Are you seeking the Ultimate Aruba Vacation?
Do you love to be in the heart of the action, but tire of the crowds and the herd mentality?
Do you love luxury and having every possible amenity at your fingertips, yet hate having to pay through the nose to get it?
We invite you to stay BEACHFRONT in the nicest luxury Condo Development on the Island!
Oceania 222 is the answer to your Aruba dreams and is available now at a price well below that of the luxury hotels and timeshares, but without sacrificing anything except the hassles.
In all cases, your savings staying with us at Oceania 222 will equal or exceed 50%-55% off (usually MUCH MORE off) the leading hotel and timeshare chains.
For example, the closest size wise(1800sq ft VS OUR 2100sq ft ) property is a three bedroom, three bath unit at Marriott's Aruba Surf Club timeshare resort designated "Oceanview" (In Marriott terms, that's at the back end of the second building with a side ocean view, 420 feet set back from the beach- compare that to OceanFRONT at Oceania 222)
When we checked on line, under the Marriott "lowest price guarantee", on Marriott's booking website, savings at Oceania222 reflected 60% or more- don't take our word for it, check it out for yourself!
REMEMBER:You have found the ultimate beach location! There are only a few exclusive villas that have a beachfront location rivaling this one on the entire island of Aruba.
Even within Oceania, nothing can match the position of this villa with all three large balconies capturing direct beachfront sunset views.
We are ALREADY BOOKED SOLID for Winter 2012 except for MARCH 17th to 24th, 7 full nights Saturday to Saturday
After that, we have availability-May June, 2012 etc. FOR NOW...
The point is , book as early as you can.

Superior Sand Quality-white and fine -----------
Length and Width- widest and longest in Aruba ---------

No Rip Currents/Undertow, perfect swimming conditions for ALL abilities ---------
The Unique Benefits at this Condo
The Best View on the entire Island--all the locals we have known for years -say "WOW" and you will agree! We know this because half of our guests are REPEAT VISITORS and they have enthusiastically agreed with our opinion of Eagle Beach and 222's position on it!
Owner's Map of Eagle Beach
We love to travel for all the right reasons and that is only 90% of the story!
At the time we acquired Oceania 222, it was supposed to be our year-round residence, but my company made us an attractive offer elsewhere.We were given first choice of units and views during the preconstruction process and after careful research taking wind direction and sun exposure into account, wisely decided to select 222 as our home. Our projections turned out to be accurate since rooftop gardens and patios in Aruba soon proved to be folly.

Wow, this property is even better than the pictures. We just got home, we stayed from Dec. 17, 2011 till Dec. 23, 2011. There were 7 of us and we had plenty of room...we felt like we were at a resort all to our self. Pool and beach were only a few steps away and very private. VERY VERY safe..security stopped anyone who entered property, and there were gates with codes to enter or exit at the beach. We did rent a car, Royal car rental rented us a 7 passenger car for 370.00 that included insurance. The guys in our group rode the bus everywhere and loved it, they pick you up right in front of Oceania..but the ladies liked the car.If you are looking for a beautiful condo with lots of room and want to feel like you are at a 5 star resort, pick this one!!! If we visit Aruba again, we WILL stay here!! Loved it and the owner as well as the manager were super and answered any questions we had with in minutes. Thanks for sharing your home with us!

