Aruba Vacation Rental condo

This was our first trip to Aruba and, as independent travelers, we were a little concerned about Aruba's reputation for high rise hotels, casinos, cruise ships, and glitz. No need to worry if you stay at this location. The condo is tucked away on a local street in the northwest corner of the island, a five minute drive to some beautiful small beaches. Twenty five condos are built in a complex surrounding a large pool with water falls and gardens. The accommodations are comfortable, with all the amenities we needed (with the exception of internet access). The atmosphere is relaxing; it helped to have the entire property well-maintained and spotless. We snorkeled alot, swam some, walked and jogged on the local roads, hiked into some beautiful cactus fields in the national park, and were charmed by the warm winds which blew all the time. We did one day of exploring the hotel row, which is very beautiful, but we were happy to return to our little piece of Aruba. Yes, we would recommend this place to friends, and seriously consider going back to stay there.
