EVA Resort Aruba Reviews

I visited Aruba back in July and stayed with John at EVA resort and it was great! Suite looked just liked the pictures! From the airport pickup to drop off, John was available and made sure my stay was everything I could have asked for. He recommended one of my now favorite places to eat across the street from villa and let me take a cool seashell from the resort. Area was safe to walk at night and friendly. About a 20 min drive from the city, which was perfect for me. This is the only place I’d stay in Aruba!

EVA Resort is truly an oasis! My girlfriend and I needed a quiet getaway to escape our busy, city lives and we got all of that and more at EVA! The property is near immaculate and is very much as advertised. The vibe was calm as we relaxed outside in and by the pool daily. The apartment was more than we expected, it was spacious, clean and the attention to detail was great, not to mention a very comfortable bed, It truly felt like a home away from home. Our trip to Aruba was kept low key so we didn’t opt for everything they had to offer but we did request the couples massage and it was without a doubt the best we have experienced! John was also unbelievably kind and helpful. We appreciated the time he spent chatting with us and as fellow foodies we enjoyed John’s restaurant recommendations immensely! We hope to return to EVA again for another relaxing and tranquil getaway.

The accommodations are even more than excellent! So comfortable. So well stocked. So beautiful. Loved it there. The only “negative” - a rental car is a must. However; having a car gave us the opportunity to see the entire island and explore on our own. I cannot say enough good about EVA Resort in Saveneta. 10 out of 10 for sure!

Just got back from our vacation and already thinking about our next visit. Paula was an amazing host who made us feel right at home. We booked here to celebrate my 30th and honestly, it was the best choice. I got the calm, relaxing vacation I wanted. My partner and I loved our Suite and got in the saltwater pool every day. We were walking distance from two great restaurants, Zeerover and The Flying Fishbone. Both had amazing food. We didn't rent a car but Erick was offered to us by the resort to take us wherever we needed. He was great and always arrived early. Definitely beats waiting a long time for a local cab. The resort offered a private jeep tour which we decided to do, and learned some amazing history of Aruba while exploring different parts of the island. A full day and half day tour is offered, but we opted for a half day since we had dinner reservations later. Chris, our tour guide, was amazing and had great knowledge, as he is local to the island. He showed us beautiful hidden gems in the island and provided a wonderful experience. EVA also offered a private dinner package which we took advantage of, and are so glad we did! Chef Andrew made amazing dishes, catered to our taste, which we were able to enjoy on the roof deck at sunset. John, the owner, arrived during our stay and gave us great recommendations and made us feel welcome as well! All in all, you will not regret booking your stay here!

Great experience. The place was clean and cozy. John and Thais were helpful and super welcoming. There is an amazing fish spot across the street, we ate there multiple times. Beaches nearby are beautiful. I would stay here again.

WOW! WOW! A beautiful, quiet, relaxing spot. Four very new apartments built around a pool. EVA is located in a residential area at the eastern end of the island far from the Eagle Beach and Palm Beach crowds. My wife and I spent two weeks and didn't want to leave. The owners (from South Carolina) are delightful. I can't say enough about how wonderful our stay was. We will definitely return.

A hidden gem that won't stay hidden for long! My husband and I stayed at EVA for 7 nights/6 days. It was our first trip visiting Aruba and we had such a wonderful experience! We were so happy staying at EVA that we are in the process of rebooking another trip for next year. The resort was just gorgeous and you can tell that a lot of thought and care was taken into consideration when building this little gem. It was easy to find, parking was plentiful, and the common pool area was extremely clean and tidy. The neighborhood was quiet and we didn't have any issues with noise and slept like babies. Our room was tastefully decorated, A/C was good, and it came with a fully stocked kitchen that made cooking in an easy task. We loved drinking coffee on our porch and in the pool area each morning- it was so relaxing. Each evening after coming back from the beach or our outings we would shower off in the outdoor shower and hop in the pool to chill until sunset. What made this resort our best stay was interacting with Paula and John- they are such genuine people and a pleasure to chat with. They made sure that everything was just right for us to enjoy our experience. They have all the resources to make your trip a top notch stay. We booked an amazing private full day tip with Odyssey Tours (thanks to Paula and John) to get a tour of the island and it was the best tour experience we have ever had. I cannot say enough about how awesome EVA Resort is and how much we are looking forward to returning again. EVA definitely beats staying at a big hotel or resort!

Such a wonderful spring break experience I came here for spring break and the rooms were amazing! The beds were comfortable, the kitchen had everything we needed, the air conditioning was great, the pool was one of the best places to hang out, and it was so relaxing and peaceful there. It was everything I could ask for. More importantly, our hosts were very kind and friendly, had an on point sense of humor, and made it so easy to feel at home at Eva. The tours were perfect, super exciting and adventurous, and they took us to the most beautiful spots. It gave us that chance to see everyone’s real laughs and excitement. This was one of the best experiences I have ever had and I made a multitude of new friends that I will forever keep in touch with. The trip wasn’t just about the excursions or the beaches, it was about the wonderful hosts, workers, and massage therapists, because they were all kind and made a great impact in our lives. Thank you Eva, for such an incredible experience.

