    About the Hotel

    An Authentic Hidden Gem in Aruba

    Within a former coconut plantation just steps away from Palm Beach Aruba lies Boardwalk, a family-run boutique hotel offering a truly unique Caribbean experience. With 49 fully equipped private casitas set amidst a lush tropical oasis complete with hammocks, tranquility zones, two pools, a cozy cocktail bar & restaurant and dedicated Boardwalk beach, the hotel is a haven of relaxation and serenity.

    Owned and operated by twin sisters Kimberly and Stephanie, who were born and raised in Aruba, Boardwalk embodies their deep connection to their native soil. During a kiteboarding trip in Aruba in 2008, they stumbled upon Boardwalk and were instantly captivated by the tropical oasis and its rich history dating back to the late 1800s.

    In 2011, Kimberly and Stephanie acquired the hotel, and in 2018, embarked on an expansion project. As the hotel commemorated its 30th anniversary in November 2019, it was reborn as Boardwalk Boutique Hotel Aruba — a testament to their vision and dedication to preserving and enhancing this hidden gem for generations to come. As of January 2025, Boardwalk is an exclusive adults-only resort, welcoming guests 18 years and older.
