Amsterdam Manor Beach Resort

  • Good value
  • Kitchenettes
  • Family-run
  • Eagle Beach
  • Courtyard pool

Orange roofs and stepped gables that look lifted from an Amsterdam canal, set just across the road from the white sand of Eagle Beach.

From the air you spot it at once: a cluster of orange roofs and gabled facades in bright colours, a small piece of the Netherlands facing the Caribbean. Aruba is part of the Kingdom of the Netherlands, and Amsterdam Manor leans into that history with a wink.

The hotel is run by a family, and the pool sits in an inner courtyard rather than on the beach. Many rooms come with a kitchen, and there is a supermarket nearby, which makes a real difference on an island where eating out adds up fast.

Picolo’s verdict

Why we chose Amsterdam Manor Beach Resort

Amsterdam Manor is our value pick in Aruba. You get Eagle Beach a few steps away and the freedom to cook breakfast or dinner yourself, which works just as well for couples as it does for families.

There is a road between the hotel and the sand, and the facilities are modest: no large spa and only a short list of places to eat on site. If you want a full-service resort, pay more elsewhere.

What you get

  • Kitchen in many rooms
  • Small pool in the courtyard
  • Eagle Beach across the road
  • Family-run hotel
  • Supermarket close by
