Me gustó todo. Altamente recomendado. La atención es increíble te dan reposeras, heladera, snorkel y toallas para ir a la playa. Tom y su familia siempre atento a lo que nesecitas....volvere
Os donos Ton e Angélica são excelentes. Muito gentis e hospitaleiros. A proposta do BANANAS (poucos quartos, muito verde, mais familiar) é excelente. Apartamento todo equipado. Voltaremos.
Me encantó todo !!! La isla es bella, segura, limpia. Pensamos volver, el depto tiene todo lo que se necesita para la playa, es limpio, la pileta hermosa. Pasamos una vacaciones hermosas.
Todo fue hermoso.
La comodidad del departamento, su equipamiento, el jardín con piscina espectacular y la excelente atención de sus dueños Algelique y Tom. Muy atentos con sus sugerencias. Había sillas para playa, toallones en cantidad, y helederita.
Deberia contar con tomacorrientes en el baño (no había) y alguno más en habitación. Tampoco había esponja y detergente para limpiar utensillos de cocina. Compramos y dejamos para próximos huéspedes. El resto muy bien.
El lugar es amplio y cómodo la piscina es bien grande y está todo equipado. Los anfitriones son un encanto y están preocupados de que todo funcione, ofrecen toallas para la piscina y playa y artículos playeros
Todo excelente sería un plus si hubiera esponja y lava loza ya que el primer día no pudimos lavarla porque debimos ir a comprar esos implementos. Lo demás todo bien ya que está muy equipado con todo lo necesario
Me encantó , mucho más lindo de lo que esperaba , toda su decoración te hace sentir en un paraíso además de Aruba
Nada todo fue perfecto , su ubicación a metros de tres trappi y boca Catalina , y siempre todo impecable
Tutto. Luogo stupendo, appartamento fornito di tutto. Ho apprezzato moltissimo la dotazione di asciugamani e tutto l’occorrente per la spiaggia, ci ha semplificato molto il soggiorno.
Niente, era tutto perfetto e curato.
Nos gustó la tranquilidad de lugar, la amabilidad de Tom y su familia. Muy bonita decoración del lugar, y la piscina maravillosa, tanto que, a veces no daban ganas de salir.
Très bel endroit, l’appartement est grand et dispose de tout le nécessaire pour passer un bon séjour. Des fauteuils de plage et matériel de plongée sont mis à disposition gratuitement ainsi que des serviettes de plage et de piscine. La piscine est très agréable et accessible à tout moment sans restriction d’heures. L’appartement dispose d’une terrasse privative et ombragée sur laquelle nous avons aimé passer du temps. Si vous aimez les animaux, vous croiserez la bas des tortues de terre, des poissons, un perroquet, des oiseaux et des lézards et iguanes. Les hôtes étaient vraiment très agréables et arrangeants, ils ont tout fait pour que l’on passe le meilleur des séjours encore merci à vous !
Rien
Lugar tranquilo , cerca de las playas mas linda para hacer snorkel!!! Los dueños siempre atentos, no había ruidos y el dpto tenía todo lo necesario para pasar una li das vacaciones ! Sin duda volveremos!!!!!!
Nada!
Ogni cosa era perfetta. Alloggio tranquillo, dotato di ogni comfort. Tutto ciò che può servirvi è a disposizione. Un paradiso di relax. Più che consigliato.
Excelente ubicación!!
Such a beautiful house and really kind hosters , we had a great time in Bananas
Davvero una fantastica oasi di relax ad Aruba, vicinissima a spiagge fantastiche. Il giardino è meraviglioso, le camere comodissime e vi è disponibilità di asciugamani e sedie per il mare. I proprietari sono gentili e simpatici. Pulizia ottima e ricorrente. Se dovessi tornare ad Aruba tornerei certamente qui!
Nel nostro caso l’acqua della doccia non era ben calda, solo tiepida (ma siamo ad Aruba). Ho sentito l’assenza di una doccia esterna, ma era in costruzione.
Tudo
I enjoyed everything. The Host and His Family. The Pool. The Area was quiet yet close to everything
Vertskapet er utrolig hyggelige og hjelpsomme. Nydelig plass, rolig og gode muligheter for skygge. Herlig basseng og boblebad. Romslig kjøleskap og frys. Kjekke strandstoler og badetilbehør.
Det hadde vært nice med komfyr.
Det här är en pärla som överträffar alla förväntningar. Det finns en vacker papegoja som vänligt hälsar på gästerna och en knippe skölpaddor som man kan interagera med. Hunden och fiskarna är mer reserverade om än vänliga. Köker är väldigt väl utrustat och sängarna sköna. Ton och hans familj är de finaste människor jag stött på under mina resor. Så mycket kärlek och omtanke om gäster och djur.
Det ligger ganska ensligt, man behöver ha bil för att ta sig till mataffär, restauranger och andra stränder än den närmaste.
