Our Guest Reviews

Een ontzettende geweldige ervaring! Heerlijke rust en toch dicht bij alle 'hotspots'. Lekker genoten van het zwembad, de jacuzzi en ons 'private' snorkelstukje door alleen maar even de weg over te steken :-) Bedankt voor alle hulp, ook namens de rest van de familie!

Waren voor het eerst op Aruba en al bij de reserveringen kreeg ik al een vermoeden wat ik kon verwachten van het verblijf in Sunset Beach Studios. De ongevraagde maar zeer gewardeerde adviezen vooraf beloofden wat. En de verwachtingen kwamen uit, de gastvrijheid waarmee we werden ontvangen, de studios, de tuin de omgeving en bovenal de prijs hebben mede ertoe bijgedragen dat we een onvergetelijke vakantie hebben gehad. Eef, Bianca, Aida, JP en de anderen nog hartelijk bedankt.

Thanks so much!! We have enjoyed our stay. We wished we could stay more days but duty calls and it's back to reality on Monday. We still have lots to see in Aruba and my friend and I will come back, hopefully next year. Best Regards and Best Wishes.

Net terug uit Aruba. Ons verblijf van 2 weken bij Sunset Beach Studio's was in een woord geweldig. De locatie van Sunset is top, rustig gelegen en toch alles direct in de buurt zoals de mooiste stranden, supermarkt en uitgaansgelegenheden. Dus wel de voordelen maar niet de nadelen. De studio's zijn schoon en goed uitgerust en het personeel is erg vriendelijk en behulpzaam als je vragen hebt of tips wil over het eiland. Iedereen van Sunset bedankt voor de heerlijke 2 weken!!!!

We enjoyed our stay so much,that even before our vacation was over, we both were planing another stay. I was especially thrilled at the beauty of the garden, the way the grounds are designed, gives the feeling of being in a private luxury villa (even when all the studios are full). We loved the generosity, and attention put into every detail designed to make you fully enjoy yourself. There are big fluffy beach towels, amazing outdoor grills,as well as VERY clean rooms,that have every kitchen utensil I could have ever needed. There is even a large collection of books that are there for guests to read while relaxing by the pool. Even as we were checking out and preparing to return home, we were given magazines to read on the plane. We will certainly be back!!!

Dear Eve and JP, Thank you for making our 10 year anniversary so special. The champagne was awesome and the flowers and card was beautiful. Our 2 weeks at Sunset were just amazing, beautiful sunsets, amazing people, beautiful beaches. Another wonderful year of amazing memories we have made... Again Thank You both and also your staff who took very good care of us also. Everyone of you we love and think of you all just like family and miss you already. We will see you again next year... With lots of love.

On our 3rd vacation to Aruba, we decided to do something different and stayed at Sunset Beach Resort and have absolutely no regrets! JP and Eve have something very special here! Such a clean, friendly and romantic setting, the sunsets are great and staff and other guests are exceptional! You want to rent a vehicle to explore the island and the wonderful restaurants on the island. They also have a book of the island they made that gives very helpful advise of everything on the island to do. The beach in front of the studios is a little rocky but you just have to jump in the car for a couple miles to beautiful sandy beaches to the left or right of the studios. If you are looking peace and quiet, friendly guests and staff we highly recommend staying here...we will be back as well as recommending to all our friends!

We just returned from 8 nights at Sunset Beach Studios. It's just a delight. Well maintained, friendly and so very relaxing. It's like a small community with friendly neighbors. The palapa on the north end of the garden is a great place to gather for breakfast or the necessary happy hour discussion about what folks are doing for dinner. We'll be back next year.

We spent the week of February 16-23 here in Garden Studio 2 and couldn't have been happier with the location, cleanliness, and charm of Sunset Studios! The owners and staff all love their jobs and it shows. Far enough away from the crazy crowds but close to beautiful beaches! Stores and restaurants close by. We would recommend Sunset Beach studios to anyone and everyone! Thank You for a wonderful time, and can't wait to be back!

It was our first trip to Aruba and this property was the perfect location for us. We stayed in OCEAN 2 which faced the beach. Here we enjoyed the gorgeous sunsets every night and dinners outside on the porch in the warmth of the Caribbean. Our room was relaxing, comfortable and clean. Everything we needed was available: hot plates, toaster, coffee maker, silverware, dishes etc. It was very peaceful and quiet. You hear the ocean waves and the gentle breezes, birdsong and footprints in the sand. Beach chairs and towels were provided, a barbeque is on site and a pool. Lovely little lizards scurry about and aloe grows freely among gardens with flowering plants and palm trees. Everyone was very friendly and helpful. We loved this location, because it was away from the crowded resorts. You can really enjoy the island without all the hustle and bustle of a big hotel. Palm Beach is not so far down the road, so you have it as an option to explore for nightlife or dinner. With a car everything seems very close. I really can't say enough about the Sunset Beach Studios...there are so many wonderful things to talk about. The list just goes on and on....If your going to Aruba, we highly recommend staying here. You will not be disappointed. It is romantic, relaxing and the hosts are fabulous. The island is incredible! We will definitely be returning to Aruba and Sunset Beach Studios. Thank you Eva, JP and all of the staff...it was fabulous!!!

This was our second stay. Eve, JP and staff made us feel at home. Amazing views of the beach. Easy access to beach, Island amenities, and services. Private, peaceful, and well kept. The staff are helpful, provide useful information, and go out of their way to be available. Very affordable, even in high season. Close proximity to water sports. We are booked for next year!

