Mökit – Aruba

"If you like to stay in a smaller and cozier hotel than big all inclusive resorts with several hunderd rooms, then Courtyard by Marriott Aruba Resort is your place. The location at the beginning of the hotel and restaurant strip of Noord is just perfect: Peaceful, but from walking distance of shops and restaurants. Beach is also a walking distance away, and for lazy people there is also a shuttle service from hotel to beach. We enjoyed our renovated, spacious room with large bathroom very much. Our room was situated on the second floor (the hotel only has 2 floors) of the main building, where the reception is located. We also liked that our balcony was not facing the pool area, which was quite full all day long. Breakfast was very nice, lots of sortiment. In addition we would have liked some fresh vegetables (tomato, salad, cucumbers, bell pepper) to go with bread and omelettes. Also fruit selection could have been wider and the single packed fruit cubes could be served in a bowl to reduce single use packaging. Otherwise it was nice, that single use cutlery or containers were not used at breakfast. The service at the reception was very friendly, especially Sunci and Yulia were great! The breakfast staff was also very nice, but hotel restaurant dinner service seemed a bit understaffed and therefore the service was not that great, so one time was enough for us. The complimentary yoga class was nice and we also used the guest laundry room. Our stay was overall very good. "
