“I stayed here for my bachelorette this past weekend and it was amazing! The outside of the house was beautiful, and the inside was even better. Everything was spotless and fully stocked with everything we needed for cooking. The rooms were incredibly spacious and comfortably fit all 9 of us. Everyone had their own room and bathroom, which was a huge plus. The pool was perfect, and the kitchen had everything we needed. The hosts were super easy to reach and very responsive. We were so happy with our stay and can’t wait to come back!”

“This place was absolutely amazing for our stay! Hosts were very communicative and answered all our questions both leading up to the trip and during our stay. The house was in perfect condition when we arrived and even better than the pictures made it look. Plenty of space for everyone on our trip. Would absolutely stay again next time!”

“Overall amazing stay at Casiola Aruba! Incredible house that lived up to the pictures and even beyond. Stuart and Julia were very responsive and provided information as needed. The house was impeccably clean, stocked with lots of dish ware to accommodate 14 people. Only recommendation would be to include 14 beach towels, just a few more larger towels in general. Also they recommended Terra Escapes which I personally did not have a great experience with (no fault of theirs just something to note). Every guest however loved their stay in this house and it was truly gorgeous. We could even walk to some of our activities (Aruba Racquetball Club). It’s a must stay if you have a larger group!”

“My family of 7 was very pleased with this beautiful home. The home looked just like the pictures, and everything was in excellent condition (with the minor exception of the portable beach chairs--which is understandable given the harsh conditions of sand/sun/wind). We absolutely loved the pool and backyard, particularly because there was plenty of very comfortable seating both under roof and in the sun. The palm trees in the backyard were gorgeous, and there were beautiful birds and lizards all around. We did hear some barking dogs next door like one other reviewer mentioned, but it never bothered us. It was pretty short-lived, and it didn't sound particularly loud or menacing/annoying. I would definitely stay here again in a heartbeat if I had a large group. We hated to leave.”

“Very best house for large groups. The outdoor pool area is incredible. The inside of the house is large and spacious. Big enough for everyone to have their own private area and large common spaces for everyone gather together. The staff response time was amazing. We hired chef Ronald to cook a few meals and everything was perfect. Thank you Casiola. We can’t wait to go back.”

“Stuart & Julia,
We really enjoyed staying at the house. All the rooms were spacious, clean, and well-decorated. The kitchen was equipped with everything we needed. We greatly enjoyed the pool, loved the game room, and put the beach chairs to good use. When we had questions, you responded immediately and were very helpful every time. We truly enjoyed staying at the house with our friends and family. Everyone fell in love with the house and the island. We can’t wait to visit Aruba again, and we would strongly recommend booking accommodations with you.
Thank you very much!
Slav.”

“Opal 127 was a great place to stay at for our group of six adults and five young children. The home is well stocked and kept clean. We chose to do a mid stay cleaning with Casiola which was fantastic and the cleaners were so thorough! Overall, Casiola was one of the most well organized management companies I have stayed with. From check in to check out. There was a lot of trash left over from prior guests in the containers outside which was removed within an hour of calling. Pool needed cleaning due to a lot of leaves that fell from the wind - taken care of the next morning before we woke up. One day we found a major leak in the primary bedroom coming from the ceiling A/C. I called the team and someone was at our house in 30 minutes and the plumber resolved the issue within a few hours. I was so impressed with this team, I would definitely stay with them again!”

“The Casiola team was fabulous. The Barbulet concierge they recommended was great too - Freya picked up all my grroceries and put them away. Any questions I had were answered right away. The house was beautiful.
Only a few issues during our stay: The refrigerator ice maker stopped working and we had to buy bags of ice.
The gardener came on Saturday 6/15/2024 and were weren\'t expecting him. He identified himself when I asked who he was.
The patio step down by the pool is extremely dangerous. 5 minutes after I arrived I went out to look at the pool and was looking straight ahead not at the floor. My foot twisted on the step and I fell. I had to ice, elevate and compress my entire stay and was in pain. I go to the foot doctor tomorrow. A suggestion - after my fall of course we noticed the watch your step signs. They were covered with dirt so they weren\'t that visible. My brother cleaned the signs so that you can see them better, however a few people missed the step during our stay and stubbed their toes (didn\'t get injured though). I think Casiola should address this area asap so other guests in the future don\'t hurt themselves.

“The house was great. More towels would be nice based on number of guests. The ledge in the back was very dangerous as you know we had an injury at the house. When we called the team they promptly came over and addressed the situation and added stickers. It would nice to remind guests to bring or have a Bluetooth speaker for outside. We spent a lot of time there. ”

“We loved the bunk room and game room as it worked perfectly for the 4 boys in our group. We also loved the back yard….the pool, nice outdoor furnishings, and outdoor kitchen. 2 of the bathrooms hairdryers did not work. Also, the smaller of the upstairs king bedrooms had a shower that would never warm up so one couple took cold showers all week. ”
Amy, 01/05/2024

“We shared this house with one other family and the layout and spaces fit our needs perfectly. We had 4 teenage boys who appreciated the bunk room which fit all of them as well as the attached game room with their own TV and sectional. We did not need to use the 5th bedroom with the 2 twin beds in it but be aware that this room is inside of the master suite as this is not clear in the listing. The out door space was a huge hit for all of us. The pool was used everyday. We cooked at the outdoor kitchen. I appreciated that all of the outdoor furniture was in good condition and of high quality. We also enjoyed watching the iguanas that would lay out on the roof each day. The beach was a 0.8 mile walk on quiet neighborhood streets and a short trail at the bottom end of the lagoon area which basically comes out immediately behind the Ritz Carlton hotel. We did rent cars, which I recommend as this was a pretty long walk if you wanted any beach gear along.”
Amy, 01/05/2024

