Parking rates were either free or very cheap ($1-2, for 2 hours). Definitely will be returning to Aruba and to this property. Fantastic hosts! ##### Lailoni O.

The owner was very informative from the time we booked our vacation, at our arrival, while visiting the island and as we departed. The home is as pictured. Having the beach chairs, beach towels, and cooler to use was an added bonus. We loved the Mangel Halto beach which was in front of the home. Often there were times when only my family was on the beach. How much more relaxing can a vacation be? We loved all of the beaches in Aruba but this was one of our favorites due to proximity to the home and snorkeling. We plan to visit again and will plan to return to this home! ##### Angela F.

Dec 29, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Family-friendly accommodations This was one of the most well stocked VRBO stays we’ve booked. Everything was on hand from toiletries to kitchen items like coffee filters, dishwasher soap, etc. The laundry even had pods for the one load we ran. Right across the street from a beach and snorkeling spot with a wagon to take beach supplies. Also stocked with family games.We were there over Christmas week, so be prepared for other beach goers coming & going down the block and parking can get full in front of the property view of the water. It’s a setting with people enjoying music, so if you’re expecting seclusion, this isn’t the right pick.Furniture seems new and well cared for.Location is a central point on the island and nothing was farther than 30 mins drive. If going to National Park is part of your plans, opt for the 4 wheel drive vehicle.The block behind has a family restaurant La Tavola (Anna’s place) which was the best dining experience we had on the island. A must book reservation if you are a foodie. ##### Heather R. Stayed 7 nights in Dec 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Theresa B.

There were 3 bedrooms each with their own bathroom. The backyard had a large covered area to eat, relax or hang out. The living room, dining room and front yard had beautiful views of Mangel Halto Beach (our favorite beach). The house was clean, spacious and well equipped. Each bathroom had body wash, shamppo and conditioner. There were hair dryers and a steamer to iron clothes and the kitchen was fully equipped. The fridge had a water and ice dispenser which never ran out of ice and was perfect for filling our water bottles before leaving the house daily. The house is right across the street from the beach which was the best part! We loved being able to just walk across the street to go to beach. The house also has an outdoor shower to wash yourself off after the beach. Michel responds very quickly if there is anything you need. My kids say this was their favorite vacation! We would LOVE to stay here again! ##### Theresa B. Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Elisa E. Jan 8, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great location This house is in a fantastic location - far enough away from the resort area to be less crowded and noisy and close enough that it is an easy commute for activities, dinner, etc. It is right off the best snorkeling in Aruba - if you go to the end of the mangroves and do the drift route, the variety of corals and fish is fantastic. But do your research first, as the drift route is for advanced snorkelers since the current is quite strong. Once you start there's no going back as the current is too strong to swim against and the reef blocks you from going into shore until you find one of the reef breaks. The reef gets more shallow as you get closer to the break; we have advanced snorkeling equipment and found it a challenge to keep far enough from the reef until we got to the break. The house itself is comfortable. The house has actually recently been sold; we had a problem with the dryer and the new owner was super responsive and had it fixed within 24 hours. ##### Elisa E. Stayed 7 nights in Dec 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sandra C. Nov 16, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Fantastic! We had a wonderful stay at this lovely home. The location was perfect for staying away from the commercialized areas but close to everything we wanted to do because nothing is really far away in Aruba. We especially enjoyed walking out the front door with our snorkel gear in hand and needing nothing else because we could walk across the street and get right into the water for great snorkeling. There is plenty of snorkeling gear (masks, snorkels, fins, water shoes) available but would suggest just bringing your own mask if you snorkel a lot so you don’t have to try to find one that fits you well without leaking. We also had some amazing meals very close to the home including La Tavola (don’t miss this place, it’s incredible), Marina Pirata, and Flying Fishbone. There was plenty of room for 5 adults and 3 bathrooms is a major plus. Air conditioning works great too. The only very minor issue we had was with figuring out the alarm, but the host promptly answered a text and then took our call to walk us through it. We could not have asked for better communication. Hosts were exceptional and even helped with our dinner reservations before our arrival. There are so many more great things I could say about this property (I.e. great view, comfy hammocks, nice backyard, and felt safe), but bottom line is you won’t regret staying here. Just rent a car or Jeep so you can see and experience the entire island. ##### Sandra C. Stayed 4 nights in Nov 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Brad W. Jul 19, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great House and Great Host My wife and I stayed here in July 24. Just us two. Michel was wonderful to work with and very communicative. House was very clean thanks to Marie and equipped with everything you could possibly want/need. Michel has gone to great lengths to make sure your stay is exceptional. This was our first time to Aruba, and maybe the only island we have not visited. We have avoided Aruba because of the crowdedness which is why we avoided the "hotel zone" this time. This house was perfect for us. It is in a real local working neighborhood with lots of houses. (a dump truck lives next door) It sits steps from the water across a neighborhood street that desperately needs a speed hump. Its also across from a very popular snorkeling spot that dumps off "hotel zone" tourist all day for swim, beach, and kayak. This is good and bad, did not bother us one bit. Roaming dogs are all friendly. Never felt unsafe and small grocery and snack shops are very close. (if you need a quick bite anytime, La Granga is 3 km away and good) You are about 20 minutes from hotel zone, 10 minutes from Baby Beach and everything is a very easy drive. If you want people, they are nearby. You got to try Flying Fishbone, Marina Pirata (close by) and Pinchos, super good restaurants. We will be back to this house for sure, loved it! We almost felt like locals by the time we left. (If you see a sweet calico cat, we named her princess and please feed her) ##### Brad W. Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2024 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Carlos G.

