What Diners Say

“I had a great time, the cocktails are great and the staff is extremely polite. I am especially grateful to Diana for her smile, great service and always positive mood. I recommend this place to everyone in Aruba….”

“Ran into Miguel when he was working the lobby bar. Had a great first night at Joia, with him mixing drinks and entertaining our party. He does it all, couldn’t help notice when we first entered that he was arranging the chairs so that they were perfectly aligned to set the vibe r…” The island’s other night out is in San Nicolas: a guided red light district tour in Aruba, private round trip from your hotel, two hours, adults only, deposit online and the balance on the night.

— Stephen Hyun, 5★ on Google

“We have been poolside at ZIMA numerous times on our trip (honeymoon). Each time the service has been great, the food tasty, and the views amazing. At night we will sit and listen to the live band. We want to especially recognize Camille for her great service!…”