“Quiet neighborhood, except for barking dogs day in a day out, spacious, well equipped kitchen, patio, etc. Some small suggestions would be the height of the kitchen fan is very low for cooking over cooktop, trip hazard is along the patio walking towards pool, where tile drops down. Pool Maintenance was done early afternoon of our LAST day, making it so we couldn’t swim for 2 hours per pool company. TV’s were a little difficult to operate for guests who are not familiar with the TV. Coffee maker was tempermental……possibly an informational notebook could be in the home for various equipment such as TV, A/C, kitchen appliances, etc. Propane tanks were empty/low so maybe that should be on the check list when turning over the house. As a family we totally enjoyed our stay in such a spacious home for all of us to enjoy ..”

“We had a fabulous week! We truly lucked out that our original home was managed by Casiola Aruba as it was sold after we booked it. The team at Casiola jumped right on it and found another exceptional property for us. And we even saved money as we were able to book direct rather than incur the fees of VRBO.
It was also key to have a management company to do things like deliver propane and answer questions about the home and the area during and prior to our stay.
Our only suggestion would be to not be so stingy with the toiletries and cleaning supplies. A small bar of soap / bathroom, 2 rolls of TP, 1 small bottle of dish soap, 5 dishwasher pods and 1 carton of laundry soap is not nearly enough for a home that accommodates 14. I know this was clearly stated in the check-in details, but nobody is going to pack TP nor do they expect to have to buy it.
There was also a safety concern in the homes beautiful back yard. The home at Opal 127 has a slight step down of 2\" from the raised area closest to the home to the pool deck. The surface materials are the same color so there was no way to discern the difference. It took a few days for all of us to get used to the step down. Fortunately, we didn\'t have any elderly people in our group who could have easily fallen and severely hurt themselves. If we could make a suggestion, a beautiful scroll or swirl in dark brown along the step down would differentiate the two levels and could be a beautiful design detail supporting the style of the home.
Overall we were extremely pleased with the service and friendliness of the Casiola staff and the support they provided. In the future, we would look to book directly through your company rather than starting through VRBO.
Thank you for helping us make a memorable week!

“The house was absolutely spotless. It had everything we needed to be comfortable. And when I requested assistance with something, Casiola was there ASAP.
I am disappointed that the description did not accurately reflect the house. It really is a 4 bedroom house. What Casiola calls a 5th bedroom, is really an office INSIDE the master suite, with 2 children’s beds. We were a group of 5 adults. Luckily my 5th guest cancelled last minute. If I had to put an adult in another room INSIDE the master bedroom suite, I would have demanded that we be moved to a different property.”

“Overall, the stay was fantastic!! Check in was a breeze. And Casiola was immediately responsive to the minor issues we had. The place was SPOTLESS. One thing to note: this really is a 4 bedroom house. The 5th bedroom (2 twin beds) is located INSIDE the master suite.”

“We had several problems. Starting about the hours that swimming pool cleaners came, old doors with unconfortable sounds, and finishing with the sever problem about sewage. I have to highlight the Casiola\'s response manager was quick and gave us appropriate solutions. I recommend showing an interior plan of the house to get an idea of its distribution.
Leaving aside the above problems, our stay was incredible. Casiola offers really nice places to combine with the amazing island of Aruba and have the most amazing experience for your vacations.”

“Had great time. The place is spotless and clean with amazing layout. Everyone had the BeST nights and naps sleep here … we were a group and everyone really appreciated the powerful AC that was able to keep the house cool and comfortable throughout the whole time with no surprises. The pool, the bbq area, the playroom, all bedrooms … everything is perfect. Linens, beds, and LOVED the kitchen, very well equipped. You can tell they believe on cooking there:) very safe neighborhood, with 3/5 min drive to all the happening yet I wouldnt say walkable. Also, make sure you take a note that one of the rooms (Master Bedroom suite) is kind of connected with the other room with two Irwin beds for kids - which is an AMAZING feature to have and worked for us as we personally traveling with two younger kids, yet if - in case you are not - and someone else ending up taking that room you might lack your privacy, even though there is a door there.
Loved the house a lot! Would def stay again! Thank you”

“The house is exactly like the pictures. It is spacious, clean, the backyard/pool area is amazing. It is tucked back in a quiet neighborhood, even though there is some construction going on you can't hear it. There are a few neighbor dogs who enjoyed barking but nothing super irritating. The kitchen is stocked with everything you need to cook. However, there are no condiments, extras at all so if you want even salt, you will need to purchase. We had plenty of towels, beach towels, the washer and dryer saved us!! We had an issue with the dryer but they fixed quickly. Plenty of shower items but we did not receive hand soap and had to purchase ourselves. Beds were comfortable, air conditioning was a blessing. The house is very quiet, almost too much as you hear every creek, groan, door opening/closing. The hosts were top notch and amazing at communicating and help when we had issues. Doors are clunky but you get use to it. Great location to access beach. recommend staying here!”

