We had a fantastic stay at Aruba Beach Resort during our visit to Broadbeach. The location truly can’t be beaten — just a 1-minute walk and you're right in the heart of all the shops, cafes, and the beautiful beach. It made exploring the area so easy and enjoyable. While the resort is a little older, it’s well-maintained and has everything you need for a comfortable getaway. Our room was incredibly spacious, with a separate kitchenette that came in very handy, and a large walk-in wardrobe/storage area that really added to the sense of space. We also appreciated the lounge and TV area, which made it feel more like a home away from home. Just a heads-up: there’s no lift/elevator, so if you have mobility concerns, it’s a good idea to request a ground-floor unit when booking. Overall, Aruba Beach Resort is a great value, perfectly located, and a lovely base for a Broadbeach escape. We would definitely stay here again!

Overall the area was great. But no shampoo or conditioner supplied. No soap holder in the shower was weird had to keep putting the soap on the floor. Only 2 little long Life milks supplied for a 2 night stay so couldn't even have coffee.

I enjoyed my stay, I felt safe, had the very top apartment (4 floors up), two heavy suitcases to get up/down the stairs was the challenge. I was very happy to have a washing machine & dryer in the studio. Close to the Tram, everything was convenient. Happy to book with Aruba again and request second floor studio next time, thank you
