"We loved the private island!! We always got seat on the beach and ended up going everyday but one out of the 7 days we spent in Aruba. It was just so much quieter than the other beaches. And the food and drinks at the restaurants there were great. The breakfast at the poolside restaurant in the hotel was our only complaint as it was really expensive for what was offered. We will spend money on good food but it was a really basic buffet. The coffee was pretty good there tho…"

"Staff was great very friendly clean and close to stores and downtown area "

"nice spacious room, we had the unit in the back, which isn't as renovated and without an ocean view, but really private and cute, with access to a private backyard . had everything we needed, wifi was great, hot water was not super hot but was comfortable for the shower. i really recommend this place and this area if you are visiting Aruba."

"Our visit to Vistalmar Ocean Suites exceeded our high expectations. The property is in a great location to easily access the entirety of Aruba by car. Our condo was spacious, clean, and comfortable. We loved the views from our balcony and from the private dock near the bay--both spots are great for relaxing with a book or beverage, and taking in the sunset. We will 100% stay at Vistalmar when we return to Aruba. As a side note, some reviewers complain about the pet dogs on the property. If you don't like dogs, I don't recommend visiting Aruba--there are friendly stray dogs on all of the beaches and in many of the neighborhoods. The three dogs owned by the proprietors are sweet and well-behaved. If you don't want them around you, gently shoo them away and they will gladly leave you alone. Or you can be like us and welcome their pleasant company while relaxing on your deck or by the pool. "

"Was a very clean place"

"Great stay, brand new inside, excellent staff, and the food was great but small portions. Excellent hotel all the same. "

"Staff at Mammaloe’s was outstanding helpful in every way. Cabins are rustic , quaint, and comfortable. It is about 10 to 15 minutes from downtown and about 6 minute drive to the beach——- helpful to have a car. We loved being there."

"This was the perfect stay. It's not a glamorous property but the room was big and very clean with a very comfortable bed. Breakfast provided was fine. It's right on the water and beach towels, lounge chairs, snorkeling gear are available. They also have kayaks for guest use. No fighting for access to chairs or anything else. Next time we go we will be staying there. It's also a family business. Owner and her brother and son work the property. "

"Room could use some updates, bed was not that comfortable. However, the location was amazing. Probably the most beautiful beach in Aruba.... is literally right there. The host is hard to get in touch with upon arrival. If you book.. I would suggest getting check in instructions at least a week in advance. Our key wound up being in the door... but it was'nt the case for a few people who arrived to the building during our stay. "
