"Whalecome Inn is Perfect!
This unit gives the perfect Whalecome as soon as you walk through the door. The layout is Amazing!!! Perfect location with great amenities to enjoy. The idea of the master suite downstairs gives the best privacy!!!! Kitchen and living room with 2nd bedroom all upstairs is AMAZING!!! This unit is definitely a favorite of ours and we WILL be returning."

"Love the unit, public amenities need maintenance
This is our 3rd stay at Aruba Bay and Wholesome Inn. We absolutely love the unit and location. Unfortunately, we are disappointed in the overall maintenance of the public amenities. The first year we came, there were organized activities for families (s'mores by the pool, fishing) which we loved and our kids looked forward to, we found out the 2nd year this was no longer happening which was a disappointment. The slide pool, which is one of our main attractions to the Aruba Bay property, is always overcrowded. We usually escape to the other pool for some peace and safety from too many people etc. This year the pools were honestly disgusting to say the least. Both pools waterline tile was disgusting with grime and gunk of which I suspect is sunscreen etc and understand at the beach this is hard to combat however, it looked as though it hadn't been deep cleaned in a very long time. It was uninviting along with the hairballs that were found in the pools and of course the overcrowding just continues to get worse and worse each year. The birds nesting in the slide pool covering and the amount of bird poop on top of the slides is awful and disgusting not to mention the risk of germs and diseases carried by birds. There was missing limestone tiles on the slide pillars and mold and algae growing everywhere. As far as the unit, as previously stated, we love the unit, the furnishing and the household items available are always perfect for our stay and it feels like our home away from home. I did notice this year there is some mold around the air conditioning vent in the living room as you walk towards the bedroom and bathroom. I didn't notice this until the last day but do wonder if it contributed to our daughter starting to have respiratory symptoms by the 3rd day of the trip. We enjoyed our vacation as we found a lot of things to do away from the property but we are not sure we will be back to Aruba Bay or any other properties managed by Padre Escapes in the future. "

"Whalecome Inn was dirty
The condo was nice and spacious. Walk softly otherwise the neighbors will hear. Upon arriving we noticed the condo was unclean. Dog hair was still on base boards and floor. We tried to use the vacuum but it was full of dog. And left a huge mound of dog hair when turned on, it was disgusting. As far as the property, the pool was over crowded. The pool restroom was absolutely disgusting, unclean. The second floor of the club house was covered in bugs. When we went up there we immediately ran down and still had bugs on us. The property needed to be sprayed for bugs and mosquitoes. You could not go out on patio without being attacked by mosquitoes. I wish there was a shower by the pool area to wash the sand off, people were getting in the pool to wash off. "

"We loved our stay....
This was such a nice place to stay. Loved the space, decor, master bed with adjustable head. We hope to stay again next winter. "

"NICE PLACE BUT MISLEADING
Nice place. Clean. Fairly new appliances and furniture. When you have a car and you look for a place with a garage and then you rent it and find a golf cart parked in the garage its a misleading advert. We rented the unit next door(126) a week before and it had a usable garage so we assumed this unit would but the owners decided to advertise falsely. It was made worse by the cold freeze weather where we had to park outside. No garage was a big disappointment!"
