This property is the best stay I’ve ever been at. For my first time in Aruba I’m so happy I got to stay here! We did have a mix up with our reservation however, they upgraded us for the travel and now everywhere I stay I must have a swim up room lol. The staff was amazing, polite and super accommodating. They offered to book us transfers to the airport as well but we booked that in advance. They called the night before to see if we needed assistance with anything. Just a 10/10 experience and I would love to come back! Just don’t make the prices go up crazy lol it was all worth it in the end. I can’t wait to see how much JOIA grows. They’re well on their way!

The Perfect Honeymoon!

My wife and I stayed here for our honeymoon and it was fantastic! It’s everything you’d expect from a brand new 5 star hotel. The room was great, the food and drinks at Marea were excellent as well as the poolside food and drinks. Special shout out to Camille at the rooftop bar/pool, she was so sweet and made our time by the pool that much better! The beach in front of the resort is beautiful and very quiet compared. We loved everything about our stay and can’t wait to come back!

Joia at Iberostar Aruba was one of the worst “luxury” resort experiences I’ve ever had. While there were a few kind and professional staff members—the bellmen were incredibly helpful and friendly, assisting us with luggage and promptly getting us taxis whenever needed, and the front desk personnel were polite and welcoming—unfortunately, the rest of the experience was a disaster. The service at the restaurants and bars was appalling. Staff often stood around doing nothing, rarely approached our table, and made no effort to see if we needed anything. At breakfast, we were rushed out every morning - a plate was taken out of my hand when I told waitress I wasn’t done repeatedly. Staff was constantly hovering over us like we were in the way. It was uncomfortable and rude. Beach and poolside service was just as bad. We were ignored while waiters passed us multiple times to serve other guests. It took forever to get a drink, and we often gave up entirely. At the rooftop bar, we asked if we could order food from the downstairs restaurant and were told no—we had to order it ourselves and go pick it up. Meanwhile, our neighbors by the pool were getting full service and had the exact same food delivered to them. The double standard was blatant and completely unacceptable. To make matters worse, the drinks were a complete rip-off. They were expensive, weak, and clearly watered down—I had several and didn’t feel the slightest buzz. It’s obvious they’

Great and pleasant staff. Pool areas were very clean and well maintained. Elevator access was not practical, for the elderly and handicapped. The property had very slippery floors all around and uneven floors made us trip often. Staff should be more specific giving instructions in regards to bus pick up and drop off locations and times.
