Oranjestad-West Hotels

"Our first stay at this resort exceeded our expectations! We had a deluxe beachfront studio, and it was perfect for us (2 adult females). We had a beautiful view of the ocean and plenty of room for all of our stuff. While we didn't spend much time in the room, we never felt crowded. The room and grounds were immaculate. Staff were helpful and friendly. We had daily palapa and beach chairs (and towels). This was our 7th trip to Aruba and the first time we were able to use the beach (the other beach had no breeze and so just too hot). We are already planning to return to Amsterdam Manor next year!"

"If you want to relax and have fun in a beautiful setting - this is where you want to be. "

"Ocean front room. Comfortable bed. Bathroom shower could use a good rejuvenation."

"The private cold plunges were so nice with it being so hot. It makes it easier to get around to rent a car. There is free parking ! And the staff are lovely !"

"Lovely resort beautiful pools! The room was well layed out, however had the smell of moldy laundry. The food and restaurants were lovely at all times. Please avoid the concierge service. The woman with who we tried to book an excursion with at the concierge was very intent on upselling us to “her favorite” excursion, refusing to answer direct questions and instead, redirecting our attention to her preferences, taking at least 45 Minutes to show us pics on her phone, even after us saying no countless times. Finally, all we wanted was to order a cab to see the palm beach area and she gave us a hard time about that, telling us it was “closed” ( it was not) saying she alone needed to call the cab, we could not, and when I finally let her know I was getting aggravated 45 minutes later, she told me to calm down. I went ahead and booked our dolphin catamaran through the expedia app Myself, and had a WONDERFUL TIME! Our cab driver gave us his direct number and we used him countless times and he was lovely. Avoid the concierge at this resort as I believe they might be commission based, rather than guest services. Otherwise, a lovely stay at this resort, we would definitely stay again."

"Loved this place! Highly recommend everything, including food, service, activities, beach accessibility, and accommodations. We will be returning! "

"We had just a one night stay but the room was big, clean and the waterslide was fun. The staff was friendly. Especially the breakfast crew at the restaurant. "

"everything very nice"

"The outside of this motel looks good. The inside was a nightmare. This place was horrible. Unfortunately, we paid through Expedia days before we arrived and couldn't get a refund. This place is definitely an ants motel. There was also a smell of mold. The walls were paper thin. The staff doesn't speak English. They never have washcloths or towels accessible nor in our room. Outside, they're having illegal drug activities after 9:00PM. You have to move your car to the back parking lot by 9:00AM. You have to climb steep stairs to get to the room. My grandson is 5yrs old and he could knock a hole in our room door. The twin beds were well old and well used. The towel rack had only one nail left in it and it was hanging on one side over the bed. I was terrified and and asked the front desk to fix it. The room door that was missing the safety lock which was never fixed. We stayed up every night in fear of a break-in. We also took our belongings with us everyday as a safety measure. This place needs to be shutdown and to reimburse customers for lack of safety and health issues. "
