Our Guest Reviews

My sister and I traveled to Aruba for a nice, quiet and relaxing vacation. We choose to stay at small, local owned cottages for our yearly Sister Trip. Aruba Sunset Beach Studios was just what we were looking for. The location was fantastic, the people were friendly and helpful and we had everything we needed. If you're looking for resort type or party place lodging, this would not be for you. But if you want peace and quiet, a beautiful ocean, a nice pool and wonderful owners and staff, you won't go wrong with Aruba Sunset Beach Studios.

Our stay was fabulous - to say the least. Sitting at out outside table looking at the ocean and the sunsets made us not want to leave. The location is great. I caught a large bonefish right out front our second day. I also cannot say enough about you and the entire staff, very friendly and helpful. And to top it off, you did something to the Wifi and we could watch our dogs!

We have to say Aruba is an awesome place. The weather was great, the people were awesome.
The staff at Sunset Beach are wonderful - very friendly and helpful and they ensure your stay is relaxing and enjoyable.
Large Garden Studio 1 is our absolute favorite - nice size room, lots of natural light and good storage for your cloths and luggage and we loved the front deck - a nice place to relax.
Again, thank you for making our stay a perfect one! We will be back some day :)

Dear Friends at Sunset Beach:
After our second visit this year I can assure you we’ll be back. Had a wonderful time again. Enjoyed spending time with Jackie and Eve and JP. Loved Ocean 1. I think that’s going to be our home base in the future. Say HI to everyone from us and we already miss you.

The apartments are located at Palm Beach area, only 1 street separates the beach from the apartments. It is a wonderful area, white sand beaches, sometimes you can see Flamingos there and a variety of water sports can be practiced at Palm Beach. The owner of the apartment and the other staff are wonderful!!!! Very helpful, give you all information you need, rooms are very clean. I appreciate their customer service a lot! Buses leave in front of the apartment, the location is silent, perfect for relaxation, absolutely worth staying there! Kitchen is equipped with all necessary items, towels and toilet articles are included as well, very clean swimming pool, sunbeds in front of the pool. There wasn't anything to complain about! Best stay I've ever had, thank you so much!!!

First time to Aruba for us. What a great place to stay! Just a few minutes by car to the high rise areas for lots of shopping (Super Food became our best friend as we ate in for breakfast and one other meal) and restaurants and just a few minutes to the North was our favorite beach, Arashi. Jackie was very helpful with providing recommendations of places to visit (or not if they weren't worth it), restaurants, and beaches. Renting beach chairs for the week is highly recommended. They loaned us a cooler for the week, too. Eve reserved our Sunset Cruise while we were out and about. Friendly staff, beautiful place! Wish there was a ceiling fan on the patio of Ocean 1 because there was little air flow from the breeze but the scenery is stunning. Highly recommend!

Beste Sunset Team. Wij zijn weer goed thuis aangekomen. Nog een keer van harte bedankt voor de uitstekend mooie service en een vakantie die wij zeker in ons hele leven niet zullen vergeten. Groetjes aan het Team en misschien tot de volgende keer!

My husband and I went to Aruba for the first time this summer and stayed for 10 days in the Large Garden Studio at the Sunset Beach Studios. It was perfect for us. The studio has everything you need to live like a local in Aruba. Each morning we'd make coffee and sit on the deck to enjoy the view of the beach across the street. Each evening we'd sit in the same place, sipping a Balashi, watching the sunset.

As we'd go off on adventures throughout our stay, the studio was the perfect place to return to--whether to grab a quick bite to eat or take a dip in the pool. Everyone who works at Sunset Beach Studios is incredibly friendly and helpful. The property is adorable and well maintained. It's quiet and private, the perfect setting to relax and unwind.

If you're looking for a place swarming with tourists, bustling with overpriced (and usually not very good) restaurants and focused on the party, this is not the place for you. While we were happy to visit the Palm Beach/Eagle Beach area, we were so glad to be able to return to our studio. It's true: Sunset Beach Studios is not a luxury, five-star accommodation with perks like room service and a bar in the swimming pool. But it's charm and impeccable service and fun, local feel more than made up for it.

One thing we highly recommend: Rent a car. The area is a little more residential and a car will allow you to not only do everyday things, like go to the grocery store and hit the laundry mat, but also it enables you to explore more of the island. We discovered so many different beaches and local takeaway spots because we had the car. And, if you do want to hit the town, you can hop on a bus that will take you to Palm Beach/Eagle Beach or Oranjestead.

Zimmer ausreichend gro? mit K?chentresen und (kleinem, aber ausreichendem) Badezimmer. Sehr sauber, die Ladies putzen und fegen st?ndig und helfen auch gern bei der W?sche. Der Innenhof ist karibisch, voller Pflanzen/Blumen mit jeweils eigener Terasse, mit Gemeinschafts- Pool und Whirlpool. ?ber die Strasse (hinten eigentlich nicht zu h?ren) gelangt man zum Schiffs-Wrack, toller Schnorchelspot. Auch baden ist m?glich, keine echter Strand aber zu diesem ist es nicht weit. Tolle Str?nde in Fahrrad N?he. Zu Fuss oder mit dem Fahrrad ist der Kitespot erreichbar (Sandstrand). Die Besitzer und Angestellten sind sehr freundlich, helfen auch mit Tipps zu Surfspots und Ausfl?gen. Ausserdem stehen K?hlboxen, Schnorchelequipment, usw. zur Verf?gung. Toller Sonnenuntergang am Meer direkt vor der T?r. W?rde jederzeit wieder kommen! Nur in diese Unterkunft (wir haben die gesamte Insel bereist). Thanks very much Eve and J.P.!

We came to Aruba (couple + 1 baby) and wanted to stay in a quiet place, close to the beach. Sunset Beach Studios was the perfect place for us: the best beaches where either a few minutes walk or a couple of minutes driving away from us. It was quiet and peaceful. We could come back for a lunch nap with our baby, and at night we bbq and went to the pool, while he was asleep.

Besides that the staff was friendly and helpful, and the rooms were convenient. If we would come back to Aruba we will definitely go back to Sunset Beach Studios.

I went with my 2 children on a special family holiday (ages 10 and 19) to celebrate my 51st Birthday with my kids and have a fun time together. The location turned out to be the best idea: out of the very busy commercial area, allowing us to savor the peacefulness, the sunrises and sunsets, walking across the street to the ocean and enjoy the charming and cozy place..
The staff was very helpful and with a positive disposition and the right suggestions..
We were in a garden studio. We enjoyed meeting our neighbors and we had everything we needed.. Minutes from the more busy area, walking distance to the windsurfing and kite surfing, but with the tranquility I had hoped for..
we were there from July 23rd to the 30th..
The studio was well equipped, very clean. We enjoyed the pool, the jacuzzi and the vegetation of the garden.. Which also gives it a special plus.. Hopefully next time we will have the view to the ocean too..

My family and I always enjoy staying at Sunset every time we go to Aruba! It is so relaxing, friendly, casual, clean, conveniently located, and we like having a kitchenette. At least once during our stay we get together with everyone else in the common garden area by the pool and have a cookout of fish and sate (of course with peanut sauce and kroepoek) plus whatever other pot luck dishes people bring. Playing in the pool and relaxing with a cold Balashi in the hot tub are favorites, as well as a short ride up to the best snorkeling place on the island - Catalina Cove.
I cannot image staying anywhere else when in Aruba!
