The pictures are exactly as the house was in reality - spacious, clean, open and airy, and tastefully decorated in a minimalist style (which we love!). Check in was easy, the rental management company will take a $400 deposit to be used towards any electricity/water overages (you are allotted $15USD/day). We took the advice of others' reviews and only turned on the AC in the rooms we were using while home, otherwise we turned everything off when we left the house. The pool and patio in the backyard were a wonderful, private retreat. The pool was cleaned twice while we were there, which was very nice! We rented a Jeep and explored the island every day - the location of the house is centrally located to most areas on the island, and we wanted to experience the real Aruba vs. tourist Aruba, which we did. Kim and the management company were very responsive to our questions throughout the entire process. Check out was also fast and quick. The security and camera systems as well as the fence around the entire property made us feel very safe. I would definitely recommend the Googy Villa to anyone looking for a unique Aruban experience that the resorts and hotels can't offer. Thank you Kim! read less

Nice pool and privacy.

Exceptional All is perfect! Thanks to Kim, Sher & Ana! See you soon in Aruba

Superb Maravilloso , simplemente hermoso, cómodo, muy completo y seguro.

Great place to stay in. Baby Beach, our favorite beach, is about 20 min drive.

My friends and I went to Aruba for the first time and this was the perfect place to experience the country. It looks exactly like the pictures and is such a stylish place. The amenities were outstanding along with the responsiveness of Sher, Kim and one of the property managers Anne. Check in was smooth, after Anne rescued us when we got lost, and all of our questions were explained well. This villa gave us the opportunity to feel and see the real Aruba while trying out all of the local eats (ALL OF THE FOOD IS AMAZING). This villa was also close to the tourist part of the island, making it a quick drive to everything we wanted to see. This is such a perfect deal and I'd love to stay here again during my next visit! Thank you Sher & Kim for giving us a home away from home! read less

It started with Anne reaching out prior to our arrival and providing directions to their home. We arrived and Anne was there waiting to introduce us to the home and answer any questions we had. We are a family of five and all fit comfortably in the three bedrooms. The place was clean and beds were comfortable. The pool was awesome to use in Aruba when we returned from activities. The outdoor table is great to have morning coffee or meals as a family and enjoy Aruba’s amazing weather. The home is centrally located and with a rental car, easy to get to any place in Aruba. We definitely recommend Sher & Kim’s place if coming to Aruba. Thank you Anne for your hospitality. read less

We rented a car and traveled the entire island from Baby Beach to the California Lighthouse. We would stay at this property again and it is perfect for a family vacation as it has 3 spacious bedrooms. I added a list of pros and cons below. I will mention that this is a self serve property and they do not provide “starter” toilet tissue, paper towels, or trash bags. I was a little annoyed and helpless after getting off a 5 hour flight and checking in the property to only find out I could not use the restroom unless I went to the store first to purchase items. Overall, we had the best time and would visit again!

Pros:
Easy commute to all places on the island
Spacious
Very clean and beautiful decor
Great pool
Kitchen had most essentials
Washer and Dryer on property
Air and water included
Gated property with alarm system
Property has beach towels and chairs for use


Cons:
No toilet paper
No trash bags
No paper towel
Could not control pool lights
Stray dogs/animals in the area. Be sure to check surroundings and drive in the driveway and close property gate before getting out of the car. read less

De ligging is centraal en met een auto zijn de stranden zoals Eagle Beach en Tres Trapi ( super voor te snorkelen ) in 10 min te bereiken. Baby beach 20 min. De grote supermarkten 10 min rijden.
Het huis zelf is een droom:
- comfortabele bedden
- warm water in de badkamer
- compleet ingerichte keuken met afwasmachine en alle benodigdheden om te koken. Amerikaanse koelkast met ijsklontjes machine tot onze grote vreugde.
Keukenkruiden, wc papier, keukenrol, vaatwastabletten etc lagen voor ons klaar.
- grote eettafel en sofa
- wasmachine en droger ( wasmiddel en wasverzachter aanwezig )
- een heerlijk schoon zwembad met ligstoelen
- eettafel buiten en een loungeset
- tv en sound system
- barbecue
- omheinde tuin met privacy
Er liggen stoeltjes, ligbedden en een koelbox voor op het strand. Verder liggen er handdoeken en beddengoed om te gebruiken.
Het was super schoon bij onze aankomst.
Sher & Kim zijn fijne mensen om mee te mailen. Ze reageren snel en hebben ervoor gezorgd dat we een onvergetelijke vakantie hebben gehad.
Wij gaan hier zeker weer terug. read less

Just the right touches my favorite parts of the house was the backyard and the kitchen. The dining table is a beautiful touch as well. The rooms were spacious.

Checked in after arriving at the airport and couldn’t meet the host as noticed. Had to call the host to find the key. (Thank god he answered the call quickly!)
There was no toilet paper, paper towel, and dish soap. Next day of arrival, the property manager brought them. So we had to buy those at the supermarket. Found hair dryer, body wash at one bathroom only. Would’ve been great if the other bathroom had it too.
Overall, it was a wonderful nice house and made our trip beautiful! read less

The pool was lovely and the neighborhood was nice. Anne helped with our check in and out with ease. Her recommendation of using the maps.me app was a life saver. It took us right to the house with no interruptions. We ended up using the app for the rest of our trip (because we didn't want to use data while in Aruba). It got us exactly where we needed to go. I don't know how we lived without it during our previous trips! Thank you again Sher, Kim and Anne for an excellent experience! read less

It was spacious, very clean, and had everything we needed. The pool and backyard were beautiful as well. It's in a very residential area central in the island, so we rented a car and drove to different beaches and places all over the island every day. We liked getting the chance to see more of Aruba, but I would say for us having a car was a must-have. We traveled with two kids and they loved the house as well. read less

The villa (house) is spotless clean. The white walls make it feel light, spacious, fresh and calming. The kitchen is ample and allows for wonderful cooking.
We even hired the new local chef: Anita. She is originally from Colombia, so your Spanish skills will come in handy when hiring her! She cooked heavenly for us! Picture this:
The lovely home, the Caribbean breeze, the pool, you, your family and Ana cooking something for you in the kitchen while you enjoy yourselves...a homemade burger to die for, a crispy paella, lively salads, fresh fruit, chocolate cake and (Website hidden by Airbnb) yourself a favor and hire her. Ask Kim for the details. 😉

When using a GPS, my husband found very convenient to enter the name of the house, the Googy on (Hidden by Airbnb) maps instead of the " (Website hidden by Airbnb) app that they recommended at the car rental place. We got lost a lot the first hours with that one....

We wholeheartedly appreciated all the hospitality details, kind and prompt replies from Kim and Sher and their team. We will definitely love to stay here once again in the near future!
Enjoy! read less

The house was spotless with great natural light, modern decor, and electronics; 100% as pictured. There's also a great full-length mirror in the living room area that makes for great selfies (lol). The grounds were well-manicured and maintained multiple times during our 5 days, four-night trip. The hot tub was great at night and I enjoyed having the dining area on the verandah alongside the pool. We had all the necessary kitchen utensils to make a few meals without the need to improvise. The bathrooms were clean and stocked with towels, the bedrooms were also of the same standing. The street fighter game (which actually works) was a nice touch. It was easy to feel like a home away from home.

The house was also pretty centrally located; with our rental car majority of the "must-dos/sees" was at max 10 minutes away.

All in all Sher & Kim’s home wasn't just a place to stay during our vacation, it became an enhancing part of our trip. It was a very positive experience, that I definitely will recommend and revisit if the opportunity ever were to arise.

Thanks again for having us! read less
