Beyond Expectations
This was our first trip to Aruba and the condo was the centerpiece of a memorable vacation. It started with the upbeat and responsive emails from Ruben that morphed into easy texts upon our arrival. The condo is remarkable - I'd say even better than the pictures - with a great kitchen; great bedrooms with 4.5 baths; and we sat outdoors each evening by the pool and played games in the great space. A cooler and beach chairs were waiting for us by the pool and we used them every day at the beaches. The area feels very safe and is literally 150 yards from Boca Catalina beach; another 250 yards from Tres Trapi beach and a 2-minute drive or 10-minute walk from Arashi beach - all with great off-shore snorkeling (and easy to walk and secure a beach canopy with your stuff by 8 a.m.). We rented a car, but saw the public bus stop regularly along the main road. With our car, the restaurants and shops of Palm Beach are 5 minutes away and the Super Food grocery story (that is pretty amazing) is only 10 minutes away. Ruben was a fantastic host throughout our stay and ended it on the last day with a final text, "Just a reminder check-out is at 11 a.m...You are officially still on vacation. We do not expect you to do any chores, so no cleaning!..." That summed up how easy and enjoyable our time was here.
