    Phenomenal location, clean, simple, quiet, safe. I had a studio on the second floor - all the basic necessities provided and great air con. Beautiful pool area with ample seating and a shaded kitchenette bar area with BBQ and bar top seating. Enjoyed the numerous outdoor common areas to lounge in. There is ample, safe and free parking in front of building. Walking distance to Superfood (bring your own bag or can purchase one there, carts must be rented FYI). Bubali is a 5-7 minute drive to downtown area and beautiful beaches. Would highly recommend renting a car for your visit on the island (I got a very inexpensive rental through Sunset, less than $20 a day). Much more convenient and cost efficient to get to all the beaches and sights with your own vehicle. Didn’t have any interaction with staff at check in as I arrived after hours, but easily found the property and box with keys and instructions. All guests and staff I encountered thereafter were friendly and courteous. And to reiterate - best location I could ask for so close to popular beaches, bars and restaurants! Upon returning to Aruba, this will be my choice of accommodations. Thank you Bubali Apartments for an amazing experience

    To be fair, i booked this studio room for the week, studio H. This room was not meant for two people ,nor the luggage. Small beyond belief, but clean. I was able to make other arrangements and only stayed one night. They refunded my request. I believe other rooms there were probably adequate. Not this one. I dont want to rate them badly. I think its probably a very inexpensive way to stay in Aruba , and come back here to sleep.

    Our room was way to small. It was called a cozy studio, it would be good for 1 person on a very short stay. I do not wish to make this a negative rating, i did not get to see another room as they were full. They refunded me as requested. I do not have anyproblems with them. Maybe try a bigger room there next time.

    My wife & I just came back from a month long island wander and finished up our trip on Aruba. We wanted our own space to cook and relax, parking for our car and yet be close to the things we cared about. We did not want to be anywhere near the big tourist hotels and that scene, it's just not our thing. Bubali Apts was just what we were looking for. Ample parking out front, a very nice common space with a pool, shade, lounge chairs, a BBQ, a DIY bar, coffee and tea always available, beach chairs to borrow. The apartments are laid out around this common area with most of them facing the pool. There are maybe a dozon apts to fit almost any need from a large 2 bedroom unit to a small studio. We had a smaller 2 bedroom, 2 bath, upstairs apt (#7). It had a porch overlooking the pool with a table chairs and a couch. There was also a small outdoor space to sit on the other side of the apartment. Each of the bedrooms and the living space had it's own AC and TV. Kitchen was well stocked so we could cook our simple meals. The bed was comfortable, bathrooms had hot & cold water. It was simple and clean. We thought the location was great. It's in a quiet area on a small road, that is only a 10 minute walk or a short drive to a huge grocery store, pharmacy and ATM. There are a couple of smaller markets even closer. Eagle beach for evening walks and sunsets is a 10 minute drive away. We spent our days snorkeling and exploring the island. With a car it was easy to get around and roll your own adventure. The manager, Agustin and cleaning staff were great, friendly and ready to help. We would happily stay at Bubali on our next trip to Aruba.

    A good place to stay if you don't want to spend a lot. The apartment was clean, not a very comfortable bed. Good location,open parking spot. So if you're worried about vandalism be aware,but the whole time we stayed there nothing happened. Friendly staff!

    Stayed here for 8 months and I would highly recommend it! It's very comfortable, all of the rooms have A/C, it's walking distance to the biggest supermarket in Aruba and to the famous Eagle Beach! Even during COVID-19 times never felt unsafe, if you're looking to fully enjoy your stay in Aruba, do check this place out. This place is quiet, with pool and bbq area.

    The appliances are updated which is lovely in order to save $ and eat in. The beds are sketchy I didnt not sleep under covers or on the pillows. The construction happening is pretty loud.

  • 5/5 Isacc S. 2 years ago on Google
    Good affordable spot clean and comfortable, great staff. If staying here I would definitely recommended a car. But it is only a 5 min drive from everything. Very quiet at night if that's what your looking for but again only 5 min away from all the action.

    We recently stayed at the Bubali Residence and really enjoyed our stay. Location is great: short walk from the big SuperFood grocery store and 2 other mini markets within steps. A short walk (about 15min) to Eagle Beach too! The grounds are very cozy and pretty. We loved the communal BBQ area by the pool w/ large screen TV and eating area and a communal coffee bar where you can get espresso, tea, or regular coffee 24hrs. Andrés our host was very hospitable, kind, and always smiling and if you you miss your pets while you are away there are 2 very sweet & friendly resident kittys on the property. Pool is a nice size, clean with lots of lounge chairs. Perhaps an upgrade to the cushions on the  wicker sofa by the pool?? We were in STUDIO D and overall we were very comfortable in our spacious studio but did feel that the exterior (balcony) could use a  little renovation. The other apartments looked like they had been renewed with new veranda windows & new tiles on balcony and new chairs. Our kitchen was fully equipped with brand new pots & pans, and appliances. We do reccomend that the microwave be in a more accessible area instead of on top of the refrigerator which was hard to access. Overall this is a little gem of a place and just needs a few little improvements to take it from great to excellent. Would I go back? Yes!!

    Out of all the cheaper hotels, this one is by far the best. I’ve gone to a couple throughout my vacation in Aruba, without wanting to spend a lot on accommodation, and this one has been the best. Nia was amazing, very clean, outdoor bbq which I used everyday to cook up steaks and 10 min walk to the beach. Eagle and Divi beach are the best
