Embassy Suites By Hilton Aruba Beach Resort

Palm Beach

10/10 Excellent

Hotel very well presented, still looks new, room was very spacious and quiet, with kitchen sink, microwave and coffee machine. Good choice of food and drink at breakfast and staff work hard to keep it replenished and tables cleared. Pool is a good size with pool bar and the private beach is very peaceful, with roped-off swimming area and staff to help with sunbeds. We used the hotel restaurant for dinner a couple of times, service was good and food was good quality. Easy to walk to the large...

Amsterdam Manor Beach Resort

Eagle Beach

10/10 Excellent

A big thanks to housekeeping, they go above and beyond. It is also affordable compared to other hotels in Aruba and close to a big supermarket. The eagle beach is 2 minutes walk and clean, great for swimming. It was home from home

The rooms are fantastic and have everything you need, very clean. Free yoga/pilates every morning and evening. The staff will do anything to go out of their way to help you. The location is perfect, in a really quiet area and away from the high rise hotels. The beach is the best that we saw on the...