“Our stay was amazing! Everything looked like the photos but honestly maybe even better than the photos posted. I went with a group of friends and family (12) and everyone had enough space and enjoyed themselves to the fullest. I have no complaints what so ever. Anytime I had a question or concern it was addressed immediately. Kaylee was so helpful with recommendations like our chef Ronald who was beyond professional but also really friendly and easy to work with and his food was amazing. Kaylee also helped me with an at home massage day which was a big hit for our group and we enjoyed every minute of our spa day. Kaylee answered any other questions I had in a timely fashion. The pool area was beautiful and we spent a lot of time outside enjoying scenery. Stuart and Julia, job well done and we will definitely be coming back. Thank you for letting us enjoy your home for the week. ❤️”

“Our surprise birthday trip for my significant other was amazing! The house is pretty accurate according to the images on the site however, there are some things that future guests should be aware of.
The listing cites this property as having a gorgeous view. While the house itself is beautiful and spacious, the upstairs balcony has no view now that there\'s home completely blocking it. You should probably change the listing so that it\'s not misleading. Also, the dogs across from the pool are super loud and tend to bark more in the morning, dying down throughout the day (or at least we don\'t know bc we were out exploring). Another tip that future guests should be aware of.
I also wish that the pool was clean prior to our arrival. As soon as we checked in, the birthday boy wanted to take a dip but we couldn\'t because the pool was a mess. Having no set time or a pool guy on call was a bit of an inconvenience. I\'d advise you to make sure it\'s cleaned and to make sure that the rest of the house is cleaned, stocked, and that the games are operating properly (the air hockey table didn\'t work) prior to guest arrivals.
Lastly, I\'d say that fly traps are DEFINITELY needed. They are ruthless (along with the mosquitos!!!!). Maybe invest in electric fly and mosquito traps.
Additional tip: If it\'s your first time in Aruba and you\'re traveling with a group under 5, I\'d suggest you rent a car. Taxi fares can add up pretty quickly and they don\'t accommodate more than 5 ppl, so our group of 8 had to split up from time to time. Oh and BRING OFF BUG SPRAY! You\'ll need it to fight off the mosquitos...they are ruthless! For Aruba activities, planning or ANYTHING Barbulet Concierge should be your go-to. FREYA IS AMAZINGGGGGGG!! She helped us with our ground transportation, decor, taxis, just everything!
Aside from this, our stay was quite lovely. After it was cleaned, we thoroughly enjoyed the pool and backyard area. There was so much space that allowed us to both spread out and congregate when we wanted. The house, beaches, and restaurants were lovely and we had a great time. We didn\'t want to leave but once we did, we were happy and in great spirits! ”

“We really enjoyed our stay here. This is our fourth time with Airbnb in Aruba and this house iocation was quieter and more private than others in the same area. The hosts were very responsive, for example, there were 10 beach chairs for 10 guests and two were broken, we mentioned it to the host and they had six brand new chairs delivered the next day. the house was very clean and modern, climate control was excellent, pool area was clean and enjoyable. Would highly recommend for a large group of 8 to 10 people!”

“Stuart and Julia are EXCELLENT HOSTS! Responsive and accommodating helping in any way they can to make their guests stay comfortable and enjoyable.
The house itself is spacious; We were a group of 12: 6 adults and 6 kids: 6-12 yrs age and had no problem with space and comfort. Location of the home is in a cul de sac which was nice. By care it is approximately 5 min to Arashi beach and 10 in to Eagle. 7 min to the large grocery store. All convenient and easy.
We had problems with gnats and mosquitoes in the back yard which required bug spray just to allow us to stay outside and enjoy the pool and dining table. Stuart was very accommodating and had the backyard fumigated twice, on consecutive days per our request but unfortunately it did not help much! On day one there was a musty smell in the upstairs bed rooms, which cleared out after opening up the windows in the bathrooms, which remained open for our stay to prevent the smell from coming back. The kitchen was stocked with sufficient dining and glass ware, but not a lot of spices or condiments, which was not a big deal as we bought what we needed for the week.
They provided plenty of beach chairs which we did use every day on the beach and were tremendously helpful.
Overall the hosts were amazing and probably the best I have interacted with during my many AirBNB stays over the years. They truly made the stay worth while. There was construction next door which led to significant noise pollution through out our stay. Unfortunately the hosts were not aware of this and simply bringing this to their attention resulted in them making a partial refund, which we had not asked for but was much appreciated.
I would definitely book again any home which is hosted by Stuart and Julia, who truly attempted to make sure we had a wonderful visit. Thank you.
Shomeet”

“You can expect great service and great communication when booking this place. We stayed here with 12 people 6 kids and 6 adults. It was the perfect setup where we all came together but had our own privacy when wanted. The outdoor area was our go to. It's beautiful and everything we needed. Great location as it's near most attractions, beaches, and supermarkets. The game night extra service was a nice touch. Would have loved to have the movie night available but over all the experience was a great one. Kudos to the owners for making our first stay in Aruba a pleasant and very welcoming one.”

I came with a group of 12 women for a bachelorette trip - it was convenient to perfection having the house at the location that it is in. It is spacious, clean, modern and super FUN!! The hosts are so friendly and give you a sense of a local familiarity. Each of our calls were answered as needed and they provided enough necessitates for all of our needs. We rented a car and took it to the beach (3 minute drive) most of the nights we went out we also took it - because majority of the happening was there with the exception of going to Oranjestad. We walked to the beach by the house (through open ground area) - beautiful view, but we didn't swim on that part. Cant wait to come back!!!!!”

