Awesome get away place

We really enjoyed staying at the villa. It was very spacious inside as well as the outdoor space. Having a private pool was pure heaven and so convenient! We started every morning with a cup of coffee on the outside terrace. There are several seating areas outside. Inside has a great open floor plan that makes hanging out really easy. We highly recommend staying here.

Fantastic Property in an Ideal Location

This property is perfectly situated on a wonderful island, offering an unbeatable combination of convenience and charm. The layout is thoughtfully designed, providing a seamless flow between living spaces and the outdoors, making it feel both functional and inviting. We really enjoyed having coffee on the outside covered patio area and swimming in the outdoor pool, with a cocktail nearby. Nestled in a local neighborhood, it boasts a friendly atmosphere. A standout feature is its proximity to the beaches. Whether you're looking to relax on the sand or enjoy a sunset stroll, you’ll love being just a short distance away from Palm Beach and other local beaches. Overall, this property excels in location and design — an excellent choice for anyone seeking the island lifestyle!

Amazing week

The property was just as nice as the pictures. My wife and I spent 7 days here with our two teenaged boys, and the villa had ample space to hang together or have quiet time to relax. Minutes from many different beach options, the house had all we needed, with beach towels, beach chairs, and coolers. An amazing house on an amazing island.

ProsPretty homeHad all amenities Close to allPoolNeighborhood Property manager was friendly Dishwasher Ice makerConsSo many cockroaches! They are infested outside and inside. They did try to take care of it but It has not been maintained there unfortunately, so it didn’t work. We were terrified the whole stay and are worried about our belongings and bringing them in our own home. The washer has something wrong with it. We washed whites and they’re all ruined with whatever is in the washer. I e stayed in Aruba annually for about 5 years now and will be staying elsewhere in the future. It is important to keep Peats under control. It really had us beside ourselves the whole time and our group spent much time dealing with it. When I left today, they were crawling behind my headboard.

Wonderful villa in an excellent location

My family (husband & two small boys) and I had an excellent stay at Villa Chuchubi! The house was exactly as it looks in the pictures (bright, clean, open) and the outdoor space was beautiful. We loved spending time in the pool or relaxing at one of the many outdoor seating areas. The location was perfect with close proximity to grocery stores, restaurants, and of course beaches. We loved Arashi Beach most! We hope to return to Aruba and Villa Chuchubi in the future.

Our Aruba Dream Stay!

Staying at Villa Chuchubia was an extremely peaceful, clean and wonderful experience. My family and I were able to enjoy the refreshing pool first thing in the morning and after a fun day out. The villa’s close proximity to beautiful beaches, restaurants and shopping made it ideal. The house had the right amount of extras (pool gear, beach chairs, cooler, etc) and amenities, where we didn’t need a thing! Not to mention the host and the property manger were incredibly accommodating and pleasant, which added to the overall great experience. We highly recommend the villa for any family.

Great Island Getaway

Villa Chuchubi was just what we were looking for during our recent trip to Aruba! Beautiful, private property with its own pool and ample outdoor spaces. We had a great time watching the colorful local birds landing on the cacti! Well-appointed kitchen and outdoor grille that allowed us to cook at home during our stay. Very responsive on-island support for minor issues during our stay. Close to great beaches, restaurants, grocery stores. The ability to do laundry on-site meant we could pack lightly for our group of 5.

‘24 Summer Vacation

What a fantastic vacation we had in Aruba! Our communication with Sue was exceptional from start to finish. The house is exactly like the pictures. Everything you could possibly need from your vacation home is there. Driving around town is a non-issue because everything is close by. We personally welcomed meeting the house manager upon arrival and departure. The home is very well-maintained and from the moment you arrive you feel comfortable. We are already discussing our next trip to Aruba and staying at Villa Chuchubi! It was a trip we will never forget. Thank you for being fantastic hosts! We miss Aruba already!

About the host

Hosted by Paul and Sue Gibbs

Host profile image
We are just an ordinary English couple, who visited Aruba with our family for a two week vacation in 2013, and were captivated by the beauty and warmth of the island and its inhabitants.

Having fallen in love with all that Aruba has to offer, we decided to buy a property to enjoy ourselves, and to rent to others who can also create happy memories of this exceptional island.

Why they chose this property

We fell in love with Aruba during our 2013 vacation, and felt the same way about Villa Chuchubi from the moment we walked through the front door. The open plan kitchen/living/dining area is HUGE, with a large and shady terrace for eating and lounging, just the other side of the patio door from the kitchen.

The pool invites you to jump in, as soon as you step out into the lush, tropical gardens, and the pretty thatched palapa offers welcome shade from the heat of the Aruban sun.

What makes this property unique

* Stunning gardens and pool
* HUGE open plan kitchen/living/dining area
* Large master suite with walk-through closet and en-suite bathroom
* Quiet neighborhood close to Palm Beach
* Perfect base for a vacation in the paradise island of Aruba
