We had an incredible stay in this home. The house offers plenty of space, and the shaded carport made parking our rented Jeep easy. From here, every day was a new adventure.The house itself is beautiful and well-equipped with modern amenities. The spacious kitchen has everything needed to prepare meals after visiting local markets. The upper deck offers stunning ocean views, and the private backyard is a peaceful retreat with lounging areas, shade, a pool (which the kids loved), and an outdoor grill.Mini-split cooling throughout, but we preferred to open the panoramic sliding doors and enjoy the island’s natural breezes. The three modern bathrooms are also a great touch.The neighborhood is quiet and safe, and Aruba felt welcoming everywhere we went. Local markets, grocery stores, and fantastic small restaurants are just a short drive away. While the resorts, casinos, and high-end malls are nearby, we found the real magic of Aruba in its colorful markets, family-run eateries, and hidden beaches where the island’s heart truly shines.We used this home’s location to explore freely. The nearby beach is a 10-minute walk, but with free parking across the island, we visited many different beaches, each with its own unique charm. Arashi Beach was our favorite for sunsets, and we highly recommend venturing out to the island’s breathtaking coastline.The owner was extremely helpful, responsive, and even provided beach gear, making our adventures even easier.
