"We stayed for one night (Dec 2025) and thoroughly enjoyed the hotel. The staff were excellent, very friendly and helpful. The room was spotless, the gardens lovely. Breakfast was served right on our patio. The AC and shower both worked well. The decor was authentic and charming. We would definitely stay again."

"Carlos in the buffet was exceptional"

"Excellent spot if you don't want to eat all of your meals in restaurants. Easy walking distance to an excellent grocery store and enough of a kitchen to prepare meals. The three pools offer a lot of options and it is a short walk to an excellent sandy beach."

"Yes. The room was spotless and the staff was wonderful. Great Customer Service. Always a great place to stay when in Aruba. Thank you."

"Great resort, food was amazing!"

"If you are looking for a quiet, serene and peaceful alternative to the overcrowded and overpriced high rise mega hotel in Aruba, look to Privada Stays. The rooms are nice size with a very comfortable bed. The shower is large; the water hots and towels are plush. The plunge pool, or oasis as they call it, is slightly smaller than I expected but very private and refreshing. The surrounding walls are at least 8 feet and do tend to block out most of the sun during certain times of the day. The outdoor kitchen is very basic with microwave, small frig and electric hot plate. If you plan on cooking your meals, there you will need to be a little creative. An addition of a toaster for your breakfast bagels would be a nice addition. You will need to rent a car. The roads and streets in the area are not pedestrian friendly, and nothing is close by. I do not recommend Dollar – “Rent a Wreck” - car rental. The beach chairs and cooler are nice but there is no ice machine – you will need to buy ice at the nearby convenience store. The large pool was never crowded, and the sun loungers are very nice. Overall, we were very satisfied with Privada Stays and hopefully someday will get the chance to return."

"We loved it! We will be back!"

"We stayed there as part of our honeymoon and it was such an amazing location to explore Oranjstad. We love the hotel, the upgraded penthouse floors at ocean suites and the daily boat rides to Renaissance island. I would recommend anyone to stay here if visiting Aruba!"

"Clean room. bed was too soft and needs replaced"
