Vacation home with hotel service in sunny garden with pool, close to beach

Wonderful vacation home with air conditioning. Max 4 persons.
The property is located at the sunny garden with pool at popular and cosy 'Camacuri Residence Resort'. Approxemately 8 minutes walk to 'Reflexions' Beach.

The house is equipped with all conveniences needed for a fabulous vacation on beautiful Aruba in the Cariben. For your convenience there are 4 beach chairs and various cool boxes in the house for you to take to the beach. Various cooling elements are located in the freezer. 'Camacuri Residence' also has an ice cube machine free to use.

The kitchen is fully equipped with everything you need to prepare your breakfast, lunch, dinner or tasty snacks.
Good sleep is essential for a great holiday. The 'kingsize' box spring beds are large, comfortable and equipped with luxury top-deck mattresses.
Nothing better than a good hot shower!
Our renovated bathroom is comfortably equipped with a hot water supply in the shower. Worth mentioning because this is not obvious in Aruban homes.

Our 'hotel service' means: daily cleaning, fresh towels and the beds are made for you daily. The beds are changed twice a week. With the 'bath towel service' you can, at the reception and against a small deposit, borrow beach towels for the pool or for the beach. (more space in your suitcase for other things).
So with us you'll find a real relaxing vacation without mass tourism.

The lovely 'Reflexions Beach' is an 8-minute walk away. The center of Oranjestad is a 15 minutes' walk away.
Here you will find the lively marina, shops, restaurants, bars and terraces.

You have a private terrace with garden table and garden chairs. At the swimming pool is a sun terrace with plenty of sun beds, chairs and a large BBQ.

Free Wi-Fi is available throughout the resort and of course in our vacation home

'Camacuri Residence' is a hospitable, small complex with excellent service.
The helpful and professional team at 'Camacuri Residence' will do all they can to make your stay a fantastic vacation! During your stay they will answer questions you might have and help you where needed. Camacuri's motto: you arrive as a guest and you leave as a friend.

With us, the rent includes water and electricity consumption so no expensive surprises at the end of your vacation.
(based on an average of 7 hours of air conditioning use per day / night.)

In the immediate vicinity you will find a supermarket and a bakery. For those who want to use public transport (AruBus), the bus stop is just around the corner from 'Camacuri Residence'.

We have good agreements with a reputable and reliable local car rental company.
As an extra service we can put you in contact with them. If desired, the car can be delivered at the vacation home upon arrival and can be picked up again in consultation with the car rental company. The costs, Awg 75 - (+/- € 39,-) per 24 hours, tank full / full system and fully insured are very competitive. The rental cars are 4 door sedans and never over 4 years old.

This was a great property, the hosts were very nice the apt. Was great. The pool was great there is a bar by the pool they serve limited breakfast and dinner all food was good. If you plan on staying at camacuri i would highly recommend renting a car. I rented a 4 door sedan for 300$US for 6 nights so great rental prices. There is a beach and restaurants within 10 minutes walk but you do need a car to get down town and if you want to go to different beaches you need transportation. Camacuri is more in a residential area the night life and shopping/dinning is about 20 minute drive. The island is very easy to get around plenty of parking most free, some for a small fee. The resort has free gated parking! Definitely recommend camacur. Youll love it to.

Very relaxing
We loved the relaxed feeling after the day’s adventure. My kids loved the pool and I liked that it was not the overwhelming experience of the all inclusive hotels up island. We walked out to nearby restaurants every night (but could have cooked in the well appointed kitchen) and found the area safe and accessible. Will certainly return to this hidden gem.

Everything was clean and quiet. All the staff was very nice and the cleaning staff came by regularly to make sure we had towels and bedding even before their employee day off. The pool was fabulous and well maintained. Many times we had the pool to ourselves because it was so quiet. Overall wonderful experience. The only down side was we had to taxi to most locations. We did walk a few times but it was very hot some days. Taxis about $10-$20USD for most locations.