El complejo es hermoso, con excelente ubicación y accesibilidad. Muy buena atención de los anfitriones.
El baño carece de enchufes prácticos y no hay enchufes disponibles para la carga de dispositivos en la habitación. Recibimos el apartamento en condiciones óptimas, aunque la limpieza fue elemental durante la estadía, sólo tender la cama, reposición de toallas y retiro de residuos cada 2 ó 3 días.
Todo. Lindo, cómodo, limpio, completo.
Nada.
We were extremely satisfied with our stay. One of the biggest advantages is the excellent value for money, the great location, and the cleanliness of the accommodation. The property was comfortable, well-equipped, and had everything we needed for a pleasant stay. A particularly thoughtful touch was the availability of beach towels, beach chairs, and snorkeling equipment, which made our stay even more enjoyable and convenient. We would especially like to highlight the owners, who were incredibly kind, helpful, and accommodating throughout our stay. They were always available and happy to assist us with anything we needed. We highly recommend this accommodation and would be delighted to return in the future.
Buen instalado. Una paz total. A pasitos de tres trapi Beach para ver las tortugas.
La calidez en la atención!!! Tanto Angelique como Ton, son dos extraordinarias personas que nos hicieron sentir como en casa en todo momento!!! Siempre dispuestos a ayudarnos en todo lo que hemos necesitado!!! La ubicación excepcional del departamento en una zona muy cercana a la playa de Arashi, lejos del "ruido" del centro. El apartamento completamente amoblado y con todo lo necesario para no preocuparse por nada!!!! Muy recomendable!!! Volvería a elegirlos!!!!
Nada, todo perfecto!!!!
Where do I start? My husband and I wanted to relax and connect with our two adult sons. This as perfect. The pool area was an oasis down to the detail including the resident parrot and turtles. It would have been enough just to kick back at the property. We did, however want to adventure. And this property was a perfect location. A short walk to Tres Trapi Beach. Easy parking. And easy to navigate to all the sights. The hosts were superb. Kind, responsive…really above and beyond. This experience was easily our top experience..and we have had many. Thanks so much folks. We appreciate you.
El departamento tiene una vista hermosa y relajante al parque, que cuenta con pileta, jacuzzi y muchas plantas, además se ilumina precioso de noche. Los anfitriones son sumamente amables y te proveen de todo: sillas de playa, conservadora, máscaras de snorkel y toallas tanto para la playa como para la pileta.
Het appartement was heel schoon. Het is allemaal heel goed bijgehouden. Je kon handdoeken pakken voor zwembad en strand. Zwembad was heerlijk en schoon. De locatie is veel mooier dan op de foto’s. Je bent echt op vakantie hier. Er waren zelfs strandstoelen die je kon gebruiken. Het personeel is zooo vriendelijk wij voelden ons echt thuis. Ik had me geen betere locatie kunnen wensen. Ik kan iedereen Bananas aanraden. Ik ga niet snel naar een zelfde plekken vakantie maar als ik het zou doen zou het zeker hier zijn!!
Niets!
Hola! No es el hecho de gustar , es el hecho de estar comodo. Y eso se superó ampliamente. Y si tengo tengo qué definir a Bananas ? Es un hermoso Eden dentro de un paraiso que es Aruba!!! Nunca faltó nada, todo lo ofrecido estaba! Muchas gracias Tom y familia!!!!
Un poquito menos de viento, pero eso se lograba en el hermoso patio de Bananas!
El complejo es hermoso!! Especialmente toda la parte exterior que es bellísima y muy cuidada, y se disfruta sobremanera! Los departamentos tienen todo lo necesario para que la estadía sea impecable, sumado al aseo diario! Y los detalles en relación a las toallas para playa/pileta, reposeras, caretas de snorkel, patas de rana hacen que el servicio sea súper completo! Logrando un ambiente de naturaleza, bienestar y comodidad durante toda la estadía! La ubicación es perfecta, el barrio es precioso! Y esto sumado a la excelente atención de Ton y Angelique, pendientes en todo momento...gracias por unas vacaciones inolvidables!
Todo perfecto!
La hospitalidad de Tom y su familia.
Shower: low water flow cleaning of room
Great location. Had all that we would ever need. Nice place to gather by the pool. Great showers.
Nothing
El entorno natural, calidad de las instalaciones y calidez de los anfitriones. Hermoso todo
Un poco alejado para las compras, si o si necesitas auto q igual lo necesitas para conocer todas las playa, es cuestión de organizarse
La tranquilidad!!
Das Bananas ist eine wunderbare, ruhige, grüne Oase im, für uns besten Teil von Aruba. Die Gastgeber sind sehr nett und wir empfehlen die Unterkunft zu 100% weiter.
