We were encouraged to stay in the Gold Coast by some friends, and so glad we did. Townhome was upscale and exactly as described. Everything was high end and made for such a relaxing vacation.We are not "super-Highrise hotel" people, and since we always get a rental car in Aruba, this location is perfect. A few steps away is a community pool, we had coffee every morning and drinks every evening at the pool, and always made new friends. The pool closes at 7pm so no issues with late night noise. There are several other pools in the Gold Coast including the main pool by the restaurant.Both bedrooms and the downstairs each had their own Air Conditioner. We stayed very cool and comfortable in every room. That was one thing I was worried about before we arrived, but no issues. Communication with the host was fast and accurate. We had no issues during our 7 night stay, and check in was so easy.There is a great restaurant, work out facility, tennis courts, etc. at the Gold Coast. 5 minute car ride to Arashi beach, which I know sounds crazy but was the only beach we went to for seven days. There is a restaurant/bar onsite, we rented a huge umbrella and beach chairs every day, for us it was all we wanted.If you are looking for a no-brainer, book with confidence.