“Hi,
I rented the house for my bachelor's party and i have to say the house met every expectation. Overall the house is amazing, great size rooms, great kitchen, amazing pool and patio! The house is fully stocked with beach gear from coolers to towels and chairs. We were twelve people and it was very comfortable for everybody.
I recommend to rent a car, walking is not an option if you want to go to the market, beach and tourist area.(Host provided us with a GPS)
I highly recommend the Villa!!!
Also, I want to say that JULIA and THE TEAM were incredible hosts all around!
AMAZING HOUSE, AMAZING LOCATION, AMAZING VIEWS!!!
Ps: Only thing we thought it was missing was a couple of hammocks”

“Communication was great. we had 3 issues that were fixed within the hour of me making them aware. the kitchen sink has a leak twice and was fixed right away. One of the. bathrooms upstairs had ants coming from behind, they immediately fixed that we well as cleaned the bathroom and left some insect killer spray that we didn’t even use since they fixed the problem. It was 7 of us total and we had a great time. the house was clean, in a nice quiet area that is still close tp the main strip. I had the master suite and although the balcony was a good relaxing spot, the only view it had was a house being built— I am sure the view prior to this had to be amazing. If you’re an ice lover (my whole group needs ice with pretty much all of our drinks)—- the ice machine doesn’t make more ice, so definitely buy some from the grocery store. We were also only provided 3 garbage bags which we filled up in 3-4 days and has to take from our friends in another airbnb. as well as there was limited dishwashing pods. otherwise it still gets a 10/10!”

“If you’re looking for a home away from home in Aruba, look no further than Villa Azul. I traveled to Aruba with five friends this trip, and our stay was absolutely amazing…one of THE BEST vacation Airbnb experiences I’ve had. We had the greatest time and I wouldn’t have wanted to stay anywhere else this time around on the island.
Julia and Stuart were so attentive to our needs. Rapidly responsive, I never had to wait an extended period of time for assistance. The villa is stunning. It comes equipped with nearly everything you need, and if something is missing, they’ll bring it right away.
The villa is spacious so you never feel like you’re on top of one another.
Their concierge service is fantastic. Freya and Judith helped make my birthday celebration stress-free.
Rest assured that if you book Villa Azul, you will be well taken care of.
Lastly - I know some of the reviews say the villa is far from everything. I think I loved that it wasn’t directly where the hotel crowd was, and the closest beach is maybe 10 minutes (I think less). We did not rent a car either, just taxi services and we’re just fine.
Thanks so much for a great experience and wonderful birthday celebration Julia and Stuart!”

Check in was easy & the code was ready when we arrived. We did have a couple of issues with the dishwasher- but the hosts were VERY quick to respond & sent someone to fix the problem. They were also kind enough to send cleaning staff to go over & above to make sure we were happy with the resolution- we did need to have have them come twice , but again- very quick & responsive.
There is construction going on in the backyard that at times can start early, but that is part of new development. Just more of a heads up to those who are looking to book soon & that was the only reason for 4 stars on value.
Was a perfect location for our friends getaway!!”

“First time at a Airbnb & my last - The kitchen faucet started leaking and it was water all over the floor. The sheets weren’t the cleanest. The property seemed poorly taking care of. Once I got the kitchen faucet taken care of, the bathroom on the main floor started to leak as well. It was a domino effect. Half of my day was dealing with the airbnb and I’m on vacation. This is the last thing I want to deal with on vacation.”

“The sink in the kitchen started to leak. It was water all over the floor. I couldn’t leave out and enjoy vacation because now I have to use my international calls and call the customer service number to get someone out here to fix it. I spent the whole day wasted inside the house.
The AC is not easy to work. I called multiple times to get someone to cut the AC on because it was so hot in the house.
The sheets on the beds were dirty and I had to wash them. The house really gave me a headache those couple of days. One of the bathrooms on the main floor started leaking as well.
The house really put a damper on my stay in Aruba. This was my first time getting and Airbnb and it will be my last.”

“13 of us stay at Casiola villa for 7 day . House is beautiful and there is plenty of room for everyone. Outdoor area is great and the only negative aspect is ongoing construction next door. However it’s not noisy and mostly noticeable from second floor.Beach and restaurants are not walking distance, 10 min by car. Owners are extremely responsive even to a smallest issue you bring up. We had amazing time and we are highly recommend this house.”

“Best Management Company Ever! - We loved the house and enjoyed our stay very much! The management company went above and beyond to ensure we had everything we needed and were unbelievably responsive from first contact while booking the reservation. Our second day in Aruba, my husband cracked his tooth and was in extreme pain. It was Good Friday and every dentist was closed. Stuart, from the management company, found a dentist willing to come in and examine him. She did a root canal and prescribed an antibiotic (all within 30 minutes). Great dentist! Thinking of starting a dental tourism business. 🙂 Our entire trip to Aruba was wonderful. Definitely a full service rental company and better than any service we could have received at a five star hotel. ”

“This house was everything & more! Stuart & Julia really have a beautiful home and my friends and I had such a great time there. It comfortably accommodated 13 people, and we were able to get our few questions answered very quickly. Also, it was such a nice & large area that it made you feel like you were secluded from reality. Also, they have a guestbook! Absolutely loved that because it allowed you to share your story with future guest, we’d definitely stay there or any home the are hosted by this love couple!”

