Fabulous location at Eagle Beach
This condo was perfect for our family’s first visit to Aruba. The pool was not crowded and we were able to find chairs regardless of when we went down. If you want chairs in the shade, claim them early in the morning. The beach is right across the road and was wide, beautiful and not crowded at all. Again if you want a space under an umbrella, or tucked amongst the trees, you need to go early. Swimming was great with Sandy bottom and little surf.
Condo was thoughtfully equipped - kitchen was outfitted particularly well and beach chairs, towels, coolers and other supplies were provided. We cooked on the gas grill and ate outside at cooler times of the day.
There are several restaurants, a gelataria, a convenience store, and a large grocery store in walking distance. It was a $10 cab ride to the Palm Beach area or Orangstaad for additional dining options and nightlife. After seeing the Palm Beach area we were happy we had chosen Eagle Beach - the beach is wider and much quieter. Same goes for the option to stay at this condo at Oceania Resorts - it was quiet with a mix of residents and a smaller number of short term renters. Other resorts that we saw were packed with American guests, crowded on beaches and on pool decks.
The management was great. A representative accepted and put away groceries we ordered in advance of our arrival. We were met outside the condo and shown the premises and the unit.
I would highly recommend staying in this unit or others at this resort.
