Rancho Hotels, Oranjestad

"We stayed in the recently renovated building and it was lovely. We had an all inclusive package…food was ok just wish they had more bartenders working at once. We found it hard to get a drink in a timely fashion. The resort isn’t ON THE BEACH, but the beach is literally across the street. Please bring your own reusable straws as the island doesn’t use straws in drinks."

"I arranged a trip for (16) sixty-five year old couple at this adult's only all inclusive resort and there wasn't a single thing that could have been better from buffet breakfast, lunches, buffet dinners and full service restaurants. SO GOOD we will be going back again (and again!)"

"Resort was excellent. Right on a very nice beach. Meals were superb but a little difficult making reservations before they were unavailable. Buffers were excellent though also Staff was very friendly. Mostly helpful "

"One of the best vacations I’ve ever taken if you’re looking to go anywhere you should go here at the staff are so friendly and the amenities are amazing. The food was great and the drinks were flying. It was just an all-around great time."

"Overall good & an enjoyable stay."

"The property is modern, clean, and visually impressive with strong amenities, but the overall experience was inconsistent and did not reflect a true luxury stay. Before arrival, I emailed requesting a simple birthday room setup and received no response. Check-in felt rushed and disorganized with unclear communication around deposits and payment methods. During the stay, we were approached by an events representative promoting a vacation club after clearly declining, which felt persistent. We also received unsolicited calls about checkout logistics despite not requesting assistance. Room service and billing had inconsistencies, including items said to be included but later charged. We also received an unrequested complimentary cheese/fruit platter and sparkling wine with no explanation. The pool was quiet and enjoyable, but the jacuzzi was not heated and matched pool temperature despite guest concerns. Breakfast was good, though the checkbook/tipping process felt transactional. Positive staff included poolside, spa, housekeeping, café, and taxi service teams who were friendly and professional. At checkout, unresolved billing issues carried over. Apple Pay repeatedly failed, and in front of other guests, the staff member assisting us (Melany) made a comment suggesting the issue “might be because of the amount,” which felt unprofessional. Overall, the property is beautiful, but front desk communication, checkout handling, and service inconsistencies impacted the stay."

"Furniture in lobby was stained due to being fabric which means it’s not easily disinfected. Baseboards in room and bathroom were dirty. Rug in living area of room had stains. Refrigerator smelled terrible. The actually room surfaces, linens, furniture was clean and comfortable. Room was spacious. Staff was very friendly and helpful. "
