La mejor opción en Aruba
Pros:

Nos encantó la vista desde la habitación, el hotel es muy bonito, está muy bien ubicado ya que aunque no está en una zona tan comercial sigue siendo bastante central y como teníamos auto todo quedaba a 20/30 minutos. La atención del personal 10/10

Localização paradisíaca
Pros:

Amamos a localização pé na areia. Pra quem gosta de sossego, lá é uma delícia! No quarto eles disponibilizam um cooler para levarmos para praia, achei isso muito funcional. O hotel oferece gratuitamente caiaque e equipamentos de mergulho. Fica pertinho de dois excelentes restaurantes: Zeerover e Flying Fishbone (o primeiro tem uma fila enorme e o segundo precisa de reserva).

Cons:

Não é uma crítica, só uma orientação para quem estiver no hotel numa segunda-feira. Nesse dia, a maior parte dos restaurantes do lado sul fecha e o hotel não serve refeições.

Amazing small, family owned hotel!!!
Pros:

This is a family owned,small hotel in a quiet area of Aruba. The owners were so accommodating and friendly. We took an all day tour around the island to see all the sights. The breakfast chef, the owners brother, was our driver and tour guide. He was amazing and let us take as much time as we wanted at each stop. Couldn’t recommend this place more!!

Cons:

No pool

Relaxed und paradiesisch wundervoll!!!
Pros:

Die Lage direkt am Meer und in Ruhelage war fantastisch. Das zuvorkommende und extrem positiv-freundliche Personal.

Cons:

Das Frühstück war einseitig, später Beginn wenn man gerne früh Ausflüge macht und hat lange gedauert, dafür aber direkt am Meer 💜

This place is a gem and shouldn’t be overlooked! If you want a true Aruba (like the locals), vacation, look no further!!
Pros:

The owners treat you like family! The breakfast was great - not only the taste but the location being right on the sea. Snorkeling was fabulous! Loved having snorkel gear and kayaks available. It was away from the hustle and bustle. The beach was awesome. And did I mention the owners ;)? It was exactly what my family needed!

Cons:

Not many food options within walking distance.

Perfect vacation!
Pros:

The location could not be better… right on the water. Incredible sunsets.Super private, quiet, perfect place to relax. The owner is adorable, and her family and staff is amazing. They make you feel like family. Everything we need they provided to us. I love that they have kayaks available for the guests to use. Breakfast by the water every morning made by the Chef was the best way to start the day.I can’t wait to come back next year.

Cons:

I can’t think about anything. We really love our stay.
