Overall a truly great and unique experience!! We are animal people so seeing the turtles and the pets on site made us very happy. Only suggestion would be to have travel guide/policys printed out in rooms and/or posted on website as we were often confused on that!

6/10 Good

Let’s start with the highlights. The staff on ground were superb, friendly, patient, welcoming, knowledgeable, and very helpful. Solidified feeling safe there. The check in process was seamless. I received a message prior to landing with the process super easy. The pictures are pretty good depictions of the sight. The location is great if you have a rental car but it’s away from the main routes. However, the big concerns were the hidden fees, I was not a fan of them. There was a $75 fee that was cash only. Also there were signs in the room for charging extra for towels and using the air conditioner during the day.

Wonderful spot! What an amazing place to relax away from the hustle and crowds you find at around the northeast. Close to Arikok and the hidden gems among the islands beaches.

A Great Spot!

This is a great spot if you like a thoughful, fun space. My experience was fantastic. Everyone is so friendly it almost feels like staying with a friend. The location is great for seeing the island (rent a car). The space itself was very groovy and had an awesome island vibe. The outdoor kitchen and hang out space really make you feel like you are in the space.

Good choice if you are looking for a more authentic stay away from the busy hotel zone. Will need a car rental as it’s in a residential area. Facility is basic, charming and quiet.

2/10 Poor

The room was way smaller then the pictures show its hot their and they don’t want you to turn on the ac until after 7pm and turn off by 9am or else they will charge you a 10$ a day fee. Don’t book here! I was bitten up by bed bugs they claim I got bit by laying on the beach and at no time did I lay on the beach. No I got bitten up while laying in their bed!

Loved Our Stay at Mammaloes B&B! This place is full of charm and warmth. Our room was cozy and comfortable, and we loved having a little patio to enjoy breakfast. The whole property feels peaceful and full of character, with thoughtful details everywhere. The hosts were kind and gave great tips for exploring the area. We honestly didn’t want to leave and would stay here again in a heartbeat!

A very unique experience. It met my expectations. Owner was very accommodating. Need a car, but then everything is very close. Nice pool, nice private outside areas as well as common areas. Extremely affordable. Keep in mind , I stayed in the Gypsy wagon Queenie for 2 weeks, it’s small but it has what you need. They also have an outdoor kitchen area where we occasionally cooked our own breakfast. Owner gave us a dozen eggs . I look forward to going back again

This was a great place, located in the real aruba, and not the artificial tourist areas. No traffic on the roads and the noisiest neighbors are the birds in the wild.

We LOVED our stay at Mammaloes! It felt authentic and was simply delightful. We loved the location near the donkey sanctuary (one of my favorite spots) and Willeke was so helpful and considerate, helping us quickly secure a car (we had forgotten) and super attentive to anything we asked for. Already ready to go back :)

We stayed one week in one of the wagons, and enjoyed it very much. Our wagon was intimate, but very unique. It is a truly beautiful and cozy place, something out of the ordinary. As long as you understand that this is not your mainstream resort, you’ll have a good time. The staff is very friendly and helpful and the pool is super. The breakfast was great, and we used the outdoor kitchen a few times. It’s a bit rugged, but nice. It is very useful to have a car to get around.
