Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The place is very cute. The back of the house faces the water and a great spot to fish. We even saw dolphins from the back porch. The unit is right next to the pool which made it very convenient since we had young kids. The kids and adults had fun on the water slides

Nice place on the water
Very nice property. Feels spacious. Well insulated. We had loud neighbors on the patio but you couldn't hear them too much with the doors closed. There were a couple of small things I didn't like - the pots and pans were terrible to cook with and the prep knives were terrible. Some guests took over the pool with loud music which I thought was inconsiderate and I wish the property managers had said something or maybe that they would post a rule about bringing loud music to the pool. But aside from that we all enjoyed our stay.

Great unit!
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Aruba Bay is a fun place, especially with kids, the pool/slide area is a lot of fun for them. We stayed in a canal side unit with direct access to the pier and we had a lot of fun fishing. The unit itself was very spacious and had 3 full bathrooms, which was great for our family of 5. We would definitely stay in this unit again!

Very Satisfied!
Were were very satisfied with our recent stay. Clean and just as described. The pellet ice maker was a very nice surprise! Seemed a little much that in addition to renting the property we also had to rent one of the boat slips (vs. it just being included with the stay), but no other complaints really. We enjoyed the place and had a great stay.

Great place!
Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The property is beautiful and so nice! The amenities (e.g. pool and clubhouse) are also great! Everything was clean and ready. Only problem we had was the oven did not work when we initially trying to cook food. Maintenance did go, but it wouldn’t be able to be fixed until after our stay. However, it fortunately worked for a bit, and we were able to cook our food. Nonetheless, this was a great stay!

Amazing beach escape
We had an excellent and relaxing stay at the Fair Winds. The community is quiet and relaxing, with excellent amenities in the Yacht club (fitness center, games, pool with TWO slides) and activities at night for the kids. A personal dock on the back for boats with amazing views of the sunset in the evenings. Close to the beach, walking distance if you're willing to walk 10 - 15 min or so, or a 3 minute drive. Townhouse is well furnished and clean. My kids are already asking when we can go back! We would happily stay here again in the future!

Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Well the unit was very nice and clean. Not a whole lot of utensils to cook with. There were plenty of roaches'. killed about 30 of them. Not happy about that. Very quiet, except for the pool part. Other people from other complexes came and used the pool. No one wore the bracelets that were in the condos to excess the pool. There should be stricter rules enforced for that area. All in all we would rent again.

Beach Oasis
We enjoyed our stay at the beach, great amenities and beautiful sunsets . Would like to make several recommendations for the property, update the amenities to include a Keurig, we bought a filter and coffee grounds anticipating a regular coffee maker as listed. Would also find having wine opener, wine glasses, cheese grater and hangers helpful. Thanks again!!

Great stay, loved the decks and husband appreciated slip for boat. Great time fishing, beaches close by, property had many fun things for kids to do like game room, 2 pools, basketball half court, and pickle ball court. House was clean and beautifully decorated, had everything needed for cooking. Husband loved the ice maker machine!

We will probably plan another trip in the future. We had a wonderful time. I called management when we left because my grandchildren left their iPad and the housekeeper found it and y’all sent it to us I am very grateful.

Awesome unit
The unit is very clean and updated. Great views. This specific unit is only one unit away from the pool and 3 minute drive to whitecapap beach. Overall great location. The pool is only 4 ft except for the slide area which is 4ft 6 in. But still a very much enjoyable pool. They have two charcoal grills located behind the pool and two propane grills. The unit is provided with a toaster, air fryer, keurig coffee maker, lots of silver ware/ plates, a sonic ice maker, cooking dishes. They even provide beach chairs and a canopy. How awesome is that. Overall rate our stay here a 10. Would definitely stay here again.
