This facility is as advertised,just a few blocks from the beach.We stayed in a small studio with a small two burner stove and fridge.We were provided all the utensils we needed.Overall the accommodation was comfortable.They picked us up and took us back promptly to the airport as well as provided us with a car for our entire stay.Our stay coincided with the event when residents were allowed to pitch their tents on the nearby beach so it was very crowded but (URL HIDDEN) apart from our morning runs,we drove a couple miles to the high rise hotel area where the beach was spectacular.We were hoping to have dined on local dishes our preference being seafood but didn't find much except for the driftwood,restaurant ,aColombian restaurant and a few other places which served typical American dishes.Will definitely return.Thanks Liliana

This place is perfectly located: 10 minutes from the L1 bus stop, 10 minutes from a grocery store, 20 minutes from the Oranjestad bus terminal, and just 2 minutes from a quiet beach frequented by locals. Liliana was super friendly and incredibly responsive via the Airbnb app. Her husband even picked us up and dropped us off at the airport! The room itself is cozy and very clean, with all the necessary amenities: AC, a kitchen, a TV, etc. We would definitely stay here again!

The appartement was just as described and very confortable (thanks to the great AC). Wakeable distance from downtown, the beach and the grocery. Plus the owners are super chill and friendly!

Very nice people excellent care in a dream location

If your in the market for vacationing in Aruba and don't want to spend a lot of money on hotels then Liliana place is the perfect place for a single or double person. Her place is in the perfect location where it's quite and safe. Also, it's close downtown to where the restaurants, shopping, activities, clubs, beaches are located. She's very friendly, quick to respond to what needs you might have or simple as information that you inquire. Her place has A/C, wifi, fan, small kitchen to make some grub, and bathroom. If you ask her she kindly will pick you up from the airport as well which a bonus. I highly suggest renting a car to get around which Lilian has one to offer.

Lilana's place was the perfect stay! The space was a little smaller than anticipated but perfect for us, as we were out and about most of the day. Less than a ten minute walk to a pretty secluded beach with bars and restaurants up and down the main road. A grocery store was nearby as well. Liliana was absolutely lovely, and kind enough to drop us off and pick us up at the airport. A great deal for anyone looking to do Aruba on a budget!

Exactly as pictured. Not luxurious, but you cannot beat for the price and location! As an added bonus to have a mini-kitchen so we could save money by cooking some of our meals. Hostess was very responsive and punctual with replies to inquiries. She also was kind to pick me up from the airport and lend us snorkeling gear. Easy walk to the beach and downtown. A great deal for the space and location!

Liliana's place is just as described. It is walking distance to the beach and downtown. You can also walk to main street and catch the free trolley downtown. The area is safe and quiet. Liliana is always available and is quick to respond to messages. If ever back in Aruba, I will definitely stay at Liliana's! Thanks for being an awesome host!

Quiet neighborhood,affordable dwelling, comfortable sleeping arrangement respectable guest. Try it you'll love it

This place is wonderful, excellent staff and facilities. Highly recommended.

Great place! More space than a 5 star hotel! Best place to stay in Aruba! Walking distance from Oranjestad Downtown where buses can be caught to visit all over the country except Aarok National Park where to go further in a Jeep is necessary. Pool is really nice and you can socialize with other tourists in the living rooms.

Very nice villa, calm and peaceful

This place is absolutely amazing!!! I would definitely come back!

Great place to stay in Aruba :)

Okay place to stay far from the beach and restaurants

Jorge's villa was absolutely amazing! Very clean, comfortable and his staff was superb! Local food within walking distance and convenient taxi service that will take you to the city. So much to do and see. Beautiful villa I definitely recommend!

Beautiful apartment but you must rent car since it is a little removed from the beach. Clean, comfortable and very well equipped. Economical compared to the rest of accommodations considering that everything is expensive in Aruba. 2 very affectionate cats! I recommend it!

Yari and Gunther were such great hosts. It all started in advance with great communication and very quick responses. After my arrival I had a very warm welcome and afterwards they were so thoughtful and try to help you wherever it's needed. Either get to know the island and let you have some tips where to go and also helping you with the bookings. The apartment itself was very clean and in a very quiet area. The bed is comfortable, if you're 6'3" like me you still fit in. You definitely need a rental car to get to the place but only totally recommended if you'd like to explore the island. There are a lot of offroad tracks but you probably able to see 90% with a normal sedan. One place for sure not reachable and you're also not allowed to go to without an all track vehicle is the natural pool. Aruba the one happy island is a good choice all year long. You don't have to be concerned about rainy seasons or bad weather. I've been there End of May beginning of June and had at least 29 degrees Celsius. Thanks again to Yari and Gunther - you're great hosts!