"Loved it! Love it! Loved it!" Our family (2 seniors/2 adults/2 boys ages 11&12) just returned from a stay in Aruba. We had such a FABULOUS time - it was by far one of our favorite family vacations to date. The grounds at Oceania are beautiful, and the accomodations and amenities were even better than the photos/videos we had looked up on-line. It was absolutely PERFECT for our family. The private nature of both the pool area and Eagle beach allowed for much football fun. It was only a short trip to either the busy high rise district, or to downtown. There were fabulous restaurants within walking distance - so no vehicle would have been necessary, although we cruised around in our rental van a few times. Many of the excursions pick you right up @ the front entrance! We caught the end of Easter week/weekend, and it was nice to experience both Aruba in busy beachfront celebration - and then watch all of the tents being packed away and the beach open up in all its endless bold beauty. The waves, by the way, were perfect for body surfing - and the water is so incredibly clear. Nothing litters Eagle beach - we spent almost the entire week barefoot, marveling at the softness of the sand! We are hoping to get back again next year - and would attempt to stay again in the same unit. It was HUGE, clean, and beautiful - more than enough room for 6 people - with two complete kitchens, although we never needed the 2nd. As our son commented shortly after we arrived, "there may be better places than this, but if there are, I don't even want to know about 'em." We all echo that sentiment. If you choose Oceania you will not be disappointed. Oh, and the owner is GREAT about responding to any worries/concerns you may have leading up to your visit. Once you settle in, you'll forget all about those and simply enjoy.
Owner response:We really appreciate it greatly when guests like you take time out of their valuable schedules to share your feelings about our Villa and the vacation memories they will have forever as a result of having stayed there. We also are very pleased that you noticed the pristine nature of EAGLE BEACH which is consistently rated as one of the top 10 on the entire planet. Palm Beach, to the North, sadly, has seen better days because of overdevelopment, crowding, noise pollution and traffic due to the hustle-bustle of all the high rise hotel developments and Time Share properties, so we are glad that you appreciated the unspoiled marvels of nature still to be had right in front of the three balconies of our BeachFront Villa. Again, thanks for sharing your authentic, unsolicited and very sincere comments and our only hope is that we get to welcome you back to Eagle Beach and ARUBA in the very near future! Warm Regards, Gary Lesker, Owner

Our 2 families recently returned from our Eagle Beach-vacation. This property is everything and more, in size, appearance,beach&sight access...etc. The grounds are beautiful-well maintained and quite serene. We were a party of 4 adults, with a 16,18, and two 20 year old college students. Before our trip, the owner was always prompt in answering questions, etc, , as well as the contact person on the island to help in any way as a resource,etc... Great restaurants for us were Scala ,Matthews Beach-side, Restaurant,& DeliFrance for Crepes,sandwiches, etc.Oceania is centrally located for our beach fun- as swimming, beach vollyball, walking, reading,,playing football, and seeing the island. Our snorkeling experiences were unbelievable, as we did the Jolly Pirates ship, and then snorkeled off the Arashi Beach. Go to the right of the beach about 200 meters and a paradise of fish will thrill you! Saw an eel, nurse shark, huge parrot fish, multiple others, and schools of fish! ATVing was grand and don't let the reviews of going to the Natural Pool 'scare you'...great trip. Also did a jeep tour of the entire island and climbed Mt. Hooiberg for a super morning outing. Early morning fishing was even a highlight for some in our party! We would all love to return and we would easily book this property right away! Thank you for providing us with a accommodations that enabled us to relax while inside and then making it easy to enjoy "One Happy Island". Blessings!
Owner response:THANK YOU SO MUCH for your unsolicited review! We are so happy that you were satisfied with the accomodations and service and hope you will return again. It was our pleasure to have you as our guests and thrilled that Aruba gave you so much fun and happy memories your family will recount and enjoy forever. All the best, Gary Lesker, Owner Oceania222

My family and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Aruba. Our condo provided the required amentities to make our stay comfortable. We enjoyed the pool and the beach right across from the condo. We found the condo to be in a great location...close enough to all the activities we wanted to do during our stay. We particularly enjoyed the dining, water activities and shopping in palm beach but were glad our beach (eagle beach) provided less crowds

FIRST I WOULD LIKE TO SAY WE HAD A FANTASTIC STAY AT OCEANIANA #222. OUR STAY WAS FEB 6-13 2010.WE HAD 5 ADULTS & 2 CHILDREN WHEN BOOKING GARY WAS SO HELPFUL AND ANSWERED EVERY QUESTION WE HAD.WE NEVER HAD ANY PROBLEMS OR QUESTIONS WHILE STAYING,HOWEVER IF WE HAD JAUN WOULD HAVE BEEN THERE FOR US NIGHT OR DAY. THE CONDO WAS ABSOLUTELY TO DIE FOR. IT HAD EVERYTHING YOU COULD ASK FOR WHICH INCLUDED THE MOST GORGEOUS SUNSETS AND VIEW OF EAGLE BEACH FROM ANY OF THE 3 BALCONIES. ALSO I MIGHT NOTE WHAT A GREAT LOCATION FOR EXPLORING THE ISLAND, GOING SHOPPING AND EATING OUT AT THE FINE RESTURANTS. WHAT A GREAT WAY TO SPEND A VACATION AWAY FROM COLD SNOWY MONTHS OF THE MIDWEST, THANKS AGAIN GARY!
Owner response:Thanks for the nice feedback. I especially enjoy the fact that you realize that Juan Carlos really helps to make it special- not that you absolutely need him, but the just the fact that he is there to help IF you do!! gml, owner

