pool in the center and a tropical them. They do give you beach chairs and a cooler to bring to the beach. However, I would not book this hotel again.

It's a calm, quiet property with a good size pool and nicely landscaped. The owners are friendly and very helpful. Though they are on the premise, but the guests have all their privacy. if the guests need anything, the owners are readily available.

We had a very pleasant stay (1 child, elementary school). The owners Debby & Hank go above and beyond to ensure comfort of their guests. Tranquil, private, quiet place, away from the big touristy hotels. You will need to rent a car to move around the island, especially w/ child (and the hotel helped us with that).

Due to weather I arrived a day later than expected but Henk made me feel right at home. He gave me a tour, showed me my room(with complimentary espresso), and gave me a map to show me where the beaches were. Rent a car and drive to a different beach each day. Henk and Debby will give you a beach chair and towels and you can rent snorkeling equipment for the day. Paradera is centrally located so it takes less than a 10 minute drive to be at any of the beaches. There is a market less than a quarter mile from the hotel with anything you need. I enjoyed late at night when the colored lights would come on around the property, so beautiful just sitting there with a drink. I never saw more than 4 people around the pool during my stay, so it's very private. Debby is also very kind, she showed me where to park during the Oranjestad Grand Parade so that I could leave without my car being stuck. I couldn't have picked a better place.

Very disappointing. Office never answered the phone. The appliances didn’t work. No plates or silverware. Add was misleading about distance beach or really anything. It’s basically in the middle of neighborhood section. A taxi ride from here to anywhere will be about $25.00, which adds up quickly.

We arrived at Paradera Park after relocating from a few nights at a very exclusive (expensive!) venue where my fiancee had proposed a few days earlier. We wondered if we'd feel a bit of a comedown to leave a private beachside bungalow resort for more humble accommodation, but NO, we absolutely loved Paradera Park! From the moment we arrived we were greeted like friends by our lovely hosts. The photos just cannot do the garden & poolside area justice- a truly heavenly tranquil oasis, where palm trees sway, tropical flowers abound & little green hummingbirds flutter amongst their colourful petals. The pool is large enough for a swim & amazing to cool off in. The rooms are lovely, clean & spacious with lots of storage space so you can fully unpack and not have a cluttered room. The kitchen allowed us to fully self-cater, breakfasts outdoors overlooking the garden, dinners by the poolside BBQ by candlelight. The hosts also provide a large glass bottle for water and a large cooler box that we took picnics to the beach in every day which saves you loads. Beach chairs & big fluffy beach towels were also provided & you can rent snorkels for $10 a day. The best bit of a really fantastic stay was our hosts bringing us a bottle of fizz as we relaxed by the pool one day- our friends had called to arrange a bottle of champagne and the hosts went out and bought it for us and wrote the note. So special. We really cant recommend Pandera enough. Thank you for the wonderfl memories x

Ah, the calm!
So my husband and I journeyed to Aruba for the first time to attend a wedding. We didn’t seek out the typical crowded, crazy and expensive accommodations but we had a tremendous time. The island was amazing (for me, it’s always about the people and the relationships)! And Paradera Park is sublime if you’re ok being off the beaten tourist path and want a little oasis tucked away from city center and the Low and High Rise row that hugs the island’s phenomenal coast. Henk and Debby are very warm and hospitable Paradera Park owner/hosts. Their 17 unit studios/apartments are perfect if you crave a quiet, peaceful and totally relaxing environment. The only con is being dependent on transportation-either private or public-to visit the majority of what the island offers its guests. If you’re idea of vacay is to meet and greet the locals and chill, this is your place! Sit back and enjoy the place touted as One Happy Island!!!