Female | Age: 30 | Travelled solo | No car rental I traveled alone for the first time and I could not have picked a better destination than Aruba but most importantly, a better AirBnB host than Yarimar. I am so grateful and eternally indebted for the kindness, time and patience she showed me. She was extremely helpful in helping me plan activities and pretty much made my holiday. The description in the posting is pretty accurate i.e.: 10min car ride to beaches, close to shops/restaurants, etc. Things to note: 1) As suggested in the posting, rent a car. It's a lot easier. The bus stop is about a 1.2mile walk (I live in in the city of Boston and don't mind walking but when it's 90degrees out, not cool. *pun intended) 2) If you do walk, note that there isn't much room for pedestrians on the side of the road when walking to the main road - so look out for vehicles - the road is newly tarmac so some drivers come speeding down. If you are looking for an affordable vacation, away from the tourist areas, with freedom to explore the island alone or on tours, this is a great option. Yarimar is well connected and can help show you different things to do around the island. I personally wasted no time - I went kayaking and snorkeling on day 1! She has a folder with recommendations to look at in addition to the research you probably would have done on your own. When on vacation on such a beautiful island, you barely spend time in a hotel room. You're there for the sun, sand, food and cocktails. Yarimar's place offers a nice, quiet retreat to rest up and get going the next day. Booking this apartment was one of the best decisions I made. Being on a semi-tight budget, it gave me a lot more freedom to spend money on restaurants, activities (which average about $100) and of course, cocktails. :-) For any ladies out there wondering if you can vacation by yourself in Aruba...? The answer is YES! Aruba is one of the safest places you can go to. The people are warm, kind and helpful. Again, my sincerest gratitude to Yarimar! I couldn't have done it without her. Bless!

Yarimar is an excellent hostess and very committed to help at all times. There's no doubt! What we liked: The apartment is in very good condition and has the need to feel part of the place; is a large space to be a miniature study and tidiness are indisputable. The place is parallel to another apartment ad / same; however it is maintaining privacy. Totally safe. What you can improve: Despite the short distance to everything, the apartment is in a neighborhood very lonely and difficult access routes; therefore it is almost mandatory to rent a car (which is not an option for all) In our case we walk; however we had discomfort with the local dogs and night access is impossible by the absence of light (in these cases had to take taxi). We recommend climbing around current photographs as this was an unforeseen event that changed the pace (and hours) of our trip.

I wanted a quiet vacation that was not surrounded by tourist. This was perfect. The location is 10 minute car ride from downtown or to the beach area. The neighborhood is also walkable to shops, swimsuit, bra shop (they have larger sizes!), ice cream shop, a great arepa restorant, a fruit market and lots of small grocery stores (almond or cashew milk). There is even a bank. These are all the places that I discovered while on my morning or late afternoon walks. There are a lot of neighborhood dogs that basically are pretty relaxed and just go about their business. If they did bark, it was only while I was walking past their house, but after seeing me a second or third time, they barely made any effort. There are dogs all over Aruba. Just mind your business and they mind theirs. Arubus, ($2 US or 3 florans) small blue and white vans, stop along the road at PonTon (5 min walk from flat), They will take you either downtown or to the Holiday Inn (this is the stop to Palm Beach, and Eduardo's Beach Shack, a vegan stand offering matcha and acai bowls, fresh juice and smoothies). To take the bus, stand along the road, preferable in shade, when you see the bus, wave to the driver, he will pull over to the side of the road so that you can get on.) Say hello and ask if they are going to downtown (main bus terminal, shops, etc. or other busses) or hotel area (Holiday Inn, Palm Beach, you can walk or catch another bus to Eagle Beach). Super Food Market (gluten free stuff, is the largest grocey store, about 10 min by car, ($10 taxi) the bus will stop close by, but you have to walk. If taking a bus there, take a taxi on the way back, so frozen stuff or meat stays cool.) The flat itself is located in the back, there is an outside table to sit at and is kept cool by overhead shade. The inside of the flat, has a small electric burner, with two eyes, and a small fridge. There are some pots, a skillet and utensils, cups and plates provided. You can make Turkish coffee in the small pot, buy your own grounds. Instant coffee is provided. I slept well. This is in a neighborhood, so you will hear the sounds of life, dogs barking, bird calls, a rooster crowing. Nothing too crazy. The host Yari is great! If you want an event/activity filled trip, she has suggestions on places, tours, sailing trips, snorking, dancing, resturants...etc. If you want a quiet trip with secluded or quiet spots to check out, she can make suggestions also. She is very respectful of your privacy and very responsive if you have a question. I really enjoyed my stay and walking around the neighborhood in the early mornings when it was cool to explore or at night for ice cream or food runs. Bring...

Yari's place is perfect as a base for exploring Aruba. I highly recommend staying there!

