“Amazing bliss in paradise” We had an amazing time at aruba Beach Chalets during the Christmas time. Best things: - Very large, spacious 2-floor condo - Just steps from the water / private beach - Quiet (very quiet!), peaceful atmosphere - Friendly, extremely thoughtful owners and on-site manager - Romantic moonlight nights - Minutes from the airport and amenities (groceries, restaurants, etc.) When we arrived, we were extremely impressed with the size of the unit and proximity to the water. It is one of those rare condos with the ocean view just feet away! You can't beat this, really!! The owners left us Holiday goodies including tasty wine, snowman toy (for our baby!), and a nice letter with great descriptions of everything we could do. They were very responsive to all our questions before / during / after the stay. We are very happy with the management overall. What we recommend: - Visit the Baby Beach (just minutes away, beautiful calm waters) - Visit ancient "rock park" - Visit Orangestad Port open-air market shopping - Visit the California Lighthouse - Grill on the deck - Rent-a-car (to enjoy the stay, reserve your car in advance)

“Zen Like Dream...” We did not actually stay at the property, but rather took a tour to see it before our next vacation in Aruba. On the simplest level, the place looks amazing -- very spacious, beautiful simple furnishings... it just feels relaxing. Feels like the perfect space to connect with family and friends -- modern hip inner city hotel meets beach front property. It has 5 bedrooms and 1 room that you can make into a 6th. Unreal views -- I can't wait have some icy cold Amstel Brites on the Veranda and watch the sunset. Things I am looking forward to: 1) The views 2) My wife is amped that there are two stainless frig/freezers and a large contemp kitchen 3) The swim up bar at the pool 4) Flat screen TVs everywhere 5) Wifi so I can stay connected to the unfortunate ones who won't be with us. 6) The awesome dinning room (why can't my dining room look like this?) 7) Bathrooms were spacious, clean and "Spa Like" 8) OK, the list is getting too long -- but I can't wait. All prior trips to Aruba for 20 years I have stayed in hotels -- I think staying in this place will really notch it up a level.

“Absolutely perfect!” We just spent 9 days at Le Chateau. It was absolutely perfect. One block from a lovely beach which was almost completely empty, two blocks from the Renaissance, and easy walking distance to downtown (groceries, shopping, etc). The apartment was huge and very clean. The kitchen was furnished with everything we needed. My one concern was that there would be road noise but I was pleasantly surprised to find it very quiet. The home is built of concrete and we couldn't even hear other guests. "Fred", the host, was extremely friendly and helpful. One thing to remember: this is a vacation rental, not a condo. It does not have a pool and does not have daily maid service. It is a comfortable, fully furnished apartment in a gracious host's home. I highly recommend it to someone looking for an independent experience.

“We can't wait to go back!” We've been home from aruba for 4 days and we already miss it so much! The hospitality of Luis and Karen can not be topped! They added such a personal touch to our vacation. Abb is in a great location, especially if you like to snorkel/swim. The accommodations are simple but very clean and met any needs that we had for our stay, including snorkel gear and a hammock! There were enough kitchen tools/appliances to make simple meals for breakfast and lunch. We enjoyed dinner out at some fabulous aruban restaurants. We rented a car, which is must if you stay in this location, and found it very easy to get from aBB to both Baby Beach as well as in to town and to the North side resorts/beaches. We went to the resort beaches 1 day and were so happy to be able to leave and go back to our quiet cabana by the sea. The only problem that we had were the mosquitos that were out in the morning. It made it somewhat hard to sit outside on our porch to enjoy the breeze, but, we just took a couple of chairs and walked right across the street to the ocean front. We truly enjoyed our stay and can not wait to return!

“Perfect location with perfect weather” For the 2nd time in 2 years, we came back to Wacamaya Condos. The location, just blocks from the beach is the perfect distance to escape the tourists, but close enough to enjoy the beach. This unit is well equiped with everything that we needed to survive 2 weeks in aruba. The unit has a king bed that is as comfortable as home, a modern and functional bathroom with a huge shower plus a kitchen with granite countertops with usable work space for prepping meals. The common area with pool and gardens is clean and attractive and never seems busy or crowded. Love this condo and will definitely rent again at Wacamaya and from Dave and anita, very attentive managers that strived to make our stay wonderful.

“Quiet, close to the beach, great area, friendly hosts.” Our stay here was very pleasant. The studio has all that you need - including air conditioning, a kitchen will plates, utensils, soap, etc. It is cozy, yet spacious. The location was excellent - very close to the beautiful beaches and attractions, yet, it was more private and quiet than being at a resort filled with so many people. We felt very safe here. The studio was very clean. The hosts were so friendly and kind. We enjoyed talking with them. I highly recommend staying here.

“Fantastic Holiday” This Villa is amazing place to stay if you want to really enjoy your visit in Aruba... (owned by two very nice,friendly and helpful Europeans) Great location,close to everywhere,congenial and affordable---- Recommended!

“great time” This was our first trip to aruba and we had a great time. Cpvr was great. we did rent a car. But know when you go, there are going to be fees to pay when you check in. we paid about $150.00 for 7 nights above your rental fee. Which we were not told about or did not understand it would be that much. But we loved the place, it is older but they keep it in great shape. It was very clean and the staff were great. We will be back for sure. Also if you can bring any of your food for the kitchenette. It is wise as the prices are very high at the grocery stores and eating out.

“AWESOME STAY” The lodging accommodations were excellent! The staff was amazing! The pool and jacuzzi were an added touch! Everything from the ease of check-in to booking tours through the members lounge, made our stay FANTASTIC! We paid for a 2br 2bth and we got exactly what we asked for....AND A WHOLE LOT MORE!

“relax in Aruba” Villa Punta Salina is the perfect place to stay for low-maintenance travelers who want to experience more than the crowded resort areas of Aruba. Located in a quiet neighborhood 10 minutes walk from the resorts or bus stop, the bungalows of Villa Punta Salina are small but well equipped. There's also a pool to cool off in after a hot day seeing the Aruban sights. Unlike commercial resorts, Villa Punta Salina is privately owned by Olivier and Mily, who are gracious hosts and eager to share their love of Aruba. We would definitely return.

“A home away from home.” Aruba is an easy place to relax, explore, and enjoy the amazing beaches and views. Wacamaya Condos was the perfect place to stay. It was so well kept and very inviting. I would highly recommend and plan on staying there again.

“Awesome Place to Hideaway!” My husband and I returned to Aruba for our 15 year anniversary. Can't say enough how wonderful the place was! Not only was the place great but the owner Kris is top-notch! He was always available if we needed anything. The top condo has a great view of the ocean. That is where we liked to be at night after dinner. Just relaxing. I really had no worries as this place had a pool and was close to great restaurants and beaches. We would definitely come back!
