Rental unit in Oranjestad-West
4.86 out of 5 average rating, 160 reviewsThe blue door apartment
We had an amazing stay in this beautiful apartment! It was cozy, clean, and had everything we needed. The hosts were incredibly kind and helpful, even going out of their way to drive us to the airport to get a rental car. We felt very well taken care of throughout our stay. We highly recommend this place and would love to come back! Thank you so much! :)
Villa in Noord
4.96 out of 5 average rating, 104 reviewsOcean front luxury villa in Malmok Aruba
From the time we booked Sharonna's house, right up to the time we got there, she was very responsive, helpful and patient with our myriad questions! The place was perfect for 5 women on vacation. We each had our own bedroom and there was a lot of space to spread out or hang together. The pool was beautiful and very relaxing. We could watch the sunset over the ocean across the street. The location was great, but a car was our best option even though we probably could have gotten around using public transportation for most of our exploration and beach hopping. Carolina was very helpful and was there any time we needed help or had questions. She was there to help us when we locked ourselves out once so a keyless entry system would be nice. The only issue was the oven was not working and we were looking forward to hiring a chef as we had read other reviewers had done for our last night in the house but there are so many wonderful restaurants around, it wasn't a huge disappointment.

4.98 out of 5 average rating, 248 reviewsMovida Inn Aruba- APT POOL VIEW aside Palm Beach
Great stay. The space was clean and everything is as described in the listing. It is a close drive to all attractions in the Palm Beach area, but isn’t walkable, so having a rental car is definitely recommended. Livia and Esther were very friendly and attentive. This unit does face the common area with floor to ceiling windows with light filtering blinds, so the kitchen area isn’t perfectly private (though the remaining unit is completely). With all of that in mind, I would highly recommend the Modiva Inn for others.

Rik and Karen made my stay very pleasant. Considering I traveled alone, I felt very safe. Rik and Karen , were very helpful, and knowledgeable about the area and gave some suggestions of where to eat, amount other things. Enjoyed our conversation, and felt comfortable ( a home away from home). The photos are just as described. It was a pleasurable experience to a new place. Thank you both!!

Lionel and Vanessa were very responsive to our arrival and had their place furnished both like the pictures as well as consumables like detergent and shower products that are often forgotten when in. a hurry. I would recommend it for stay in Oranjestad for convenience and them.
Rental unit in San Nicolas
5 out of 5 average rating, 44 reviewsExclusive Private Beach One Couple Retreat
This is an amazing place to stay! The whole space, especially the outdoor space along the water, is so beautiful. It is a perfect place to get some peace and privacy from the more touristy parts of the island. You get your own little beach access and basically a whole waterfront backyard to hangout in. The host Reynaldo was so welcoming and treated us like family. He serves you breakfast every morning with a view of the sea and it is a dream. We already want to go back!

Home in Savaneta
5 out of 5 average rating, 27 reviewsNEW Listing - Beachfront Suite & Spacious Patio
What a gem! I was tempted to not write a review for the selfish reason of not wanting the to get the word out. Fantastic views and beach access. We loved the outdoor living for which they provide fans to make it bearable when not enjoying the ocean at your door for swimming or snorkeling. I anchored myself in a float and hardly came out of the water. When I did, I thoroughly enjoyed the comfort of the hammock. The air conditioned bedroom was a wonderful reprieve in the evenings (even took a break for a night swim). It’s just a different and wonderful experience to be around the locals yet feel all the privacy we needed was available. The host was super attentive as was Jay the property manager. We will be booking again for next year before the week is over. Outstanding!

Marinelda was very sweet and kind. She was helpful before arrival as well as during. Her place was spotless and it was within walking distance of groceries, best Italian restaurant and approximately a 20 minute walk to the beach. I highly recommend Marinelda and her cozy place!
Cottage in Savaneta
4.92 out of 5 average rating, 122 reviewsOceanfront guest cottage w pool, sunset & vibe
We absolutely enjoyed our time. We stayed in the small cottage in the back. It is very tiny! Two adults and one child managed! There was just enough space for all of us, I wouldn’t recommend to a party bigger than 3. The pool was well taken care of. They had professional cleaners come out multiple times! The view of the ocean is breath taking; it’s about two hundred feet from the front door. Yohana is amazing! She checks in constantly to make sure everyone is all set. The bathroom had plenty of towels. Never had an issue with the hot water in the shower. The air conditioning was excellent.

