I stayed at the Aruban last week, and my stay was definitely better than others who have reviewed this hotel. The Resort: The grounds are beautiful with 2 pools, impeccable landscaping and cleanliness. With Dunkin Donuts / Baskin Robbins in the pool area, it is fabulous to go get morning coffee before a walk on the beach or a day... more

Being that the hotel used to be a time share, it gave a good condo feel and was pretty roomy with a balcony that faced the inner portion of the hotel where the pool was located. We requested the 5th floor which gave us a desent view, however that level was being renovated when we where there. Housekeeping was pretty... more

My husband and I had two weeks at the Aruban and have had nothing to complain about. The people were very nice and helped with whatever we needed. The room was very clean and everything worked. We had breakfast in our room and went to several restaurants in the evening. The beach on the other side of La Cabana is... more

My girlfriend and I found a very cheap deal on Expedia for a trip to Aruba for five days in September 2009. We booked a room at the Aruban Resort, on Eagle Beach. Afterwards, we read a number of reviews of the Aruban on tripadvisor, and needless to say, we were quite concerned, especially about cleanliness and service. To those... more

The hotel we booked was supposedly under renovation. When we booked, we were told we would be in the upgraded rooms. Turns out, the property was less than 5% renovated and we were put in a room that took you back to the 1970's. The room gave me a gross feeling. Couldn't help but wonder what was crawling on me... more

Please don't mind the username :D Kinda of a long review but very detailed. Now where to start? Please keep in mind that this review is based on the Hotel and not the character of the people nor the island. Arrival at the hotel: The lobby area was a open space area with no A.C. Didn't matter until it was... more

The Hotel might not have been the paradise but Aruba was and these are the memories I have from that trip. I thought the hotel was nice, large pool, large rooms and good service. Of course it is not a 5 five star accomodation, the decoration and furniture seem old, although they are making renovations currently. Overall I think it... more

The hotel is very close to one of the most beautiful beaches in the world and the price is quite affordable, especially for families. It's in a very good location and buses running regularly to get to the restaurant area. It's perfect for families with kids as there's a beautiful pool and Aruba is extremely safe. The rooms are a... more

This hotel is still under some construction. It was very clean and security men were very efficent. Everyone was friendly. There were two pools, both were great. If you need to keep your expenses down, I would recommend this hotel. It is not the top of the line but it serves its purpose. Those are the pros of this hotel.... more
