"Built in 1953 on the site of Aruba 's first Roman Catholic church, this humble chapel, whose name means "high view" in Spanish, earns its moniker and then some. Make the winding trip up the hill to see the best sunset of your life, enjoy breathtaking vistas of the entire island, or sit and meditate in the stone pews. On your way up, be sure to note the white crosses dotting the path. They mark the 14 stations of the cross and are the reason locals make pilgrimages to this chapel every Good Friday."

The church is in a secluded location at the top of hill and is in beautiful setting. There is also peace labyrinth here. However, I would recommend visiting here only when you are tired of everything in the island

Beautiful chapel on top of the hill. There’s a small vendor selling fresh coconut water—definitely worth trying. The area is surrounded by cactus plants, which make for great photos.

Such a lovey tiny chapel that we visited to lit a candle. The candle can be brought at the grocery. I find it interesting that this chapel was completed in 1952 and stands in the same location as the original chapel, which was built by Domingo Silvestre, the Venezuelan missionary from Santa Ana de Coro, Venezuela, in 1750.

Started at Alto Vista Chapel which was very beautiful. I highly recommend coming early in the morning around 6-8am to avoid the ATVs as there are tons that come here as one of their attraction stops. I started at Alto Vista and completed the hike here that was about two hours. The hike consisted of walking the coastline which was absolutely beautiful and so calming. Highly recommend bringing lots of water as it is very hot and not much shade.

The church is in a gorgeous setting with the cacti as its background. You may go in and light a candle or sit on a bench for peaceful meditation. The inside of the church is absolutely stunning. A labyrinth is also available to walk quietly and peacefully through.

It's a gorgeous little church. As you leave, the side of the road has the Lord's Prayer on traffic signs.

Absolutely a beautiful chapel that originated in the 1750s and was remodeled in 1950s. Outdoor seating for mass services, must be special during Christmas. Added to your list, worth seeing.

Cute little chapel with some history. Enjoyed the visit. Make sure you check out the Peace Labyrinth out back. There are also paths to the side that have some paintings, bird feeders, and lots of boulders and cacti. If you go down behind the chapel some, there is a great ocean view also.
