Garden Delight Two-bedroom condo - E125-2

*****

Perfect location for family stay

This was our first time in Aruba, and we made memories to last a lifetime! We had looked at all the high rise resorts before coming, but they didn't match well for our family of five (two adults, two teenagers and elementary age). We wanted more space so looked into VRBO and found Oceania/Prestige condos. We loved having extra space for us to spread out not only inside but the very large patio that feels private but also gives views of the beautiful surroundings and the sunsets!! We also utilized the kitchen for breakfast and easy lunches to maximize our time at the beach/pool. The beach access is so close, and we loved the use of beach chairs at the condo and the palapas to relax in the shade by the most gorgeous beach. We loved being at Eagle Beach. We rented a car which gave us access to all the other beaches on the island that we explored but Eagle Beach is by far the prettiest. The condo had everything we needed. We enjoyed dinners out every night (Zeerovers, Lola Taqueria, Pure Ocean, Passions by the Sea and West Deck were some of our favorites). We also went snorkeling with a private boat tour which we would highly recommend over the large party boats. We saw two sea turtles, octopus and many more beautiful fish. It was a highlight! The condo location is easily accessible to the Super Foods grocery and there were coffee shops close by that we also visited. Also, the Prestige employees are so kind and welcoming and ensured we had everything we needed during our stay. - (Jul 2023 - VRBO)

The condo has plenty of space for the family. The issue we had was the private hot tub would not get hot, just lukewarm. Great walking distance to a beautiful beach! The pools at the condo are very nice! - (May 2023 - Airbnb)

Absolutely wonderful

Property was just as described. Photos actually didn't do it justice. It was even better in person. Hot tub had low pressure. Staff contributed this to clogged lines from sand, but other than that, it was excellent. The iron and ironing board were terrible, but out of the 4 adults on the trip, I was the only one bothered by this! Lol - (Aug 2022 - VRBO)

Beautiful condo on Eagle Beach

This was our second trip to Aruba. The first time we stayed in a high rise hotel on Palm Beach which was nice but the room was crowded for 4 of us and the beach and pools were always packed and noisy. We decided to get a 2 BR condo which gave us space to sleep, hang out and cook when we wanted to. - (Jul 2022 - VRBO)

Great place to stay

I had trouble finding reviews for this unit so I'm hoping to help others with an update on this unit (E-125-2). I booked direct with Prestige and they were wonderful to work with, and communicated well all along- prior to booking, prior to the trip, at check-in, etc. They answered all of my questions, and made sure we had everything we needed. Kenneth, the maintenance guy was awesome and helped us figure out the jacuzzi and was always around in case we needed anything else (we didn't). The unit itself was spacious, clean and well-equipped with lots of towels, beach chairs, floaties, a cooler and a stock of supplies as well as everything you really need in the kitchen. The only complaint we have about the unit itself are the pillows and beds were not super comfortable. Other than that, it was perfect. Great water pressure in the showers. The studio unit next door was not occupied while we were there, but they did come to clean it one day and we could tell it's not very well sound proofed from the 2-bedroom portion, but only the living room/kitchen areas would be affected because the bedrooms are not on that wall. Very nice location within the complex- ground floor was very convenient for accessing the pools (plenty of chairs, shade, and never crowded), and the end unit was really nice! The walk "across the street" to the beach was nothing to think twice about, as there are very few cars and they all stop for you to cross. The walk from the unit to the beach is about 2 minutes- tops! We think it was even a shorter walk than it was from our hotel room at the Hilton to the beach there. The beach right in front of Oceania is beautiful!!! Several palapas available to anyone, and we found one each time we went, but there is also a activities hut right there where chairs and umbrellas can be rented if necessary. Jet skiing and other activities are available right there as well. It would have been convenient to have a market/restaurant/bar on the property, but there are several restaurants and shops within walking distance, just not at all like on Palm Beach. Everything is much more spread out here. There is a walking/biking path right in front that was well used, especially at night. If you're looking for a quieter, secure, well-maintained property, clean and spacious unit, then this is a good choice! - (Jun 2022 - Prestige)

Aruba awesome

Unit is great - very clean, modern and well equipped. Easy walk to Eagle Beach and multiple pools to pick from for an occasional alternative. Kids loved the jacuzzi. Dad loved the grill :). - (Apr 2022 - VRBO)