A hidden jewel
This is an awesome hotel in a quiet location far form the crowds. If you are renting a car to explore Aruba, the hotel is very centrally located and you'll reach any location in the island within 15-30 minutes. The room is very spacious and you'll either have a balcony with view to the garden or direct access to the pool. The pool area is quite inviting, we decided to start our trip by enjoying a cold beer resting there for a while. Debby is an amazing host, she can help you by email or phone before you arrive and will have great suggestions for you when arriving. The room will be provided with beach towels and you can ask for a cooler and beach chairs to use for free during your stay. The hotel is around 2 blocks from a small super market where you can buy things for your meals if you are cooking and is about 10-15 minutes from the big super market. One of the best hotels we've ever stayed at. If we are back in Aruba I'm sure we will not shop around and just stay here again.

The perfect place to get away, while getting away.
First, let me start by saying I am a nervous traveler. I like to stick with the name brands on the main street when choosing a place to stay. My wife ultimately convinced me that we needed to stay at Paradera Park. The picture of the pool on the website sold me... HANDS DOWN THE BEST DECISION OF THE TRIP!!!! We absolutely Loved our time there. The room was very nice and very clean. The kitchen was clean and very functional. We were able to save some money on food, by making lunch or dinner at the hotel. The housekeeping staff was very pleasant and efficient. The bed was pretty soft(which I don't care for) but it was sturdy and sheets were clean and changed daily. The bathroom was very clean and comfortable, if on the smallish side. I'd imagine an average size person would be quite alright. Can we talk about the pool for a second? You saw the picture, and you were like "wow that's a beautiful pool." Well this is one of those cases where the picture doesn't do it justice. The whole outside pool area is stunning. The flowers were blooming and added brilliant splashes of color to the area, and the lights at night were amazing. Deb and Hank could not have been nicer. They were such gracious hosts and took time out to answer all of our touristy questions. They gave us some wonderful "non-touristy" dining recommendations. A rental car is a good idea if you stay here, but you are only a 5 min drive to Eagle Beach and all the mega resorts. YOU SHOULD STAY HERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Quiet, Relaxing Hotel
I stayed here in a deluxe studio with my husband and we were very happy with the hotel. The room was no frills but it was spacious and comfortable. It had a large bathroom and a little patio that faces a lovely pool area. We liked having a kitchenette to make breakfast in the morning. The owners of the hotel are very nice and helpful. They gave us great suggestions on places to go and we booked a couple of excursions through them. The location of the hotel is very convenient to pretty much everything (Aruba is tiny anyway) but you will need a car because there isn't really anything within walking distance. We liked that it is on a quiet street, not in the center of the resort area, but this is probably not the place for singles looking to party. I would definitely recommend this hotel for anyone budget minded looking for a clean, quiet place to stay in Aruba!

Quiet and secluded hotel...
Absolutely loved this place! The room has a small kitchen and pool is equipped with a grill, which is nice since restaurants are quite expensive. The owners are really nice people that strive to make your stay as comfortable as possible. The hotel is located inland away from the high rise hotels and, many times, we had the pool to ourselves. Beach chairs, towels, and a cooler were provided so you could spend the day on the beach, if so desired. Debbie suggested places to eat (all were excellent) and booked excursions for us. Literally did nothing but relax. Sweetest couple.

terrific oasis in aruba
This hotel is a gem. It is a little oasis in aruba. It is clean and neat. It is charming and inviting. The staff is friendly and generous. The rooms are comfortable and the kitchens are clean and well stocked. We enjoyed sitting on our deck as well as sitting by the pool. Take their restaurant recommendations as well---they directed us to the best local food on the island. Avoid the tourist restaurants if you can.

Great, well maintained, clean hotel
I very seldom write reviews but in this case I thought it is well deserved. I was surprised at how well furnished and clean the room we stayed at was. Debby, one of the owners I presume, was very friendly and helpful in getting us checked in. Prior to my arriving there I e-mailed her with a couple of questions and she promptly responded. Although I didn't get a chance to take advantage of it, they have beach chairs and coolers to borrow for a day at the beach. The hotel itself isn't that easy to find or that close to the beach, but if you want a good value, this hotel should definitely be on your list.
