About

Skewers sits in the Paseo Herencia Mall on Palm Beach, tucked into the shopping and dining complex that backs onto the high-rise strip. The focus is Caribbean flavors done casual — grilled meats, fresh fish, island spices — without the formality or the upcharge of the beachfront places a few hundred feet away. It's a straightforward setup: order at the counter, grab a table in the open-air mall, and eat without a reservation. The mid-range pricing makes sense for what it is — a solid meal between the beach and your hotel room, especially if you're traveling with kids who need something familiar but still want a taste of the island. No lines to manage, no dress code, no fuss. If you're staying on Palm Beach and don't feel like leaving the bubble, this works. Just don't expect the kind of scene or polish you'd get at a standalone spot down in Savaneta or Oranjestad.

Gianni's Ristorante Italiano

Gianni's sits on the hotel strip in Palm Beach, an upscale Italian spot serving Neapolitan and Sicilian dishes. The #22 ranking among 155 Palm Beach restaurants puts it solidly mid-pack, and the ratings reflect that: 4.4 for food, 4.5 for atmosphere, 4.0 for value. It's a convenient walk from the high-rise hotels, takes reservations, and handles families without fuss. The upside is accessibility — if you're staying on Palm Beach and want Italian without getting in a car, it's there. The trade-off is that you're paying upper-mid pricing for food that doesn't always land as authentic. The atmosphere scores higher than the cooking, which tells you something about the experience. If you're traveling with kids who eat pasta and you need outdoor seating near your hotel, it works. If you're chasing the best Italian on the island or want your money to stretch further, you'll find stronger options in Savaneta or Eagle Beach.

Dushi Bagels and Burgers

Dushi Bagels and Burgers sits just off the beach at the Playa Linda Resort in Palm Beach, and the 4.6 rating across more than four thousand reviews isn't a fluke. This is the place that figured out how to do American breakfast and lunch basics right—bagels, burgers, grill staples—without overcomplicating things or overcharging. The atmosphere score is the highest of the bunch, which makes sense when you're eating pancakes ten feet from the sand. The #10 ranking among 155 restaurants in the Palm-Eagle Beach strip says it holds its own against a lot of fancier rooms. Service and value ratings match the food score straight across, so what you see is what you get. It's casual, it's kid-friendly, and it moves. If you're staying nearby and need a solid breakfast that isn't a buffet or a burger that isn't from a chain, this works.

Azia Restaurant & Lounge

Azia sits on J.E. Irausquin Boulevard in Palm Beach, across from the Hilton, and it's been holding the #12 spot among 155 restaurants in the area with nearly 3,000 reviews. The menu runs Asian fusion and sushi, executed at an upscale level without tipping into formal—atmosphere scores a 4.8, which tracks with the lounge setup. Food and service both land at 4.7, so the kitchen and floor staff are moving in step. The price tier falls at mid-to-upper range, and the value subrating of 4.5 suggests people think it's fair for what you get. It's also kid-friendly, which isn't always a given at this caliber in Palm Beach. Reservations aren't required, but with numbers like these, calling ahead on a high-season weekend would be the smarter play.

Aruba Marriott Resort & Stellaris Casino

The Aruba Marriott sits on L.G. Smith Boulevard in Palm Beach, right where the high-rise strip meets the sand. It's a full-scale resort with a casino attached, so expect crowds, especially around the pool and lobby bars. The 4.7 cleanliness rating and 4.6 service score suggest the operation runs tight despite the size, and sleep quality holds at 4.5, which matters when you're paying top-tier rates. It ranks #20 out of 26 hotels in the Palm-Eagle Beach zone, so it's middle-of-the-pack for the area — the location and service scores pull it up, the value rating at 4.2 reflects what you're spending. If you want the Marriott reliability and don't mind resort-scale energy, it works. The beach access is the real asset here; Palm Beach is wide and swimmable, and you're walking distance to most of the strip's restaurants and bars.

Barcelo Aruba - All Inclusive

Barceló Aruba sits on Palm Beach, the high-rise hotel strip on the northwest coast, and it's fully all-inclusive — drinks, meals, non-motorized watersports, the works. The 4.7 location score tells you what you're paying for: direct beach access and walking distance to the casinos, shops, and other resorts that make Palm Beach the busiest stretch of sand on the island. It ranks #5 among Noord hotels with over 12,000 reviews, so you're looking at volume and consistency more than boutique charm. Service and cleanliness both land above 4.3, which matters when you're dealing with buffet lines and pool crowds. Sleep quality and rooms sit at 4.2 and 4.1 — solid but not exceptional. The value subrating is the lowest at 3.9, which tracks for a top-tier all-inclusive on prime real estate. If you want to park yourself on Palm Beach and not think about meal planning or bar tabs, this does the job. Just know you're trading some refinement for convenience and location.

Hyatt Regency Aruba Resort Spa and Casino

The Hyatt Regency sits on Palm Beach, right in the thick of the high-rise strip. It's earned back-to-back Travelers Choice awards and consistently ranks in the top half of Palm Beach properties — not leading the pack at #14, but comfortably above average with a 4.4 overall rating across more than 7,000 reviews. The location score is the real standout at 4.8, which tracks; you're steps from the beach and surrounded by restaurants and tour operators. The resort runs full-service — spa, casino, multiple pools — so it attracts families and couples who want options without leaving the property. Cleanliness scores high at 4.6, and service hovers at 4.5, suggesting the staff keeps things moving despite the volume. Sleep quality and room ratings sit at 4.4 and 4.3 respectively, which is solid if unremarkable at this price tier. Value scores lowest at 4.0, so expect to pay for the convenience and name. If you want Palm Beach proximity and don't need boutique intimacy, it does the job.

Smokey Joe's

Smokey Joe's sits on the high-rise strip in Palm Beach, right where casual barbecue meets tourist traffic. The menu leans American and Caribbean — ribs, pulled pork, jerk chicken — and it's one of the few places on this stretch where a family can walk in without a reservation and still eat well. The 4.2 food rating holds across 5,000+ reviews, which says something about consistency when you're feeding that kind of volume. The vibe is reliably casual — picnic-table energy, nothing fancy — and the service keeps pace even when it's busy. The mid-range price tier means you're not paying resort markups, and the value subrating reflects that. It ranks #62 out of 155 in the area, which is solid for a barbecue spot competing against beachfront dining rooms with twice the budget. If you're staying nearby and want smoke, spice, and no dress code, this works.

Papillon Restaurant

Papillon sits in The Village shopping center across from the Hilton on Palm Beach, and it's been collecting the #6 spot among 155 restaurants in the area for good reason. The kitchen runs French technique through a Caribbean filter — European fundamentals with island ingredients — and the 4.6 food rating holds across 2,400+ reviews. It's upscale without feeling stiff; the atmosphere scores slightly lower than the food, but that's splitting hairs at this level. Service matches the kitchen at 4.6, which matters when you're spending top-tier money. The Travelers' Choice award for 2025 confirms what the ranking already suggested: this is a consistent performer in a crowded Palm Beach scene. Value comes in at 4.3, which is fair — you're paying for execution and location, not for a deal. It's not a kid-friendly setup, so plan accordingly. Reservations aren't required according to the data, but walking in on a Saturday during high season is your own gamble.
