The kitchen is fully equipped with all the necessary appliances including a double sized refrigerator AND a small sized refrigerator for beverages, dishwasher, gas stove and cook top, microwave, toaster, coffee machine, blender as well as plates and cookware.
As mentioned, the 4th bedroom is a private studio connected to the living area, it has an ensuite bathroom, and has a great private outdoor garden with patio, so it is a great master bedroom.
The studio has an extra kitchen with fridge and an extra washing machine, which is also a great benefit.
The living area of this studio can convert in a 5th bedroom with a pull out sofa (see photos). This sofa could sleep 1 adult or 2 children.

The home has a laundry room with a washer and dryer, where we also have beach chairs and a cooler for you.

NOTES:
The end-cleaning fee of USD 250 is not charged through VRBO but is cash on arrival. This fee covers both the preparation and cleaning of the home before you arrive and the cleaning after you leave. We charge this fee seperately because your rental payment goes to the homeowner abroad, but because the cleaning gets done locally it is more efficient to have it paid out in Aruba.

Please take the time to read our houserules, we rent homes for relaxing family vacations, not for large events or parties.
SMOKING outdoors only.

We highly recommend you take out travel insurance as soon as you book your trip as this provides you with immediate cover for unforeseen emergencies. Travel insurance helps cover financial losses associated with surprise circumstances that could ruin a trip, including illness, injury, accidents, flight or other transportation delays, and other issues. Please understand that if you do not have travel insurance, any losses because of emergencies will be at your own risk and we uphold our VRBO cancellation policy and only refund according to those policies.

Your water and electricity is INCLUDED in your rental.
However, we do take meter readings and ask our guests to be energy concious and report running toilets, turn off AC when the rooms are not in use.

Our stay covered 9 nights October7 to 16, 2024 with 6 adults. Some minor confusion on locating the home; however, once we understood the house numbering and learning there were two different entrance roads all worked well. The home is accurately depicted in the VRBO listing. The home was very clean. Spacious kitchen area with a great supply of silverware, dishes, glasses and cups. Nice touch was the coffee grounds and tea bags to get the group through the first morning. Seating was adequate in living room and dining area table very comfortable for the group for eating and game play. There is a large covered patio and the pool was great for relaxation when we were not at the beaches. Bedrooms met the needs intended and no one had any complaints about the beds or having any challenges sleeping. The only unusual issue was the shared bathroom does not have any electrical outlets to use for any electrical need. House is protected by an alarm system that is controlled by a fob for convenience when exiting and entering the home. We parked the rented car (which we strongly recommend) safely inside the parking area that has a gate covering the home entrance. Communication with management group was very good. Having 6 beach chairs and beach towels made thee trips to the beach enjoyable. And having a washer/dryer was wonderful. One concern that we notified the management group is a leak in master bathroom. When we had two rain storms at night the bathroom floor and hall

Wonderful property
The house was just lovely. Spacious bedrooms, great bathrooms with good water pressure. Large living area and a very well stocked kitchen. There was a large covered seating area with a BBQ and a great breeze so it was a fantastic area to sit and eat out. The pool area was in the sun all day and there were loungers around it. There were two other seating areas as well. We just had the most relaxing stay and it was very convenient for the beach. I’d say that you’d have to rent a car.

We were greeted by Jose, the binder provider answered any questions we may ever have. Home was clean and had plenty of room. We have five children ranging from 6-22, with twin 15yo. The bedrooms were approved by everyone. The pool was an added bonus! Highly recommend.

Great Place for a Large Group
We had a large party of 9 friends and family staying at the villa; everyone had a place to sleep (without having to use the couch!), and with 3 bathrooms there was plenty of privacy. We enjoyed the pool, outdoor dining and that we were walking distance from a small grocery in one direction and a beautiful beach the other. Having a fully equipped kitchen allowed us to save by cooking most of our own meals, and a washer and dryer allowed us to pack a little lighter and keep up with our beach towels! Everything was very clean, and all those little things you sometimes forget about (like toilet paper!) were provided to get us off to a good start. We would recommend this villa to anyone visiting Aruba, though it would be wasted on a smaller party, especially since there was a whole second kitchen! Love that there were plenty of beach towels and chairs, etc. The only down side to this villa was the sweet stray dog that frequently visited us and then had to leave behind. Great location, very convenient to everything. Daniel, the property management representative was friendly and responded quickly when we had questions. The pool was serviced twice while we were there and the main trash can was collected at least once. Great vacation place with the comforts of home!

Clean but farther from beach than had hoped
Overall, this property was a good fit for our purposes of our stay. We were celebrating my birthday and staying were my husband and I, my daughter and her boyfriend, and my son and his two children, ages 8 and 10. I might be a little harsh in my overall impression of this house as I really researched it and thought I had found the PERFECT house for our group's visit. Afterall, it was the first time we have ever all travelled together and I wanted the setting to be perfect. There were some unexpected problems but overall a good place to stay. It was a comfortable house though the furniture was basic. I really wish it was a bit more updated... seemed like some basic maintenance was being neglected. The bedroom configuration was perfect to accommodate all of us. The hot water in all three bathrooms was sometimes an issue as it was hit or miss whether it delivered hot water...didn't seem to matter if other people were showering at the same time. It was still always "warm enough" but sometimes not hot. The shower in the apartment was VERY SMALL! The kitchen was well equipped . There was a nice selection of spices and enough plates and flatware to work for a larger group. The large burner on the stovetop was finicky but worked. The grill was a nice addition and, since it was hooked up to the gas for the house, there was never a problem. If arriving as a larger group, bring extra garbage bags, toilet paper and paper towels as they only provide a certain amount and it isn't quite enough to make it through a week's stay. MY biggest complaint was that there were ALWAY insects at the pool... not sure if it was because there had been a lot of rain recently or the astro turf was a breeding ground for the pest-like gnats... they DID NOT BITE but were simply a nuisance. The outdoor cushions for the chairs were older and stained and simply not enough cushions for the number of outside chairs. The location of the house was a bit far from the beach (certainly not walking distance) though we knew this ahead of time. It was in a nice, safe neighborhood but woken every morning by dogs incessantly barking at 6 am. The laundry room was a welcome plus. It was also great to have beach towels for everyone and really nice beach chairs.
