We my girlfriend and I just spent 10 great days there 4/16 to 4/26. This was our third time there and every time you go there you learn something new with places to go and see. Starting with the staff, Tamara the Ass't Manager is in a class all by herself, got any problem it is solved period. Henri who works the desk is there to help you and he will tell you that's his job and he does it well. Eda,Elton my 5 Star man and the rest at IKE'S BISTRO ARE ALL GREAT WORKERS. The food selection is a plenty and if you want to order off the menu you can do that to. The CHOP HOUSE has 5 Stars all over it, great food and great people. There is always a wind at the beach but it cools you off, the beach is clean and if you want to order something you put this flag out and the waitress comes running ans she will take and deliver your order. Most all places in Aruba charge a 15% surcharge but that is to be expected and this money goes to all the employees.Like I said earlier this was our third year in a row but the people we meet you hear seven years in a row until we met a lady who has been going there for seventeen years. I can't say enough about Manchebo Bay but if you want 5 Star service and food you won't be cheated,remember you get what you pay for here.
Wonderful quiet relaxing place to enjoy the beach. The staff is really helpful and friendly, but not pushy. Every time we go back the place looks even nicer. Very different than when they renovated a few years ago.
Best location on Eagle beach. Plenty of space for hotel guests, sun shelters for guests. The restaurants are all excellent, and priced well. They serve food and drinks on the beach so you don't have to walk. Nice clean modern rooms, with balconies. Outstanding staff all around, it's small and it feels very private without being snobbish at all, very casual. Free WiFi, and it reaches the beach for you workaholics. Located next to the casino and Mall so you can walk across the street to get whatever you need. I'm going back next year.
Went to Omakase for dinner. Loved it! Atmosphere is amazing. Prepared in front of your eyes! Perfect date night ;)
We've stayed here once and are going back this summer. Friendly, helpful staff. Great restaurants. Amazing beach.
This is the best place to stay in all of Aruba because of its beach. You cannot find a nicer beach, nicer staff and better amenities. We are never disappointed when we go back.
We stayed at Manchebo Beach Resort recently for our honeymoon and were blown away. From check-in the customer service and hospitality was fantastic. Every employee there was cheerful and went above and beyond. The beach was world class and way less crowded then Palm Beach. The restaurants at Manchebo were fantastic. We did not take advantage of the All Inclusive package but we wish we had. Every time we left the resort to venture out we questioned why we had left. The Spa was great and reasonably priced and the Yoga was excellent. We took part in multiple classes from all of the instructors and the quality and setting was bar none. We have been to numerous locations around the Caribbean and we couldn't say enough good things about Aruba and Manchebo. We are already planning our return visit for our Anniversary! Oh and best Mojitos on the Island!
Probably one of the best chop, steak restaurants on Aruba. I had the almond crusted grouper and it was delicious. Excelent service; the wine recomendation was perfect. $$$
Manchebo Bay is wonderful if you're looking for high-rise Deluxe go elsewhere but if you're looking for a wonderful service great food comfortable rooms and nice people everywhere this place can't be beat
Excelent hotel. Great location with an amazyng beach and less crowded than eagle beach, that is just around the corner. The restaurant is nice and completely affordable. Breakfast are heaven! And staff are super nice! Really recomend this hotel!
My wife and I went here for our honeymoon and it was awesone!!! The staff was on top of everything. They made us feel so comfortable and important. All the restaurants on premise made it hard for us to leave because they were so good. The attention to detail with every meal was mind blowing!!!! We plan on coming back here every year. Anyone looking for a romantic get away NEEDS to stay here.
My wife and I recently had the pleasure of staying at Manchebo Beach Resort with our [almost] 3-year-old son for a week — and WOW, were we impressed! The beach is beyond words — but what distinguished this hotel in our experience was the unbelievable staff. The wonderful Alejandra (beach bar), Josuel (beach), Ana María and Glinda (dining), Magali (bar), Ángel (pool and ground maintenance), and Sandra at reception really made our stay extraordinary. Everybody was very helpful and accommodating, especially with our son. One small example: we needed to go to the grocery to buy him food and Sandra offered to have someone from the resort take us in their car and bring us back! While we agree with some reviews that the furniture at the beach could be updated, overall the pristine and magnificent beach, the excellent cuisine, and the awesome staff are 5 stars for sure and we cannot wait to become return guests (and get those cute t-shirts that let everyone know you’re a repeat guest :-))! Thank you, Manchebo team!
