This is my family's 4th time spending a week at Sunset Beach Studios and we had another fabulous time! Can't say enough about Eve, JP and staff - very accommodating. Loved the clean rooms, refreshing pool, cooking/dining out in the pool/patio area, feeding flowers to our "pet" iguanas, Al and Iggy. Nice remodeling done to the main house to make more individually rented studios - we stayed in the Large Ocean 1(liked the extra living room area) and Garden 1 studio, which were perfect for us. The snorkeling about a mile north of the studios (where you see all the booze cruise boats anchored) is the best on the island. The walk to the natural pool from the horse farm is something we always look forward to. Aruba is an island where you just rent a car and go - can stop and eat/drink anywhere without worry of getting sick. Ling & Sons is a well-stocked grocery store. Recommend the Sate platter at the Paddock down by the docks in Oranjestad. Also the restaurant at the end of the Raddisson Hotel's pier is great at sunset and loved the band! The new restaurant Flying Fishbone in Savaneta is well worth the drive - excellent food and who wouldn't want to end dinner with their toes in the ocean?!! Barrie W
