This feels more like home than a vacation rental! We had two wonderful weeks at Villa Chuchubi. It had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. Extra touches like a pump for the pool toys, chairs and coolers for the beach, music by the pool, the list goes on!

The host thought of everything to make this a great option to experience Aruba for the first time for our family of 4! House is close to some great beaches and restaurants but we found ourselves taking most advantage of the amazing private pool area to enjoy the amazing weather! Highly recommend if you’re looking a more private house vs resort experience!

We had a wonderful stay - the hosts were available to answer all our questions before we visited. They supplied many amenities to make our stay as comfortable as possible. The house was gorgeous and provided the tranquility and comfort we were looking for. The location was safe and quiet. We were provided with beach chairs and towels for all our excursions away from the house. We have stayed in high rises, low rises and condos in Aruba in the past but renting this house was our best choice by far and we will definitely return!

Once again, my family and I had a fantastic stay at Villa Chuchubi! The location in Noord was excellent as it was close to beaches (Arashi is our favorite), groceries, and restaurants. The house has a great floor plan for a family, with plenty of quiet/private spots to relax, as well as places to gather for meals and family fun. As usual, the pool was the highlight of the trip for our kids. It was the ideal base for our Aruba vacation, and we can't wait to come back for a third time in the future.

Beyond Amazing

We had an absolutely amazing stay! The house was immaculate - clean, spacious, and incredibly comfortable. It had everything we needed and more to make us feel right at home. The home and pool are very private and we were able to relax and forget about the real world for a while.What truly made this stay exceptional was interacting with the owners, specifically Sue, as well as the property managers. They were all so welcoming, kind, and genuinely invested in making sure our experience was perfect. Highly, highly recommend—we’ll definitely be back!

Awesome get away place

We really enjoyed staying at the villa. It was very spacious inside as well as the outdoor space. Having a private pool was pure heaven and so convenient! We started every morning with a cup of coffee on the outside terrace. There are several seating areas outside. Inside has a great open floor plan that makes hanging out really easy. We highly recommend staying here.

Amazing week

The property was just as nice as the pictures. My wife and I spent 7 days here with our two teenaged boys, and the villa had ample space to hang together or have quiet time to relax. Minutes from many different beach options, the house had all we needed, with beach towels, beach chairs, and coolers. An amazing house on an amazing island.

Beautiful

Beautiful home with plenty of space for our 2 adults/3 kids (11-15yrs) to spread out and have alone time after adventurous days. Pool was perfect. Loved being able to take the beach chairs, towels and coolers on our adventures. We grilled dinner most nights. Baby beach was amazing for calm water and seeing a lot of fish while snorkeling (45 minute drive). Arashi beach and light house (5-10 minute drive) had great sunsets. 10 minutes to hotel area with shops, large grocery stores and restaurants (less than 2 minutes to smaller grocery store) - need a rental car but so convenient to many places and gives you the ability to see/do so much around the island! We also visited the donkey sanctuary (30 min drive) and trekked up the 489 steps of Hooiberg (20 min drive).

About the host

Hosted by Paul and Sue Gibbs

Host profile image
We are just an ordinary English couple, who visited Aruba with our family for a two week vacation in 2013, and were captivated by the beauty and warmth of the island and its inhabitants.

Having fallen in love with all that Aruba has to offer, we decided to buy a property to enjoy ourselves, and to rent to others who can also create happy memories of this exceptional island.

Why they chose this property

We fell in love with Aruba during our 2013 vacation, and felt the same way about Villa Chuchubi from the moment we walked through the front door. The open plan kitchen/living/dining area is HUGE, with a large and shady terrace for eating and lounging, just the other side of the patio door from the kitchen.

The pool invites you to jump in, as soon as you step out into the lush, tropical gardens, and the pretty thatched palapa offers welcome shade from the heat of the Aruban sun.

What makes this property unique

* Stunning gardens and pool
* HUGE open plan kitchen/living/dining area
* Large master suite with walk-through closet and en-suite bathroom
* Quiet neighborhood close to Palm Beach
* Perfect base for a vacation in the paradise island of Aruba
