Location, location, location!!! If you want to relax and not be in the busy hotel area. We love to snorkel and cook, so this was perfect!
Everything about this property including the communication of host (Michel) exceeded all expectations! The location with immediate access to the beach for snorkeling and relaxing, the size of the house for 9 people with kids sleeping comfortably in the living room, the attention to detail like turf surrounding the house for kids to play soccer, the quiet not so busy neighborhood, and the snorkeling gear provided by hosts made this such an enjoyable stay. The kitchen was a great size for making breakfast and lunch, plenty of outdoor seating to enjoy the weather and all the bedrooms were large with cold table beds. Very clean inside and out! Would 10/10 recommend and would go stay here again 100%!
We loved this property and location! Being able to go explore the island and then come home and walk across the street and relax was perfect! Very clean, had everything we needed to cook as well as snorkel gear and a cooler. Would definitely stay here again and recommend to others!!
This is an absolutely amazing location right in front of Mangel Halto park which has some of the best snorkeling on the island. It's amazing being able to wake up and walk to the park grabbing any spot you want with the luxury of being able to easily walk back to the house to refill drinks or grab a bite to eat. The kitchen was very well equipped, we had everything we needed for making drinks and meals. The beach chairs, floats, and snorkeling gear was a huge plus. The view from the living room and front porch just can't be beat. There's some talk about the alarm, we felt safe the entire time. This is a great escape from the high and low rise touristy areas which is much more our style of vacation.
Has to be one of the most well-appointed rentals I've ever stayed at. Plenty of supplies for cooking, snorkeling, hanging out, or relaxing on the beach. The location could not be better! Right on the water in a safe neighborhood.
Perfect Getaway with Stunning Views and Exceptional Hospitality!
Our stay at this property was absolutely wonderful! The communication from the hosts was excellent, making the entire experience seamless. The property itself is lovely, offering perfect views of Mango Halto. We especially appreciated the availability of chairs and snorkel gear, which made our beach days even better. We can't wait to return to this amazing spot again!
We really enjoyed this location! A lot of time was spent on the front porch gazing at the beautiful blue water. The house had everything that we needed. There was plenty of space for 3 couples.

Hi Cassandra,
We know you have many choices when it comes to vacation accommodations. Thank you for choosing GetAwayAruba and taking the time to write a review. Happiest New Year! GetAwayAruba hopes to see you again!
The neighborhood was a little rough, and there were a few items in the home that could use some love. The water outside was gorgeous, and the property manager was very great with communication.
The location was great, we could drive to any landmark on the island in less than 30 minutes. The views, especially sunsets are amazing! The home had everything we needed for a fun family vacation at the beach and generally everything for living around the house too. The restaurant down the street from the property had a very cool atmosphere, great food, and the people were so friendly and welcoming. The host promptly answered the very few questions we had throughout the stay expeditiously. Absolutely recommend this property!
A very nicely appointed home. Right across the street from fantastic snorkeling spots. Away from the rush of tourist traps yet still close to all the amenities. My favorite beside Mangel Halto was Baby Beach, less than 10 minutes. This was a great place for me and my friends. Will definitely be a repeat visitor.

Hi Ray, thank you so much for the wonderful review. I'm happy you enjoyed the house! You and your family were amazing!! We hope to host you again in the near future, you are always welcome at GetAwayAruba!!
We loved the views from the house and spent lots of time on the front patio relaxing while watching the snorkel and scuba folks. The house was comfortable, clean and cool. We liked the location outside of the resort hustle and bustle. It is a short drive to the different beaches and restaurants. We enjoyed the donkey sanctuary so much. Baby Beach and Arashi Beach were our favorites. Plenty of good restaurants nearby and in the resort areas. The swimming and snorkeling is great at the house. It was the perfect place to stay!
Aruba is definitely a little piece of heaven on earth, And our stay at this property made it even more perfect. This gem has all the comforts of home and spectacular views. The house had recently sold, but the previous owner and the current owner were the most amazing people to work with and made the transition absolutely perfect and flawless for us. They were both SO responsive and helpful. It was the perfect vacation.

Thank you Christine! The shared messages is one of the many things Steve and I will miss. We have only 2 more guests from our tenure. As we shared messages, I get a feeling about those who vacation at GetAwayAruba. We could absolutely feel the love that you were feeling while vacationing at GetAwayAruba. Please do check out the new website at

Not a good neighborhood
Inside the house is good but the neighborhood is not good
Beautiful property. It has everything you need to be comfortable. All you need is food and beverage. Michel is very responsive, call, text or VRBO messages. His property inspires me to get my own. Aruba is, of course, stunning. We rented a car and explored. Parking rates were either free or very cheap ($1-2, for 2 hours). Definitely will be returning to Aruba and to this property. Fantastic hosts!
This was an amazing place to stay!!!! We love to snorkel and all we had to do was walk out the front door. The place was super nice 3 bedroom 3 bath with a wonderful fenced in back yard. All toiletries were there and ready… even shampoo and conditioner, hair dryers, straight iron, soap. Many nice beach towels and bath towels! Owners were super responsive to any questions and extremely helpful!!!! Will be back!!!! Loved it!