Beautiful condo in great location

Bottom line-we loved it and would go again! Pros: Nice condo with comfy furniture. Loved the large patio and hot tub. Proximity to beach was fantastic! Pools were great too :) Crazy fast wifi (in the main living area only). Frigid A/C in the living room. Note: No shampoo or conditioner provided... make sure you bring your own! Cons: Wifi doesn't work in the second bedroom. Too much noise from tenants above-showers at 1:07 AM and 2:12 AM woke us up on different nights because it sounded like rushing water followed by persistent dripping in the main bedroom. No leak-just noisy. Weak AC in main bedroom during afternoons. - (Mar 2022 - VRBO)

Staying in Oceania condominiums in Aruba

Check-in - quick, no issues 
Staying - no issues, great apartment, has much more than you need for your stay. Beach chairs, towels, kitchen staff, etc. No interactions with maintenance people, which is a good news. I only saw security and people taking care of common grounds. Everybody was super friendly. My only suggestion is to put shampoo and shower gel in bathrooms. It is not very expensive, but it required us to make a trip to a supermarket. 
Beach - absolutely perfect. Getting there is matter of crossing a small street. 
Check out - no issues. 
Overall - very pleased with the stay. Ground apartments give you direct access to the beach and a backyard, while upper apartments give you a better view. Your choice. Plenty of restaurants within walking distance. We had a car and wanted to drive somewhere for a dinner, but when we did a research all best restaurants in Aruba were close by. Our favorite was Elements. Expensive, but you are on vacation. - (Oct 2020 - Prestige)

Great location, perfect for family vacation

This was a perfect condo for our family of four. We were there for a week in August, a perfect time of year to visit Aruba as the weather was phenomenal but it was not at all crowded. Overall this was a great stay and we would come back to Oceania and E125, but if you are like me you appreciate specific details about the unit... so here goes! We enjoyed having the ground level unit with the patio, and used the grill a few times. I enjoyed having my coffee every morning on the patio; and we ate dinner several times out there. Although there are stools at the counter, there is no other table inside the unit, so the only place so sit to eat was outside... but there is nothing wrong with enjoying your meals outside with that beautiful view! There are two sliding doors onto the patio, one from the family room, and the other from the kids bedroom (the one with two beds). The master bedroom is in the front and it was comfortable, although in the morning you could here people or maybe cleaning crew as they congregated near the elevator. Also, although the ceiling fan functioned just fine the light wouldn't turn on. There was plenty of closet space and two full bathrooms; the washer was functional but the dryer doesn't seem to work very well. I had to put the towels through three dry cycles (on high) and even bathing suits took two cycles to dry. We rent condos because we like to cook, and the kitchen was missing some basic items (mixing bowls, a sheet pan, a full set of a measuring spoons) but we were able to make do. The Wi-fi was good, the three tv's worked, and overall we found the whole unit spacious enough and comfortable. Walk out the patio and into one of the pools in the complex; or walk out the front door into the other pools. Walk past the pool, through the gate (you are given the access code for the gate upon arrival), and across the street to Eagle Beach. Eagle Beach is a beautiful white sand beach that was not too crowded. If you get there early enough you get a palapa; otherwise there is a guy renting umbrellas a short distance away (cash only). We did get beach towels, beach chairs, and a rolling cooler in our unit. Eagle Beach is a quieter area/ beach. But even so, on several nights we enjoyed walking up Eagle Beach for cocktails and dinner. Check in AND check out were both super easy. I highly recommend this location and this unit. - (Aug 2019 - VRBO)

Just Perfect

Prestige put together a perfect vacation for us, down to stocking our fridge and pantry with all the items on our grocery list! And Sharon completed our shopping list with a smile even though I had a lot of items I kept forgetting. The property was very well maintained and our specific condo was clean and comfortably furnished. Sharon shared some awesome restaurants with us and we just had a spectacular time! - (Jun 2019 - Prestige)

Beautiful condo

We really enjoyed our stay - there was enough space for 4 of us comfortably and we could walk everywhere- Eagle beach is the BEST Beach on the island!! Also the pools and fitness rooms were kept immaculate. Will def return in the future. The owners/managers are very nice and professional and unit was very clean! Thanks again! - (May 2019 - VRBO)
