"A very unique experience. It met my expectations. Owner was very accommodating. Need a car, but then everything is very close. Nice pool, nice private outside areas as well as common areas. Extremely affordable. Keep in mind , I stayed in the Gypsy wagon Queenie for 2 weeks, it’s small but it has what you need. They also have an outdoor kitchen area where we occasionally cooked our own breakfast. Owner gave us a dozen eggs . I look forward to going back again "

"The property was beautiful! Easy access and perfect location. "

"Couldn’t have been any better!Perfect private setting- with easy access to tranquil water! Shared property amenities abundant!Absolutely enjoyed our stay and look forward to returning!"

"We loved the home and being right on the beach was such a nice experience. The property manager Ton was very helpful and accommodating, we loved having the 10 person van available, we used it everyday. it was easy to drive and maneuver. I personally liked not being surrounded by hotels and resorts. I liked the quieter residential area. By staying here you get a closer look at Aruban life which I appreciate. Locals are all friendly. Enjoyed the reef in our backyard and seeing the local wildlife; iguanas, pelicans, small lizards and birds. Some of our group did some snorkeling right there and really enjoyed seeing all the many species of fish. Currently the home next door is being renovated there was a few days of unpleasant noise, thank goodness it di not continue all week. "

"First off, having ensuite bathrooms is always a win. The house is absolutely beautiful. The owner is very nice. Thank you for a beautiful time in Aruba."

"great staff, property very close to beach, great views "

"I brought my daughters for a special spring break experience with the intent to be away from tourist traps and really get to experience Aruba. The home is beautiful and even better than advertised and the host was available without being overbearing. The hammock was my favorite nap space . The only note would be that the beds are very firm and a few more blankets and pillows could go a long way. "

"no hot water but a great spot across street from cool beach"

"Ingrid was a wonderful host! She was very helpful in answering all my questions and was very friendly and warm. Her breakfasts were varied and delicious! Plus the room I stayed in was very comfortable and clean. It had a fan and AC which made the stay very comfortable. Her place was also located next to Arikok national park, which was very convenient. I highly recommend Ingrid’s place for a stay in Aruba!"
