Room was clean, spacious with air conditioning. Host was great, easy to communicate with and professional. He provided beach beds and towels, all kitchen supplies and staying at his property was very pleasant. Pool is nice, very clean and his tow dogs will make your stay interesting, they are adorable. Location is quiet, easy to find and close to Palms Beach, Eagle Beach and Divi beach. Frank is great host and if we return to Aruba I will book his property again.

Nice vacay studio

Stayed for 4 nights. Frank is very nice and happily helped us with anything. It is a small studio, no microwave and shower is large and water pressure is very good. The pool is perfect for cooling off. The location is excellent. Would recommend.

Frank's place was perfect! Quiet, relaxing and close to wonderful beaches. Rent a car and explore! Frank was available anytime we needed him, the perfect host. Dont hesitate to rent this gem. Added bonus, the dogs he rescued, Booster and Charlie! The pictures are from a hike, behind the Alto Vista Chapel, quick 8 minute drive. Sunset picture was a quick drive also. Everything is very close.

Amazing home and location

From the time my reservation was confirmed, Frank was an excellent host. He made a reservation for a car for me and he met me at the airport so that I could follow him to the house. And the house was clean and was just as the pictures showed. The pool was amazing. and any questions I had, Frank was quick to reply. A wonderful place to stay for either a single person or a couple. I can’t wait to be able to return to this property.

Great place to stay

Frank is a wonderful host! He offers a good deal on a rental car, is very responsive, plus will meet you at the airport to help you find your way to the property. The animals are very sweet, we loved having them around. Shower does not have hot water as stated on listing but no need to worry as the water was usually a very nice temperature. The property also has an air conditioner which was remote controlled and wonderful to have. Lastly the private pool was amazing to have! We will be staying here for any future trips to Aruba!

Absolutely perfect

This was my 3rd time to Aruba and my husband’s 1st time. I stayed at an all-inclusive in the past and this was SO MUCH better!!! We really got to experience Aruba. Frank was so accommodating and his place was absolutely perfect for us. Very clean and the pool was perfect to come back to after our days exploring. He has everything you need for your stay. Frank will even help with a rental car. I can’t say enough great things about Frank and his property. We will definitely be returning! Thank you Frank for everything!!!

LoVeLy

My wife and I stayed here for 6 days and wished it could have been longer. Minimalistic but has everything you need; clean; quiet area; excellent wifi; and a very private pool, bigger than what I was expecting and a great size for 2 people or maybe a small family. Frank and his 2 dogs were very welcoming and GREAT hosts. If we ever go back to Aruba this will be my choice villa. Two warnings ... (1) A car is very much recommended. Frank will meet you at the airport and take you to the villa and even assist you in renting a car. (2) DON'T rely on google maps for finding the house, it is inaccurate (and one of the reasons Frank meets you). This comes from personal experience. An absolutely LoVeLy villa!!!!

Four weeks of Rest & Relaxation !!

Frank is a perfect host, always willing to help answer any questions. He even helped arrange a rental car for us, at an incredible rate. It was through Hertz, which is directly across from arrivals at the airport. He met us at the airport so we could follow him to his rental. The rental was very clean and comfortable, just right for two people. The bathroom was nice with a good sized shower. There is no hot water, just naturally heated water, which was fine for us. The bed was a king and quite comfortable. The kitchen, even though there was no oven, just a gas cooktop and the fridge was small, we survived with no problem at all. The pool is private, for your use only, and very refreshing. A pool guy cleans it twice a week. We really enjoyed our time here !! Frank also has 2 dogs, Booster and Charlie and three cats, they are all great company. Don't forget to bring treats for them, bring extra cat treats because Charlie prefers them. lol If we return to Aruba, Frank will be our first choice !! Keith & Debbie

Home away from home

This was my 3rd time visiting Aruba and my 2nd time staying at this property. The location of the property is ideal allowing us to be close to anything we needed yet far enough away to be able to relax peacefully. We had everything we needed on site at the location including a kitchen, stovetop, fridge, washer & dryer, and even many grocery supplies such as coffee & tea, spices, cooking oil, etc. The pool is small but wonderfully designed and perfect for relaxing and staying cool in the sun. Frank is always an amazing host who is kind enough to track your flight and meet you at the airport upon arrival. He assists with arranging a car rental for a discounted price if you wish. He also provided a nice cold beer each waiting for us in the fridge when we arrived at the property. Charlie & Buster (Frank’s sweet dogs) are always there to greet you with a friendly Good Morning when you step outside each day. There is a lovely covered patio just outside your door with a table and chairs as well as a bench so you can enjoy meals outside comfortably if you wish. If you enjoy reading, there’s a shelf filled with several books to enjoy during your stay. The property is well maintained and very clean. All linens including extras were all provided. Frank even provides a cooler and beach chairs if you need them for a beach day! Frank is a wonderful host and so kind to his guests. I can’t imagine staying anywhere else in Aruba!