It was a very nice stay on the colorful island "Aruba", our apartment at Yari was perfect for us. However, we recommend a car for the duration of the holiday, as the apartment in Tanki Lender but good 10min. away from the beach. Despite its Yaris apartment is highly recommended ... they are like good insider tips;)

Yarimar took great and the area is very central to llagar to various attractions of the island

Staying at this Airbnb was a delight. Host was easy to communicated with during the entire process and quick to respond. The apartment is in an interesting residential part of Aruba and helped us to get a feel for what it is really like to live there. The place was very clean and comfortable. I personally loved the shower and want to renovate my house just like it it was so nice. Would stay here again and would recommend it to anyone. We loved Aruba and we loved our accomadations.

We, three friends who go to Aruba to kitesurfing, have had a wonderful stay in the apartment Ilse. The apartment lived up to the description. Parking at the door, good working WiFi, spacious apartment which is equipped with everything you would expect from an apartment. Beautiful renovated bathroom and there is no hot water connection, there's no bother at all. Apartment is a spacious garden and a spacious veranda where you can sit and relax after a day of kite surfing. A rental car is necessary as there is to do within walking distance little. Oranjestad and Palm Beach can be reached in about 10min by car. In short, it would Ilse apartment definitely book again!

The apartment was fine. It was clean, the AC worked excellent and everything in the kitchen to prepare a good meal. The central location on the island was a great base. The apartment is quiet and we enjoyed the morning and evening of rest. Ilse and André had some useful tips for us. A light piece? Within a day it was replaced. On the day of departure we were (possibly because it was obviously) all day use "our hideaway. That was delicious. Ilse had also arranged for us to our car a few hours later than agreed, could return. That was top, because our flight was only at night would leave at 19.40. In short, we can certainly recommend a stay at Ilse and André. If we ever return to Aruba, we will happily stay at Ilse and André. Sincerely, Ilse and André, two people who also have had thanks to your fine apartment and your care, a great stay in Aruba, Hugo and Anita

Ilse was a very welcoming and flexible host, and was waiting for me at the gate when I arrived. The neighborhood was conveniently located close to one of the main roads, though there wasn't too much within short walking distance. There is however a bus nearby, and the value was extraordinary.

The place is perfect and loved the privacy. Everything is so clean and you have all the essentials. I thought the shower was gonna bother me because I love my hot showers! Honestly the water was great and refreshing because it is so hot there! Do not have one complaint and would recommend to anyone! Can't wait to visit again!

Lovely place! Loved it. Clean and cozy!

This place is amazing!!! Clean, well equipped, beautiful bathroom and nice porch to sit outside. Perfect location aswell close to shops restaurants and a short drive from the town and the beach. Thanks Ilse we had a great holiday!

The apartment is as is as described Ilse, air conditioning works perfectly in the rooms. And the host was always aware, at the time of arrival and when I got to retire. The bathroom, kitchen, tv, wifi ... everything works perfect !!

I recommend this place to enjoy a great vacation, the site is identical as shown in the pictures, very nice. Lenda in hosting us stayed eight days, of which she was always very aware, recommended places to visit and feed.

Words can possibly explain how great moon was to us she was really sweet she actually took the time out to meet us at our car rental place when we first got there so we wouldn't get lost going to her place and the place was perfect it was in the middle of everything only 15 minutes to get downtown and 15 minutes away from the airport we loved it

Everything was as described. Home is very cute, clean, and in a quiet neighborhood. Stores are nearby but would recommend a vehicle to get around. Very pleased with my stay here and would definitely stay here again :)

Great host! Would definitely stay again.

Moon's place is great. She is very welcoming. She goes the extra mile by providing little extras and essentials in her home for her guests after a long trip, so you can relax on your first day. We stayed in the three bedroom unit, which we found very comfortable. There is air conditioning in all three bedrooms which is perfect at night. We found the kitchen space for preparing meals to be a little on the small side for us (family of 5), although the stove/oven and fridge size were perfect. My kids loved the pool, and couldn't wait to jump in after our day at the beach. The patio area is very relaxing as well. We recommend the rental of a car, because the location is a bit central and can be difficult to reach on foot. It is also quite dark at night, even though we always felt safe. Also, it is about a 20 minute drive from the Eagle Beach and Palm Beach area and the high-rise hotels, which is where the night life is. We had no issues with this because we rented a car throughout our 13 day stay. This was our first airbnb experience, and we would definitely stay at Moon's place again. We really felt that we were on vacation in Aruba!

Perfect!!!! We rented the home for family/friends traveling all the way from Europe for our wedding. My newly husband passed and both him and our friend felt super welcome and happy staying at Moon's place. The home was clean and everybody super friendly and helpfull. My self, I only had contact by phone and airbnb, both also was super easy. Thank you so much!!! I would recommend anybody to stay at your place! Good luck!

