Pauline's Apartments Aruba, Noord

The vegetation around the condo is beautiful. It is a lower cost apartment with an Aruban home feel. The pool is tiny and did not look that clean so we did not use it. The location was close enough to walk to town but there is a dangerous stretch without lights where cars drive too fast so renting a car is imperative. The apartment was cleaned well daily but the sheets need to be upgraded. There is still no full length mirror which was a complaint from 2018. There were plumbing issues in our unit as the water leaked into the rest of the bathroom from the shower. Our refrigerator was very noisy, sounded like the compressor was going so we did not really use it as we would in an updated apartment. We booked our second half of our vacation in a more upgraded apartment with in suite laundry and by comparison it was a much better option at not much greater cost.

This apartment was very comfortable as it had a lot of space so my family wasn’t constantly on top of each other. There is a sitting area and a full kitchen with table to eat at so we were able to have breakfast every morning before we headed out. Be aware that this apartment is not on the beach BUT it is a short walk and to be honest, it’s not that bad. I would say 3/4 of a mile at most. Our 9 year old had no problem at all. Stephan communicated with us constantly both before and during our stay and was very flexible with us since we didn’t have a set time of arrival. The apparently has a iron gate in addition to an alarm you can set so that you can feel your personal items are safe (yes there is a safe too). I recommend this for anyone who wants to have a budget friendly trip to the island, but also stay in a clean comfortable and safe place. They even helped schedule a taxi both to the apartment and back to the airport! Such an easy stress free trip! Thank you so much Stephan Patrick, and Alex you guys made our first visit to the island wonderful!

We stayed 2 nights at Pauline's. The service was excellent: Stephan and Kenneth made sure that we are ready for our vacation. The apartments are clean and comfort (Big rooms) and in a quiet good condition. The apartments located about 1 mile from the hotels and restaurants area of Noord and could be access easily.

Great place! We wanted to explore different parts of the island, so this place was perfect for my family of 4. Spacious, clean and in close proximity to palm beach, eagle beach, restaurants and large supermarket. I had some general ideas, so I didn’t need much help, but Stephan is a sweet host who was definitely available if I would have needed.

Stephan was great! Very thorough in all the details! Would definitely stay here again!

Well its a nice place, very quiet area, not too far from the beach. Not a lot of privacy in the morn. I still suggest a car. I recommend avoiding the pickup from the airport service.

Dirty. Several hairs in the bathroom and bed! Terrible stains on the toilet seat and sheets. Ants all over the kitchen. The walls were dirty. The locks were rusty and therefore the keys did not work very smooth. I will absolutely never ever stay there again. It was only one night and our last night in Aruba that we had to spend the nite there so we decided to deal with it.

We stayed in the 2 bed studio for a week. It was simple but perfect. Definitely perfect place for people on a budget. Plenty of storage for clothes and luggage. They provided 2 beach towels and 2 beach chairs. They also had a deal with Mambo beach where you could use 2 beach loungers for free. We also received a discount card to use at select restaurant for 15% off your bill. Even though palm beach area was close we never walked. There is plenty of free parking in palm beach and eagle beach area. Only area you will need to pay for parking is downtown. Taxi ride to palm beach area is $7. The only con I have, I wish they had a full length mirror. They had one mirror in the bathroom but you could only see waist up.