We were a group of 8 adults (4 couples) traveling to Aruba for the first time. Oceania 222 was THE PERFECT vacation spot for us. The views from the balconies are absolutely breathtaking. Eagle Beach is just steps from the condo and not nearly as crowded as Palm Beach in the high rise hotel district. The condo pools are really nice and hardly ever used so it feels as though you have them to yourself. Having a contact like Juan Carlos on the island was a real plus as well. He was very helpful. Dr. Lesker was so very helpful to us with our questions about our trip to Aruba prior to our trip and very prompt at answering our emails. We cannot say enough good things about Dr. Lesker's beautiful Oceania 222. A great vacation spot at a great value! Thank you Dr. Lesker!
Owner response:We don't always get it right, but its very encouraging to hear positive comments from happy guests like you. Thanks for taking the time to write. I hope we can welcome you or your family again! If there is anything we can do to make your next stay MORE enjoyable, contact me in advance and we'll set it up for you. Warm Regards, gm lesker, Owner

We stayed at Oceania 222 for a month starting Nov 13th and we cannot say enough about this lovely property. It was perfect in every way. We wanted for nothing during our stay it was so well equipped. Even the dinnerware and cookware was top quality. Not to mention the location! It is perfect. Right on eagle beach. We had the beach and pool to ourselves for the majority of our stay. The property manager and housekeeper were excellent. Very efficient and responsive. We highly recommend Oceania 222 for anyone looking for a perfect place to stay in Aruba! A true home away from home!
Owner response:Thank you for your nice compliment. The staff had nice things to say about you too... and we are happy to welcome you back anytime!-G. Lesker, Owner O-222

We stayed at Oceania 222 for a week the beginning of April. We are a family of 5 and had lots of room to spread out! My 13 year old son had his own room with a flat screen tv and a balconey with a beautiful view! Our daughters shared a room, each with their own Queen sized bed & they loved playing with the karaoke machine on their large flat screen tv. My husband and I had our own suite away from everyone with our own balconey & of course, a beautiful view! There is 24 hour security (even though the island is so safe) and the grounds are constantly being taken care of by a lovely group of people. My kids enjoyed the pool which was thorougly cleaned every other morning. The workout area is spacious with windows all around. We appreciated the privacy at the beach across the street especially after seeing some of the beaches at the hotels which were packed with people. We will be back for sure!

We thoroughly enjoyed our first visit to Aruba in this lovely oceanfront Oceania condo. We used the spacious balconies every day. The pool area and grounds are gorgeous. Pool below you, beach in front of you, 10-minute drive to great snorkeling, walk to restaurants, 5-minute drive to bowling and mini golf for the kids! Thanks for sharing your home with us!

Comment Text: We had a wonderful experience at Oceania 222 in March 2008. The views of the ocean and the pool are outstanding. You are a short walk away from the beautful yet amazingly un-crowded Eagle Beach. The owner is very accessible and accomodating, and the condo is equipped with many extras to help you make the most of your time in Aruba. I highly recommend Oceania 222!
Owner response:Jenna: It is wonderful to see responses like this and we thank you !! I would just like to add a small clarification in case other guests wonder what you meant by "short walk away": Linear distance measured from any of the three Oceania 222 balconies to the white coral sands of Eagle Beach is 68-78 feet. The distance till your toes are in the turquoise waters: 210-220 feet (since the average width of the white sand is 140-150 ft directly in front of the balconies)
