We visited Aruba at the end of January for 9 days. Our group of six included two grandparents, my husband and myself, along with our five year old daughter and nine year old son.
After visiting several online sites, I found Pieter’s Las Islas condominium -- exactly what our family was looking for. I emailed him prior to our arrival with a few questions, and he responded very quickly. Pieter was there to greet us when we arrived to Las Islas. He gave us a tour and all I can say is WOW, this place is amazing! The condo isn’t like most rentals. It is your very own 5 star hotel for the week!! The home is immaculate, high-end and modern. From the décor, bath fixtures and furniture to the incredibly comfortable beds, Pieter has spared no expense. Each bedroom has its own full bath, and both master bedrooms have huge walk-in closets. Big, fluffy beach and bath towels are stocked in each room. Pieter also provides travel sized shampoo, conditioner, body wash and lotion in every bathroom.
The pool is just outside the door and has a jetted hot tub, as well as lounge chairs. The pool was not too deep, which was great for my kids -- who loved to splash and play in the evenings after a day in the sun.
The grocery store is only a 5 minute drive away, and we had several meals at home using the full kitchen and outdoor gas grill. The kitchen is well stocked with dishes, glass wear, silverware, pots and cooking utensils. I called Pieter to ask about a blender, and within hours he arrived with a Nutribullet Pro!
It’s also only an easy walk to Palm Beach, which has tons shopping and dining options.
On both Eagle and Palm Beaches, you can rent a lounge chair for the day enjoy the beach bars and restaurants, or bring the beach chairs and a cooler from the condo.
We rented a car, but you really don’t need to. There are plenty of taxis by the hotels. If you rent a car, parking is free and the complex has a security guard at night. We’ve been to the island four times and have always felt safe, but it was also nice to know the complex is gated and monitored.
We had a wonderful vacation and would highly recommend Pieter’s condo in Las Islas. Thanks Pieter!