You will not regret this choice. I was anxious because I always worry about scams and am definitely the type to have my expectations be too high and then end up disappointed. I really do not think that will happen with this resort or Aruba in any way. It is hard to put into words but the "One Happy Island" is a very accurate way to put it. From the greeting off the plane, the assistance at the shops, the taxi drivers, and locals walking around. People are just genuinely happy and glad you came!
I've traveled to Italy, Switzerland, Amsterdam, and never received the kindness that I received in Aruba. The staff at Manchebo were very helpful in getting an agenda planned for our trip, great about quick service. Thoughtful in many ways - i wanted a coffee with Baileys (at 4 p.m.) and although they were not making coffee at the bar they called the front desk and had some delivered. I bought goggles and a snorkel and without asking they were cutting it out of the package for me cause they knew I needed it for the beach that day. They messed up on setting up our transportation but we didn't even realize it because of how quick they were at fixing it. It was so seamless. They really know how to help you have a vacation and not worry about anything.
You will not regret it if you go! I joked with my wife and said on our second to last day - what is one thing i haven't done since we've been here - she knew right away it was "critique/criticize the service or food" I cannot remember the last time I could say that as I have really high standards when it comes to customer service and for fun (and to a fault) I am always looking for a way to make things better/friendlier/more efficient. Outside of the comfort of the beach chairs there is nothing they could improve on. (I had to have one thing by the time it was over. :) )
Book now!
Dinner here was exquisite! On the beach front! Amazing staff and scrumptious seafood and beef tips!!
Georgeous beach! Wonderful staff. Fabulous food. Very relaxing atmosphere!
Unpretentious 1960s-era, 2-story motel (all updated) that doesn't occupy every square foot of land. Very relaxing with lots of long site lines. Friendly staff.
Quiet beaches, wonderful restaurants, and very relaxing!!! Clean rooms and very nice staff! Would recommend over an all inclusive! I wish the balcony off our room was bigger and the gift shop and extra amenities had more variety.
It was amazing and everything I had hoped for. The rooms were very nice and staff was amazing. My husband and I have been there twice and are planning to go back in August for our 30 wedding Anniversary. The spa was so nice and I highly recommend a couple message. I loved how your not stacked on top of each other on the beach and you had privacy. You won't be disappointed if you stay here.
Excellent Boutique Hotel/resort. Equipement on the beach could be updated. Nice restaurant and fine service. Employees helpful and friendly.
It's a nice place, but with a steep price and some outdated amenities. The beach is lovely but the chairs are very uncomfortable. Beach service is nice but forgetful. Rooms are comfortable but the doors whistled with the wind 24/7 during our stay. Restaurants were very good.
We were here for lunch on Feb 8,2017 . We all enjoyed the friendly staff & food was Great. We knew about this resort as we had time share in Aruba close by years ago. Next time we go to Aruba this is going to be where we Stay. If u like a quiet resort then this is definetly the place for you.
The Beach is the Best of all the Low Rises in the Area.
It's a restaurant that does not live up to its fancy decorations. Located inside Manchebo Spa & Resort, this restaurant is probably one of your best options compared to other places in the plaza where the hotel is located.
Wonderful beach.
Nice rooms with perfect working AC.
Very friendly staff and good food.
Great place.
One of the best place I made beach holidays.
The only thing I did not like were the drinks on the bar.
This is a small hotel on the best beach in Aruba. They had welcome drinks in hand and set aside a beautiful room. There are plenty of huts for midday sun shelter, yoga if you like, restaurants on site and nearby, and it was quiet and relaxing. I have stayed in the high rise hotels on Palm Beach and own a time share at Costa Linda and will still fit this into my schedule during my next stay. If you prefer the nightlife and a lot of activity you may prefer the high rise hotels. Personally I found this to be the most relaxing place I have ever stayed.
