This unit is a first floor, walk out to the pool. It’s convenient to go back and forth throughout the day so if you have young kids, it’s great. It can be noisy depending who is at the pool and how late and people tend to go out early to reserve chairs. Also, a first floor unit doesn’t have a clear ocean view but you can walk across the pool deck for a beautiful view. The unit is stocked with all you need, beach chairs and pool floats which is great! The checkin process is a little inconvenient, once you arrive you have to drive to another location to retrieve the garage opener and keys for the gym etc. not the end of the world, but we did not know that prior to checking in. Also, they were not accommodating with an earlier check in. We come to Daytona every year and this was our first time renting at the Aruba, but this unit is run through a realty company. Every other year the places we have rented have been more than accommodating with early check in, prioritizing the cleaning of units based on the arrival of guests. This particular company had two families waiting for a few hours for their units to be ready while the other units were cleaned despite those guests not having arrived yet. Also there is no staff on site at the Aruba. If there’s a problem with your unit you have to reach out to the rental company and wait. We ended up fixing a freezer problem bc it couldn’t be addressed until the next day, not exactly how my husband wanted to spend his first day of vacation.
