Top Palm Island Hotel Reviews

Hyatt Place Aruba

10/10 Excellent

"I stay 5 days and some staff is very rude specially in the bar it's not right because we traveling from EU for vacation and the staff do this.IT NOT RIGHT."

Vistalmar Ocean Suites

8/10 Good

"This property is not on a white sand beach or any other beach. Across the street there is a dock that you can sit on but there is not truly a beach area where one can go relax and lay in the sun in the sand. The property is nice but is practically in the backyard of the airport so there is a constant sound from large jets arriving and departing Aruba. The property does provide towels but you only get 2 to start. You can ask for fresh towels but if you want fresh towels every day you might have to pay a fee for that. The laundry facilities also come at a pretty steep price. We were told $25 for unlimited usage of the laundry while we were there. We decided to just bring our clothes home and wash them. The property overall was clean and well accommodated but does not include everything it is advertised to include."

Mammaloes

10/10 Excellent

"If you’re looking for a quiet getaway away from the crowds, Mamaloe’s is a true gem. I’m an avid traveler and it’s one of my favorite places to stay on the planet- close to the national park and a few minutes drive from great beaches and the art scene in San Nicolas. The grounds are beautiful and the architecture delightfully whimsical. I’ve stayed before and I’ll certainly be back."

Wayaca Retreat 4BR 3BA Private Pool Villa · Sleeps 8 · close to the beach.

10/10 Excellent

"Location of the home is excellent if you plan on diving with JADS as their boat is less than 10 minutes away. The home is in excellent condition. The hosts are very responsive to your requests. I would stay here again"

OCEAN FRONT-SUNSETS-PRIVATE POOL 2 or 3 bedrooms

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful oceanfront views! Private pool was a must and a nice addition! Host very responsive to questions and suggestions."

Newly Build - Across The Road from The Beach - 7 bdrm/7 bthrms

10/10 Excellent

"We had an absolutely wonderful stay in Aruba, and we couldn’t have asked for a better host than Edward! From the moment we booked, he went above and beyond to make sure our stay was comfortable and enjoyable. He was incredibly responsive and answered every question we had within minutes. You could truly tell that he cared about his guests and wanted us to have the best experience possible.The house itself was spacious, beautiful, clean, and filled with fun, unique décor. With 7 bedrooms and 9 bathrooms, every bedroom having its own private full bathroom, it was perfect for our group. We especially loved the unique pool, the layout of the property, and the BBQ and bar area. There was plenty of space for everyone to relax, hang out, and enjoy our time together.Ton, the property manager, was also wonderful. Anytime we needed something, he was quick to respond and arrive to help. He even stopped by midweek with additional supplies and fresh towels, which was thoughtful.Overall, we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. If we ever return to Aruba, we would absolutely contact Edward again and stay here without hesitation. We highly recommend this property for anyone looking for a beautiful, comfortable, spacious place to stay with an amazing host!And one little tip… you definitely won’t need an alarm clock! The neighborhood dogs will make sure you’re up and ready to start your day. Thank you, Edward and Ton, for helping make our Aruba vacation so memorable."

Oceanfront @ Mangel Halto Beach, Snorkel, Scuba, Beach

10/10 Excellent

"Loved this location because you can't get any closer to the beach. Plenty of room to spread out and relax Beautifully decorated."

Ocean Front Property - Villa 1 Aruba

10/10 Excellent

"Couldn’t have been happier with our choice here. About a 20min taxi to the “tourist” areas but the local restaurant near the villa are arguably better than the ones on the north end of the island. Beaches near us were relatively empty in comparison to the north end of the island. Only suggestion I have to future visitors is to keep the bathroom door shut when running the AC. The room gets very cold once you do this. Otherwise, it can get a little toasty. 5 stars all around. If we come back to Aruba we will be staying here again."

Bella Horizonte - Beachfront 7

10/10 Excellent

"We have stayed at this property several times and it never disappoints. Comfortable and clean apartment with a great view. Good swimming and snorkeling right across the street. Employees and hosts were friendly and responsive during the stay. Communication prior to the stay was not great however. I got no responses to multiple messages over several weeks within the VRBO app when I needed to amend our reservation. I finally got a response by sending an instagram message and they responded and gave me a WhatsApp contact. Other than the poor communication before our arrival it was a perfect experience."