“Great House, Management Company Was Fantastic - I stayed in this home over the holiday break in 2020. There were 8 of us in total, 6 adults and 2 teenagers--3 different families. There was a lot of space, and we were very comfortable. The garage was converted to living space, and when combined with the bedroom and bathroom that was connected to it, it was like an apartment on its own. We put the college boys there and they had their own space to play ping pong (or use the balls for other hijinks!), watch TV, etc, until all hours of the night, without disturbing anyone else. The teen girls shared a bedroom that led directly into the pool, which they loved. <br/>I would like to mention one of the bedrooms is actually inside the master bedroom, so it shares a bathroom with the master bedroom. This worked out fine for us, but if someone intends on using the master bedroom and would like complete privacy, you won't be able to use that extra bedroom. The master bedroom was enormous though, and very lovely, and the extra bedroom was large w two twin beds (or push it together to make one large king.)<br/>The house was very clean, and Stuart, the property manager, was very helpful with restaurant suggestions, etc.<br/>Because of the pandemic, we did not go out to eat as much as we would have liked, but we did go to Zeerover(fresh shrimp and fish but all fried)<br/>Flying Fishbone (good, not great, maybe not worth the cost)<br/>Salt and Pepper (yummy sangria and good tapas)<br/>Eduardo's Beach Shack (Vegan, good acai bowls and drinks)<br/>Dutch Pancake House (good breakfast/dutch pancakes)<br/>Taste My Aruba (yummy)<br/>Matthew's (right on the beach, good)<br/><br/>I was not overwhelmed by the food in Aruba. None of the restaurants stood out. Salt and Pepper had good sangria and tapas. It was fun to eat there.<br/><br/>The kitchen was stocked with pots/pans/dishes/cooking utensils/basic spices and oil, so it was very easy for us to cook, which we did a lot. <br/><br/>Overall, it was a nice trip, and I would recommend this ”

“I had the pleasure of renting with Stuart and Julia. I spoke with Julia 100% of the time. Let me tell you... AMAZING. Communication was superb even before renting. She accommodated all my request, especially with an early check in and late check out. She was absolutely amazing. The house was beautiful and so clean especially with this pandemic. Pool was nice and warm. TV was a Roku TV with a Netflix channel already set up! The AC stopped working, I contacted Julia and she had maintenance come with in moments and had the AC up and running (AC is cold, perfect for Aruba). She also directed me to Freya, who is equally a doll, she helped me 24/7, and even found me the best private chef and activities for my friends and I to do for my birthday. My friends and I can not wait to go back! Definitely renting this house for every stay”

“Stuart and Julia are great hosts. Their communication leading up to the trip was second to none. They always replied quickly and had some great tips for us. They also assisted greatly in our unique check in situation which was appreciated so much. The house was very nice and worked well for our group. As I stated earlier, the only thing we wish we would have known about was that the 5th bedroom is actually part of the Master Suite, thus causing us to not have our own bathroom. Anyone staying here will have a great time. The location is superb, the house was very clean and located in a very safe neighborhood. One of our group is a runner and she ran four days and felt completely at ease at all times. We wish we would have known about the shed out back which has beach chairs in it earlier in our trip, don't forget that when you arrive. We highly recommend Arashi Beach. You can take your coolers and chairs there and the water is amazing! Thank you Stuart and Julia for helping make our initial trip to Aruba a great one!”

The pool was the perfect temperature, the location to the beach was ideal. We enjoyed Arashi Beach and would highly recommend it. The property was clean and well maintained. If we needed anything the caretaker, Stuart, took care of it and was always super friendly. I would definitely recommend this property to anyone.”

“Two weeks in Paradise - The villa, the location and the management team are beyond compare. The house is wonderful with a generous amount of space. The backyard kitchen and pool kept us outside even when we were not at the nearby beaches. Stuart and Julia responded with any issues immediately and I can not say enough good things about them. I guess the best compliment I can make is that I have already promised my family to return again next year.”

“We thoroughly enjoyed our week in Aruba... It was an amazing experience and the extra attention to corn hole was amazing and so appreciated. The entire experience, including all the wonderful communications from Julia and Freya prior to arrival, our private chef, right through the checkout process was great!! The Villa was beautiful and fit our crew of 12 with minor modifications. The back courtyard was just amazing and where we spent the majority of our time playing pool volleyball, cornhole and boardgames. Any issues that did arise Stuart was right there to assist. Stuart, we feel we made a new friend and plan to visit again. We can't thank you enough for making our "first" Aruba family vacation such a wonderful and memorable event!!!!”

The location was amazing being very close to lots of beaches as well as too many activities in the high-rise hotels. The management was always available when we needed them!

“28th birthday celebration! - I absolutely loved my stay not only in Aruba but the home as well. There was plenty of space for that free alone time one might need during a big group of girls. I loved waking up before everyone and enjoying the sun and pool before taking on the day. You all were great hosts and fulfilled all desires!! The only thing I would recommend to other guests is possibly renting a car or really explaining the taxi use prior to. I thought we would be able to walk to more places from our location. Although the taxi rides were fine it was just a slight adjustment we had to get used to. I definitely will be back to Aruba and want to check our your other properties and if not, Villa Azul is home!!! ”

“I celebrated my birthday in Aruba with a group of 12 friends and family members. Villa Azul was the perfect place for us to call home during our trip. Words cannot even describe how immaculate Stuart’s villa is. Pictures do not do it justice! Everything in this beautiful home was exactly as described. The details in the decor, the amenities and the items left to keep the children on our trip busy were all perfect. The check-in process was simple and Stuart personally welcomed my entire group with open arms. The villa is located in a beautiful and safe neighborhood very close to Palm Beach, shopping and great local restaurants. There are ample spaces for parking as the villa is located in a cul-de-sac. The views from the balcony were absolutely breathtaking. I would definitely recommend Stuart’s home for anyone traveling in a group. I will surely be back very soon. Thank you so much Stuart for your hospitality! This birthday will be one my friends, family and I will never forget!”

