Awesome Place to Stay

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The condo was super clean as well as the parking lot and pool area. White Caps beach was about 3 minutes away. The marina area could use more green lights in the water for fishing. 1 green light is not enough. We still fished the marina and had fun. We definitely will be returning in the future.

Great Place!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We loved this place! We stayed at Aruba Bay with multiple families for a baseball tournament. This townhouse was clean and very homey. The second bedroom was a little smaller than expected, but other than that it was perfect. The kids had so much fun at the pool with the slides, and playing foosball and ping pong upstairs. The location was great, being so close to the beach. There’s plenty to do here and in the area. We plan to come back!

Perfect for small family

Property was perfect! Clean, plenty of towels, extra pillows. The beds were very comfortable! The bunk beds were not rinky dinky either and just as cozy as the master. Square footage wise, it’s not a big place so about 8ppl can hang out comfortably. Kitchen was well stocked for cooking; the pottery mugs are super cute. The decor is tasteful and done well. Everything was clean when we arrived. Nice, small back patio sitting area to enjoy your morning coffee. There were events at the pool, karaoke and s’mores. We played in the game room for over an hour, loved it. Short drive to Balli Park for beach time and close proximity to the Island Market. Definitely a property that we would consider buying a townhome in.

Cute place

We enjoyed our stay at Salty Melons in Aruba Bay. Very clean and new with two parking spots. The pool was pretty crowded during our July stay but we enjoyed to upper outdoor deck of the yacht club and the lovely cool breeze. Very nice property but could have done without the construction all around our unit

Perfect for our family of 4.

We found the location to be easy to get navigate to and from. You cannot beat the proximity to the beach and wonderful local eats. The house was very clean, had plenty of towels, wifi, coffee pot (single serve and traditional), and televisions in all the rooms. We would definitely stay here again.
