"Our stay at the Embassy Suites in Aruba was really good! 🌴☀️ The view was amazing, and for our first time visiting Aruba, we truly enjoyed our stay. We especially loved the complimentary happy hour and free breakfast, which were a great added bonus. The beach was absolutely amazing—whether you wanted to relax, snorkel, or simply sit back and enjoy the sunset, there was something for everyone. 🌊🤿🌅 Another plus was that parking was free and felt safe, and the staff was very helpful and kind throughout our stay. My only complaint would be the amount of sand on the floors from being so close to the beach. However, housekeeping cleaned my floor when I requested it, so that was resolved. I also really appreciated that they have a washer and dryer in the facility. It was so convenient to be able to wash our swimsuits in the laundry area. Overall, we had a wonderful first experience in Aruba and really enjoyed our stay at the Embassy Suites! ❤️🇦🇼"

"We had a wonderful stay overall and really enjoyed our time at this resort. From the moment you arrive, the beautiful grand entrance and impressive architecture give the property a very special feel. The resort itself was very clean, beautifully designed, and had a welcoming, relaxing atmosphere. We especially enjoyed the food. The buffet had a great selection and everything we tried was delicious. We also loved the layout of the restaurants and the overall dining experience. The cleaning staff deserves a special mention as well — they were friendly, attentive, and spoke excellent English, which made communication very easy. The pool area was another highlight. There were plenty of activities around the pool, creating a fun and lively atmosphere without taking away from the relaxing resort experience. And of course, the beach was absolutely beautiful! The beach and the gorgeous water were definitely among our favorite parts of the trip. There were just a few things that could be improved. We noticed an unpleasant bathroom- type odor in the elevator and hallway near our room, the room floor could have been mopped a little better before check-in, and bathroom necessities could have been replenished more generously. We also experienced a delayed check-in and would have appreciated a little more assistance from the hotel staff while we waited. These were relatively small things compared to everything we enjoyed about the resort. We’ll be back."
