Traumhafter Urlaub auf einer traumhaften Insel - One happy Island Aruba
Pros:

Die Lage ist traumhaft, Zimmer praktisch am Wasser und auch das Frühstück wird jeden Tag direkt am Wasser serviert. Auch hat man den ganzen Tag seine Ruhe - ohne diese massen von Touristen wie in Noord oder am Palm Beach. Für Leute die sich echt erholen wollen eine absolute Empfehlung. Reno ist ein top Gastgeber und auch seine ganze Familie ausnahmslos tolle Leute und sehr herzlich. Es gibt wirklich nichts zu beanstanden.

Cons:

Nichts!

Queremos voltar em breve!😍
Pros:

Hotel, literalmente, pé na água!
O grande diferencial, é que se trata de um hotel familiar! A Simpatia da equipe , todos maravilhosos, principalmente Elisai, sem palavras !!
Recomendo o lugar de olhos fechados !!
Nota MIL, para esta acomodação !
O Hotel disponibiliza 24h por dia: cozinha, geladeira completa , pode fazer chá , café no final do dia. Caiaque, snorkel, toalhas, cadeiras e cooler para levar para as praias, sensacional!!
O que sugiro, é alugar um carro , assim, o viajante pode explorar todos os cantos de Aruba.

Cons:

Amamos tudo !!

Relaxing stay off the shores in Savaneta
Pros:

My husband and I went on a trip to Aruba for a friend’s wedding. We decided to break away from the conventional resort experience and explore alternative accommodations. After some time of doing research and exploring our options, we settled on this hidden gem that exceeded our expectations. The location was simply stunning! Waking up to the breathtaking view of the Caribbean Sea right outside our door was an unforgettable experience. The owners were incredibly friendly and accommodating, making my husband and I feel right at home. The breakfast was simple yet delicious, prepared with love by the chef. One of the best parts was that there are popular local restaurants within walking distance, and there are so many activities to enjoy at Serene by the Sea.

Cons:

This location is about at 20 min drive from the touristy areas for shopping and the popular beaches. If you can even say that’s a negative bc we had a rental car and enjoyed around the island.

Muy agradable
Pros:

Está en primera línea de playa y no hay mucha gente. Puedes disfrutar de unas vistas espectaculares en todo momento. Ambiente tranquilo y familiar en plena naturaleza.

Cons:

Estábamos muy a gusto. Lo que puede molestar un poco es que no tiene mucho ambiente de noche o variedad de restaurantes. Hay o comida rápida/take away o restaurantes de lujo, nosotros no buscábamos esto.

Un lugar realmente exquisito para descansar y disfrutar.
Pros:

el lugar es hermoso, tranquilo y silencioso. Perfecto para descansar!
El desayuno lo sirven en el muelle que da directo al mar.
Los dueños atienden increíble, realmente preocupados de todo.
En la habitación dejaron un cooler, toallas de playa, máscaras de snorkling y me ofrecieron sillas y toldo para la playa.
A los dos lados del hotel, están de los mejores restaurantes de Aruba: The old man and the Sea y Zeerovers.
Volvería de todas maneras!

Importante: tienen que arrendar auto, porque está a 20' de las playas más conocidas.

Cons:

La verdad el lugar me gustó muchísimo porque estaba buscando tranquilidad.

Lugar Maravilhoso.
Pros:

Lugar maravilhoso, excelente para descansar, muita tranquilidade e paz. Dá pra usufruir da própria natureza estando na hospedagem, por do sol lindo tbm.

Cons:

Pra quem se hospeda por vários dias o café da manhã pode ser um pouco repetitivo. E as vezes o chefe está conversando muito e esquece de cozinhar alguns pedidos.

Realmente Hermoso y tranquilo
Pros:

el sitio es hermoso, muy tranquilo, los anfitriones son muy serviciales y no molestan para nada, el desayuno aunque siempre era igual estuvo muy rico, los atardeceres son mágicos es perfecto para desconectarse de todo

Cons:

el alojamiento está muy lejos del centro, el transporte no es muy accesible y los traslados a cualquier parte salia costosos en taxi, es bien alejado de los paraderos del bus, es recomendable si alquilas vehículo, no había servicio de aseo a la habitación o no nos dijeron que tocaba solicitarlo, no hay comercio a su alrededor para comprar viveres tocaba caminar varias cuadras

Overall this place is awesome, and an amazing value, especially since we had a vehicle.
Pros:

Location is perfect and the view was awesome. Private parking was nice when it was known we were guests.

Cons:

Construction was a bit noisy, but understandable. Plumbing drains smelled, possibly due to this. Shower water heater was a bit weak.

Liebes Team!
Wir waren anfangs überrascht dass Savaneta doch so abgelegen liegt, es hat uns aber extrem gut gefallen! Sehr ruhiger Ort, nette Restaurants in der Umgebung. Danke an alle, die uns während unserer Krankheit unterstützt haben!!!! Das war nicht selbstverständlich aber wirklich hilfreich.

Great location with potential
Pros:

I loved the location right on the water. Also the massage service was phenomenal and I definitely recommend!

Cons:

I ended up cancelling because I was unaware that the hotel was under construction and I was looking for a nice relaxing stay. However, this place has a lot of potential and is in a beautiful location.