“Girls trip to Aruba - The management company was absolutely amazing. Stuart was there to answer all of my questions, and anything I needed resolved was handled immediately. The locations is great! We rented a car which was very clutch for trips to the store or to go out to eat, but we also took taxis for late night partying. Everything was between 5-20mins from us, so I definitely appreciated that. <br/><br/>The house is massive so you don’t have to worry about space at all. I thought it would be a bit more modern in person but it looks like the house is a bit older, but nothing at all concerning. I would for sure stay again, and if not at this specific property definitely one of the properties with the same management company.”

“Living the Dream! - Villa Azul is exactly like the pictures yet the pictures cannot capture the serenity of this beautiful home. This was a birthday trip with 9 people and those that wanted time to themselves had it because there is so much space. We even had a 1 am laughing fit upstairs that no one else in the house heard. <br/>The house is spotless, well equipped and simply perfect.<br/>Ardeline, Stuart and Julia are SO SWEET and accommodating. <br/>We've decided to make this our yearly retreat. ”

“July vacation 2019 - The house is absolutely amazing!!! We had 9 adults and 4 children in our party, and we had more than enough space for everyone. The house looks just like the pictures. It was very clean and in a great, safe neighborhood. Freya came by to greet us when we arrived, and right before we left. Also, Stuart came by when a breaker blew in one of the bedrooms, and had it fixed for us before we came back from dinner. I would absolutely recommend this house and can't wait to stay here again!!!”

“This home was wonderful and spacious for our family vacation. We travelled with two other couples and appreciated that everyone had their own space. The kitchen, living and dining space allowed everyone to spend quality time together. The pool is gorgeous and well-maintained. We definitely took advantage of the outdoor bar and grill area.
We rented a van for the week and enjoyed touring the island. Villa Azul was a great home base. The beach was a comfortable 25 minute walk or a short drive. Parking was never an issue and there were many beaches within a short distance.”

“Wonderful House in Aruba - Villa Azul Aruba was perfect for our family of 13. It was large and spacious, beautifully decorated, and provided plenty of space for everyone. Upstairs my husband and I enjoyed the huge Master Suite, which had the upstairs balcony with the view of the water. Our daughter and her husband also had access to the balcony off their bedroom. Their children used the twin bedroom outside of the Master. Downstairs the 2 bedrooms were on opposite ends of the house. This provided separation for my daughter's family with an 11 month old who sometimes wakes during the night. He was far away from the others and did not disturb them. Pack and Play and high chair were provided. The other downstairs bedroom was off a huge den and had the queen bunkbeds. This was perfect for our son's family of 4. It was almost as if they had their own private suite!<br/>The kitchen was well supplied with pots, pans, dishes, glasses, flatware,etc. There were even plastic plates for the children. Dish detergent, dishwasher detergent, paper towels, coffee, and basic spices were provided. However only 1 extra trash bag.<br/>Well supplied with towels, beach towels, beach chairs, coolers, pool toys. <br/>The pictures do not do this house justice. It is lovely and very clean. Attention paid to detail.<br/>Ardeline and Freya were most helpful and responsive to all emails and calls.<br/>”

“We had such a nice time in this house. There are many places, including the back yard area, for guest to go to for fun and relaxation. We walked to the beach almost every day taking the short cut through the "lake". You can only do this when it's dry of course so a car might be preferred if the lake is full as it's a pretty long walk around. It was a quiet neighborhood but there are homes being constructed which can be noisy if it's going on during your stay so good to check first. Overall, we had a fabulous week and will be back!!”

“We rented this beautiful luxury home for a birthday weekend getaway for my wife and 7 friends. This is the absolute perfect venue for a medium/large group!
It is close enough to everything on the island, yet far enough away from the large resort hotels. Everyone in our group felt like they had their own personal space which was important.
The pool, air conditioning was amazing and beds extremely comfortable. We did rent a car but only used it to go to and from the beach and the airport. You can easily call aruba taxi to get around. We would call taxis at night to go out and were on the strip in less than 10 minutes. There are a few grocery stores nearby and the house has a really amazing indoor and outdoor kitchen/grill space.
I can't say enough good things about this property and how it was managed. We did have an electrical issue after we arrived. However, it was resolved by the time we came back from dinner!
Excellent communication and would definitely choose this property again in a heartbeat on our next trip to aruba. That private pool all light up at night is amazing to come back to!”

Stuart and his team were also incredibly attentive and responsive to our needs, always making sure we were having a pleasant stay. The only comment I have is that the house could use a little more maintenance and upkeep. This didn't really impact us though. Would definitely stay with Stuart again.”

“Great Family Vacation Spot! - Our family of 8 had a wonderful time at Villa Azul. Stuart and Freya were great and their suggestions and service were on the money. Upon arrival late Saturday, we discovered some minor problems with door locks and electrical - Stuart addressed these problems immediately and was very accommodating with every personal request. Home was very clean but there is a bit of wear and tear compared to the online photos - this is not unusual for a rental...nevertheless, it did not affect our experience. If vacationing with a large group, we highly recommend a Chef night - Ricky was great and allot of fun....Freya set this up for us and she handled grocery delivery prior to arrival. The local grocery store was an easy 5 minute drive and the high rise hotel strip was an easy 10 minute drive. You can’t really walk to any beach or restaurant so plan on a car rental with a good GPS. Overall, Villa Azul is a great Aruba destination and we will target this rental in the future or another one of Stuart’s rentals on RentStar.”