The owners of this hotel have done a good job of making the rooms comfortable. If you're looking for a quiet place just off the beach, free of tourist shops, as well as to be able to make your own coffee in the morning and then walk outside your door to be greeted by a great tropical view, then this place is perfect. We loved the place. Our last look every evening was the beautiful sunset. We enjoyed our stay and we will be back !!!! No more major hotels when traveling to Aruba, Sunset Beach Studios has everything we need.

We had our first visit at the studios for 10 days December 6th-16th. We got in after the office had closed but they were kind enough to put some Amstel Brights, limes, Douwe Egbert's coffee and bagels in the unit for us. We watched the sun set across from our terrace, the first of many more. This is a great location for those who are not dependent on a resort to have a good time. This was our 4th visit to Aruba, and we were ready for something a little different and this was just what we needed. I have stayed at the Holiday Inn, the Marriott Ocean Club and the Phoenix at Divi, and I don't think we will ever do the high rise vacation again. The landscaping is quaint and very pretty, some iguanas scutter around, a couple of kitties make appearances, the maids, Ida and Flores, were accommodating and friendly. The office staff, Monique and Bianca, also very nice and accommodating. This has more of a European flavor to the surroundings and to the other guests, which is very nice. Why travel all that way just to spend all your time around a bunch of noisy Americans? This was more like a true vacation and we loved the Ukranians from Chicago who were next door. Very sweet couple with whom we shared a meal in the palapa and many drinks on the terraces. Don't hesitate to stay here, Boca Catalina is just up the road and we had many nice days snorkeling there. Arashi was a nice beach but the constant tour buses make it a little less nice. Rent a car and go down to Mangel Halto if you want to find some good snorkeling without a lot of people around. We will be back, we really enjoyed it tremendously. Go for the ocean view studios and rent a car, you won't regret it.

My wife and I have been vacationg on Aruba for the last twenty or so years. We have stayed at all the best reorts with all the creature comforts. Last year we decided to take a gamble and try Aruba Sunset Studios. It was the best choice we have made since our first visit. Staff was great, studios were refreshing and quaint, enjoyed the intimate atmosphere. We are now on counting down with 49 days until our next visit. Can't wait!!!

My girlfriend and I spent a week at Sunset Beach Studios and we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. The rooms were clean, spacious, and comfortable. The entire staff was friendly and the configuration of the studios-- with the pool/jacuzzi centrally located-- allowed us to meet many fellow vacationers. If it gives you any indication of the quality of the studios, some of the folks we met had been returning for more than ten years! The studios are a little less than the "high rise" area of Aruba. While there is a very useful bus that passes along the main road in front of the studios, I recommend renting a car unless you are the sort that really enjoys taking walks (car rentals are quite inexpensive anyway). The most attractive feature of the studios, however, is undoubtedly the location. We visited at least eight beaches while in Aruba, and the beach closest to the studios was our favorite beyond any doubt. The water was clear, the sand was pristine, the wildlife was playful, and the walk to it all was only ten minutes. We've made several trips in the past few years-- Hawaii, Costa Rica, Jamaica-- but we found ourselves saying that Aruba was our favorite of them all. I don't think we would be saying that with such enthusiasm had we not stayed at Sunset Beach Studios. JP and Eve (the owners) have put together something amazing and I encourage to you to take the trip to meet them!

This is our 12th year at Sunset and each year is more memorable than the previous one. In 2000 we discovered our Caribbean get away and fell in love with everything about the property. JP and Eef along with Monique and Bianca provide a gracious introduction to the gentle laid back life at Sunset. Aida and Flores are the attentive staff that really keep the place running smoothly and immaculate. We look forward each year to our visit, knowing that the days will be restful and rewarding to our lives.

SUNSET Een plekje onder de zon, waar ons genieten opnieuw begon. Vanuit Suriname gekomen, en Aruba als stop, was inderdaad geen flop. Prachtige (ruige) stranden met altijd iets om handen. Mooie vissen en schelpen te zien, is dit het Bon Bini-gevoel misschien? Gastvrijheid en delen van fijne verhalen met echte intensies en genieten te vertalen.

This was our 3rd time staying at the Sunset Beach Studios. We have always had wonderful service and the property is well cared for and rooms are very clean and comfortable. Eve and JP are very personable and friendly and go out of their way to accommodate their guests. The staff that work at this property are also very kind and willing to help in any way to make sure the guests are well cared for and taken care of. We will continue to return to the Sunset Beach Studios when we stay in Aruba.

My week's stay at Sunset Studios is one of the most enjoyable I experienced even with the many years of my globe trotting, often solo. I am still bewildered at the extreme kindness of all the staff, very informed Bianca, the cleanliness of the studios and the entire compound, thanks Aida and Flores. Friendly and knowledgeable Monique who even took me to San Nicolas to experience one of the many festivals offered in Aruba. I was impressed with the people and culture of Aruba and hope to make future visits and will certainly stay at Sunset Studios as it provides you with all your needs.

We had a really great stay at Sunset Beach Studios, the hospitality we encountered from the staff, their helpful tips & the cleanliness of our studio made us want to stay and never leave !! The peace and quiet of Sunset Beach, with the ocean just in front of your doorstep and swimming pool at the patio, made our ten day stay a stay in blissful paradise, it truly did !! Sipping a cocktail underneath the big banana-leaf parasol with other guests/friends or in total privacy on our own terrace, it all was possible..magnificent !! Dear Sunset Beach owners & staff, thanks big time for making it all possible, never a high-rise hotel vacation for me again !! Greetz from the Netherlands, Arjan Hilbolling.
