One of the best hotel front beach. It’s older so not as modern, but it’s very clean, comfortable and well managed. I believe most rooms have an ocean view which is amazing. It’s family oriented but quiet. Really enjoyed our stay.
Best beach in Aruba! Staff are all so friendly and accommodating. The poolside restaurant has terrific lunch and breakfast (we haven't tried the dinner menu). The grounds and facility are kept spotless. Beach is kept clean and well groomed and plenty of chairs and palapas. We look forward to returning annually.
Costa Linda Beach Resort exceeded every expectation during our wonderful 8-night stay in Aruba. We just checked out today and are already looking forward to returning. The location simply cannot be beat — right on beautiful Eagle Beach, recently recognized as the second-best beach in the world. The sand is powder-soft, the water is crystal clear, and the sunsets are absolutely unforgettable. What truly sets Costa Linda apart, however, is the people. Every single staff member we encountered was incredibly friendly, welcoming, and eager to help in any way possible. We were amazed to learn that staff members who interact with guests are expected to speak five languages — and their professionalism and hospitality really showed throughout our stay. The resort itself was spotless, relaxing, and perfectly maintained. Whether enjoying the beach, pool, restaurants, or simply walking the grounds, everything reflected pride and attention to detail. Thank you, Costa Linda, for helping create such wonderful memories for Gina and me. Aruba is truly “One Happy Island,” and Costa Linda is a huge part of why.
Security: Vanel was so kind to safely find us a cab back to our hotel. Thank you so much for making sure we made it home safely as we didn’t have cash he found us a taxi that took credit cards. Thank you for your kindness!!!!
I have been traveling here since 1989 minus a couple of years. We have time in Casa Del Mar and stayed at Playa Linda but Costa Linda is the Cadillac of the Sun resorts.
