4 Bed Luxury Villa , Private Pool, Short Walk To Ritz And Marriott Beach !

Hello Travelers...
Our 2000 square foot 4 bedroom 4 bathroom villa features high 14 foot cathedral ceilings with main living area having a open view design.
There is plenty of light with large windows and all glass exterior doors.
The villa sits on a spacious 8000 square foot property at the end of a small cul-de-sac and is just a few minute walk to the Ritz and Marriott beach.
From our front gate to the Marriott/Ritz Carlton Roundabout/circle is 750 meters / 4/10 of a mile... Walkable in about 7-8 minutes.

The outside area features a spaceously sized 350 square foot pool that is 4-5 feet in depth.
There are 2 in water benches that accommodates 4 people comfortably and with steps near by 6 people can enjoy a drink while sitting in the pool.
The pool is also raised 1 foot above the ground which provides impromptu seating all around the pool.
The pool is surrounded by a spacious 1000+ square foot high end coral patio which your bare feet will greatly appreciate.
Adjoining the coral patio and a step up is another 1000+ square foot Bavarian field stone patio (also bare foot friendly) covering most of the backyard area.
Featured in this patio area is a large tropical styled gazebo area that houses an impressive 20 foot L shaped polished concrete wet bar complete with electric outlets.
With hotel quality bar stools and grill its the perfect place for your outdoor dining.

The outdoor design and spaciousness of the property offer our guests several areas for gathering.
In addtion to the bar area in the back corner there are 3 large tropical styled palaps (think permanent super large beach umbrella with palm leaves)
and the coral patio along the pool area, and patio furniture just out the back doors that adjoins the dining room.
Two of the palapa sits on an area of soft grass.
The rest of the property is accessible either on a stamped concrete walkway or our customized stepping stones. To complete the tropical feel there are
100+ plants some amongst the 25+ clay pots. Hopefully the accompanying photos enhance the description.
Our photos are updated regualry and include the month & year it was taken in the caption.


We have our own on call chef. Chef Jon specializes in authentic Aruban cuisine.

We can make vehicle rental reservations for you. Most of the time we are able to get a better price than going through the big name companies.
A majority of our guests have booked the vehicle rentals through us.

There is an additional per night guest fees for more than 6 guests.

Your own private resort!
We loved our stay at Jim and Tamera's house! It is clean, spacious and close to restaurants and access to the beach! We loved exploring Aruba, but also loved staying home and enjoying the pool and numerous seating areas! Jim and Tamera are the BEST hosts and go above and beyond to make your stay comfortable! They are very helpful with restaurant recommendations, car rentals etc. Stop scrolling, you have found your place!

Perfect Family Stay in Aruba
Our family had a perfect week in Aruba. This property is beautiful and very well maintained. Everything was just as shown in the description and pictures. There were 7 adults in our group - 3 couples and 1 single. We were very comfortable in the house, there was plenty of room for all of us. We enjoyed being in a house during our stay instead of a hotel/condo. The pool and grounds are so wonderful - very enjoyable - we enjoyed spending time out by the pool and the bar area each day. The home is a couple of blocks off of the main street with all the hotels. It is a nice neighborhood and close to everything. We had rental cars which made getting around easy- parking was never a problem. We visited a couple of different beaches. Our favorite spot for public beach access was at Coco Loco on Eagle Beach. It is a beach bar/restaurant but they also rent chairs and umbrellas for the day. It is absolutely a beautiful spot on the beach and away from the crowds and activity on Palm Beach. Jim, Tamara and Lis are great - the communication both before and during was great. Anytime I had a question leading up to our stay, Jim or Tamara always responded quickly with information. Our week was perfect!

Awesome Location
This was our first stay in Aruba and this VRBO. Owners gave us all the information and tips we needed to have a great stay. The location was perfect, close to beaches and restaurants. This was perfect for three couples, each had our own bathroom. The outdoor was perfect for morning coffee and a swim in the private pool. We had a few questions and property manager and owner responded quickly. This is a great alternative to hotels since it is private and we saved money making breakfast and lunch. Towels and beach towels were provided which was great. Not sure if a car is always needed but this week was very hot so we didn’t walk. However if cooler we might have. We would definitely stay here again!!

Nice stay
House was conveniently located, had a great pool and owner was very helpful. The kids bedroom with the bunk bed is on the opposite side of the house just so parents understand. Wasn’t a big deal for our older kids. Pool was great after hot days at the beach. House had everything as listed. Would stay again.

We had a great time in Aruba, the hosts were very responsive and we had everything we needed to cook on the few nights we did. The house was big enough for the six of us to spread out and we enjoyed the outdoor area after a long day at the beach. Thanks for letting us enjoy your house for the week!

Beautiful home, great location!
This home was perfect for my family. Ideally located and private. Easy access to town, airport and local beaches. Started our day off sitting around the pool with breakfast and ended the night taking a dip. The hosts were wonderful and very responsive. Sharing this with friends who plan to go. Will definitely be back!

Great Property for Family Enjoyment
As we entered, we immediately noticed the gorgeous landscaping and amenities, including the beautiful pool. The security of the property was reassuring. Going into the home, we loved the open floor plan. It was very clean and tidy. The home felt spacious yet cozy at the same time. The bedrooms were comfortable and we appreciated the doors separating the sleeping quarters from the living area. As Americans, we missed a full-size oven but were able to use the provided countertop convection. We loved staying in your home, enjoyed our family time immensely, and look forward to the possibility of staying again in the future.

Had a great week
Our first time to Aruba, 3 couples in their 50’s & 60’s, 2 girls in their early 20’s. Everyone enjoyed the property and the location. Quiet safe neighborhood but close enough to walk to where the action is. The property is just as described and the host’s are great. Helpful when you need them and not around when you don’t. Will do this again!

GORGEOUS home in Aruba, PERFECT location
This was our first family stay in Aruba. We absolutely loved the home and the outside was just gorgeous. I would rate this a 10 star!! It is in the perfect location and only minutes to the beach. Jim & Tamara were by far the best hosts and we can't thank them enough. We have rented many VRBO homes and this is by far the best ever!! We will look no further and so glad we found the perfect home when we come back!! Thank you again Jim & Tamara for allowing us to share your PIECE OF HEAVEN!!