“My family and I were a group of 11, we all ranged in ages and obviously is taste as well. One thing we can all agree on is how wonderful this home is and how helpful the hosts were. Although we were always busy and didn’t have a chance to meet, they were incredibly thoughtful and detail oriented. They left a GPS for us at our rental location, gave us needed information prior to our arrival, and the home was fully equipped with everything we needed and the house itself was truly beautiful. If you’re looking to accommodate a large group and you also want to make sure your trip to Aruba is memorable, stay at this house! It’s fantastic! One thing I will say is that it’s in a newly constructed residential area, so there were a few homes that were also being rented by tourists and we’re equally as beautiful. Once you get a hang of the GPS, you’ll see that there are a lot of things near the home! All in all the home was incredibly spacious and beautiful and I would definitely recommend this home to anyone traveling with a large group!”

“Amazing! Beautiful! Fantastic! - I stayed at this villa with a group of 11 people and it was absolutely amazing!! The house was beautiful and looked exactly how it’s pictured if not better. It is modern with a beautiful kitchen, the best bathrooms and nice game room! The pool and backyard were my favorite part of the house! The renters/concierge were very friendly and attentive. We did have an issue with the electricity in one of the bedrooms but we called the concierge, the maintenance man arrived in less than 30 minutes and fixed it! The location was perfect. The drive to the high rise was less than 10 minutes from the house. I highly recommend this villa and hopefully will be returning very soon!”

“Great multi family stay all around!!! - Villa azul was a great place to stay for multi families. We all had our private space and the house was beautiful. A few things that would make it a 5 star would be that the deeper cleanliness of the home. Vents, behind beds and light fixtures were visually in need of cleaning! All other cleanliness was perfect. Another issue we had was the back doir was difficult to lock. We had a bee hive that was supposed to be taken care of and they never came. My son got stung! Another thing that would be great would be to include a cleaning crew for a light cleaning mid-week. All in all, the house was more than beautiful and would definitely reccamed this home to anyone vacationing in aruba!! ”

“Family getaway! - We loved staying at Villa Azul. It was very well equipped with everything we needed and loved having the grill. The pool was a plus when coming home from the beach! There was plenty of room - the only thing we would have liked would be to have some chairs around the table in the entry way - we like to play games in the evening and that limited our game time. Thanks for allowing us to use your home for a vacation and look forward to returning in the near future.”

“This villa is truly amazing! Met all our expectations, and then some. I would recommended this villa to all my friends and family. Our family has been to Aruba six times, but I have to say, this has been the best experience by far. The host and his staff, top notch. Answered to all our question and needs. truly a five star plus villa.”

“The perfect villa for a big group - 9 girls stayed at Villa Azul for a bachelorette for 4 nights and we couldn't have asked for more. We did have some trouble working the stove and oven but no worries, one phone call to Stuart and he was over in a few minutes. Super accommodating and the hosts are amazing and helpful. They left a beach towel for us in each room as well as body and face towels in the bathrooms. We had everything we needed in the house, it even came with champagne flutes, blender, Bluetooth speakers, I mean you name it, it's there! It was the perfect location -- with nearby beaches, an amazing grocery store called Superfood, and restaurants. They even dropped off the Garmin GPS at the car rental company so we can find our way to the house from the airport. The house had more than enough room for us and the pool was great! We had 5 floaties and thought it would take up the whole pool but we had more than enough space. Love the flowers wrapped around the house in the back! I would definitely use Rentstar again when I return to Aruba! ”

“Our party of 9 really enjoyed our first Airbnb experience. We have stayed at many of the local high-rise & low-rise properties when we have traveled as a family. This trip we were joined with another family and were looking for something roomier and we hit the jackpot with Villa Azul. Everything was top notch and if there were any issues Stuart took care of it immediately. Located just a minute drive from the roundabout in front of the Ritz Carlton we enjoyed the proximity to Arashi beach and liked having a small market right around the corner for all the little stuff we forgot or ran out of. Thanks again for all your help and you will probably see us again soon!”

“I am a stickler for a clean lodging area..and feeling comfortable away from home. I was worried that finding such accommodations would be hard for 9 people. But, Villa Azul was perfect!!! Clean, beautiful, efficient and amazing!! The pool was a hit for kids and picky teenagers. Our family stayed for a week and felt as it it was our own. No complaints!!!
Stuart is friendly and helpful. Thank you for making our trip so memorable. ”

“McMansion - 5 Star House for a 5 star Island. I can't think of a better way to spend time in Aruba. After long adventures during the day it was a great to come back to an immaculate house with a pool to relax in. This house offered everything from a full kitchen to a personal concierge via mobile app. There were no hidden charges (per guest fees) so it made it really flexible to add more people to my group trip. Overall 10/10!”

