A True Oasis
Marcia graciously rented to my family. This location was perfection. Right across from Mangel Halto where there are plenty of entrances into the turquoise water. This location is very close to a couple of outstanding restaurants Marina Pirata and La Tavola (highly recommend). We rented a jeep and were minutes away from Baby Beach, Arikok Park, and many other fun places to see. This house has everything to make your vacation relaxing. Beach chairs, cooler, water toys, and a fully stock kitchen with everything you may need to cook. The pool was a relaxing way to end your day or evening. We do love that Marcia has partnered with Nine Lives Rescue center so it was fun meeting Papo the outdoor cat who loves snuggles and any left over fish. We highly recommend this place to stay and will be back! The communication with Marcia was easy and she was very quick to respond. You will not be disappointed. I also recommend Kulture Cafe in San Nicolas (5 minute drive) for breakfast and visiting the art murals. This location is close to all tourist attractions but also a way to live like an Aruban and away from the tourist area. The beds were also amazing and we slept harder than we had in a long time. A truly relaxing vacation and wonderful place to explore.

Ocean front with ZERO crowds. Incredible Stay! You will love this rental!
The reviews don’t do this place justice, it was an amazing experience. This is an ocean front house! The house has plenty of room, lots of available privacy, a fenced yard, an inground pool and a rooftop deck perfect for watching the sunrise. We traveled with our three sons, (17, 16 & 14). There are 4 bedrooms with 6 beds (+ a pullout) and 3 bathrooms. The kitchen is well stocked and has an unobstructed ocean view, which made dining a pleasure. The ocean is directly across the street from the house. You are literally 20 yards from dipping your toes in the ocean. This is NOT a touristy location, which makes it very appealing because there are no crowds, like none. While the ocean is directly across the street, the bottom is not smooth sand so be sure to bring rubber bottomed water shoes. There is a sandy beach about two blocks from the house (Mangel Halto Beach) that NEVER had more than 10-15 people visiting. There were several times we were the only ones in the ocean. The snorkeling in the area was phenomenal and there was lots of equipment Marcia keeps at the house. Marcia was able to connect us with a rental car we used for two of the nine days we were there (highly recommend it). Two blocks from the house is hands down the best dining experience I’ve ever had, La Tavola. We ended up eating there 5 times (4 times for breakfast). The DePalm Island ferry is 1 mile from the house, we walked, and it was super easy. We loved the stay and will definitely be back.

Just Beautiful
Once again, Marcia’s home did not disappoint. The home is fully stocked, plenty of room both inside and out, a view to die for, clean, and her responsiveness is second to none. After coming to Aruba for over 30 years, there is no other place that we would stay at. Marcia continues to upgrade the home, adding shade by the pool area as well as others. Marcia has renters for life with us!

Great location away from the touristy spots!
Really enjoyed the location and proximity to great snorkeling. Pool is great and house was so comfortable. Owner very responsive and great to work with. Great restaurants (La Tavola) nearby and a much more local experience. Also close to the airport and 25 minutes drive to the west beaches.

Wonderful Stay in Aruba!
We absolutely loved our stay! The house was stunning, spotless, spacious and equipped with all the amenities you could want. Beautiful sunsets, views of the ocean and access to swimming and the beach. Many stores and restaurants close by. We really appreciated Marcia's accessibility, communication and hospitality. Perfect spot for a memorable family getaway! We look forward to returning soon.

Fabulous home and wonderful experience
I couldn’t have asked for a more perfect setup for my family! The house is big and beautiful, and even better than the description. Marcia was extremely communicative and wonderful to work with. Also, very important to me was the safety of my small children, and the door to the pool has a lock with a key so we could keep it locked with the key removed, giving us big peace of mind. The office room was a nice surprise, about baby could sleep in there in the pack and play provided.
Marcia thought of everything; coolers, toys, life vests, chairs and more! Even a bathroom scale so I could double check the weight of my luggage before leaving. If I return to Aruba, I would definitely stay here, but for even longer!

Beautiful home, super host, but be aware
The house was beautiful and spacious with many amenities. Our host was always available but not intrusive…everything you want in a home away from home.
Two different items you need to be aware of however.
1 ) Except for the showers, there is no other hot water. Not in the sinks and not in the kitchen for washing out dishes. (No dishwasher) Cold shaves and less than sterile glasses are weird.
2) The bedrooms are air conditioned but the large living area where you will spend the most time is not. Little warm at times.
Once you learn to live with these two items, the house is great.

Awesome Vacation Home!
This home was a wonderful place to stay with our family. Everyone had plenty of space to relax. The pool was so great for our 18 month old granddaughter to play in the shallow end. She loved it! We were able to enjoy making a few meals at home as well as walk to local restaurants. The view of the ocean from the front patio was amazing and we were able to swim and snorkel right out front.

Awesome with a capital A
What an awesome place, location, and sunset views! The snorkeling across the road in front of the house is worthy and if you swim out to the dock on the island, the snorkeling is even better. We left a couple of life jackets at the place and they have 2 sets of masks and fins at the house. Also, there's one of the best restaurants I've experienced called la tavola within walking distance but you must have a reservation. You have to eat there, it's a must do, trust me. The flying fishbone and the marina restaurant close by are also worthy. The hostess was also very quick to respond to any and recommendations and the house is very spacious with a nice pool area. If you're the type of person who wants to skip the resort bs and experience the local culture then this is the place for you. We rented our vehicles from more 4 less and the experience was flawless.

Wonderful property with beautiful views
The description of this property doesn't do it a justice. First, it's very big, with some additional rooms like the office, and with great roof area. Second, it has absolutely amazing views from front rooms, with beautiful turquoise water just 20 meters from the house. Finally, hostess was very responsive, answered all our questions, and what is absolutely amazing, helped us to find emergency doctor when our 4 year old got ear problem.
Thank you marcia, we had a great stay

Great location and fantastic property, with a wonderful host.
We loved this house, the location, the spaces (indoor and outdoor), and the amenities! Marcia has thought of everything in this house. The kitchen is well stocked, the pool area is so relaxing, and the front yard is awesome to watch the sunset!
This end of the island is fantastic for visiting less commercialized beaches, and a laid back vacation.
Mangel Halto was great for snorkeling. We visited Baby Beach, and ate ate at Flying Fishbone. All were super convienent to this house. But to make it better we were able to take chairs and floats that were provided by Marcia and in the house.
The AC worked well, and we all stayed comfortable, the large appliances in the kitchen allowed us to cook and have food with us, we shopped at Rey Hing. We enjoyed the layout for lounging, and for family games at night.
This was a wonderful stay and we would definitely return!
Thanks so much!
