Wonderful stay!
This property was perfect! It is walking distance to the town and beaches of Aruba, but also in a quiet neighborhood. The apartment was clean and bright with comfortable beds, and the kitchen had everything we needed. The hostess is super-accomodating. The pool is beautiful! And it is big enough to swim laps, always clean and sparkling. It was also relaxing to swim at night. This was really the ideal place to be in Aruba. We loved our stay at Dolce Vita.

My husband and I stayed in the orange apartment for 10 nights. Fulvia and Paulo are perfect hosts, always available. Beaches are just down the road. Your beach chairs are very useful. Thank you and hope to see you next year.

Quaint apartment in a fabulous Location!!
My husband and I stayed here for 9 nights and had a fabulous vacation. The apartment was perfect for us. It was away from the busy downtown area but just a car ride away to all the beaches and restaurants. We spent a lot of time snorkeling at Arashi Beach and Boca Cantalina .

Wonderful, relaxing property
This property is very close to Arashi beach, one of the best on the island! It was very relaxing and had everything we needed to enjoy our vacation. Fulvia and her mom are very welcoming hosts. They quickly answered any questions we had. We’d definitely stay here again! We loved coming back from a day on the beach and relaxing some more by their pool. Just a lovely stay. Thank you!

Beautiful, clean, relaxing trip!
We really enjoyed staying at La Dolce Vita! The accommodations were lovely. My husband and I were very impressed with how clean the apartment was and how well the property was maintained. The pool was amazing and had the most beautiful palm trees near it. The owner, Fulvia, and her mother, Paula, were wonderful hosts. They were quick to respond to email and gave great help to any questions we had before our arrival and throughout our stay. My husband injured his foot while we were there and Paula gave us extra ice cube trays and checked in on him to see how he was doing T. They really made us feel like family while we were there; not just renters. One thing I noticed that was really impressive was they would clean our apartment when we were out as to not bother us while we were resting, very sweet. We will definitely stay at La Dolce Vita when we visit Aruba again! We had such a nice stay! Thank you, ladies!

Sparkling clean, walk to the beach
The unit is just as pictured, spare and elegant. Fulvia left fresh flowers on the table nearly every day, the trash was removed daily and the unit cleaned every other day. Could not have been cleaner! You can walk to the beach where all the tourist boats come for snorkeling, and the fish are all around you just a couple of feet from shore. We did not tire of this, trying a different location each day. Fulvia and Paola were totally responsive to any requests. The only thing we found missing was hot water in the kitchen and bathroom sinks. There’s an instant hot water heater for the shower, which delivers a great shower, but only ambient in the sinks. This bothered my husband when he shaved. We didn’t do any serious cooking so we didn’t really miss hot water in the kitchen. All in all, the apartment is lovely, quiet and affordable.

Home in Aruba
Lovely cottage/apartment style vacation with pool. When we travel we prefer the feeling of a home rather than an impersonal hotel or resort where you feel like a number rather than a guest. La Doce Vita delivered a wonderful experience. First the communication prior to the trip was excellent. The property manager made the booking process easy for the apartment and then went over and above by assisting with car rental, finding a great rate with airport pick up and drop off. They included where to meet the car rental personnel upon our flights arrival and what the car rental personnel would be wearing for ease of identification. As promised, they were there to meet us as soon as we walked out the arrival door with no waiting. Upon arrival we were met with a brief tour of the premises, use of the security system, and a list of activities and restaurants in the area. For our needs the location was perfect on the northwest tip of the island, well away from the cruise ship port, high rise hotels and casinos. You can easily and quickly access those areas if you like from this location with your rental car but we prefer more outdoor or nature based activities. We were just a few minute walk from some of the best snorkeling on the island, best sunset views and close to the California lighthouse. We were close to easy access to snorkeling/sunset boat trips, Superfoods, and Eduardo’s Beach Shack for the best healthy fare on the island. We especially enjoyed the cactus garden where butterflies, hummingbirds, and other tropical birds put on a show each day. The pool was a lovely haven that we enjoyed every day of our stay and it was kept meticulously clean. We did use the gas grill and kitchen and both were more than satisfactory. We were treated to fresh flowers each day from the garden. The zoned cooling system worked very well and the tankless water heater for the shower was awesome and delivers instantaneous hot water as soon as you flip the switch on. We would not hesitate to book this rental again! We were treated with kindness, made to feel at home, the area was safe and quiet, and offered ease of access to the outdoor lifestyle we love. The only two negatives to this trip were the attitude of indifference by many of the local restaurants (no reflection on the owners of La Dolce Vita)which we were able to overcome by eating at the apartment and the fact that we had to leave - vacation was over much too soon!