Los anfitriones nos recibieron súper bien, siempre dispuestos a ayudarnos en lo que necesitábamos. El alojamiento es hermoso, tiene una piscina muy bien cuidada, y un ambiente ideal para descansar. La zona es super tranquila y muy cerca de playas lindas. Los departamentos tienen todo lo necesario para una excelente y cómoda estadía.
Nada
La pileta, el jardín, los animales, y la simpatía y cordialidad de los dueños
Una cucaracha en el baño
Ubicación, instalaciones, amabilidad de los dueños y que al ser pocas habitaciones nunca hay ruido y se puede descansar muy bien.
There seam in the middle of the bed that was a little uncomfortable.
Hermosas las instalaciones comunes. El área de pileta principal. Servicio de toallas para la misma y para la playa. Recomiendo alquilar auto para trasladar con comodidad reposeras y heladera ya q en muchas playas no hay donde comprar.
En el área del comedor donde le tocó dormir a la tercera persona faltaba aire acondicionado fundamental en estos climas. La limpieza no es diaria.
Es muy cómodo, amplio y Tom lo mantiene súper limpio! Los dueños están atentos y cuenta con toallas y sillas de playa más los utensilios necesarios para una estadía excelente.
Lo único para mejorar sería la cama, ya que eran dos individuales unidas y es más cómodo una cama de dos plazas para una pareja.
Great location for snorkelers! Quick walk to the best snorkeling beaches. Owners are really welcoming and friendly and on hand all the time, so no difficulty if anything is needed. Apartment was comfortable, clean and very secluded with all the amenities and quiet we wanted.
Poolside chairs in the shade was limited which was not a huge problem but meant we didn’t enjoy the pool as much as we could have done. It would be good if the chairs at apartment had an option of an umbrella or canopy/palapa to allow better use in the extreme heat.
Las instalaciones de la pileta, la tranquilidad del lugar, la permanente atención de sus dueños, las comodidades disponibles
It is a great location and very nice pool and trees
Everything was great
De tuin is fantastisch , de eigenaren zijn gezellig en super behulpzaam bij alles . Het appartement is ruim, schoon en van alle gemakken voorzien . Strandhanddoeken, zwembadhanddoeken elke dag schoon , strandstoelen om te lenen , echt heerlijk !
Het enige nadeel was : dat onze vakantie een keer afgelopen was 😓
Host superdisponibile,il nostro volo era serale e ci ha fatto restare fino a tardi senza chiedere soldi. La struttura e' pulitissima e la cucina ben dotata di tutto .Vicino anche a piedi alle più belle spiagge dell'isola.ciao Ton e Angelique torneremo..saluti a Luise..il carinissimo pappagallo!!
Assolutamente niente
Everything
Nothing
Les propriétaires sont très accueillants ! Le ménage était fait tout les jours . Les appartements sont spacieux et le lit très confortable. L’emplacement est parfait Je recommande à 100%
El complejo es excelente!, es más bello de lo que se aprecia en fotos!. Está completo y te provee de todo lo que necesitas , ya sea en las instalaciones de afuera como dentro del departamento!. Sus dueños siempre dispuestos y muy amables! Recomendadisimo!
No tengo nada que objetar.
Estadia maravilhosa! A casa é linda, bem equipada e nos fez sentir em casa. Agradecemos muito ao anfitrião que nos recebeu muito bem. Ambiente agradável, arborizado e tranquilo. Superou nossas expectativas.
Tudo perfeito!
Wir haben zwei Wochen unserer Hochzeitsreise hier verbracht. Das Apartment liegt in einem etwas ruhigeren Gebiet, ist aber öffentlich sowie mit Auto gut zu erreichen und nicht weit weg von vielen beliebten Stränden/Schnorchelspots. Die Anlage ist sehr schön gestaltet, schöner, sauberer Garten mit Pool, große Zimmer und sehr gut ausgestatte Küche (wir sind oft in selbstversorger Apartments im Urlaub und waren hier wirklich sehr positiv über die Austattung überrascht). Die Gastgeber sind wahnsinnig nett und helfen gerne bei jeder Kleinigkeit weiter.
Das einzige, was für uns ein kleiner Nachteil war, da wir kein Auto mieten wollten, ist, dass der nächste größere Supermarkt nicht zu Fuß erreichbar ist, was aber für uns auch durch das gute Bussystem trotzdem gut machbar war. Vielleicht wäre es gut, wenn in jedem Apartment Laternen gegen Mücken zur Verfügung gestellt werden, da diese in der Dämmerung durch den natürlichen Garten aktiv sind - das ist aber Jammern auf hohem Niveau.
Amabilidad y limpieza
Solo el horno no funcionó
Nos encantó TODO!!!! es un sitio maravilloso Ton y Angeline son unos fantásticos anfitriones preocupados en todo momento de nosotros. Está cerca de la playa Tres Trapi, donde puedes disfrutar de hermosos atardeceres. En el apartamento no falta de nada y el lugar está lleno de numerosos detalles que te hacen la estancia inolvidable. Sin duda volveremos.