The house was comfortable, clean and cool. We liked the location outside of the resort hustle and bustle. It is a short drive to the different beaches and restaurants. We enjoyed the donkey sanctuary so much. Baby Beach and Arashi Beach were our favorites. Plenty of good restaurants nearby and in the resort areas. The swimming and snorkeling is great at the house.

May 4, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Our favorite vacation spot We stayed in this house by accident 2 years ago because we were unable to stay in home we had rented due to plumbing issues. It was a blessing. Loved the location of this house. When we decided to return we were pleasantly surprised that the home furnishings had been updated as well as the landscaping. There is faux grass that I wasn’t sure I would like but it is actually perfect. So much better than concrete and/or dirt. We could sit or lie in the hammock on the front porch and gaze out on the ocean. Three bedrooms and three baths are perfect when you’re traveling with other couples. Plus the rooms are very spacious. Can’t wait to return next year! ##### Toni M. Stayed 6 nights in Apr 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### pricilla c.

Communication with Michel was perfect. The home feels comfortable, has everything you need and more. On the quiet side of the coast so rent a car to drive into town, or to other sites as needed. Then come home to safety, comfort, and an amazing sunset. Wake up and have coffee on the porch, then jump into the clear blue waters of Mangel Alto! Been to Aruba a few times, but this visit was the best to date. Enjoyed the decor, and the ample space. The hammocks in front and back felt like a gift from the Universe. We will definitely be booking again in the future! ##### pricilla c. Stayed 7 nights in Oct 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Sandy A. Feb 14, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Relaxing location and lovely snorkeling spot! The location was great with gorgeous views of the water and amazing sunset viewing nightly. My husband and i snorkeled every day, and always saw tons of beautiful, brightly colored fish! The house was very spacious for two! I turned the third bedroom into an exercise room and dressing area. I so appreciated the combo step- in bathtub and shower in the bathroom off the master. The bathrooms were lovely, with lots of natural light. Please anticipate decor more like a family home than the luxury of a resort. Needs some maintenance and newer furniture, but overall felt cozy, safe and private, without all the hustle and bustle of the high rise area! Just steps from the front door is one of the best snorkeling spots in Aruba! The other one was Boca Catalina. With a rental car --shops, restaurants, the butterfly farm and other lovely beaches (including Boca) are only 10-20 minutes away. This is a great place to build forever memories! ##### Sandy A.

We really enjoyed this location! A lot of time was spent on the front porch gazing at the beautiful blue water. The house had everything that we needed. There was plenty of space for 3 couples. ##### Cassandra E. Stayed 11 nights in Dec 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Cara H. Jan 16, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great Size For Large Family in Peaceful Location Awesome, spacious home with multiple bedrooms nicely spread out. Fully stocked kitchen w/ large dining table. Across the street from beautiful beach w/ great snorkeling. Would definitely recommend renting a car if you want access to grocery stores & getting to the many fabulous excursions since they are on the other side of the island by the tourist resort area since although taxis are easy to get they are quite expensive going back & forth. There’s a fabulous neighborhood bar just down the street & a wonderful over the water restaurant a short 10 minute walk away. Definitely recommend for larger group or families! ##### Cara H.

Needs the back cleaned up and chaise lounges. ##### Salvatore P.