Moon was very responsive in her communication toward us during our trip! This location was close to the airport with easy access to many of the attractions and beaches with a rental car. For the price, hospitality and exemplary communication, I would definitely recommend staying at one of Moon's properties.

Very nice place, we really enjoyed a lot our holidays. moon is very kind, she was really nice, recommended us a lot of things to do. I recommend a lot this place, you will be surely satisfied

Great hosts. Rik was great, he picked me up at the airport and showed me all of the hot spots around the apartment. The apartment is in a good location between downtown and the resort area.

My stay at Rik and Karen's place was outstanding. They are both very friendly and polite. The company CFO is always on site. The location was very centric and within walking distance to shopping, restaurants and beaches. Rik picked me up at the airport and was very nice to help me with car rental. The room was very clean and comfortable. All amenities you would want were in there, including washer, dryer, hot tub and bicycles if you wanted to go for a ride. I recommend this place to anyone anytime. Next time in Aruba, I will stay at this place

The host was exceptionally helpful in greeting me at the airport, showing me the important sites in town on the way to the apartment, and stopping off at the supermarket for some basics. He explained the geography of Aruba simply and was great sharing bus info.

Cristina was very kind and helpful. We had no problems checking in and checking out and everything was fine with the home.

Her friend picked up my wife from the airport. Christina was very nice and answered all our questions. The neighborhood was nice.

Cristina is a great hostess, very accomplished and concerned that we had a good would be on the island.

Tina's description is accurate. She was very kind and helpful with our stay.

Location in a residential area, not walk able, if you have no rental car than this is not for you, no shops or anything around, to the beach it would be 30-40 minutes walk through industrial area in hot sun, the airbnb address was not accurate, even after we booked we received directions to an area more south of the displayed area in airbnb, so further away from the beach. The apartment was a little bit run down, could use a renovation, very basic, very few windows, felt like a basement apartment. Cristina was very nice and friendly and drove me to the airport after my friends left earlier with the rental car (we had different flights). Aruba is nice but would stay somewhere else the next time if i have to drive to the beach and shops anyway.

Been using airbnb for 2 years and this was has to be my best because of the fast communication and the effort she puts in to make sure everything goes well

My stay at Cristina's added significantly to the value of my trip to Aruba. Prompt on responses and waiting for me at the door with the keys made the process effortless. The house provided more space than I expected and is conveniently located to every sight a visitor to the island nation of Aruba might want to see. Extremely neat and clean, with uodated appliances, anyone staying there would be pleased with the value Cristina's affords.

Wonderful value for money. Cristina is very special and will make sure you get evrything you need. She picked us up at the airport and gave us a ride to the beach because we were checking in very early. We are so happy we stayed at her place.

Frendsel was very nice but I did not get the room I booked, which was disappointing. The room was clean enough and someone did clean the apartment every day even though I stayed there for one night only.

We enjoyed our stay in Aruba. This place was clean and very close to the airport. Had everything we needed. Everyone was great, Frendsel was very nice and welcomed us with some snacks and a bottle of wine. Luz is the lady who cleans. She was very nice as well. Kept our place clean and even took care of our laundry. They also provided us with a ice chest and folding chairs that we could take to the beach with us. Overall Aruba is a great place with friendly, courteous peaple. We will be coming back in the near future and will be staying with Frendsel.

Beautiful view very clean some updated needed but not a problem really need a car as only two places walkable

The host canceled this reservation 33 days before arrival. This is an automated posting.

Frensel was extremely helpful and accommodating during our stay! The place was clean and had hot water!We loved relaxing on the private deck! Would recommend!

We loved everything about the house! George did an amazing job with it & everything was new & updated. Kitchen was awesome, bathroom awesome. Bedroom was very nice & had great air conditioner. Rest of house had nice fans & we had a nice breeze coming through house. Only thing that I would suggest is maybe a air conditioner in living room but house was very very comfortable. We really liked our stay there. We are recommending it to our friends & family & will stay again.

Janine and Rik were awesome hosts! So warm and helpful, with great directions on getting around the island! The apartment was just as the pictures showed and the outdoor kitchen a plus for us! We would definitely go back again! Thanks so much for being great hosts!!

The stay was very nice. Like a real farmer stay should be, very authentic. Warm welcome.

We had a wonderful stay at Mangooz. This property has five separate units. The main building is where Rick, Janine, and their 2 sons live at one end. The other end has 2 1 bedroom units that share a kitchen, and this 2 betroom unit with it's own outdoor kitchen. There is also a1-bedroom unit with it's own kitchen, detached from the main buidling. Even though there are 5 units on the property, I felt like we had plenty of space and privacy. We could see and interact with other guests if we wanted, usually while at the pool, which is shared with all residents. The pool was very nice, although a little chilly sometimes. Janine and Rick are very welcoming, and helped us feel very comfortable. One of their teenage boys was also really helpful, and even played some board games in the game room with our family. There is a grocery store just at the end of the street for the essentials, but Rick recommended we visit some of the nicer grocery stores that were a 10 minute drive away and much higher quality. Rick was always willing to provide feedback and recommendations for our plans.

