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.

Decent Place to Stay for the Price
This is a pretty good place to stay for the price. Our host Daniel was very easy to communicate with before and during the stay. He even made a couple recommendations for a local place to eat (Dasha, which was VERY good for the price) and a place to tour. Overall, the house was well appointed. Plenty of bath and beach towels, beach chairs, coolers, kitchen supplies, etc. We cooked several meals at the house and it had everything we wanted (pots, pans, baking sheets, baking utensils, storage containers, etc.). It also has a nice gas grill that was SUPER clean and worked really well. We've stayed at several different houses on the island and found the pool was smaller than most. But, it was still big enough for seven of us to cool off at one time or just the five kids play their games. The outside furniture was in good shape as well. The days we were there it was windier than usual, but the back porch area had a wind screen and that helped calm things in the porch area. The house was cleaner than most others we've stayed in, but I think it may have been a little newer as well, so it hasn't had time for the tile grout to discolor or the caulk to fade. The only downside was the master bathroom shower didn't have HOT water; it was warm, but not HOT. They also expect limited water and electric usage. They document the meter readings and check them before you leave. We did not go over the water, but did a little on electricity, so be conscience of consumption.

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.

The villa and property was exactly as advertised - and simply wonderful overall. Jose and his team were accessible from the day we first inquired about staying at the property and continued to be most attentive - very important to us. Can't say enough about how positive the experience was - we'll be back again and again. Thanks for the delightful holiday!
