Arubiana Inn Hotel

First, must make sure we are comparing apples to apples. This is not in on the water five-star resort. So with that expectation set: Pros: Very nice staff. Very clean . Price is right. Pool and courtyard area is grand. Lounge chairs very comfortable. Homemade breakfast available . ( Additional cost , reasonable.) Very close to Super Food grocery store . Courtyard is locked to the outside world at night. Free internet . ( Worked well) Cons: Aged and dated rooms. ( clean but cramped and old ) King Bed was not comfortable. ( Sorry Arubianna , just not good ) No hot water initially. ( resolved on its own quickly ) Cleaning product used left an overpowering odor in the room AND around the inn . ( Fabulouso anyone ) All in all think of this as a three star hotel back in the states. We stayed for 2 nights , 3 days. Check in process was odd. When I made the reservation I never got a confirmation email. I called back about a month later and they said yes it was on the books. I asked them for a reservation email and they said sure and I never got it then either. Oh well… There was no one at the front office and no instructions on how to get in even though we had reservations. I had to call three different numbers on a paper in the office window but when she did answer she was very friendly and told me my key was in an envelope in a plant in front of the building. The pool and courtyard area was simple but very clean. All the other guests left each day so we had the courtyard to ourselves. Lounge chairs were very nice and comfortable. They clean with a very strong smelling cleaning agent. We ended up buying air fresheners for the room to try to mask the odor. It just turned it into a weird Apple cinnamon Fabuloso. But all was very clean . Bed was sub-par. We would go back if there was a different bed and cleaning agent was modified . Those two things were very discouraging. Simple fixes .

Small and Very clean and organized facility. Very attentive and easy-going staff. Pretty much all I was hoping to find during a holiday stay It's quite conveniently located not far from Eagle Beach (need a car..) - if you are looking for a place to stay that wraps up some local flavor, far from the giant-sized Palm Beach hotels..this is a place I would suggest!

Cute local Inn where we could get a sense of the area. Quiet and comfortable. A variety of travelers staying there and very friendly accommodating staff! Close enough to walk to a nice restaurant. Having a car to get around really necessary at least for us. Wish we could have stayed longer!

Great atmosphere, nice people, good breakfast and awesome happy hour. The location is with walking distance of everything. Groceries store bars and eagle Beach are all nearby. The owner is great she works well with you during your stay to make sure everything is good for you. If I could give 10 stars I definitely would.

Friendly staff, especially Beverly the manager , clean surrounding., Breakfast was good value for money. A full stomach each morning. We had an emergency and it was dealt with speedily thumps for the speedy response. Will definitely be returning soon and will be encouraging my friends to book if and when they need a good place to stay in Aruba.

Everyone was awesome and very comfortable bed everything was near by

This lovely little Inn was friendly and welcoming. Clean and Tidy nice cool rooms. They served breakfast everyday (not included) but good! The maid Sandra from Surinam was the highlight! She took care of all our needs. She was always smiling. On my birthday she brought me flowers! We tried to bring her home with us but she couldn’t come. 😄. I left her a nice tip! ❤️. Only downside were the mattress’s. They were Very firm. But hey, who wants to sleep in Aruba anyway! If your looking for affordable and want to stay away from the high rises…..this is your perfect tranquil spot.

I stayed at Arubiana Inn with my fiancé for the second time and we just absolutely love coming here! The vibe is so tranquil in the hotel and the staff are all super friendly and helpful. It’s really a little slice of paradise! They also host a happy hour every Thursday and a Sunday BBQ (recommend 10/10). We also had the pleasure of joining a special Arubian night where Beverly and Rose cooked their grandmother Alicia’s recipes. The setting was so nice and romantic around the pool. If you get the chance, I highly recommend this as well. It’s only once a month, so you gave to be lucky! Thank you all so so much for this wonderful stay, it really felt like coming home again to our extended family. See you soon!

Quaint motel with courtyard area . Less rooms means good relationships with staff and other guests .
