The Mill Resort & Suites

In “ high rise” district , walking distance to an enormous number of good restaurants and shopping opportunities. Resort completely renovated with “ swim up bar” new restaurant and pool area within last 5 years.

Reading some of the other reviews here, I felt it necessary to provide more recent information.

We stayed at The Mill in the summer of 2008. We had toured the facility in 2006, when it was under significant construction (*all* of the units were being remodeled from top to bottom). We had an amazing time. The staff is extremely friendly, the on-resort events are low-pressure, unique and fun, and the rooms are comfortable, clean, and well-equipped.

The Mill is a very unique resort to Aruba: it resides at the south end of the "high rise" area, and grants you access to the high rise Palm Beach areas, but is itself a low-rise resort, meaning much less crowding, fewer people, and more personalized attention. You're 2 blocks from the world-renowned Butterfly Farm, and 1 mile north of Eagle Beach. We would literally choose from day to day which beach environment we wanted to bask in, and everything is an easy walk from this location. (All beaches on Aruba are public, so you can sunbathe and swim anywhere you please.)

The food at the resort restaurant has high variety, yet is affordable, a rarity in Aruba. Also, the 2-for-1 happy hour serves drinks larger than a glorified shot glass. The Mill is relentless about making updates and improvements to its property; every year you'll be wowed.

If you're looking for an resort that gives you easy access to both the high-rise and low-rise resort areas, and is affordable from both a rental and cost-of-living standpoint, strongly consider The Mill.

The Mill Resort is located at the beginning of Palm Beach enjoy walks along Palm Beach with many shops and restaurants along the way…stop in at any hotel casino & try your luck! Enjoy a quiet location moments away from all the action!

I have stayed at the Mill for years. It is my favorite vacation place. The kitchenette is super useful - you can buy groceries in Orangestad and spend less on eating out every night. Plus there's a blender to make your own frozen drinks!

we have been staying at the Mill Resort & Suites since 1999 and own a Timeshare since 2000. My family love the location and the staff. They are like family to us! The room is very clean and we have a kitchen and table in our room as well. We cannot say enough good things about The Mill Resort & Suites!

My husband and I visited this past January. Love the new renovation by the Courtyard Marriot. Significant improvements. Staff was lovely, helpful and Knowledgeable . Food , especially breakfast was delicious and reasonably priced . Happy hour and entertainment - appreciated . We also stay at the Divi Dutch Village. They renovated as well at the same time . Really showing lack of upkeep 5 years later where as the Mill had yet again freshly painted and deep cleaned this resort . We look forward to going back this coming January. Old reviews on this site should be taken down as they are no longer relevant or reflect the current status of this lovely resort.

We love The Mill Resort - we have vacationed here for the past 21 years. Location and size are perfect. Staff are amazing

The Mill is a quaint resort with lots of amenities. It features a full court-yard size pool, swim-up bar, private beach area with golf cart service. Room overlooks the pool, restaurant and two bars. Within walking distance of all the Palm Beach entertainment, restaurants and shopping.

This timeshare is located in a quiet area of the island you walk across the street to the beach that is shared with the Westin Hotel. The staff is friendly and helpful.

The entire facility has been re-modeled. The staff is incredibly friendly and this place is in the high-rise area around a huge shopping and souvenier complex. If you stay out of the high-rise area you have to travel to the marina or elsewhere to do any shopping. Beach is right across the street, there are only a select few resorts that are on the beach, 90% of resorts here are not on the beach, but across the street from the beaches. I took my wife here for our 10 year anniv. and I cant wait to take the kids next year. Will probably vacation in Aruba for the rest of my life. Its paradise.
