Amir the property owner was amazing!!! Anything you could possibly need, he could arrange, including transfers from and to the airport. The apartment was spacious, comfortable and clean. The bed and pillows were super comfortable and the bathroom very modern. Renting a car is recommended as the property is a good distance from the beach and about 0.6 miles from the closest Arubus stop.

Living the Dream
My wife and I stayed at South Beach Residence for a week. We wanted a quiet place to stay that was away from the touristy areas, which is exactly what we got staying here. The hotel is close to Ling & Son's grocery store, maybe a 5 minute walk. You'll have to get used to not having sidewalks if you want to walk (we did multiple times without any issue) but it is an adjustment if you're used to more formal sidewalks and crosswalks. I told my wife that they're used to it, we're not. I don't believe it is out of the ordinary or unexpected for the local people to see pedestrians along the side of the road. When we arrived, we found a portion of the hotel to be under construction by accidentally going into the wrong room marked 2. One of the buildings is under construction but the rest of the property has been recently renovated. I made up a story of the hotel that I'm not sure whether or not it is true, but it holds up in my mind. I believe that Amir recently spent his life savings to purchase this property which I believe may have been an apartment complex. It was recently renamed South Beach Residences as most of the taxi drivers weren't familiar with that name, but once we showed them where it was, they were able to find it easily. If my story about Amir spending his life savings to own and renovate a hotel, he is living the dream. It is a lot work but if anyone can do it, it is Amir. I give him all my respect for following his dream and having a vision.

Close to everything but far enough away from the hussle and bussle of the touristy areas. Amir , the host, was extremely friendly and helpful. It is fairly new and still needing some simple things(a microwave which is on order, would have been convenient, but we made do with what we had with no issues. The unit was extremely clean and we will definitely be back to stay. The best part was a street dog named Bobby that has been somewhat adopted by the residence and is the sweetest boy around. Made my day seeing him everyday!

This is a great property. It’s approximately a 5 minute drive to Eagle Beach and is very centrally located. The suites are very clean and comfortable and the pool area well maintained. There is a dog on site, Bobby, and he’s very sweet. Bring some treats if you stay. The environment is very relaxed and the owner responds to all texts promptly. This will definitely be a property I will rent from again!

Fantastic studio apartment! Pool is very nice and with the courtyard, you meet tons of guests. Amir is a fabulous host who quickly responded to our questions. Ling and Sons grocery is only a couple blocks away. You will want to either rent a car or use taxis to go around the island. Location is really nice and a number of restaurants are within walking distance. You are right off the beach so you save $$ but have easy access with only a 15-20 minute walk. Room was clean and newly remodeled.

There is no view of the beach and it is in an area that is mixed industrial residential BUT it is on ½ a KM from a major grocery store 1 KM from the beach and 3 ½ KM from downtown Oranjestad. If you are willing to walk a bit, use buses (Stop is at beach. Learn the schedule) and taxis (Always only a few minutes away. Only a bit expensive) you can save hundreds of $ by avoiding a car rental. New owner, Amir and newly renovated with new everything including towels. Amir is always there to help as needed. Great host! But bring your shampoo, etc. (Or buy, prices are not that bad at the grocery store). Best thing I can say is next time we go back we will try to book the same place!
