Top Donkey Sanctuary Hotel Reviews

Vistalmar Ocean Suites

10/10 Excellent

"Great stay, i would return."

Juanedu Suites

10/10 Excellent

"Very nice and well maintain property close to the airport and Downtown Oranjestad. Great Value for the money. Nice pool and nice rooms."

Hacienda Apartments near the beach

8/10 Good

"The apartment was clean and just enough space for me as a solo traveler. I loved that it was a short walk to Surfside Beach and I did feel safe walking to and from the beach alone. Cons: The photo of where the key box was that was sent by property owner sent, did not match where the location of the box actually was, so was confused on where to find the key box to gain access. The bed was really hard and the water temperature was like lukewarm but more on the cold side. The microwave also was not heating up, which I did advise them of and they did replace it. The location was a bit far from the shops and restaurant so I did spend more in taxi fare then what I wanted to spend. I did not have any cash to be able to ride the public bus and the ATM I was able to stop at, I could not withdraw cash from. My first time in Aruba and I enjoyed it, but will opt to get a hotel on the next visit."

Serene by the Sea

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful place to stay. We were lucky enough to have a room upgrade overlooking the sea. Amazingly kind and generously helpful owners who went above and beyond in helping us out when our car hire company let us down. Totally unforgettable experience - just wish we got to stay longer,…."
