Top Donkey Sanctuary Hotel Reviews

Hyatt Place Aruba

10/10 Excellent

"It’s great place to stay and everything was near by within a couples of minutes."

Agua Clara Eco Suites

10/10 Excellent

"Everything was great"

Vistalmar Ocean Suites

10/10 Excellent

"I stayed at Vistalmar Ocean Suites for 6 nights and had a great experience! It’s in a quiet area and conveniently located near many places, although I definitely recommend renting a car. It’s about 15–25 minutes from many restaurants, beaches, and entertainment areas. The staff was very responsive, helpful, and friendly. The pool was great and very clean as well. Overall, I really enjoyed my stay and would definitely recommend Vistalmar Ocean Suites!"

WEAVING MILL ARUBA bed and coffee

10/10 Excellent

"I had to put everything a five star because it really was. I didn’t had any negative experience at all. The host was very friendly/polite and informative concerning where to go and eat, the accommodation was clean and utilities were functional, the property and neighborhood were safe. I mean, those are the things that mattered to me."

voco Surfside Aruba by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"excellent service , rooms are modern and fantantastic, defintley be back next trip"

Juanedu Suites

8/10 Good

"Only had 2 towels"

Cozy Casitas

10/10 Excellent

"The property owner was very welcoming and helpful with sightseeing in the area. The communication and check ins with how my stay was were good. I would definitely stay there again because it is away from all of the tourist areas but still close to the natural rock formations and other attractions. My only suggestion would be to change the blinds for privacy and maybe put a shampoo/conditioner dispenser in the shower.it is hard to bring all of that through TSA when traveling out of country. Overall, I personally had a good experience."

Serene by the Sea

10/10 Excellent

"Clean room... Everyone was so friendly. I love staying near the locals and experiencing culture. We had fresh breakfast with iguanas and crabs walking around and enjoyed a sunset massage. This place is PERFECT if you aren't a fan of commercialized resorts."

Beachfront Bella Horizonte 3