Second time back and it was great. Great host, great place, great island. This is the best spot to stay in Aruba. TJ and Joelly make you feel right at home. Staying on the edge of the desert is so peaceful and quiet. Definitely would book again!
Rental unit in Noord
5 out of 5 average rating, 12 reviewsthe green villa ,Noord one bedroom apt.
Firstly, I'd like to say thank you to Peilan. This was my first ever international solo trip and it was nothing short of amazing. This place looks exactly like the photos. If anything, it looks even better in person. I was the only guest checked-in so I had the shared space to myself. It was so peaceful and such a nice little home away from home. I don't drive so I used the official taxi service while I was there which is actually decently priced. But, definitely rent a car if you can. The only "issues" I had is that the power went out briefly, but Peilan was quick to deal with that. The protective covering on the lockbox also got stuck on me at some point, but I figured it out, and Peilan fixed it promptly. I never stayed out too late because finding the place at night was difficult sometimes for the taxi drivers, I'm a solo traveler, and they get very busy so it's hard to get through. This was my birthday trip so it was very special to me, I would definitely stay here again!
Condo in Seroe Colorado
4.93 out of 5 average rating, 28 reviewsLittle bit of Heaven
Wow!! We stayed at Lil Bit of Heaven, and it was exactly what we wanted for our trip to Aruba. The location in San Nicolas was perfect for us. Nice and quiet with 2 beaches nearby, Baby and Rodgers beach. The condo had a peaceful and serene view of the Carribbean from the patio that we loved. Nicely appointed decor, furniture, very modern appliances, clean, cozy, and spacious. We loved coming back here and relaxing after an adventurous day out at the beach and on main island. Ele was a great host and took care of us from check-in to check-out. He met us on arrival, communicated with us throughout, and met us at checkout to make sure our stay was great. Highly recommend if you are looking for a wonderful place to stay that's away from the hustle and bustle of the main island; this is the one!

It was just like in the pictures. We stayed for 5 nights. When we arrived we saw the peacock so we knew the appartement was close by. It's central on the Island. Baby beach is the longest drive. We got a lot of tips for activities, food and culture but we could never do that in only 4 full days. We might be back though.

Absolutely loved our stay in Aruba! The Airbnb was a slice of paradise—clean, comfortable, and exactly as described. The hosts went above and beyond, providing local tips and being responsive to every question. We were greeted with a warm welcome and found thoughtful touches throughout the space that made us feel at home. The location was perfect, close drive to beautiful beaches and great restaurants, yet still peaceful and relaxing. Waking up to stunning island views every morning was unforgettable. Highly recommend this place to anyone visiting Aruba! We can’t wait to come back! 🌞🌴

4.95 out of 5 average rating, 129 reviewsDreamy waterfront Beach House in Aruba
Great location and beautiful view!!! Walking distance to both Zeerover and Flying fishbone. Quick car ride to small grocery stores and a great starting point for visiting the entire island. The bedrooms were comfy, peaceful and clean with great AC units. Kitchen had all the pots and pans we needed to prepare meals and the BBQ on the patio was awesome! Heads up that the house had both a nespresso machine and a drip coffee machine. 2 kayaks to use (a quick paddle ride away to Sea glass island) and our boys loved jumping off the dock and snorkeling around close to the house. There was also lots of towels, and snorkeling equipment at the house. Our family loved our stay here and miss it already!!!!

4.96 out of 5 average rating, 178 reviewsVilla Seroe Janchi ARUBA.
Villa Seroe Janchi was just right for my friend and I, with plenty of outdoor and indoor spaces in the warmth of the sun or cool of air-conditioning. A dally outdoor shower after exploring was terrific followed by a lounge chair dry off was lovely. With our rented car enclosed within the yard property, it felt safe and secure which was an added plus. The housekeeper who checked us in spoke only the local language, so when we realized we were missing wifil details she immediately came back. Jose was responsive to all my questions and requests so I'm even more grateful to him. I would definitely return to either of Jose's properties.

