About this property

4 Bed Luxury Villa , Private Pool, Short Walk To Ritz And Marriott Beach !

Hello Travelers...
Our 2000 square foot 4 bedroom 4 bathroom villa features high 14 foot cathedral ceilings with main living area having a open view design.
There is plenty of light with large windows and all glass exterior doors.
The villa sits on a spacious 8000 square foot property at the end of a small cul-de-sac and is just a few minute walk to the Ritz and Marriott beach.
From our front gate to the Marriott/Ritz Carlton Roundabout/circle is 750 meters / 4/10 of a mile... Walkable in about 7-8 minutes.

The outside area features a spaceously sized 350 square foot pool that is 4-5 feet in depth.
There are 2 in water benches that accommodates 4 people comfortably and with steps near by 6 people can enjoy a drink while sitting in the pool.
The pool is also raised 1 foot above the ground which provides impromptu seating all around the pool.
The pool is surrounded by a spacious 1000+ square foot high end coral patio which your bare feet will greatly appreciate.
Adjoining the coral patio and a step up is another 1000+ square foot Bavarian field stone patio (also bare foot friendly) covering most of the backyard area.
Featured in this patio area is a large tropical styled gazebo area that houses an impressive 20 foot L shaped polished concrete wet bar complete with electric outlets.
With hotel quality bar stools and grill its the perfect place for your outdoor dining.

The outdoor design and spaciousness of the property offer our guests several areas for gathering.
In addtion to the bar area in the back corner there are 3 large tropical styled palaps (think permanent super large beach umbrella with palm leaves)
and the coral patio along the pool area, and patio furniture just out the back doors that adjoins the dining room.
Two of the palapa sits on an area of soft grass.
The rest of the property is accessible either on a stamped concrete walkway or our customized stepping stones. To complete the tropical feel there are
100+ plants some amongst the 25+ clay pots. Hopefully the accompanying photos enhance the description.
Our photos are updated regualry and include the month & year it was taken in the caption.


We have our own on call chef. Chef Jon specializes in authentic Aruban cuisine.

We can make vehicle rental reservations for you. Most of the time we are able to get a better price than going through the big name companies.
A majority of our guests have booked the vehicle rentals through us.

There is an additional per night guest fees for more than 6 guests.

Beautiful home, great location!
This home was perfect for my family. Ideally located and private. Easy access to town, airport and local beaches. Started our day off sitting around the pool with breakfast and ended the night taking a dip. The hosts were wonderful and very responsive. Sharing this with friends who plan to go. Will definitely be back!

Great Property for Family Enjoyment
As we entered, we immediately noticed the gorgeous landscaping and amenities, including the beautiful pool. The security of the property was reassuring. Going into the home, we loved the open floor plan. It was very clean and tidy. The home felt spacious yet cozy at the same time. The bedrooms were comfortable and we appreciated the doors separating the sleeping quarters from the living area. As Americans, we missed a full-size oven but were able to use the provided countertop convection. We loved staying in your home, enjoyed our family time immensely, and look forward to the possibility of staying again in the future.

Had a great week
Our first time to Aruba, 3 couples in their 50’s & 60’s, 2 girls in their early 20’s. Everyone enjoyed the property and the location. Quiet safe neighborhood but close enough to walk to where the action is. The property is just as described and the host’s are great. Helpful when you need them and not around when you don’t. Will do this again!

Great Rental
Close to everything, home was perfect with a family of 5. The pool has night glowing lights which was fun. Plenty of beach stuff, towels. Would definitely stay there again. Highly recommend a car as it is not a bicycle or walking area. Had a wonderful time

GORGEOUS home in Aruba, PERFECT location
This was our first family stay in Aruba. We absolutely loved the home and the outside was just gorgeous. I would rate this a 10 star!! It is in the perfect location and only minutes to the beach. Jim & Tamara were by far the best hosts and we can't thank them enough. We have rented many VRBO homes and this is by far the best ever!! We will look no further and so glad we found the perfect home when we come back!! Thank you again Jim & Tamara for allowing us to share your PIECE OF HEAVEN!!

Excellent stay
The outside was so relaxing! Everything was very clean, kitchen fully stocked, everyone had their own beach towel and full set of shower towels, beach chairs for everyone, and coolers to bring to the beach. Jim and Tamara are excellent hosts and great communicators. While you can walk the car was a plus and parking is never an issue. Would definitely go back!

Villa is very well set up for couples and kids. Great pool and pool bar area. We appreciated the laundry facilities and overall villa was very well equipped. All beds were super comfortable.

Christmas vacation
Jim and Tamara’s house was fantastic. We felt like we were staying at our own private resort. The pool and outdoor bar were fantastic! The interior of the house was just as beautiful and had everything we could have wanted. Jim was incredibly responsive from the time we booked our stay and even checked to make sure we got home ok. A first class host with a first class property! Hopefully we will be back! We had such a great Christmas vacation with our family!

Best Trip Ever
From the time we landed until the time we left our expectations were way over met. Owner Jim is nothing but amazing and welcomed us in his home with open arms like we were family. The yard and and pool were paradise and we spent every morning and evening enjoying every bit of it. The air conditioning works amazing and beds were so comfortable and cozy. Great kitchen space and any dishes, utensils, coolers, pots, pans, etc you may need they had it. We will be going back some day. You won't be disappointed that's for sure!!

About the host

Hosted by Jim & Tamara / Maria

Host profile image
My wife and I have traveled to Mexico and the Caribbean for many years. Aruba was on our bucket list for quite a long time and we finally got there in the winter of 2016. While enjoying our stay our now property managers told us about this property. When we went to see the property my wife pointed her finger ;) and told me that she wanted it... Well you know how the saying goes ... We purchased it in the summer of 2016 and I spent the good part of a year there designing and remodeling it. This will eventually be our retirement place so many of the decisions made along the way in designing and remodeling had quality in mind. So until we get to the point where we retire we hope those of you choosing to stay with us enjoy what we have to offer.

Why they chose this property

Noord and the Bakval corridor is highly desirable as it has quick/easy access to Palm, Malmok, Eagle, Boca Catalina, and Arashi Beaches. We are a very short walking distance from the highly rated Oak Restaurant.
My wife and I travel to Aruba 2-3 times a year and we are always doing upgrades and making improvements each time we are there.
We very much care that your stay in Aruba and at our place will be an enjoyable and memorable experience.
