The property was excellent. Pools were spectacular. The service couldn’t be better. Wasn’t crazy about having to walk across the street to the beach which was very crowded and chairs were jammed together

Beautiful!

Beautiful hotel, staff was amazing and the rooms were spacious and had everything you could think of. The only recommendation would be better coffee pods in the rooms. They had anawesome coffee cafe at the hotel so that helped.

Brand new resort still under construction, but the open areas were impeccable. Our room was beautiful with a great view of ocean over Eagle Beach. Staff was very friendly and always professional. The amenities were great and will only get better as they add 2 more restaurants, casino, and golf course.

This is a great property but still under construction and some service issues to work through. Friendly staff but seemed unsure of what they should be doing. Some construction noise in the middle of the night as well as random fire alarms in the middle of the night. Beautiful resort and great location. Hot tubs by the pools weren’t working and the hot water in the room would get really hot randomly…hot water issues.

Truly the best hotel I’ve stayed on any island! Aruba knows how to do it when it comes to this hotel. Although it is 4-5 months old it is extremely beautiful. The staff are ALL super friendly and catering to our needs. The walking distance to the beach with their services on the beach is exquisite. Cleanliness is 10/10. The hot tub on the balcony with the view of the ocean is 10/10 experience. Their spa is gorgeous! Their buffet is 10/10. Just wow. I will be staying here for my next visit!

We really enjoyed our stay at JOIA Aruba Iberostar. The resort is brand new and is still experiencing some construction. With this, there was some construction noise that was a bit annoying. The resort was only about 2/3 occupancy, so chairs and cabanas were in abundance. There were only two open restaurants and the service was OK. The location for us was the key. We had access to their beachfront on gorgeous Eagle Beach. The staff associated with providing chairs on the beach were amazing. There were a few restaurants within walking distance that were very good. We took cab rides into the high-rise hotel zone a couple of times and cab fair was only $10 per trip. Our room was very comfortable and completely updated, a bonus with staying in a brand new resort. Bed was very comfortable. I would definitely stay at this resort again.

Beach process of getting chairs is inefficient and wastes hours of guests vacation time Massage at the spa was probably the worst i have had at any resort along with the intense noise of construction but guest services was very receptive and addressed the complaint. Staff are all exceptionally pleasant, polite, and receptive to all your needs. Resort is incredibly immaculate and clean

Very nice new hotel with a lot of potential. But the there are still many problems, such as leaking sink, not flushing toilet, air conditioning stop working, etc. all can be explained and excused as the building is only a few months old. However, the management is ineffective and inept. They don’t know how to manage problems properly. Calling the front desk from the room took over 20 minutes and eventually gave up and walked to the lobby, which is quite a distance and annoyance. Complaining to anyone including the manager is a waste of time. They either don’t care or not capable. Most of the staff is very nice and welcoming with a smile, especially the umbrella guys that work on the bench. But at the end of the day you feel like better management could significantly improve your overall experience. Will try a different hotel next time. It’s unfortunate because the building and rooms are very nice.
