"This place was a home away from home. Simple and quaint!! Marie and John were wonderful host. They shared local favorites for restaurants and beaches. Told us where to snorkel with turtles and what were things we had to do while there. We suggest you rent a car as you are away from the tourist area but that is exactly what we wanted. The beach out front did not disappoint. You can still drive a short distance to get to all the hustle and bustle and the tourist attractions and then return back...

"It was a nice hidden affordable gem just steps from the beach! the property was well maintained and the best part was it was close to a local bar (recommend getting the small chicharrones) a breakfast place right behind and a market 2 minutes away walking, Eagle beach is only 15 mins away by car.11/10 would stay here again. Highly recommend if you are looking for basic amenities and want to get away from the touristy area. Local are very nice."

"Perfect for a quiet stay with everything you need in the apartment and kitchen, including some shared items that, you can’t really pack on a trip that came in very handy. Everything was clean. The pool and grounds area was really nice. There is a laundry room with laundry soap and some community items that were very helpful. Central location so you can drive in any direction (recommend a rental car) to attractions and restaurants etc. a small grocery store across the street was nice as well. We...

"We had a really lovely stay at Trudy’s place. She was easy to reach and quick to answer any questions, which made everything feel smooth and stress-free. Trudy and her husband are genuinely warm and welcoming, and we felt comfortable from the moment we arrived.The yard is beautifully cared for, filled with plants and thoughtful touches that give it almost a storybook feel. We spent a lot of time outside enjoying the space and the pool — it was such a relaxing part of our stay.It was a positive...

"The rental was conveniently located in close proximity to the grocery store (C-Mart) and activities. There were some minor maintenance issues, but the host was very responsive and immediately corrected the minor issues."

"room was absolutely beautiful & staff were so helpful. there pool was open very late as well, perfect for late night swims. overall would rate this resort a 10/10!"
"We had a wonderful stay overall. The beach was beautiful, well maintained, and one of the highlights of our trip. The food was great with plenty of variety, and every meal was enjoyable. The service was also great—the staff was friendly, attentive, and made us feel welcome throughout our stay.
The only disappointment was that the alcoholic drinks were very watered down (I normally feel a buzz with one drink- I felt nothing after 2) and had a lot of sugar making the all inclusive package feel like poor value for the extra cost and not worth it."
"We had a wonderful visit to the Marriott Stellaris. We would highly recommended.
Staff was amazing.
Full services Starbucks on site.
Location was great. Walkable to the downtown area along a paved walk and beach. Plenty of food and shopping options downtown. Gianni’s Italian restaurant is very good!
Plenty of activities to do.
We traveled with 2 “adult” children and they had plenty during the day and night life.
One piece advice, when you get there, download the BON BINI! app and go to the Towel Hut on the beach. Ask the attendant to walk you through logging in and reserving a Paplapa for the next day. Reservations open at 5p each night (for the next day) and then again at eight in the morning (for the same day), but they do go very quickly."
"Overall, we really enjoyed our stay. The hotel is located in a quieter area of Aruba, which we preferred over the much busier Palm Beach. Eagle Beach is beautiful - wide, clean, and one of the highlights of our trip.
The pool area is also excellent and very well maintained. Our room was spacious, comfortable, and cleaned thoroughly every day, with excellent housekeeping service.
There were a few downsides, though. We weren’t a fan of the beach setup. The lounge chairs were placed quite far from the water and very close together. In addition, the front row was usually “reserved” very early in the morning by guests leaving towels on the chairs. Another inconvenience was that the beach chairs were removed after 4 p.m., so it wasn’t possible to comfortably enjoy the beach in the late afternoon.
A couple of practical things to know before you arrive: there is no ATM at the hotel, so it’s a good idea to bring enough cash. Our room also didn’t have a minibar.
The breakfast was the best meal of the day, with a good selection of food. However, we were surprised that only regular black coffee was included. Cappuccinos, lattes, and other specialty coffee drinks came at an additional charge, and this wasn’t clearly communicated in advance.
Overall, despite a few minor inconveniences, we had a wonderful stay."