When I booked my stay at the EVA Resort, I had no intention on extending my stay. And, that’s exactly what I did, extended my stay THREE times! It felt like home, the best 24-day experience I’ve had in a long time. John, Paula and Liza will make sure your stay at the Resort and your time on the Island is something you will never forget. I plan to visit Aruba many more times and EVA Resort is where I will reside each and every time!

Amazing get away location with plenty to do. Make sure you get up early so you can see all the sites!! 😉😉😉🤣🤣🤣 When you come you have access to pretty much everything you would need in walking distance and if not you are provided vehicles to be able to venture around the island. Tours are excellent also, you get to learn much of the history of the place and helps you feel more connected to the area other than just feeling like you are in a foreign country. Helps you feel more at home and of course the resort atmosphere is perfect for relaxing. Definitely will be back. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

First Time out of the U.S.A!!! When you walk-in you are greeted with a great atmosphere accompanied by stone masonry, all natural trees/plants and a saltwater pool with plenty of furniture to use as long as you’d like. The rooms are magnificently furnished with everything you need to accommodate a stay of one day or one week…..or maybe one year!! A.K.A. Move In Ready! The island offers plenty to do and see. The beaches are spectacular and the locals are very welcoming. Definitely will return!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Great! It was great! We felt very taken care of. The staff is super helpful with everything and our massages were amazing. The tour we booked through them was the highlight of the trip! I would highly recommend staying here, especially on this side of the island.

This place is the real deal. My wife and I shared a blissful honeymoon retreat to this most enchanting resort and we're already questioning why we ever left. It had all the things you'd want: a gorgeously cool and tastefully designed room; relaxing salt water pool surrounded by palms and banana leaves swaying in the breeze; or rooftop hammock drinks toasting gentle sunset views. Being away from the hubbub of the main hotels, it felt tranquil, private and personal. All of which is carefully maintained by a thoughtful and wonderfully considerate staff. They also specialize in experiences: offering luscious spa services, delectably authentic meals prepared on site by the owner John; customized Jeep adventure tours across the island, just to name a few of which we partook. Overall 10/10 would 100% recommend!

EVA was the perfect honeymoon oasis away from the busyness of Oranjestad. Jonathan has curated an impeccable property with a story and care for every detail. Our stay at EVA was memorable for many reasons, including the well designed and appointed suite, the low key and ambient atmosphere, the pool to enjoy after a day out, and the great location in Savaneta which allowed for an easy drive to anywhere on the island. My advice- have sunset drinks on the roof, schedule a massage at EVA spa and definitely book a meal with Jonathan. 10/10 would stay again!

I absolutely fell in love with this resort! The staff/management are all around great people. They are incredibly helpful and accommodating. I extended my trip 3 times lol and they always made room. Loved the pool, the rooms, and the close proximity to a small, quiet and beautiful beach. The Jeep day tour is not to be missed. I will always stay here when visiting Aruba. Thanks EVA!

My husband and I had a wonderful stay at the EVA Aruba last week. John the owner and Erik picked us up from the airport. They were on time and greeted us with big smiles making us feel so welcome. In the car we were treated like celebrities. John had a cooler and made us delicious cold cocktails. Our room was very clean and comfortable. Even had a kitchen which was nice for breakfast. There are only 4 units at this resort which makes it feel much more elegant than a big loud hotel. The pool was so convenient and quiet as well. There are 2 fun restaurants within walking distance which are Zeerovers, and The Flying Fishbone. One of the evenings we had John prepare us a private dinner at the onsite restaurant. Everything was delicious. The thing we noticed the most was how happy John was to cook for us and explain the different foods and wine pairings. He really wants to make sure his guests are happy. During our stay we had a couple questions and when we messaged him he would respond within 5 minutes! Erik drove us back to the airport and John made us sandwiches for lunch right before we left! Excellent service from EVA Aruba! Thank you for making our stay so fun!

Just got back from a wonderful adventure in Aruba with EVA. Great salt water pool, beautiful accommodations and wonderful staff! Erick and Lisa were great. John (the owner) was helpful in planning some of our days and can’t say enough about the Jeep tour. Highly recommended! Chris was the best! Quiet, off the beaten path location but arranged all our travels at a reasonable price to get to the resort areas. Even better if you have a rental car. If you’re looking for an out of the way, comfortable place but still able to do and see everything Aruba has to offer then don’t look elsewhere. They even included our transportation to and from the airport as well! Book with EVA!

EVA - modern, clean, incredible My wife and I took a spontaneous trip to Aruba based upon an airfare deal we secured. Having never been, we knew we wanted to stay away from the high and low rise areas and have a more local experience. We were so lucky to have booked EVA. The place was incredible - clean, modern, comfortable and our hosts, Paula and Jonathan, were so very welcoming and inclusive. We stayed in the Shoco apartment and what was originally seen as a one-time-only trip to Aruba will undoubtedly become a second, third, etc primarily because of our experience at EVA.