“This house was amazing and beautiful. It comfortably fit all 12 of our friends and was perfect for our vacation. The pool is awesome (as is the fish wallpaper!). The house is a 20-25 minute walk to the beach (unless you cut through the swamp land in the back which cuts the time down to 15). We cannot recommend this house highly enough and would definitely rent it again. ”

“Aruba for a Large Party - Look No Further - Just wanted to say that this was an excellent property for our party size. I was worried at first upon booking 5 months before our vacation but it had far exceeded my expectations. We had a party of 15 (8 adults, 5 kids, and 2 toddlers). I wasn't sure where everyone was going to stay but it was far big enough for everyone to have their space. Amenities were plentiful and accommodating. Did not need much help from host since everything was available. The location was near everything we wanted to do: beaches, hotels, restaurants, golf, supermarkets. Just a few speed bumps. The GPS left for us to use did not have the correct coordinates and the router extender did not work properly upstairs but they did not deter our trip one bit. There was far things to do to keep up busy on the beautiful island. The consensus was that this was the best decision for our large party and would love to visit again in the future! ????????????”

“I stayed at this villa with 12 other girls for a bachelorette. The space was beyond spacious and very lovely and exactly as pictured. The villa is slightly confusing to get to because none of the villas are numbered in numerical order. Before arriving, please remember to screen shot the door code cuz when I arrived, I had no service. The only lack of communication was when I did arrive and couldnt get in contact with Stuart. But throughout the stay, he was better about communication. The first day we didn't have enough towel and they dropped it off the next day. We had a minor problem with the fridge because that it stayed at 67 degrees for a whole day.
The location was great and easy to get to other areas of the island. I highly recommend this villa!”

“A week in Paradise - Me and my friends have stayed in Villa Azul week of April 10. The Villa is beautiful and exactly what we have hoped for. It's conveniently located close to best beaches, hotels and restaurants. Rentstar was helpful and answered our emails in a timely manner. They recommended Barbulet Concierge Services that arranged an amazing private chef dinner for us at the Villa. <br/><br/>We have found everything we needed such as towels, dishes etc. The only few thing we would suggest to make Villa even better is replacing a toaster that was burning bread, replacing some frying pans that were scratched up and checking the washer that seemed to be leaking .<br/><br/>Overall we had an amazing time at Villa Azul and we would recommend it to anyone who is looking for a beautiful place to stay while in Aruba.”

“incredible home! - This is a fantastic home, much better than the pictures. I would give it 6 stars if I could. Great pool, great kitchen. The beds are super comfortable. The bathrooms are beautiful. There is table tennis room on the first floor with an addition room that has two bunk beds. The sunset views from the patio and the deck are just amazing. Book it and enjoy!”

“Stuart was beyond helpful. Are taxi cab got us lost for about two hours. we called Stuart in the middle of the night he then guided us home. By the way we were three minutes from the strip. The house was amazing any issues were addressed and taken care of immediately. Had a wonderful trip. The only think I feel is the house needs a little TLC. you know the things you look over at home but you live with. ”

“Villa azul es una casa muy linda en un sector bonito, cerca de la playa pero se hace imperativo el alquiler de un carro, cuenta con todas las comodidades para pasar un tiempo en familia de sol playa ; la recomiendo totalmente y agradezco la atención recibida por parte de Julia y su equipo .”

“BEST VILLA EVER!!! - We came to Aruba for our wedding so we wanted a villa that would house the bridal party and ourselves! No complaints!!! Best villa we ever stayed in! It is even more beautiful in pictures and there are no extra charges at the end of the stay unlike some other property management companies. Stewart is great and checked us in and told us exactly how to use everything! Ardeline and Julia were awesome during the booking process. From now on, we will only rent from Rentstar Aruba because they are professional and friendly. One thing I would suggest if you are coming with a big group and you don't have time, ask Rentstar if they can purchase a few things for you in advance (like coffee, creamer, tea, snacks, etc). It will make it much easier. If not, there is a superfood about 5 mins drive away that has everything you need! Thanks again for everything Ardeline, Julia and Stewart!”

“Nice property - Beautiful property. If want to be in the middle of things wouldn't recommend this though, just stay in a hotel. Although 5 min away it becomes bothersome not being right on Beach and in middle of things. Very pretty yes, but beds also very very hard! Several doors needed some repair and we're extremely hard to shut or flew open. One of the vents in the bathroom was just completely open. Not sure what was up with that. Several chairs in back porch broke im sure just from general overuse, but then leg wobbled and made one of family members fall. For several families wouldn't recommend this home just due to how loud it gets, the echoing, and inconvenience to beach. Esp with the kids. This was suppose to be relaxing but the constant travel back and forth to beach was a pain for us. We didn't spend much time together cause we all wanted to be down by beaches or around shops. ”

“"Beautiful Villa In Aruba" - My family and I enjoyed our stay at Villa Azul. The Villa was beautiful, clean and comfortable. We were very impress with the large pool, clean rooms and quiet location of the villa. If you really want to enjoy a relaxing and memorable time I suggest you book this Villa. It was 9 family members and we had more than enough room. I would definitely rent Villa Azul again. Once you stay here you will not want to stay any where else in Aruba! Stuart which manages the Villa did everything to make our stay very comfortable. I recommend this Vill to everyone!!!!!<br/>”

“Best Idea Ever - We were a group of 9 girls and this villa provided us with everything possible for us to have a great stay. It was the best idea possible. The pool is perfect, the rooms are great size and comfortable.Every thing is very clean and organized. The kitchen has absolutely everything you need and more. I also noticed they are ready for a family that has kids or babies as well. It's an Awesome place to stay in. Everything is close by. In Aruba all you need is to rent a car.The villa provides a gps that they have ready for you where ever you rent your vechicle. Sabine and Julia are literally a phone call away. They will assist you with everything you need. They were great genuine people. I'm very appreciative with there help to us.”
