Top Donkey Sanctuary Hotel Reviews

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."

Coral Reef Beach Aruba

10/10 Excellent

"Staff was great. The quiet beach atmosphere was perfect. Use of kayaks, snorkeling gear, and beach equipment made our stay even better. Being located next to Flying Fishbone Restaurant made meals and drinks easy to enjoy at our own beach!"

Renaissance Wind Creek Aruba Resort

10/10 Excellent

"Loved all the details that went into the cabana on flamingo island. Everything was perfect!"

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."

Hyatt Place Aruba

10/10 Excellent

"For the one night stay, it was perfect"

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."

Ocean Front Property - Villa 3 Aruba with Hot Tub

10/10 Excellent

"We enjoyed the stay a lot. Clean room, with jacuzzi inside the room, with small kitchen, affordable, better to rent a car because far from the city"

Sunway Aruba Aparments

10/10 Excellent

"Very nice choice"

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."
