The house was perfect for our stay for a week in Aruba! The house has everything you need for your stay. It has a beautiful backyard and pool with lots of space and is located close to the best beaches and many amazing dining options. When we arrived it was spotless with fresh towels for the house and beach. The house also has everything needed to pack up for a day trip to the beach including beach chairs and coolers. After a day in the sun at the beach it was a wonderful retreat to swim in the pool and either get ready for a dinner at one of the amazing options close by or to stay home and cook using the well equipped kitchen. Patrick also provided lots of advice and support for our stay and our first visit to the island, and was available quickly when we reached out with a question. I highly recommend a stay at Canaruba!

Wonderful Home and Host!

We had a great time staying here. Everything was very clean (including the pool!). The area was safe and quiet, and the owner is incredibly responsive and helpful (we've had issues with this in the past at other properties, so this was greatly appreciated!). Would absolutely recommend!

Wonderful house and location

Property and pool very well maintained, back yard very private. Stove, oven and the bbq were spotless, we don’t find many bbq that clean. We loved the Nespresso machine. Location is amazing, very close to beaches, hotels, and many grocery stores. Patrick, the owner had great suggestions for our visit and was very welcoming in his emails.

Wonderful stay in Aruba

This was our first trip to Aruba and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Canaruba. We were met at the house upon arrival, and were pleased to see the house and pool were exactly as advertised. Patrick was very responsive, gave clear instructions and also many great tips on things to do on the island. We were a party of 5 so really enjoyed the space. Definitely a great place to stay, would highly recommend.

A Nice Stay

Our family, four adults and one child thoroughly enjoyed our stay at our private house with the pool. All the amenities were very good and the kitchen was well stocked. One really needs a vehicle if you are staying here as the beach is not within walking distance. We would definitely stay here again. Boomer N

We love Canaruba!

Our experience staying at Canaruba was wonderful for our family of five! The property is beautiful, as well as clean, well-maintained, fully equipped and family friendly. Patrick was very personable and had great communication throughout our stay. We truly have nothing but positive things to say about this property and host. The check-in and check-out process was also smooth. You will not regret your stay at Canaruba!

Beautiful Winter Getaway!

The house is exactly as advertised, beautiful and clean. Take a look at what supplies are on hand and then make a quick trip to pick up anything that you might need/want. The owner is great at offering suggestions for activities and restaurants suited to your family preferences. We’ll definitely be back!

Unfortunately we were unable to travel to Aruba due to the closed airspace by the US government. With that said, Patrick is an UNBELIEVEABLE host! From the very beginning, he provided information about the island, do's/don'ts, was very attentive to my questions, help set up a grocery delivery and contacted me when the situation with airspace occurred and we formed a plan. I have rented a lot of VRBO's and this by FAR was the BEST host I have ever dealt with. We will certainly rent from Patrick once our family returns to Aruba.

Thank you so much Danelle. This truly means a lot to me personally. Disappointment with the "airspace" issue for sure - but safety comes first and I'm glad we were able to adjust for it and you could enjoy an alternative vacation (for now :o) We'll see you soon I hope! - Patrick

Exceptional! Outstanding! Perfect! This was by far the best rental we’ve ever had. The property exceeded our expectations in every way—it was even better than the pictures. The photos simply don’t capture the amazing breeze, the warmth of the sun, and how relaxing the entire setting feels. The pool was absolutely the highlight—perfectly maintained and such a great place to unwind.But what truly set this experience apart was the owner. From start to finish, the communication was exceptional—responsive, thoughtful, and incredibly helpful. He went above and beyond by offering great local advice, surprising us with a gift card, and even helping us save over 1,000 on a rental car. That level of care and generosity is rare and made our trip even more special.We can’t recommend this property highly enough and would return in a heartbeat!

Just what we needed

The location of this property was perfect. The communication with everyone was top-notch and exceeded our expectations. The house was a great match for our family- a home away from home. Every detail on the property was well thought through and even included things we hadn't considered. The emails and suggestions on places to eat, visit, etc. were spot-on and helped with our planning. Overall our experience was exactly what we needed. We would visit and use Canaruba for any future trips to Aruba.

Fun in Aruba at Canaruba!