The hosts Rick and Janine made Myself and my mother feel extremely welcome! There listing was very accurate and exactly as it was photographed. The neighbourhood was great and it was just mins to downtown to major restaurants and bars. I was extremely impressed by all the hospitality shown towards us and I can't say enough good things about this lovely family. This place was perfect and I highly recommend it to all! If you are looking for a great place in Aruba than look no further!

Janine and Rick Thank you sooo much for your hospitality ... We loved your home ... It was sooo far beyond our expectations... It is so clear that you have put a Lot of love into making your home comfortable for your guests... The pool was beautiful, the room was beautiful... We really enjoyed our stay and your home was a beautiful oasis of calm in busy aruba:)...

Rick and Janine were very welcoming when we arrived! Rick is so full of energy and came to our car and greeted us with open arms and Huge hugs!! He gave us a map and showed us the hot spots to snorkel and the best restaurants to go to! The Mangooz apartment was exactly as it was shown in the pictures. It was clean and very comfortable. I Loved the outdoor kitchen, it had everything we needed to cook some light meals and have our coffee and tea in the morning! The Neighborhood was also very nice and we felt very safe their. It was so nice to meet Spencer the Dog everyday as he came to visit us as if we were his own family! The Swimming pool was absolutely fantastic and very private! We had a great time meeting their boys and hanging out with them in the back Patio. Rick let us borrow the snorkels and goggles and brought us a cooler and beach chairs! If you need HOT, Hot water for a shower you will only get tepid room temperature water. It was not cold but not hot. But if you're outside long enough you will get hot and enjoy that water!! You will need a car to get around Aruba, so the money we saved staying at the Mangooz apartment instead of staying at a Hotel gave us enough to rent a car. We also saved by going to the Grocery store and buying food and making it their in the morning before we left for the day. Overall, the excellence of their hospitality gave us a top 10 experience with the Mangooz home and owners! We will definitely return back to stay there if we go back to Aruba.

We had a perfect time at Janine and Rik's apartment. The pictures match reality completely. Janine and Rik are very pleasant and helpful. thanks for the good advice for dinnerplaces and thanks for the delicious lasagna. Nogmaals bedankt Janine en Rik, we hebben een heerlijke tijd gehad.

Thank you so much for letting us stay at your lovely oasis! We enjoyed our stay very much. It was very comfortable and relaxing. Loved the pool and gardens. Also, having the outdoor kitchen was a plus. Hope to stay again sometime.

Overall great experience. A+ in communication from Sharon, cleanliness, great location, and it's all you need rather than an expensive hotel room.

Sharon was the most amazing host! She was very knowledgeable about the area and gave us great recommendations on local restaurants. She also explained the best ways to get around the island. In addition, the studio apartment was beautiful. Perfect for our needs. Would definitely stay here again!

Sharon was very hospitable. I would definitely recommend her establishment as well. It was clean, quiet and very cozy. We had a great time.

Amazing! Amazing! Amazing! Where do I begin...? The location of Lagoon studios is perfect. It's about $18 flat fee taxi (5 minutes) ride away. It's also walking distance to shops, restaurants, bus stops, marina, casinos and much more. Upon arrival we entered our code and saw a very cozy, clean and modern outdoor area, which we got to enjoy throughout our entire stay. The next morning we were greated with a beautiful smile and a warm hug from Sharon. She also treated us to some delicions criossant and orange juice breakfast while talking us through recommendations and activities to do in Aruba. Our room was exactly as pictured and has everything you would need: blow dryer, garnment steamer, safe, towels, sheets etc. We cooked breakfast every day, and even made dinner, so the kitchen is fully funtional. The common areas were cleaned daily, so the premises are in prestine condition every day. We met so many people during our stay, and even made friends with a european couple from that we will definitely keep in touch with. Sharon cam to say Good-bye to us on our last day, which we very much appreciate. Sharon is just a brigh ray of sunshine, and she truly cares about her guest's experiences. Some restaurants I would recommend: Zeerover, Flying Fish Bone, Eduardo's beach shack. Some activities: The UTV tour is a must do that takes you through the Arikok National Park. The wild side of Aruba is just breath taking. All in all, our vacation was perfect, and a lot of it is thank to Sharon and our wonderful home-away-from-home. HIGHLY RECOMMEND TO STAY HERE.

This was our first trip to Aruba and Sharon made it an incredible experience. She was kind enough to bring us breakfast upon check in and walk us through a map of the island, provide recommendations (food was amazing), and arrange for a rental car to pick us up right in front of the property. The suite was clean and had everything we needed for the beach. We are definitely coming back and will certainly stay with Sharon. Thanks Sharon!

