Top 8 Villas in Aruba, Caribbean

April 23, 2023 Deane Carmody

Aruba is the quintessential Caribbean island, all sun and sea and stretches of powdery white sand. Time will slow to a pleasant crawl as you linger over a tropical cocktail or flutter serenely underwater, where only the parrotfish are in a hurry. The pastel façades of Oranjestad landmarks and shops lend an inviting and playful vibe to the capital city. Enjoy the shade of an Eagle Beach divi tree while the crashing waves of turquoise water create a soothing soundtrack just for you.

Poor service

Don't know why I keep coming back here, poor service. Front desk supervisor should be terminated. Don't think for a second your Marriott status loyalty will mean a thing. And a makeup store in the lobby, what an incredibly stupid waste of space So embarrassed I brought friends here

My new home in Aruba

Reviewed By 424kent

I arrived to Bubali Villas and Apartments early and was greeted by Merideth with an amazing smile. Merideth told me my studio was available for a early check-in and showed me to my room. Merideth then gave me a tour of the property and all the perks that came with staying at Bubali Villa. My stay was amazing and the wifi is the best that I have seen anywhere. The pool was nice and relaxing and studio was equipped with everything. Super foods and a gas station are nearby. Eagle beach is 15 minutes walk or 3 minutes by car. It is near major roadways for day trips around the island. My new home in Aruba!!

This is a small family owned hotel that is located about a block from Eagle Beach. Our room is a king with a kitchenette. If you are looking for an affordable place to stay close to the beach, I highly recommend it! We do have a car so I can not comment on access to public transportation.

Really quite and great place to stay!

Reviewed By jenned2014

We stayed here a week in May of 2022. Great and kind hostess. Really helpful and she made our stay super! It’s a quite area and really close to everywhere you want to be. Private parking for your rental car. We were given a free upgrade to a better room. It was no problem at all. They are doing everything for you so you can have a nice stay. Also great information of the island by the hostess! If you want to book here I would suggest to pick the rooms with pool view. There just a little bit better, more private. Just a little bit more of everything. Would recommend this to everyone who would like to have an awesome stay at this beautiful island!! Really deserves 5 star rating!

Tropical Digs

Our best stay in Aruba - feels just like home!

Reviewed By photo007

I just returned from a one week stay at the Tropical Digs Aruba Condominiums located at the Divi Golf and Beach Resort. We had a fantastic time. We also loved the condominium instead of staying at an overcrowded all inclusive hotel, Especially during these `covid ` times. Our condominium overlooked the golf course. Theses condos have full security access. Only those staying at the condos are aloud to enter. The condo was very clean and absolutely we saw no bugs! First, we took a cab from the airport which is about a 20 minute drive. Upon arrival we were greeted and escorted to our condo. Check in was easy. We had a one bedroom condo with a full size pull out couch and bedroom with a king bed. There are two bathrooms and clean bedsheets and towels were provided. The condo was equipped with the essential supplies for a full working kitchen, including a dishwasher and washer and dryer. We made breakfast, lunch and dinner daily. The odd day we would go out for a meal. We purchased our groceries at the supermarket which is less than 10 minutes away and we just took a cab back to the condo. So for those of the reviews complaining about paper towels etc, you can buy all your necessities at the grocery store just like your at home! The condo had a balcony overlooking the golf course river. It is so peaceful. The pleasant surprise about these condos at Divi is that there is a free shuttle that you can call and they will pick you up at your lobby of your condo, and drive you anywhere within the 5 Divi complexes. That includes beach, casino, restaurants, ice-cream shop and close proximity to the grocery store. We had dined twice at the Mulligans restaurant on site and both meals were reasonably priced and good. The pool is a two minute walk from the condo and beach towels are provided. There is also a children`s pool with a water slide and it seemed like the kids were having a great time. There is also a restaurant at the pool which you can grab some wings or burgers for an afternoon snack, as well as drinks of course to cool you down. The beach is about a 6 minute walk from the condo, but if you wish you can call for a pick up. The beach is right across from the entrance to the Divi village with a beautiful stretch of beach where you could walk for an hour. Chairs and huts are also provided free of charge and may be reserved as long as you have your towels. The ocean is spectacular and the weather is always beautiful. There is also a beach bar by the beach where you can grab a salad or burger etc and indulge with a few drinks, especially at `happy hour `which is 4 pm. You can take some scenic pictures of the beach there as well. A cab to the high-rise hotels and restaurants is $10 each way. The market downtown is also $10 each way. You can get some souvenirs and there are some nice spots for lunch. I must add as well that the hospital is a 5 minute drive from the condo. Very close. In conclusion, I think this is one of the most beautiful, clean and safe islands to travel to. Not to mention the condominium providing excellent facilities that are clean and safe for you and especially your young family, where you feel like your at home.! Thank you Tropical Digs, we really enjoyed our stay and you can count on me to be visiting Tropical Digs Condominiums at the `happy island`of Aruba in the near future. I will share this hidden gem location with my immediate family and friends. Thanks again Take care and stay safe!

Don't Leave Anything Behind Because You Will Never See It Again

Reviewed By tfjm1

This place is not really a hotel at all. The units are like small studio apartments. The pictures do not really tell the story as the place is not that well maintained. I only booked this because there was no out of pocket expenses using my United miles that way if I had to cancel, the miles would just be put back in my account. My advice is to spend the mony and go somewhere else so you won't be disappointed like we were. The check in was a disaster as no one was around. When we left my wife realized that she forgot her coat. I immediately emailed the manager Alex who did not even bother to reply. I'm sure that one of the house keeping staff is enjoying wearing the coat now.
