Reviews

We have over 2000 reviews on Airbnb and about as much on VRBO, feel free to read through them, here are just a few we have copied from our listing pages.

“If you like the pictures of this house, then you will be in love with the home because the pictures are 100% accurate representation of what you get. In fact, I might even say the home is even lovelier in person. I thought my favorite thing would be the pool, but I honestly think it is the view from the rooftop. I made sure to be home in time to watch the sunset twice from up there, and it was the best view of the sunset that I got while I was in Aruba. The home is spacious, but feels cozy at the same time. I love the island in the kitchen. It was the perfect place to cook and talk, and I also love outdoor dining area near the pool. I will say the home is a little bit off the beaten path, so I would definitely suggest renting a car, although we had no trouble getting taxis if needed. The beds were very comfortable, all the room sizes were nice, and there are three showers, and they are all amazing. I highly, highly recommend this home. It’s a large part of what made my trip so special.“

“My husband and I and our 3 grown boys stayed for a week at Las Islas in August. Great location , near the high rise hotels , restaurants, grocery, night life, palm beach, etc… within walking distance. The Condo was very clean and spacious. Rixt and Jose are wonderful hosts and excellent with communication. (responding promptly to questions, or if you need something)
Our son needed to take college final exams online and they provided us with a printer scanner. Our Condo lacked a couple amenities ( large bowl for salad, can opener, beach chairs didn’t work). We made it through without calling Jose. When we told him as we were getting ready to leave for home ( so sad!!), Jose was very receptive and wrote down the things we said were missing.
The pool at our Condo was very nice and had an outside shower to rinse off. We met some very nice folks at the pool.
I highly recommend Las Islas and I am hoping to return in the next couple of years.“

“Getting to spend two weeks on vacation in Aruba is fabulous enough, but staying at Villa Safir made it perfect. The home is located in a great neighborhood. The bus stop, grocery store and bike/surf shop are a short walk.
The house has everything needed to cook in, or out on the outdoor grill. And there are two dining areas poolside and a family dining table inside. Since I am on a strict diet, cooking in was our preference. And making meals in the kitchen was a pleasure.
I found the house clean, beds comfortable and everything in good, working order. It was handy to have an outdoor shower near the pool to take off the sand from our daily trips to the beach.
We traveled in our rented car to all parts of the island. We spent a day at the Arikok National Park where we went to the caves. The park rangers were knowledgeable, friendly and enjoyed sharing. We spent time at Palm beach near the house and traveled down to Baby Beach to snorkel. And to Boca Grande beach to photograph kite boarders.
At the bird sanctuary we saw a variety of birds including pink flamingos. But you want to get there early.
I arrived the weekend of the Soul Music festival There was lots of free music and entertainment at all the local bars and resort hotels.
I would highly recommend a vacation stay at the Villa Safir. It was absolutely perfect.“

“An unforgettable Stay in Aruba, just a few minutes walk from the beach! I recently had the pleasure of staying at this fantastic find, and it truly exceeded all my expectations. From the moment we arrived, the hosts were incredibly attentive, ensuring I felt right at home. The house itself was nothing short of amazing. It was spacious, beautifully decorated, and had a warm, inviting atmosphere. The beds were exceptionally comfortable, with soft, high-quality sheets that made for some of the best sleep I’ve had in ages. After long days of adventure, it was a blissful retreat. The kitchen was well-equipped and thoughtfully prepared, making it easy for me to cook meals when I wanted to enjoy a cozy night in. Everything I needed was right at my fingertips, and I loved having the option to dine at home. Cleanliness is always a priority for me, and I was pleased to find the house immaculate. It was clear that the hosts take great pride in maintaining their property. AC works great!”

“We will book for next year. Property is gorgeous with amazing views over the marsh and coast. Stocked well. We loved BBQ grill hanging around the pool with our cocktails. Nectar plants all around attracting yellow finches & neon green hummingbirds. Rain the day we arrived caused havoc on the island. Electrical issue responded to immediately. We could not ask for a better or friendlier host. On that day when it was difficult to maneuver around the island, they made sure to come see us & greet us. We have had many types of accommodations on the island but this one blew us away. We were 5, but house can take more than that. Upstairs patio for sunsets & star gazing. I can’t think of one thing to complain about. Perfect home! We will try to reserve for next year already. I wanted to change the locks and not leave LOL! See you next year!”

“omg ! says it all. I went for a relaxing mini getaway with a couple of friends, and was not disappointed. Great safe place, clean and pristine. Walking distance to all the nice restaurants,beach and clubs, yet private enough to feel tranquil. Point man Daniel was AWESOME. Very quick to respond for our questions. I am definitely coming back to this magnificent island and staying here. Thanks!!!”

“Let me start off by saying I NEVER leave reviews. This stay was by far the NICEST and BEST stay I have ever been at! A “Vacation Home”… More like an actual home! I couldn’t have felt more at peace anywhere else. This BY FAR surpassed my expectations. Everything from Location, Cleanliness, Neighbourhood, Amenities, and the fact that the Villa looked even better than the Amazing Photos have completely made my trip to Aruba 100 times better. I can’t even begin to list the things that this place has to offer, let alone describe how amazing it was to be there. Let me just say Daniel the host, was not just a host too. No, from the second I booked this listing until the day I left he has been nothing but a Brother & great friend to me!! He has shown me SO much hospitality in my stay here. Made me feel completely welcome and was doing everything he can to make sure my Trip was the best it could be. Every single restaurant/activity recommended by him was a 10/10! I will definitely be back !”

“!!😊Book your stay, you won’t regret it! I came with my family of 7;all adults and we loved it! Every couple had a comfortable bedroom, private bathroom & plenty of space for belongings. The house is remarkable, just like the pictures and super cozy! I love the Marin Team and their host Daniel, who’s kindness and promptness was exactly what you want in a host. We stayed 8 days and didn’t want to leave! We will be returning one day when we visit Aruba again and booking with the Marin team! I loved the kitchen, so easy to use and spacious for my family. We enjoyed the pool and jacuzzi. The jacuzzi isn’t heated but we didn’t mind as it cooled us off after a long day in the sun. The washer and dryer work great but don’t run it when trying to sleep 😂 it’s a little noisy. The location was amazing, highly recommend Arashi beach down the street very beautiful! we were central to Eagle beach, grocery store, gas, and a and easy to drive to anywhere!! The neighborhood is calm & very safe. 🩷Thx!”
