Fantastic place to stay!
I admit we had some reservations when booking this property as there were no reviews yet, but what a big mistake it would have been if we would not have booked it for that reason! The property is located in a quiet neighborhood of Aruba on a hill side. It is the last house before a bend in the road which makes it very private. The property is very spacious with two air-conditioned bedrooms and two bathrooms, and the view from the large veranda (where you will be living most of the time) is gorgeous. The area in front of the property is a protected nature reserve, so you have an unobstructed view of the island and the sea. We stayed here in November and we enjoyed both sunrises and beautiful sunsets (but the sunsets will not always be visible depending on the season). Mangel Halto beach is close, you can enjoy the small beach itself but you can also find shady spots on the cliff side to the right while enjoying a comfortable breeze. There are a couple of local supermarkets nearby, but if you want to stock up well visits to Super Food (check out their marinated beef and lamb tenderloin) and Ling and Sons (check out their lobster tail and marinated fish) are recommended. It will take you about 20 minutes to get there depending on traffic, so it is very convenient that the property comes with a large cool box for transportation and a large refrigerator that allow you to stock up easily for a week.
The owners live in the house next door should you have any issues or questions. There are good takeaways (Mangel Halto Bar and Sea View for lunch) and very good restaurants (Marina Pirata, Zeerover, Flying Fishbone and Old Man and the Sea for dinner) nearby.
All in all a great experience and the property comes highly recommended!