Hi Renee, thank you so much for the wonderful review. It makes me very happy that you enjoyed the house as much as we do! We look forward to hosting you in the future. You are your family were amazing!!
We LOVED our stay here. Savaneta/Pos chiquito is our favorite part of the island to stay… we love being away from the hustle and bustle of the tourist towns. Mangel halto is an incredibly gorgeous beach and this house is perfect. The cozy and comfy decor and the sliders that open all the way across the front of the house set the perfect Caribbean vibe. The layout of the 3 beds and 3 baths give plenty of privacy and space for everyone. There’s no need for a pool… just take a float into the gorgeous water of mangel halto and you’re instantly in heaven!!! Also great snorkeling spot! The owner Michel is so quick to communicate and very helpful with anything you need. We will 100% be staying here again! We’ve stayed in some great houses in aruba, and this one is now our favorite.A few things to note are that Mangel Halto is a local area. The locals love to hang out here in the evenings and play their music and cut loose. We LOVED this, but this vibe may not be for everyone. There are also dogs that walk freely around the area and they are super friendly and love company. We also loved this!!! We felt safe and comfortable at all times. If what you want is a genuine aruba experience, this is the perfect place to stay!
What an awesome vacation! This home met all our expectations and more. The owner was very informative from the time we booked our vacation, at our arrival, while visiting the island and as we departed. The home is as pictured. Having the beach chairs, beach towels, and cooler to use was an added bonus. We loved the Mangel Halto beach which was in front of the home. Often there were times when only my family was on the beach. How much more relaxing can a vacation be? We loved all of the beaches in Aruba but this was one of our favorites due to proximity to the home and snorkeling. We plan to visit again and will plan to return to this home!

Hi Angela, thank you so much for the wonderful review! Makes me very happy you enjoyed the house as much as we do!! You and your family were amazing to deal with. You are always welcome to come back and visit us!! Happy 4th
This home was everything and more. Amazing location with best seat to view the sunset. Communication with Michel was perfect. The home feels comfortable, has everything you need and more. On the quiet side of the coast so rent a car to drive into town, or to other sites as needed. Then come home to safety, comfort, and an amazing sunset. Wake up and have coffee on the porch, then jump into the clear blue waters of Mangel Alto! Been to Aruba a few times, but this visit was the best to date.
Enjoyed the decor, and the ample space. The hammocks in front and back felt like a gift from the Universe.
We will definitely be booking again in the future!
We stayed in this house by accident 2 years ago because we were unable to stay in home we had rented due to plumbing issues. It was a blessing. Loved the location of this house.
When we decided to return we were pleasantly surprised that the home furnishings had been updated as well as the landscaping. There is faux grass that I wasn’t sure I would like but it is actually perfect. So much better than concrete and/or dirt. We could sit or lie in the hammock on the front porch and gaze out on the ocean.
Three bedrooms and three baths are perfect when you’re traveling with other couples. Plus the rooms are very spacious.
Can’t wait to return next year!
This was one of the most well stocked VRBO stays we’ve booked. Everything was on hand from toiletries to kitchen items like coffee filters, dishwasher soap, etc. The laundry even had pods for the one load we ran. Right across the street from a beach and snorkeling spot with a wagon to take beach supplies. Also stocked with family games.We were there over Christmas week, so be prepared for other beach goers coming & going down the block and parking can get full in front of the property view of the water. It’s a setting with people enjoying music, so if you’re expecting seclusion, this isn’t the right pick.Furniture seems new and well cared for.Location is a central point on the island and nothing was farther than 30 mins drive. If going to National Park is part of your plans, opt for the 4 wheel drive vehicle.The block behind has a family restaurant La Tavola (Anna’s place) which was the best dining experience we had on the island. A must book reservation if you are a foodie.
The location was great with gorgeous views of the water and amazing sunset viewing nightly. My husband and i snorkeled every day, and always saw tons of beautiful, brightly colored fish! The house was very spacious for two! I turned the third bedroom into an exercise room and dressing area. I so appreciated the combo step- in bathtub and shower in the bathroom off the master. The bathrooms were lovely, with lots of natural light. Please anticipate decor more like a family home than the luxury of a resort. Needs some maintenance and newer furniture, but overall felt cozy, safe and private, without all the hustle and bustle of the high rise area! Just steps from the front door is one of the best snorkeling spots in Aruba!
The other one was Boca Catalina. With a rental car --shops, restaurants, the butterfly farm and other lovely beaches (including Boca) are only 10-20 minutes away. This is a great place to build forever memories!
