Old Windmill

The hotel just completed a major renovation, so everything was beautiful and brand new. The staff were all fabulous, very welcoming, attentive and happy to help ensure everyone in our family of five (all adults) had a wonderful time. The specialty restaurants were fabulous and it was nice having everything on site. We did venture out to check out the nearby areas at night and it was nice to have everything walking distance. We felt incredibly safe. The only reason I gave the amenities a 4 star is because they could use some additional shade. If you don’t go down to the beach at 6am to claim your spot, you will not be able to get shade for the day and may have trouble getting a chair at all. I did appreciate the fact the staff never made you feel obligated to tip, but were incredibly grateful if you did. Overall, it was a wonderful stay for our first trip to Aruba and we would definitely do it again!