Highly Recommend This Property
We really enjoyed our time at Camacuri. The entire process from booking to check out was simple and hassle free. The front desk attendant, amazing, she was incredibly helpful during our stay. Location is great. Close to the airport so there is no traffic to fight between the two locations. In the evening, you wouldn’t even know there is an airport nearby as the property is very quiet, calm, and relaxed. I believe the word is tranquil. Recommend going to Reflexions Beach Bar & Restaurant, about an 8 to 10 minute walk to from the property and definitely book a day trip to De Palm Island. Come as Guests Leave as Friends, said a small sign hanging on the wall of the front desk at Camacuri. We chuckled a little about it during our check-in, but we felt that sentiment when we left. I can’t wait to return to Aruba and Camacuri is where I plan to be staying.

Peaceful and lovely apartment
When we first arrived, we were taken aback as the photos are a little more glamorous than the place itself. We also realized that for our 3-week stay to be satisfactory, it was best to rent a car. We’ve adopted a 72-hour rule before judging accommodations (we are full-time travellers) and this place grew on us. The apartment itself is spotlessly clean (and comes with daily housekeeping services). It has a well-stocked kitchen and a gas stove. A washer AND dryer are available on-site. The pool is also spotless. And the bed is super comfortable. And the wi-fi is reliable. Things to be aware of include that warm water is only available in the shower (not in kitchen or bathroom sink), which makes washing dishes interesting! Also, bring mosquito repellant—we found mosquito coils kept them at bay in the mornings on our lovely front porch. The complex needs some TLC (the new owner has some big plans). And the location made it easy to get to downtown, grocery stores and an excellent local beach. We would stay here again if we ever return to Aruba.

Not a 5 star, but pretty decent overall!
Check in was easy. Staff were helpful, friendly and accommodating. I would suggest a car so you can see the whole island and check out the great places to eat. Our fav - West Desk - went 3 times. Aruba water is the best we’ve run across for drinking. Had some great excursions - atv- snorkeling- jet skying- Palm Island and Aqua Windie’s were wonderful. Swam with the sea turtle. Even the big green lizards around the pool were friendly. A couple of hiccups which is no reflection on Wilfred - the lounge chairs are needing some tender loving care and the pool pump was down for a couple of days. So we made them beach days. FYI Baby Beach wins it for us. The only drawback - the wicker living room furniture is very squeaky and not very comfortable to sit in. After a long day in the sun sometimes a comfy chair/couch and some tv time is what you need. But hey we had a great time anyway.

The staff were real friendly and accommodating. Our room was cleaned each day at the time of our choosing. The beds were comfortable and the space was just right for us three. The beach was a 5 minute walk from the vrbo. At this time of year, there wernt many people staying so it was nice and quiet. The pool area was clean with plenty of lounge chairs. We didnt use the BBQ but its available if you want to grill your food. We could adjust our AC and 25⁰ C was comfortable. The only downside was our unit didnt have an oven, which we realized AFTER we bought a frozen pizza! We mentioned it to our onsite manager, Estrelle, and she let us have the keys to the unit next door, which had an oven. They go above and beyond to please you.

Great Hospitality
Overall our stay was good. The property owner checked in and was very helpful. He made sure everything was all set for our stay and checked in while we were there. The property manager, an very nice woman(I have forgotten her name), I as also very helpful and accommodating. The actual condo was very clean and the cleaning lady came once a day which was great. The only downfalls to this property would be the area was definitely a huge difference from our last stay in Aruba where we stayed on a resort. The landscaping was over grown and the pool was very small and we did not spend much time there. That’s where i felt the pictures did not match the actual property. The area itself was okay but if you are looking for a lot of things to be in walking distance, the area is not the best for that. There is a beach that’s about 8-10 minute walking distance that has a cute little restaurant nearby. We did not swim at that beach because it was not as nice as the other beaches on the island. If you stay at this location you definitely want to rent a car to visit the other parts of the island because it is so beautiful and you will have to walk a ways to see everything. Again, the owner and manager are beyond nice and hospitable. The place was very clean. The cost was very afforadable. The only drawback was the landscaping, the pool and the location.

Everything you need for a comfortable stay
For our first visit to Aruba, Wilfred's place was the perfect place to call home for a week. Plenty of space to relax, a well-equipped kitchen, swimming pool, and gated parking were all nice touches. Close enough to beaches, dining, and attractions, yet far enough from the tourist spots that you can enjoy a quiet stay. Wilfred checked in regularly by WhatsApp to make sure we were happy. Very highly recommended.

