The house is gorgeous! Very clean. The lounge furniture in the picture wasn't all there. There was a table, some chairs, & two lounge chairs. There was issues with the hot water but we made do. Make sure you ASK for the water situation to be explained! House was perfect for 7 girls there for a bachelorette party!

Although this is not a beach property, but located in a residential neighborhood in Oranjestad - it was a great vacation home for the two of us and two other couples. The home is very spacious, clean and well decorated. There is a huge kitchen with all amenities. There is a stove top and microwave, but no oven for baking, but there is a gas grill outside so we were able to cook in several meals with no issues. The swimming pool in the back is the perfect size for a small group, where we spent time almost every day after returning from the beach, or other excursions. The home sleeps 8 and also offers a full size washer and dryer and clothes lines for hanging wet swimsuits and towels, etc. There are 2 full baths in the main house (attached to two of the bedrooms, and another full bath in the 4th bedroom that is accessed from a separate entrance than the main house. We did not use this area as it had a strange smell at the time of our visit. There is also a 1/2 bath in the main house. There is a secured garage where we kept our rental van, plenty of beach and lawn chairs, a nice patio table for outside meals and lots of seating room in the house for lounging or having meals, drinks, etc. Annie the housekeeper and Basil the house manager were very pleasant, met us at the prearranged times for key exchanges, etc. Really nice people. I would consider staying here again if I ever go back to Aruba, and I would recommend this home for anyone who is ok with having a non-beach resort experience, and who prefers more of a "home" atmosphere. Great experience!

Originally my husband and I rented this villa for a getaway for the cold winter in Wisconsin, and then at Christmas we found out my mother in law was terminally ill and brought the family to stay. It was spacious and comfortable for all of us. This villa was perfectly located in Aruba, close to the airport, shopping,dining and off road vehicle rentals. We explored all of Aruba by land and sea. We ate at some great restaurants, one favorite place was the Westdock. The villa was perfect for grandma to relax and be in a quiet outdoor without all the tourist. We did yoga every morning on the patio and were able to cool off after in the pool. The housekeepers were great, always there if we needed them by phone. I would love to bring some of my yoga students here for a retreat! Thanks for the wonderful stay!
