What stood out most at this VRBO was the location and amenities. I was not expecting all the beach gear provided, and packed by own. In reality, I only needed snorkel gear and a beach shade because everything else was provided!

We had a wonderful time in Aruba, the villa was wonderful and the host was absolutely great. This location is perfect for us. We were able to walk to the beaches for swimming and snorkeling. We felt very safe. This unit had everything we needed. We went shopping the day we arrived and cooked our meals at the villa. We will definitely be back!

Overall we had a great time! The apt was perfect for my husband and I and reasonably priced! It is located away from main tourist areas but not hard to get to places in about 5-10mins drive. We like to cook in for several meals to save money to be able to do other things and would recommend a few more pots/pans and cleaning dish cloths?We lived there for 10days like we do at our main home.We would def stay there again

Perfect Stay

This quaint property suited my families needs perfectly. The location is in walking distance to great snorkeling beaches, the strand for morning runs, but tucked away from the high rise, low rise hotels and touristy area. The kitchen provided enough essentials for cooking in as well as an area for eating indoors as well as the quaint outdoor patio. If you are looking for location, the basics and a decent price, this is your place!