We had a great vacation in Aruba. Canaruba was a perfect home away from home for us. Very accommodating and comfortable for our family. A quiet home is much more our vibe than the busy high rise section. The beach chairs and coolers were well used when we were on the go. We really enjoyed the pool and the porch. Great space for relaxing in the morning and evening after a long day! We ate in for a number of meals, so having the full kitchen was a plus. Anna and Judy were a pleasure to deal with for sure. All went smoothly with check in and out.

Amazing Time in Aruba

From start to finish, this was a great stay in Aruba. The house was exactly as advertised and the backyard and outdoor section was A+. Things were clearly marked and easy to Understand. Patrick, the owner, went above and beyond and talked to us about places to eat and suggestions on the island. It felt like staying at a friend’s house, which just made the whole experience so much easier and more relaxing. I’d highly recommend this house and come Back again even. My family and I travel Quite a bit and we’ve stayed in many VRBO properties and the hospitality at this one has been the best!

Great Experience

Our first impressions of the house were it was clean and nicely furnished. It ended up meeting our needs perfectly and made our trip to Aruba complete. The house is located within 5 minutes of Palm Beach yet it is far enough away from the high rise hotel area to still be peaceful and quiet. The house and pool are surrounded by walls and once we closed the front gate behind us it was like entering our own private oasis. The pool is surrounded by palm and mango trees and sitting by it in the morning drinking coffee or at night sipping wine were very relaxing. We had one minor issue where some of the decorative lights near the pool were out and someone was there the next day looking at it. Overall our stay was fantastic. Thank you Patrick and your entire management staff for renting us your home and taking care of us so well. Best. Skip, Marites, and Mary Joy.

Our experience was exceptional! If you are considering going to Aruba, book this home over hotel. The house was clean, filled with everything you need in the kitchen and also for the beach and the pool was amazing and fun to relax in. Patrick was beyond helpful to us. He checked in on us when we arrived to assure we got in ok and asked If we needed anything. He gave clear instructions about the house and suggestions for what to do in Aruba and best Grocery shopping places and restaurants. He had suggestions for activities! The house is in an amazing location close to the beach, activities and restaurants. What most impressed me is the communication that Patrick gave us with possible flights being canceled due to what happened in Venezuela. What was beyond impressive is that he let us stay at his house when our flight was canceled. He wanted to make sure we ended the vacation on a positive note. He had a tenant that was suppose to check in on the second day. He said that he would help us find a place to stay if we had to leave. We did not have to leave as the next guest had to cancel and Patrick was so gracious and let Us stay for two nights without charging us. Words can not express how refreshing it is to have such a kind person support us during this unusual time. What could have been a very stressful situation turned out to be enjoyable because of all the help we got from Patrick. If you are looking for a place to stay, book this home! You won’t regret it!

Home Away From Home With Extra Perks!

The first thing you notice when you arrive is how accurate the listing is. The second thing you notice is how well maintained the property is both outside and inside. The location while not on the beach is only a 5 minute car ride to the nearest beach. Palm Beach is where EVERYONE seems to gather and central as this is, sometimes it’s nice to get away from all the people and just relax in privacy and the property has a gorgeous private pool for your use (including pool maintenance 2x a week. They are very fast and thorough and your pool is vacuumed and maintained.) Inside you’re treated to 3 large bedrooms,2 full baths with one bathroom connected to the master bedroom. There is a large living room, comfortable dining area and a good sized kitchen with all the things you would need to get you started before you grocery shop. All the kitchen gadgets that they talk about are there and easy to find. I traveled with my daughter who enjoyed the screened in back porch as she burns easily, while I headed straight for the pool to cool down. It is evident that the property is taken very good care of. I would not hesitate to stay here again. Patrick, the owner is very personable and quick to answer all questions even when you’re away. A great place to call home. Aruba truly is one happy island with so much to do and see.

Christmas in Aruba

Great location, great house, convenient to everything! Easy check in - personal welcome and tour and even a thoughtful welcome gift. The experience was just as advertised. Our family of four and a guest enjoyed our eight night stay at Canaruba and Patrick (the owner) went out of his way in advance of our stay and throughout to send helpful information and suggestions, including a map app that was crucial to our exploring the island with ease. Kitchen is well equipped for cooking and bartending needs - loved the screened porch for morning coffee and after dinner games. Pool area was lovely and so private and peaceful. I’m already anxious to return - Thanks for a great stay!