June 2019 stay at La Dolce Vita
We had a wonderful week at La Dolce Vita. Fulvia and her mother were perfect hosts and made our stay relaxing and fun. From helping us with rental car arrangements to fresh flowers in our room, the little details matter. The apartment was clean, the property was quiet and the pool was great to come back to in the evenings. The one aspect I did not appreciate when looking on line was how important the location of La Dolce Vita is to many of the best attractions on the island. Our 10 year old daughter enjoyed the pool and the cactus garden and my wife and I began each day with coffee on our cozy private side porch. Our first trip to Aruba will not be our last.

Wonderful stay!
My wife and I had a great time in Aruba. Fulvia and her mother (Paola?) were very gracious hosts and assisted with answering pre-trip questions and offered recommendations for site seeing and dinner options. The orange apartment was very nice, clean and well kept. It is conveniently located near Malmok Beach, which is great for snorkeling. It is a short distance (2 miles) to the resorts, shopping, manicure and watersport activities. Sunset dinner on the beach at Atardi was amazing. I would not hesitate to stay here again, possibly the yellow apartment to mix it up. Fulvia thank you! Rob and Donna

The Perfect Place to Stay
This immaculate apartment exceeded our expectations. Outstanding service and hospitality. Short walk to the beach and the best snorkeling ever. This is the area for quiet beaches and beautiful sunsets. The pool is an oasis from the sun and the beaches. Can’t wait to rebook the”La Dolce Vita apartment “ again!!!❤️

The apartment was very nice and well equipped and very clean. The outside and pool were great.
Our stay was wonderful! Allowing us the use of beach chairs and a cooler was very nice. Having hot water for the shower was very nice, since not all apartments have hot water. Our experience was excellent.

We loved our orange apartment. It had everything we needed in the kitchen and a comfy bed. The pool was amazing! Clean and refreshing. Just a short walk to the beach and much more peaceful than the Palm beach area. Fulvia and her momma were wonderful to us! Going back!

Amazing
My family and I stayed in the orange apartment and had an amazing time. We loved how private it felt and the location was perfect as Arashi Beach is just down the road with a beautiful view of the sunset every night. The rooms were clean and well-kept. The owner, Fulvia, and her father were very welcoming and accommodating. We will definitely stay here again.

Fantasic
My wife and I just spent a week in Aruba and stayed at La Dolce Vita apartments. We couldn't have asked for a better place to stay. The location was quiet and close to everything we needed. Arashi Beach, 5 minutes away, Palm Beach 10 minutes. The orange apartment was perfect for us, clean, refreshing and the perfect size. Most importantly Fulvia and her mother were fantastic hosts, if we had a question they answered it right away, they were very friendly and welcoming and kept the entire place immaculate. I would highly recommend staying here when you visit the friendly island of Aruba. Thanks Fulvia for helping make our first trip to Aruba awesome. Mike and Dana

Beautiful place, beautiful people
My stay in the orange apartment was wonderful. The property is really beautiful and I took full advantage of the porch off of the bedroom. I entertained friends that live on the island and it felt very private. The pool is heated and well maintained. There was plenty of closet space, free parking and it's close to everything by short car ride. The home owner, Fulvia could not have been more accommodating. Any time I had a question she was there to help. Her mother was also visiting and was very sweet. A couple days they even offered to make me coffee in the morning. The other guests staying in the apartments were great as well. I'll definitely stay here again when I return to Aruba.
