Great place

AMBR is a great place. I took my then girlfriend there for a 5 night, 6 day stay in Aug. of 2009 and proposed to her on the beach at Passions (their restaurant). The rooms are clean and comfortable for the most part. I thought the couch in our suite could have been more comfy, but we didn't spend a lot of time there anyway. We were usually sleeping or out doing things around the island. Also, there is no tub in the bathroom, only a shower. It was nice enough, but didn't have a door on it and was kind of small, so the floor usually ended up puddled by the end of shower time. The wi-fi internet didn't really work, but they have several desktop computers you can use. It's not like you should be spending a lot of time on the computer anyway! Some people will say that walking across the road to Eagle beach is a big deal, but it's really not. It's a small two-lane road. There's considerable traffic, it's not a back road, but it wasn't hard or dangerous to cross and road noise didn't bother us in our room nor on the beach. The beach is pristine, nice palapas to lounge under which is a must because it gets hot quickly in the Aruban sun. We also enjoyed the beach bar. Overall, I would definitely go back. It provides a boutique hotel experience and is set on one of the nicest beaches you'll ever find.

Amsterdam Manor Jetblue & Amigo Car Rental

Great place, great location, good vibe - had L-4 at the end near the road--ground floor. Felt like your own little apt w back terrace. Easy to the pool, easy to park right out on the street and quickly get to this unit. Beach, awesome. Usually had to get a palapa toward the back--no big deal at all. Staff, excellent. Pretty clean place. Dont forget sunblock from home its $20 for a little bottle in the conv. shop there! Ouch. I guess you get burned either way on that deal, lol. Used Amigo car rental. Went ok, Ford Edge, beat as usual with most Aruba car rentals but no issues. Jetblue out of Boston---easy quick ride---coming home 1 hour delay, than an hour and a half in the plane due to a maint issue? Thats life I guess. All in all--reall good deal, good place - good trip!

Aruba is nice and Amsterdam Manor is not bad for the price. However, you have to travel a little to have better and more economical choices for dining. But do not let that deter you, the bus system is good and the rental cars are very reasonable. Also, the crime rate was nil. My wife and I walked to places late night without a worry.

It's located across from amazing Eagle beach, and tends to be less windy than Palm beach.

Hotel always runs high occupancies, so you will have to book early. I had to !

For a laid back experience and great value.
