Beach house holiday rentals in Aruba

We have stayed in AirBnBs all over the world, and Michel's home on Mangel Halto is by far one of our absolute favorites. The view alone is worth every penny -- looking out at the pristine shades of blue, watching locals, vacationers, and pups splash around in the shallow water, and seeing pelicans diving along the mangroves -- it was a dream! We visited with our two young children (ages ~2 and 5) and it could not have been a better spot for us. The house is spacious and comfortable, equipped with everything we needed, and so thoughtfully decorated! Every day we walked across the street, wandered down onto the mangrove beach and waded or snorkeled in the beautiful waters. Typically we were accompanied by our favorite neighborhood dog, Chocolate, who liked to lounge with us in the sand. We left the driveway gate open so Chocolate could enjoy the shade of the patio, often with his two sweet companions. Our kids adored them, and we all fell quite in love! We'll never forget our time here!

Our host was proactive in providing instructions/info on anything you might think to ask! The place was just right for us! A short walk to the beach, very clean and even a covered outside space to relax with your morning coffee! Plus the perk of a washer and dryer!! Would definitely stay here again!

Truly an amazing experience from the moment of arrival! We enjoyed all the onsite amenities, available water toys, and anything else that would be desired to explore the island. The property manager was truly a gem, provided great recommendations and checked to ensure our needs were met. Communication with both him and Dan was second to none. I’d highly recommend to anyone who wants a more private setting without the crowds of an all inclusive. Whether you want to explore the island or relax at home, this place has it all! Have fun, enjoy your stay and try not to miss a sunset from your own back yard!

5 stars! We had an amazing stay at this beautiful house in Aruba! The home was spotless, spacious, and had everything we needed for a comfortable and relaxing vacation. The private pool was definitely the highlight — perfect for cooling off after a day at the beach or just lounging in the sun. The location was quiet and safe, yet still close to restaurants, beaches, and shops. The host was incredibly responsive and helpful throughout our stay, offering great local tips and making check-in seamless. We couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay — highly recommend and would absolutely book again!

Ivan’s place was exactly as described. Truly a gem away from the tourist areas. Place was clean and had everything we needed/wanted. We stayed outside most nights and couldn’t even tell Zeerover’s was directly next door. We used the canoes that were easy to take out with Ivan’s dock. We couldn’t even tell there was no hot water because the temperature was perfect. We will be returning to Ivan’s when we make a trip back.

The place is great. It is a cabin with two bedrooms, one bathroom with a shower, and a functional kitchen plus... a washing machine, a dryer, and a grill. Everything was clean and ready to use. The unit is located behind a larger house, so the place itself is very quiet and private. The beaches are across the road. And there are plenty of fish to see while snorkeling! The host responded to messages in 10-15 min. Overall, I definitely recommend this place. And I would like to come back one day. Thank you!

Great home! Huge kitchen and bedrooms. Very spacious. Looks exactly like the pictures and was bigger than expected. Would stay again. Definitely would recommend.

I loved this location. Everyone had their own villa style room, we were a 3 min walk from Marina Pirata restaurant ( amazing authentic food) and a 5 min walk to beach which has openings to the beach through the mangrove trees. My family and I loved being in the residential area of town, this time. We also rented a jeep which made exploring super easy. When we arrived we were greeted by the staff and were shown around the property. Maria was amazing and asked me if I needed any towels or anything else during the week while she was there in the morning cleaning the grounds. There was also a beautiful pool that was nice and refreshing when we wanted to take a break from The salt water. I am so grateful for Aruba stays that made this visit amazing!

Have stayed here before and loved it and we still love it! Their place is amazing, relaxing, clean, easy to get to high-rise hotel area and any other location. Hosts are extremely responsive. Would easily plan to stay again!

A little slice of paradise! The location was perfect—peaceful, beautiful, and close to everything we needed. The place was incredibly well-equipped, clean, and comfortable. The host was fantastic—responsive and welcoming. We would 100% stay here again. Highly recommend!

We could not have picked a better place for our vacation. Everything was as described. Our local host was always available to us and gave us such great recommendations. We would 100% return!

This was our second year staying at Grace and Daniels. We love this house and will be back next year for the third year in a row. It is a great location for everything, and the house is always clean. We love sitting in the back after our days at the beach. Thank you, Grace and Daniele!

Very responsive & helpful host. This was my 2nd stay at one of his properties. Very clean & beautiful home exactly like pictures. I plan on returning again in future.

Mirtha’s places was perfect for my adult kids and I. She was super sweet and kind to all our needs. I highly recommend! Lots of extras in the cabinets.

