Quote: We came back to the Manchebo for our second visit to Aruba, and we were even lucky enough to get the same room (at our request) as last year, too. The rooms have been updated; there is new furniture and the bedspreads are of a darker color as well. The flat screen TV looks nice, but we had a lot of problem getting the remote to work properly and the reception was fuzzy. These things don’t bother me too much, as I certainly don’t fly all the way to Aruba to watch television!

After a second year at this resort I feel 100% confident in saying that it is the best beach resort in Aruba. The beach is never crowded, the palapas are both plentiful and well spread-out. There is a lot of privacy on this beach. We rarely saw any children, the beach is almost exclusively couples (which it helps that the soon to be adults-only Bucuti resort is next door).

The pool at the Manchebo is small, but no one comes here for the pool. This resort is all about relaxing on the beach. The hotel staff are all wonderful, friendly, helpful and feel like family. I heard there were plans to replace the green ground covering with something a little easier to walk on in the coming year.
