The location was the only good thing for our stay. The facility is old and has only been updated in the furnishings. I could urinate a stronger flow than their shower and it took ages to regulate the heat of the water to a suitable temp. Very hard to converse with the staff who were of foreign nationalities to Australia.

We had a fantastic stay at Aruba Beach Resort during our visit to Broadbeach. The location truly can’t be beaten — just a 1-minute walk and you're right in the heart of all the shops, cafes, and the beautiful beach. It made exploring the area so easy and enjoyable. While the resort is a little older, it’s well-maintained and has everything you need for a comfortable getaway. Our room was incredibly spacious, with a separate kitchenette that came in very handy, and a large walk-in wardrobe/storage area that really added to the sense of space. We also appreciated the lounge and TV area, which made it feel more like a home away from home. Just a heads-up: there’s no lift/elevator, so if you have mobility concerns, it’s a good idea to request a ground-floor unit when booking. Overall, Aruba Beach Resort is a great value, perfectly located, and a lovely base for a Broadbeach escape. We would definitely stay here again!
