"Staff at Mammaloe’s was outstanding helpful in every way. Cabins are rustic , quaint, and comfortable. It is about 10 to 15 minutes from downtown and about 6 minute drive to the beach——- helpful to have a car. We loved being there."

"The house is beautiful! We had 12 adults with plenty of room. Very clean and excellent communication with the property owner. He is very quick to respond and very accommodating. The house is about a 15 min drive from town so you will need a rental car. We would definitely book again. "

"Great location, kayaks and paddle boards supplied!! Snorkel right off the beach. It is like a mini private resort. We will book again!"

"The location was absolutely fantastic! The palapa was a hit! When we weren't out exploring the island, we spent most of our time relaxing, swimming and snorkeling underneath it. We were surprised by the variety of fish we saw and even spotted a brittle star!The house comfortably fit all 8 of us and the kitchen was well-stocked for the many meals we cooked at home. Although we couldn't find any mixing bowls, so it might be worth adding a set. The outdoor kitchen was a great bonus!A few things weren't working during our stay — the outdoor kitchen's ice maker, the master bath jacuzzi, and the outdoor flood light required a call to management. They did respond to the flood light question, though we didn't get to use the jacuzzi.One suggestion: labels on the light switches would be a huge help! There are a lot of them, and we spent quite a bit of time trying to figure out what controlled what as some switches were in a different room. TIP for future guests — the outdoor flood light is controlled by two horizontal switches in the master bathroom; turn both to the right and you're all set!Overall, a memorable trip and a GREAT property. We'd love to come back!"

"This sweet chalet was absolutely beautiful and so relaxing and Sophie was an incredible, helpful and very kind host! The chalet is two lovely floors with a living room, shower and bathroom and outdoor kitchen area on the bottom and a bedroom loft! We really loved the lofted bed and getting to hangout and cook and have coffee in the partially outdoor kitchen! The yard is open and spacious and the pool was wonderful! The whole space was clean and breezy and so calming and welcoming! Sophie was happy to answer all of our questions and help with anything we needed. She was very easy to get in touch with at all time and she was just so kind and lovely to chat with and to get to stay with! We are so grateful that we ended up choosing this place and staying with her! The chalet is located very close to Arikok National park, about a 20 minute walk so it was perfect to get to visit there right from home! My partner and I had a beautiful time here and loved the peace and beauty of this space! We would absolutely recommend it and thank you Sophie again for such a great week in Aruba!!! "

"Perfect! Thank you so much!!"

"The location of this house is beautiful, and the waterfront view was definitely the highlight of the stay. Waking up and looking out over the water was really nice and made for a relaxing atmosphere.Unfortunately, the experience had several major problems. The house had no internet for the entire stay, which was very inconvenient. We contacted the host about it, but no one ever came to fix the issue.Another problem was the bathroom. Every time we took a shower, water would leak out and run under the bathroom door into the rest of the area. This made a big mess and clearly needs to be repaired.Overall, while the view was great, the lack of internet and the bathroom issue made the stay much less comfortable than expected. Hopefully these problems get addressed for future guests."

"The host was outstanding!!! If we asked for something he was so speedy with his response. There was nothing he could have done more to make our time at this home better. The location is perfect to catch the public transport and very close to many grocery which gave us options. "

"My wife and I stayed at Leu Aya for a week in Feb of 26. It was quiet on the east coast away from hustle and bustle of the tourist area. Ocean views and hiking were a plus. Janine was very helpful in our needs!"
