First of all really want to thank Barbara in easing our concerns about scheduling our trip during these pandemic times, she was wonderful and reassuring! The home was just perfect for our family of 8, some tweens, teens and young adult children with mom and dad. Layout is great, the beds were comfortable, kitchen well stocked with nice appliances, linens and towels plentiful. Location in our minds can't be beat. It was our first time in Aruba and we debated about staying up near the hotels but this was much better for our family. Really could drive anywhere within 20-25" max except maybe the periphery of the National Park. The best snorkeling we found was right across the road and at Mangel Halto just down the street! We brought our own snorkel gear, really a must if you like to snorkel as we could go whenever we wanted. Rik, the property manager, was excellent, went over the top on New Year's Day when the dryer wouldn't turn on, didn't expect anything to be done that day, but he was there within the hour for a quick fix. Really can't say enough about this property, the island and people of Aruba. Thanks Barbara and Rik!
