Great Location

Everything was as wonderful as expected! The home was so comfortable with an incredible outdoor living area in a quiet area. We enjoyed sitting by the pool in the evenings and mornings listening to the swaying palms and beautiful birds and being a couple minutes' walk from several beaches. It is a bit of a drive to some of the things to do in Aruba, but still very accessible. If you aren't into the big touristy crowds with traffic, shopping and night life, I highly recommend this home! Nearby Arashi Beach is incredible and not terribly crowded.

Family Vacation

We had an absolutely incredible stay at this beautiful home! The house itself was spacious, well-appointed, and had everything we needed for a comfortable getaway. Mornings on the patio with a cup of coffee, surrounded by tropical birds, quickly became a favorite part of our routine.The kitchen was user-friendly, and we had no trouble preparing meals almost daily. We especially enjoyed using the grill in the evenings! The beds were super comfortable, and it was so nice having plenty of space to spread out and relax.The highlight of the home, though, was its unbeatable proximity to the beaches. We started each morning with a swim alongside the turtles at Tres Trapi—such a magical experience. We also loved spending time at Boca Catalina and Arashi, both just a short distance away.We’re already looking forward to booking our next stay!

Fabulous villa

Our stay at this incredible Aruba home was absolutely perfect! The location is unbeatable—close to all the best beaches, restaurants, and attractions, yet peaceful and private for total relaxation. The house was spotless when we arrived, and it’s clear the owners take great care in keeping it in top condition.The spacious layout gave us plenty of room to spread out, especially around the pool area, which was perfect for lounging and enjoying the beautiful weather. The check-in process was smooth and effortless, allowing us to settle in and start our vacation without any stress.From the well-equipped kitchen to the comfortable, cozy bedrooms, every detail was thoughtfully designed to make us feel right at home. We can’t recommend this property highly enough and will definitely be returning for our next Aruba getaway!

Perfect Aruba family trip, location, home! Skip the hotels!

My wife and I, (early 40's), and twin 10 year old boys had a perfect trip to Aruba staying here. We have never done a VRBO outside of the US, so I was nervous, but after all the research I did about Aruba and looking into the area where this home is located, we decided to go for it... and we could not have been happier. This was the first we'd been to Aruba, and with the prices of all the hotels I decided to look into VRBO and a car rental, and this was absolutely the way to go. For the same price, or less, of the high end hotels we got a gorgeous, spacious home with full kitchen, pool, grill and gorgeous outdoor space. It was only four of us, so the home size was a little overkill for our needs, but this was the type of location we wanted: very quiet, residential, walking distance to QUIET beaches, and the best snorkeling on the island. I seriously cannot say enough about the location. I would say another family of 4, 2A+2C, would have fit comfortably with us. The air conditioning was perfect - you need it in Aruba! The kitchen and outside Weber grill were great: we ate at the house more than we expected because the butcher at Super Foods was so good. The owners were always available, and there is a local contact in case we needed anything, but we didn't. Absolutely recommend and we would stay here again.

Great place, great location

House was clean and well stocked. Room descriptions were accurate. There was 7 or 8 beach chairs, a few masks/snorkles, some fins and several coolers available for use. Pool was a great feature to jump in for a quick cool down. Carlito was the local point of contact and was very responsive to any questions or requests. Highly recommended if you are looking to visit the island.

Family Vacation

Location and house were absolutely spectacular! My husband and I are familiar with the island, but was a first time trip for my parents and adult children and they now know why we keep coming back! House very spacious and pool area stunning with lots of places to relax outdoors. There is a clothesline in back which was an extra bonus. Lots of pool/beach items, but some pretty worn out. Lots of dishes/glasses, but as far as pots/pans to cook with--we were struggling as choices were minimal and quite worn that we didn't want to cook on. No cookie sheets at all, but LOTS of serving platters and accessories. The only other downfall was the water pressure was minimal (which is at a lot of places on the island), but the water temp was only luke warm for showers. Not a deal breaker, but just be aware. Carlitos was very friendly upon check in/out (fortunately didn't need to contact him during our stay). And John/Vilma were wonderful to interact with and quite responsive. Thank you sooo much for sharing your home in paradise with us! Would definitely stay here again and recommend to others! Until next time :)

Amazing Snorkeling

The property was perfect for our vacation. We walked to snorkel and saw tons of sea life including puffer fish, turtles and several different fish. It was beautiful. California lighthouse is very close and several shops and restaurants are just a short drive away. The pool and outside areas were wonderful to just relax and enjoy the warm weather. The house itself is spacious and has most everything you need.

Best Snorkeling

Quick walk to Tres Trapi and Boca Catalina, we walked with our snorkel gear daily. Very popular snorkeling spot, especially for green turtles. Not close to many shops or restaurants (quiet) so it will be a trek if you want to eat out or shop. Place is older/needs update but was clean, free of sand, and plenty large enough for our party of 5.