Sylvia the property manager was amazing, showed us where everything was and gave clear directions on how to use everything on the property. We have used AirBNB and VRBO for many other properties and this was possibly the best for the price paid! We would definitely stay here again. We had a great starter set of everything from coffee, shampoo, conditioner, body wash, laundry soap, dish detergent, paper products, etc. The grill was spotless as was the pool and all the furniture. Beds were super comfortable. This truly felt like home away from home and a great place to unwind after a day at the beach. We really appreciate Sylvia meeting us at the property for check in and check out. We have never had a property manager do that before and it was a nice touch and very much appreciated.

Absolutely fantastic location, gorgeous island and incredibly gracious and friendly hosts. We can’t thank Silvia and Jan enough for an absolutely amazing week - the property was absolutely stunning and amenities top notch with the pool a highlight which gave us a break from the incredible beaches and the relentless sun - a nice base to call our own. Silvia and Jan went out of their way to be helpful, offered many amazing ideas and even helped out when we accidentally left something at the property on our way home. We will certainly be coming back - we wish there was a 6 star review as this is the best vacation we’ve had thanks to these amazing hosts :)

We stayed at David's villa for a week and loved every hour of it! The property is brand new, squeaky clean, very spacious, and is equipped with everything you might ever need for your Aruba vacation! The villa is located on a very quiet circular street with similar well maintained houses. It is minutes away from the beaches and several supermarkets (by car). We enjoyed alternating eating out and having a dinner at home. There is a gas grill in the backyard - just perfect! We have been using Airbnb system in the US and abroad for 15 years, and I have to say I've never seen that many high quality large beach towels available to us as David provided! A high-end large washer and dryer also came handy and worked very well. David and Misha (co-host), were very helpful and prompt in responding to a few questions we we had. We had a tiny issue at the beginning of our stay (which was not the hosts' fault), and they solved it incredibly quickly - kudos! Thank you so much!

The place is in a good location, it is as described in the publication, everything is very well conditioned for a pleasant stay

Gustavo was a great host. He communicated promptly and provided all we needed to know before booking. The unit was beautiful. Looked just like the photos and the AC worked well. It was spotless not a hair or dust anywhere. The hot tub wasn’t heated but the weather outside kept the water nice and warm. It was very private and we were 11 minutes from Eagle Beach

Derek and Romina were above and beyond with the hosting. Very responsive and helpful with everything. The property is stunning, it was very modern and clean with great amenities! The mini golf was awesome and the pool was even better. It was a perfect 5-10 minute walk away from the beach, which was very accommodating for our group. I would 100% book Derek and Romina’s place again when in need for a trip to the happiest Island!

Super recommend this bedding, Excellent location, close to the airport near the center too , beach just ahead !! house complete with everything very good air conditioning, organized bathroom had a kit for bath , soap , armor quite complete beach bath towels, the super complete kitchen just felt the lack of an Airfryer , good refrigerator helped a lot in the day to day that Aruba the Prices are not cheap , we cooked quiet on Airbnb and the differential the cooler and the beach chairs with an excellent quality that helps a lot in the trips to the beaches , my tip rent a vehicle that transport in Aruba and complicated taxi and expensive transportation and public transport I couldn't use , and be happy to super recommend this Airbnb , cost benefit Excellent !!

We stayed 3 nights as a couple in bird's - nest. It is an authentic Caribbean house in a private location, which is very tastefully decorated. By car, you can reach the beautiful beach in 5 minutes with snorkeling and diving spot "Mangel Halto". The house is centrally located, so I can quickly reach all the spots worth seeing by car. The morning view from the large terrace to the sea and the chirping of the many birds allows you to immerse yourself in the paradise silence. Conclusion: A PEARL in the middle of Aruba!

This is the most amazing airbnb where I have been in all my life. If you want to have a good time with your family or friends, this is the best option. The house is perfectly well equipped and maintained. The pool is amazing, you will enjoy it a lot. The location is perfect, it is close to everything you need in Aruba. Rolando the host is very friendly and will help you with everything you need. If you need a car, ask rolando for the minivan he has for rent, is the best option you will find in Aruba. 100% recommended this place. I will be back for sure

The home was immaculate! Very clean and easy to check in. We had to contact the host twice during our stay. They responded quickly and were able to help right away. Great recommendation for a taxi company and restaurants. Walkable to local groceries and a great clothing shop. 5-8 min drive to the beach. The backyard was the highlight of our stay. Our daughter had a blast in the pool and the space is great for yoga and meditation also!