We had a great time here! Hosts were very responsive and kind. The location is away from the resort area but not too far when we wanted to visit there. Views are gorgeous and it was very nice to have the private pool. We will definitely stay there again!

4.94 out of 5 average rating, 125 reviewsCharming hideaway 5min to Palm Beach, private pool
This house was perfect for the 2 of us. The location felt safe & was convenient to many great beaches & plenty of amenities. The house is comfortably spacious, with simple & tasteful decor, & the pool was DIVINE. We will DEFINITELY hope/plan to stay here again. Heads up to renters: It was difficult to find the house at first, because we made the mistake of using what we thought was a street address, rather than the host’s exact coordinates. If you don’t make that mistake, it’s very easy to find, & once you’ve been there, it’s easy to get back to. Also, the house was beautifully clean when we arrived, but a very strong fragrance permeated the place (from the cleaning products?). It dissipated over time (we didn’t open the windows to air it out because we didn’t want to invite bugs in), but for anyone sensitive to fragrance: be prepared for this. Also, there was no cooking oil or pepper, so expect to buy absolutely everything you might need to cook a meal. We’ll be back!!
Your guide to Aruba
Welcome to Aruba
Aruba has all the earmarks of a Caribbean paradise: startlingly blue waters, white-sand beaches, and gentle breezes. But there are surprises, too. Rather than the waving palm trees that may come to mind when imagining a tropical island, Aruba’s landscape is arid and desert-like. This captivating volcanic landscape is dotted with cacti, scrub, and sculptural divi-divi trees, whose sinewy trunks are carved by the winds. It’s a beautiful and wild place, with clusters of civilization contrasted by a rugged and undeveloped side.
Aruba is a constituent country of the Netherlands, and its small but lively capital city, Oranjestad, contains colorful Dutch Colonial buildings. Beguiling beaches and fine dining can be found here, but also adventure. Snorkeling, windsurfing, and diving are popular pastimes. Aruba is considered a prime spot for exploring the ocean, and divers come here to see such fascinating shipwrecks as the SS Antilla, a German ship that was scuttled in 1940 and is one of the largest wrecks in the Caribbean. If you’re traveling with cash, note that although the island currency is the Aruban florin, you don’t need to exchange U.S. dollars here. American currency is widely accepted in Aruba, although you may receive change in florins.
The best time to stay in a vacation rental in Aruba
There really isn’t a bad time to stay in an Aruba vacation rental. With some of the lowest rainfall of any of the Caribbean islands, and reliably warm and sunny weather, it’s a balmy paradise year round. The accommodating weather means there’s a steady lineup of outdoor entertainment. The Aruba Soul Beach Music Festival, on Labor Day weekend, brings a lineup of musicians, comedians, and beach fetes, and in the fall visitors arrive for the Caribbean Sea Jazz Festival, one of the island’s largest events. But the marquee festival is Carnival, which takes up the whole month of February with revelry, musical performances, and parades featuring people in wonderfully elaborate costumes.
Top things to do in Aruba
Arikok National Wildlife Park
This windswept, picturesque park unfurls over nearly 20 percent of the island’s landscape. Marked by dramatic volcanic outcroppings, visitors flock here to bathe in the Natural Pool, a gorgeous ring of rock that forms a protected patch of ocean water, and to explore the Fontein Cave, an impressive network of limestone rock formations.
California Lighthouse
This stately white lighthouse, perched on the western tip of the island, provides breathtaking 360-degree views of Aruba. It's worth climbing the stairs to the top of this more than 100-year-old landmark, especially for an unparalleled view of the setting sun.
Ayo and Casibari Rock Formations
These two clusters of massive boulders delight visitors and confuse scientists, who aren’t sure how they came to be piled together in this way. Clamber over the bulbous Casibari, which rest inside a complex with a restaurant, and then head over to the nearby Ayo formations, which are decorated with ancient rock drawings.
