My wife and I along with three adult children (2 sons and 1 daughter) stayed at this villa in Aruba. It was very clean and comfortable and it had most of the amenities required to manage home meals. We ate out most nights but the meals we had in were very nice. We sat outside in the atrium and grilled steaks and chicken from the local store located two blocks away. The kids each had a bedroom and felt comfortable, as did we. A second set of clean sheets were provided and needed as the beach sand always seemed to creep in, even after showers. Plenty of towels also available. The location is about 1/2 mile from the beach and high rise hotel shopping district was even a bit further but we enjoyed the walk. If you are not as mobile be sure to rent a car or have a driver. It is a little shorter to the bus stop but very easy to take the bus downtown Orajenstad and to other beaches, etc. We did this a few times.
The pool was a bit smaller then appeared to me in pictures but still very clean and refreshing to cool down from the hot sun. We spent a few afternoons just sitting poolside with a Bright (beer), catching rays, and swimming to cool down. The deck chairs were in great shape and there were pool floaties, beach equipment etc, all available for use. It had a nice rolling cooler and the beaches are all public so we loaded it up and wheeled beer to the beach. Much cheaper when you have 3 adult college kids :) The pool was cleaned one day and out of commission for 3 hours while we were there but we had other plans that day so no big deal.
The Island is very beautiful with nice clean beaches and this villa is in a great location to enjoy it. The people were all friendly and the house manager (Josse) was very accommodating. Josse stopped by the next day to get us the grill and was very helpful. He drove me to the store to show me where it was and also assisted in getting us transportation to the airport. He is very respectful of your space but don't be afraid to ask him questions because he will graciously help you and is very knowledgeable about the island.
The road this villi is on (Bakval) is a thoroughfare between two main roads the go up and down the island. There was a lot of traffic that uses Bakval to go between so I was surprised by the amount of traffic (It was Christmas/New Years so probably more then usual). Most of the walk is sidewalks but drivers don't slow down in Aruba so be careful walking in/near the streets.
