Truly a hidden gem worth finding!
Wow! Was little nervous heading to our stay heading past island dump and being located behind the airport. Closer we got that disappeared and when we opened the door and walked in first impression was amazing and went up as we checked place out! Clean very clean! Fully furnished apartment, Tranquility had us surrounded, truly off the beaten path, amazing restaurant within walking distance. Not much car traffic, boat dock with little hidden cove for swimming was nice. Even snorkeled little bit. Enjoyed our evening watching sunset with the local 4 legged hospitality club. Reluctant to give a 10 star review due to wanting to keep this gem hidden due to being selfish, they are truly worth the stay! Definitely would stay again and planning on it

I did a lot of planning for this trip. What I loved most about this property (and what I was looking for), it was off the beaten path and its exclusivity. The private beach access really gave us the chance to decompress without the sensory overload that the resorts had going on. The location of the property itself was pretty central in relation to the downtown area and the southern part of the island. Close to the airport, but wasn't overly noisy. We felt safe. The room was so clean and well set up. Angelique communicated all the quirks and how to's which was very helpful and with all transparency, there are 3 property dogs with tags that are so loving, it was hard to leave them! The Fish House restaurant is in walking distance, very tasty!!! *Side note: I greatly recommend renting a car if you stay here. We got a package through Expedia. We went everywhere and had a blast on the island!!

This property is spacious and very clean. Modern kitchen pretty well equipt. I love the plunge pool it was so refreshing and they have an outdoor shower to rinse the sand off before you go inside. Location is convenient to everything if you have a car. You can take taxis around if you don’t have a car. The owner is extremely helpful and has great communication. You just text her with any questions or whatever you need and she answers very quickly and is fast to resolve any issues or offer any help. She has very friendly dogs that live in the property. They are sweet and will escort you to the nearby Fish House restaurant which has absolutely delicious food! I would definitely stay here again. This property has a private dock with Shade for sitting out and watching the boats. There is a kayak to use and a closet with a cooler and beach chairs. My husband and I felt very comfortable here. We will come back. Excellent property. Secluded and private if you don’t want the crowds at the busy hotels this place is wonderful.

Our stay was amazing! We got to experience quiet atmosphere without a lot of people around. We were close to everything without feeling overwhelmed from the amount of people. The private pier for relaxation was amazing. And to top it off, we felt at home with the dogs around.

If you wNt a place away from the craziness of the city this is definitely the place. Very quiet and centrally located amongst the beaches. As a bonus there are 3 super cool dogs on the property that are very well behaved and very sweet and wanted to bring everyone of them home. I will definitely be returning.

At very last minute we were told there were 3 dogs on the property. And because it was unannounced, we were forced to pay for the first day even accommodating the premises for 30 minutes to make other reservations which let alone costed thousands of dollars more. Bad communication and poor customer service.

It was wonderful for a couple of nights of a "staycation"! It is a bit away from tourist spots, but that is exactly what we wanted - it is very peaceful and tranquil and a short drive to the hustle and bustle. Super clean! If i had to pick something for improvement - smoking is allowed it seems on terraces and cigarette and cigar smoke made it's way up to our balcony. We will definitely stay here again!

Angelique & Esther’s property exceeded my expectation due to its location and cleanliness. The location is not one of the prime places you’ll find in the island of Aruba, but I find it easily to navigate with all my needs. From the property -4 mins to the airport -it’s 20 mins going south, -another 20 mins going north -and 16 mins drive going to the east. It is a modern unit with shared pool, parking lot, and lounging area in the beach. Lots of amenities including floaters, kayak, snorkeling gear, beach towel and kids sand toys. This property can accommodate all genres tbh. It’s spacious and lots of storage. One star deducted because there’s a lot of dog’s poop in the parking lot. The beach area is not totally the one in mind. It’s only good to unwind and to watch the sunset or planes. Highly recommended!!!