Lagoon Studios is centrally located close to the beach, public transportation, shopping, restaurants, and bars. Sharon, the host is amazing and always available to answer any questions or provide suggestions.

We stayed 10 days in this wonderful studio. We felt very comfortable and Sharon did everything to make our stay as wonderful as it was. The studio is all new, lovely decorated, the bed is very comfortable and everything was very clean. The studio is close to shops, restaurants and the beach, on a quiet street. Sharon is a very, very lovely person, who gave us many tips and helped us renting a car. Thousand thanks for everything and we can recommend this place 100%. 5 ️

Sharon is a supper hostess. She even greeted us with a breakfast. She takes all the time to explain everything about the island. Restaurants, excursions and a lot of tips. The apartments are nicely furnished and have everything you could wish for. Especially the beach towels, beach chairs and coolboxes were supper handy! It is centrally located and within walking distance of the city center. A car is definitely recommended, and this can also be arranged by Sharon. In short, supper studios!

The apartment is excellent, well equipped, offers a lot of space, the beach is just around the corner. Not crowded with tourists like many other places in Aruba.

Was lovely stay! Top that was cleaned halfway through! Highly recommended! Hopi Bon Peter and Leo

The apartment was clean and offered all the amenities of home. It is off the beaten path and offers a real Aruban experience. The hosts, Alessandra and John, were very helpful and available throughout the stay for any recommendations we needed. It is located right across the street from one of Aruba's hidden gems, Mangel Halto beach - with some of the best snorkeling we have ever experienced in our travels! We cannot say enough good things about this place - it was perfect!

This place was amazing, was clean and very comfortable. Alessandra's mother, Mary checked us in. Our flight was delayed about 7hrs and she waited patiently for us to arrive. The beach was across the street with great snorkelling. The snorkelling gear was provided by our host which was a big plus. Would definitely stay and return back. Thanks for everything!

The location is great if you want the quiet side of the island and would rather see the local flare. Marie was very accommodating and was available if I had any questions. Directions are pretty easy getting from the airport to the apartment. Beautiful beach across the way and several others just down the way. The apartment is in the back but no big deal to walk around the front to see the water along with a beautiful sunset. Truly did enjoy my quiet stay!

Hi John- thank you for being their upon arrival to check us in. Best feature was Mangel Halto beach - 450 meters (3 minute walk) bring snorkel gear and water shoes. Thanks again for the hospitality.

Excellent apartment, wonderful decoration and cleaning as well as atencuon, but away from crntro attractions and gastronomy.

Our stay at the Spaanse Lagoenweg 35 was amazing, the waterfront is tremendously beautiful and the snorkeling is great! Going around by car the house is quite centrally located; Boca Grande for kitesurfing is just a 20 minutes away as well as Oranjestad, the pretty town of San Nicolas is just 10 minutes away. We visited the Industry and Community museum in San Nicolas which we can recommend if you like to know more about the history and culture of Aruba. Savaneta self offers beautiful restaurants both formal and informal along the sea. Host Maria gave us a warm welcome and showed us around the house providing all information needed. The next day we met host John; John made are stay extra special, he gave it the local touch! Thank you John & Maria for your genuine hospitality:-)

Everything was simply perfect. I would stay there again without doubt. Thanks Michelle and Anthony

We loved Xanthys, very clean, everything well maintained / new. As soon as we had the a / c on, so it was a relief because it's very hot in Aruba. Michelle both in preparations like Anthony during our stay was sorted all our doubts. Always very alert and responsive in every way. Luxury hosts. We struggled a bit to find the apartment, but that was the only detail against.

Great stay. Very helpful and courteous owner.

Just got back from Aruba with some friends and would choose this place to stay again. The house was very comfortable. We had air and fan, a kitchen and refrigerator where we could cook and store food and a double bed and a sofa bed very large. They also provided umbrella, chairs, towels and heladerita for the beach, which we could use freely and we came barbarian! Anthony, his wife and Michelle were very friendly. Anything we needed we asked them and we solved them. Always with very good disposition !!! Location is a very good location but generally Aruba car is needed (no walking trails and distances are great) above to tour the island (which does not have to stop doing) Anthony, his wife Michelle and also helped us to rent a car and affordable price. A place not stop going !!! Anthony and Michelle Thank you so much !!!