Todo fue genial.
Amazing apartment! Loved the common spaces. Everything was clean, spacious, and beautifully maintained. The swimming pools were a highlight, perfect for relaxing at any time of the day. The people who rented the apartment were also fantastic. They were friendly, responsive, and made everything very easy. Highly recommended!
Tom and his wife. The apartment was very nice
Nothing. Just suggested to have better mattresses
Honestly Bananas is an oasis, a magical slice of heaven on earth. Love the lush gardens, the quiet and enchanting setting and waking up to a view of the pool and enjoying the chirping of birds and the resident parrot, Louise.
Nothing comes to mind.
Amazing grounds. Owners/stuff are super helpful and accomodating. Everything is very clean- rooms, swimming pools, sitting areas etc..
Bathroom could use a little touch, nothing serious..
Location is perfect 2 minutes walk swimming pool is incredible the room got everything you need for the stay they provide you with towels for the pool and the beach chairs for the beach not mention is oasis palm trees all kind of tropical flowers highly recommended.
I can’t mention one thing maybe the television but who is going to aruba to watch TV
Our stay at the Bananas Apartments was exceptional! The hosts were friendly, welcoming and very attentative. The setting with the pools, hot tub and multiple seating areas to relax was a tropical oasis with lush vegetation and plants. Our apartment was clean and had everything we needed to make for a comfortable, peaceful stay. The location was ideal and within walking distance of the ocean where there was a great path for walking every morning. This place is a hidden gem!
There was nothing we didn't like.
The grounds were beautiful and well kept. The hosts were very friendly and made you feel like home. Our unit was clean and well stocked. Plenty of towels and chairs for use at the beach
we had no complaints
unique with many animals, birds, & plants in a natural setting. low key homey atmosphere and individual privacy when desired
nothing
The property was gorgeous and our hosts went above and beyond to help us jump our rental car when the battery died.
The hosts were super friendly, the room was spacious and well equiped, there’s 2 pools, free towels and chairs for the beach, 10/10
Everything was great really
N/A
Owners are very nice and friendly they take great care of the property. We used it as a place to work for a few days internet is really stable and both of us are able to take work calls throughout the work day.
Great area. Very friendly and helpful owners. Super cute and cozy place, great yard. Close to the one of Aruba's best beaches - Arashi.
Everything was great.
At this property it was quiet and the owners were very friendly
Nice location near Boca Catalina. Owners are kind and helpful. The grounds are beautiful.
Everything was Perfect. It is a small property, beautiful plants, landscaping shows their commitment to excellence. We were in and out of the pool several times each day. Perfect combination of privacy and amenities. Very relaxed atmosphere within walking distance to the best beaches. We’ll be returning again and again! Bananas Apartments will not disappoint. Thanks to our hosts.
Nothing. It was perfect
The apartments are large and well equipped the owners live on site and are very friendly and helpful it's a short walk to the nearest beach (15 mins) there are 3 restaurants close by but are quite expensive. The outside area at the apartments is lovely with a brilliant pool lots of beds and chairs with shade if you need it, they have free towels to use around the pool or to take to the beach, the apartments are cleaned daily to a high standard.
You could do with a car to get around to the local supermarkets and other restaurants (We didn't have one which was our choice) but it would make life easier, there is a bus service at the end of the road which is good and you can get around the island with a flat fare of 4.5 AWG for each individual trip. My only reason for not giving a rating of 10 is there is no hot water supply to the bathroom or kitchen taps for some reason the shower is electric and very good.
Pool, birds, garden, hosts.
Needed a tray in kitchen to carry food to outside table. Also needed something for washing dishes (sponge, detergent). Some instructions in English for stove and microwave.
We liked the location, quiet but still close to everything. We liked the lights and landscaping around the pool. The hosts were friendly and the pool area was beautiful with lots of places to sit.
No hot water in the bathroom or kitchen sinks and the jacuzzi was not heated. Not having an oven or blender in the kitchen.
Quiet and lovely, intimate grounds with few people and no music being blasted at the pool area. It was down to earth and perfect for older folks, like my 86 year old mom, who enjoyed hanging out at the pool and cooking meals in our kitchen. This is NOT a party place.
Louisa & the other many birds & animals, aloe Vera, gardens, hosts, location, air conditioning, TV with CNN etc, pool/towels, meeting other guests. And the many water activities & hiking options. Closeness of grocery stores. Easy to walk to the beach.
We needed to each take turns sleeping solo on the pullout couch bed-mattress — because after 2-3 nights on it, each of us experienced some back discomfort. The mattress was not sturdy enough to comfortably sleep adults in the 180 lb -ish weight range. .