Amazing stay! And Wilfred is a great host!
Our stay at Wilfred’s place at Camacuri was amazing. We spent 18 days there. Kitchen was fully equipped. Housekeeping was top notch. Even during the covid times, our stay was hassle free. Social distancing was practiced at the property. Everything from the management to housekeeping, security was taken care of. I would 100% recommended Wilfred’s place. Also he is always available through WhatsApp and told us about so many great places in Aruba. We can’t wait to come back to Aruba again next year!!

We would like to thank Wilfred for his hospitality and his wonderful apartment. He went above and beyond communicating with us to make sure our vacation was the best. The location of the apartment was perfect (a short walk to the beach, a 10 minute bus ride to downtown Oranjestad, and a variety convenience store 1 block away). A very secure gated property with a pool to cool off after a long day. Looking forward to spending a longer time at your beautiful apartment (one month was just not long enough!!) Would have no hesitation recommending this apartment. Thanks Bill & Noreen Porter

Perfect place for a surprise getaway
The property is beautiful, a little gem tucked into a hidden paradise of its own. There are gates to park within, -and the property has 24 hr surveillance. the room was quaint and felt like Aruba! The staff was so friendly, always serving with a smile-and took time to chat with the tourists about their motherland and the history of Aruba. It felt like being with family for 3 days, (which is how the whole island felt to be honest!) The property ios also situated right in the middle of both sides of the island, which was convenient because each day we circled the entire island. Aruba is tiny, but oh so much to do and so much beauty to see !

Our apartment
Communication with Wilford was good! The man at the front desk was waiting for our arrival and very nice! The apartment was close to the airport. We drove to other beaches and took the chairs and cooler provided. The closest beach was our least favorite. (We drove because it was too hot and long of a walk with beach stuff.) Surfside beach smelled a little fishy and many kids. Baby beach (best beach EVER), eagle and palm beach were awesome- drive there! Our apartment was clean, a/c worked great, we felt safe, and it was filled with all of our needs! We did take clothes to wash, but the washer or dryer we were told was broken. No worries- we washed several items in the kitchen sink. Buy dish soap and paper towels- not provided. They do have tv and free WiFi, but you could only use it in the living area- it didn’t go through in the bedrooms. Our only complaint would be the living room wicker furniture is not comfy at all, but if you want tv or WiFi that’s where you’re forced to sit...Or the front porch- so we did enjoy sitting out there watching the birds and lizards! Despite the minor things, we would definitely stay here again!! It’s a great home base for traveling the beautiful island!!!

Sehr schöne, saubere und gepflegte Anlage
Wir waren insgesamt 10 Tage in der Anlage in Camacuri.Die Ferienwohnung gehört zu einer kleinen, gepflegten ruhigen Anlage. Die Ferienwohnung und die Anlage waren sehr sauber und es wurde täglich gereinigt. Die Ferienwohnung ist sehr gut ausgestattet und verfügt über 4 Schlafplätze (2 Einzelbetten im oberen Bereich und ein Doppelbett unten). Parkplätze gibt es in ausreichender Zahl innerhalb der Anlage. Der nächstgelegene Strand ist fußläufig in ca 15 Minuten zu erreichen - es empfiehlt sich aber ein Mietwagen um die Insel richtig erkunden zu können. Einkaufsmöglichkeiten für Lebensmittel gibt es in ausreichender Zahl in Form von kleineren und größeren Supermärkten - jedoch ist auch hierfür ein Mietwagen sinnvoll. Das Fahren in Aruba mit dem Auto ist problemlos - man muss nur auf die teilweise schlechten Straßen achten, die teilweise auch nicht asphaltiert und ggf für Nicht Allrad-Kfz ungeeignet sind. Alles in Allem war Camacuri eine sehr schöne Unterkunft abseits vom Massentourismus. Wilfred und auch die Angehörigen an der Rezeption waren sehr freundlich standen bei Fragen immer hilfreich zur Verfügung. Danke für die schöne Zeit !!
