We had a fabulous time. Hosts were terrific and very accommodating. We requested a few kitchen items and they arrived very quickly. The villa was beautiful, very comfortable and relaxing. The outdoor patio area was also used and was relaxing. One of the beaches was very close - 2-3 min walk. We would absolutely return and hope we can stay in the same Villa again.

Amazing vacation rental. The house was clean and new. Great area to stay on the island. The balcony’s were on both sides of the house. The patio was private and had a nice pool. Nice floor plan. The realtor was available for questions and very responsive. Nice to have a washer and dryer. Close to but not on the beach, just a short walk. Would definitely recommend.

Sea La Vie was the absolute perfect villa for our family of 7. The decor was stunning and it was well equipped with everything needed to make our stay easy. The hosts were beyond attentive, going well above the expectations, answering any and all questions as well as reaching out to check in. Arrival and departure were super easy. The location was perfect with some of the world’s best beaches within yards of the villa. Additionally, the high rise strip was a short drive. We would highly recommend this villa and look forward to returning soon!

Perfect island getaway

An absolutely beautiful piece of property. The location is ideal, away from all the hustle and bustle with some of the most beautiful beaches just a few yards away. The backyard space is perfect for when the sun gets too hot at the beach and the various balconies were perfect for sunrise and sunsets. Ruben and company were so helpful before and during our stay. I would absolutely recommend this property to anyone considering a stay in Malmok!

Awesome house, better location!

This property was perfect for our stay in Aruba. There were two couples, so we each had our own suite on our own floor. Very open and nice for entertaining and lounging by the pool. The location was perfect for beach access. Snorkeling is great at Boca Catalina!

Aruba stay

We found the place to be perfect for the eight of us. The walking distance to beach and snorkeling was amazing. The pool pics were a little deceiving as pool is very small but we made it work. Would stay again in a heart beat.