Staying here has been great. Anthony was extremely friendly and helpful! It's a great place if you want a more local experience and don't mind not being right next to all the attractions. It is off the beaten path though which makes it difficult at times to get a taxi since the development is a new area. I would highly suggest paying extra for a car and then you will have no issues. We did not rent one and chose to walk to the eagle beach every day. It was still enjoyable and only takes about 15-20min. You can also hop on the bus from eagle beach to go downtown or to the strip. However, not many people walk on the off roads of the island so keep that in mind. Our airbnb was clean and had all the basic amenities including beach towels and bikes available. Michelle and Anthony were good at staying in touch and answering any questions or inquiries we had. Overall, the experience was very pleasant and enjoyable. The only negative was not having hot water for a shower.

The place is very clean, has all the things you might need to enjoy your vacation. Hosts were also very nice and accommodating. However two things to note (not a big deal) the place is about a 7 minute drive to Eagle Beach. And I would not recommend walking to the beach, so we found having a car was a nessecity. There was also no hot water. Again not a big deal, but my year old daughter did not enjoy showering after the beach. However, I would definitely recommend this place, and would come back to it.

Excellent flat a few minutes drive from nearly everything in Noord or Oranjestad. Quiet neighborhood, though you will awaken to roosters each morning. Didn't bother us. Michelle and Elly were quick to respond to any questions and easy to work with. You would want a rental car if you stay here, but the price was so low that even when adding a car it was a fraction of staying at a resort. Would totally stay again.

This apartment is great value for your money! My boyfriend and I were very pleased with the cleanliness and location of the apartment. Michelle and Anthony are terrific hosts that are always there for you via (SENSITIVE CONTENTS HIDDEN). I found Aruba to be a very safe island and the apartment was only a 5 minute drive from Palm Beach where we spent most of our time. I recommend renting a car from Jay's Rent A Car through Michelle, they were amazing. One morning our car battery died because we had left the lights on the night before and I contacted Anthony and he immediately got in touch with Jay's who arrived in less than 10 minutes of us calling. The food is expensive in Aruba so if you plan on cooking I would do a lot of your shopping at Save A lot, Superfood is a big grocery store with better meat, but Save A lot is great for fruits, veggies and snacks. Another tip is to download the app maps.me if you don't want to rely on data for getting around the island. It only needs your location and works similar to (SENSITIVE CONTENTS HIDDEN) Maps this was a life saver for travelling all over the island. All in all Aruba is a beautiful island with much to explore and Michelle's apartment allows you to do that with ease!

Rob and his partner were kind and welcoming. The apartment was accurately depicted in the listing. I enjoyed my stay.

we had great day in rob's house. he offered us another room, but it has terrace which i can enjoy sun bathing so i prefer this room :) he has three dogs and two cats. i miss their red cat already. rob always ready to help us and recommended good restaurants in aruba. ah! don't forget to visit 'arubaville' which is located just across the road! u can have romantic dinner beside sea and staffs r so kind!

Rob was not on island during our time in Aruba but he was very good with communication every step of the way! We enjoyed the location as it was conveniently located right by the airport and within 10 minutes of the national park, Savaneta, numerous beautiful beaches, and the restaurants/shops by the resorts. The housekeeper was very friendly and showed us the guest house upon arrival. It's a cute house and is equipped with a small kitchen, appliances, television, and a separate bedroom. It was economical and comfortable since we were out enjoying the island and only came back to sleep. There is no hot water and the towels/pillows/sheets were a little worn. The AC worked very well though! The wifi was also a little spotty. Overall I would recommend as its location was convenient and it was at a fair price.

What a wonderful relaxing vacation. Accommodations were well equipped with everything we needed for the week. There were 4 dogs at this location which made us feel like home because we left ours at a kennel for the week. They are very friendly, well mannered dogs. We miss them already. We plan on returning to this location for sure. Arubaville across the road was handy for a cold beverage while watching the amazing sunsets. Friday's have live band and is busy so our suggestion is to go early.

What an amazing trip! I'm not sure where to start we had such a beautiful time with beautiful people. my wife and I both agreed that this was our best vacation and best anniversary yet, of our 10 years of marriage and Rob, his wife and family made it the best Arubian experience of many more to come! They gave us total privacy since we were out adventuring the island from sunrise to beyond sunset every day of our stay. We were even allowed to stay extend our stay by a day since our flight was cancelled due to snow which delayed our arrival by one day! Can't wait to come back and mingle with the locals and eat their food and food trucks. We highly recommend you stay here and tell customs your staying at "Solo apartment "

Rob and Marjorie are wonderful!! Such hospitable hosts, they made sure I felt welcomed and had everything I needed. Offered to drive me to the grocery store, made coffee in the morning, and gave suggestions for the island. The room was great- separate from the main house, with it's own bedroom, bathroom, living room with cable tv, and kitchen. Air conditioned! Pool was right there, with towels and lounge chairs. Very comfortable accommodations. Best if staying here to have a rental car, as there is just one restaurant across the street (Arubaville- tasty food, happy hours, live band on Fridays), and while it right by the lagoon, it is not by the beach. Only downsides- The house is right by the airport, so there is a lot of plane noise during the day. Also, many mosquitoes, so bring bug spray! I had a great experience here, highly recommended!

