Sero Colorado, also known as The Colony, is an authentic natural area on the south-eastern tip of the island, far from major hotels and tourist hustles on the north-west side of the island. The shallow Baby Beach with a beautiful snorkel entrance to the reef is very popular and also features amenities like a beach tent with simple kitchen and bar. Rodgers' Beach is popular with the true calm seekers. On both beaches are palapa's and trees, which provide shade.
Boca Grandi is a beautiful bay with beach and a hefty surf, where it is ideal swimming for some more practiced swimmers. This bay is located at the entrance of Sero Colorado a few minutes away and if you want to surf wind or kite you will be advised here! There is a kitesurf school which offers reasonable prices for private lessons. With a little luck you will find our Aruban World Highwinds Champions!

Perfect Property in Ideal Location
Ever had a stay somewhere where it was SO good, you don't know where to start the review? This is the challenge I have. So, I'll start with the owners.Cees and Ankie are the most gracious hosts you will find. We arrived later than planned due to a late flight. We grabbed some groceries (which they offered to pick up for us if we wanted). Ankie was there to meet us, walk us through the property and answer any questions we had. She even cooked the frozen pizzas we bought as I had forgot the property didn’t have an oven. The property itself is a perfect size for a family of 4. It comes with everything you'd need: silverware, dishes, pots, pans, glassware, towels, beach towels, etc. They have WiFi in the property which has plenty of bandwidth to handle multiple devices and a TV that has a decent amount of channels. There are AC units in each of the rooms which cool it down quickly and nicely. If you're looking to experience the REAL Aruba, you can't beat this location. It's in a quiet neighborhood and only a short 4-minute walk to Roger's Beach or a 3-minute drive to Baby Beach (you can walk this too). You WILL need a car at this property.Bottom line: If you're looking for a quiet, comfortable, perfectly located place with very responsive and kind owners...look no further. If I ever make it back to One Happy Island, I will be staying here again.

Cees and Ankie were very easy to communicate with for making arrangements prior to our visit. Cute little home with very easy access to the beaches. Supplied us with beach necessities and snorkeling equipment. Enjoyed our stay.

Great Property
My family of 4, 2 kids under 4, stayed here a week. We loved our time here. The property was perfect for our needs. It is well away from the crowded tourist areas. It is very close to Rodgers beach which was all but deserted while we were there, perfect for the kids. We even found that the prices on this end of the island were cheaper than up around the tourist areas. Cees and Ankie were great hosts and always ready if we needed something. We even met the wild donkeys that roam the neighborhood! Could not recommend this spot more!