What a lovely place and warm reception we found here. Fine own place, with everything you need, up to and including kettle, toaster, piles of towels and beach towels and everything to it. We were our own adapter for 110 forget to 220 V, and it was settled quickly by the landlord. Friendly people, nice house with a lovely bed, good AC. Three friendly dogs who like a stroke, but not intrusive. Totally a place to feel at home and to have their own place in Aruba.

My boyfriend and I stayed at Contentment for 3 nights. Rob was a very attentive, friendly host during our time there. For the price, this place is great! It is basically a small guest house/cottage with an equipped kitchen, bathroom, living room and bedroom. The shower had good pressure, and the AC worked like a dream. Rob lives right next door and he certainly gave us our privacy. The restaurant directly across the street was one of the nicest ones I had been to during my week in Aruba. You should definitely eat there during sunset! However, there were a few things I noticed during my stay that are luckily easily fixable. The place feels a bit worn-in: the towels, though cleaned, were sometimes stained, the shower curtain and toilet seat need to be changed out, and the couches are due for a good steam cleaning. At night, I felt that the white curtain that covers the front of the apartment was too translucent if you had the lights on inside, so a less see-through curtain might be better. I still recommend this place especially if you will be out all day and you need a quiet place to crash!

Amazing!! I totally recommend this place. It's located in a calm neighborhood, the studio is cozy and well equipped if you want to cook, its very clean, it has a nice pool. We had a wonderful stay here. Everything was perfect.

Friso was there onsite to greet me and go over the accommodations. The property was quiet yet inviting. The neighborhoods are not like the U.S. however, they are friendly and welcoming to travelers. I would definitely stay at the same property during my next visit to Aruba. I would recommend renting a car. I did and it made the travel experience in Aruba all the better.

An excellent place to meet Aruba, the apartment has everything you could need to rest. Also Renting a car is a good idea because you'll take at least 10 or 15 minutes to reach the nearest beach ... and certanly you dont want to miss your water, ice and beers in the beach

We're a month into the complex (you) Ruby and Robbert stayed and it was delicious! The complex is centrally situated on the island, although a hire car or a "must" in Aruba. Robbert was far away so we mainly had contact with Ruby. This was sometimes a challenge because Ruby speaks only Spanish but Robbert was always a (SENSITIVE CONTENTS HIDDEN) accessible if needed. We are staying in apartment Ellis and Ruby, and in the house with three bedrooms. Ellis studio has the best location right on the pool. Ruby apartment is located directly behind and has two separate bedrooms. The house with 3 bedrooms has a truly breathtaking view. For this house you have to be a good walker has seen the entrance stairs. We have both had very positive interactions with Ruby as Robbert. I would recommend this apartment complex measuring highly recommend if you are away from mass tourism still want a very comfortable place. The pool is every few days perfectly cleaned and inspected, the beautiful garden is well maintained and Ruby and Robbert are right there for you to ask. We had a lovely time!

The landlord gave himself that it was an old apartment was located at the entrance, and that he may be a more expensive room had been so welcome we were alone as we pay even more money. We want our money back

great space for the money. Wifi not so much

Elaine and Gerard were super welcoming and kind. We love the place and recommend it to everyone.

Quiet area, Gerard and Elene friendly and happy to help. Great outside siting area. Overall 4 out of 5, being a bit far for cyclist like me.

This is a beautiful place to stay in Aruba. Everyone should pick this emplacement!

We would be very happy to return, and most likely will this next winter.

100% recommended, wonderful hosts, meets and exceeds expectations! The apartment is very comfortable and effectively offers everything they offer. It is close to some restaurants, supermarkets and the public transport station. The area is very safe too and if I return to Aruba I would definitely stay there again. Thank you so much for everything!

Gerard and his wife are excellent hosts, they looked us up and drove to the airport, always with a friendly smile and willing to advise us on the best places on the island. Super comfortable and close stations Arubus department. Super recommend to visit :)

We've had a great stay at Gerard and Elain's place! Our hosts are super friendly and helpful. We really appreciate that they went 'above and beyond' to make us feel at ease just like home, not to mention giving us a lift couple times. The appartment had everything that we needed, all in all it was quite sad to leave... will miss the hosts and place for sure!

Words cannot describe the hospitality of Gerard and Elaine! It was our first time traveling to Aruba and with their help, we got to fully enjoy our stay. The appartement is suitable for Aruba, because you'll be spending most of your time on the beach or doing some excursions. The location is close to the main boulevard where all the action happens and not tht far away from other attractions. A car rental is recommended to facilitate transportation, Gerard and Elain can assist with finding that as well! Thanks Gerard and Elaine!!!