Perfectly Relaxing Getaway and Incredible Host

This was my first time visiting Aruba and my first time renting and driving a car abroad. Frank is so incredibly awesome and accommodating. He offered to help me find a rental car and wound up escorting me from the airport. As for the place, it’s wonderful as well. The most important thing to me when I stay at a place is the cleanliness, and this place is incredibly clean. I’m easily disgusted, but this place passed the test. Also, it has all the amenities I could want: A/C, wifi, pool, fridge, stove, outdoor eating area, laundry. On the days I was low on energy, I just lounged by the pool, which was always super clean and well maintained. There was nothing I wanted that wasn’t available, and whenever I had a question, Frank was available either in person or via the VRBO app to help. My goal was to be close to the beach but away from the bustle. The place is a 5-10 minute drive to Palm beach. (Nothing in Aruba is far.) I’m a huge animal lover. The bonus for me was Frank’s dogs and cats. They’re super friendly and were usually up for a cuddle or pet. However, much like Frank, although they are super friendly, they won’t bother you if you don’t want to be bothered. They are very respectful of your space. (So don’t worry if you’re not a fan of animals.) This place checked all my boxes. I will definitely stay here when I come back to Aruba.

Amazing stay!

My husband and I went to Aruba for our honeymoon and we stayed at Frank’s accommodation. We had an excellent time there. Frank is an amazing host and will do everything for you to have a great stay. He also has 2 cute dogs and 3 cute cats that come to say good morning everyday. They are great friends! To put it in a nutshell, we recommend 100% this little house that has a private pool, and close to everything if you have a car it’s even better!

Aruba, One Happy Island

Villa Valentina was a great option for my wife and I. We appreciated Frank meeting us at the airport to guide us to our Villa. The studio, while small, was clean and fully functional. Our own private pool was a wonderful plus. The resident dogs, Booster and Charlie, were friendly and a great addition for us as dog lovers. Frank was able to arrange a super rate on a rental car, which was necessary for our vacation. Frank was also very informative concerning our trip and was timely with text messaging. In conclusion, Villa Valentina is a great option for couples who are looking for a clean and affordable place to stay while visiting Aruba.

Awesome cozy place!

Frank, the owner met us at the airport and got to his place. GPS not the best in Aruba but Sun, Sand, Beach and Fresh Fish Awesome. At the apartment it is small but very nice and cozy. Had our own pool and 2 nice dogs that stay close by that are very friendly. The place has everything you need to enjoy Aruba. Just have a car and you will be fine. The place is not to far from the beach. But you will want to check out the restaurants. Thanks Frank for everything.

Villa Valentina = a wonderful escape from all things touristy!

We truly enjoyed our stay at Villa Valentina, the property was clean, easy to find if we used our Waze app. We stayed the first week at our timeshare and added 4 days through VRBO at Villa Valentina, I'm questioning why we never did this before! It was wonderful. The owner Frank, was fantastic and made us feel very welcome. I asked him ahead of time if we would be able to bring our stuff from a refrigerator in our timeshare to his refrigerator prior to the check-in time so we didn't risk our cold foods and he readily agreed. In fact, he messaged me a few days prior to our arrival to let us know that we could check in earlier than the normal check-in time if we wanted to that he would make sure it was ready for us. We truly enjoyed our time there, and loved having the two dogs Booster and Charlie greeting us every day - they were such loves. In evaluating our entire time at this property, there were only two things that would have made this a five-star property across the board for us. 1. Would have been to have a larger refrigerator in the apartment. That was just a personal preference for us as we really like to cook. 2. The only other thing that would've made this great was to have either an oven in the apartment or maybe even a grill outside - again, we like to cook. Other than those 2 things which were just personal to us; this was really the perfect place. It was truly a unique experience compared to what we are used to staying at our timeshare. I loved having a quiet apartment that was not associated with a giant Hotel. Not to mention the private pool; there is nothing more relaxing at the end of the day of doing excursions or whatever you want to do to come back to the villa and just float in the pool to relax and unwind!

About the host

Hosted by Frank Dubbeld

Host profile image
Hi there, my name is Frank. Born in the Netherlands, but moved to Aruba over 30 years ago and like many others got hooked on Aruba and have been living the happy island life ever since. I live in the beautiful quiet area of Alto Vista. I love going to the beach, walk my two dogs Booster and Charlie, read books in my peaceful garden and listen to jazz. My favorite hobby is running, I ran a few marathons in the past. If you are a runner please make sure to bring your gear and I will be happy to introduce you to the local running scene. I hope to welcome you soon at Villa Valentina in Aruba!

Why they chose this property

Alto Vista is a very quiet residential area and yet close to the hotels, beaches and shopping areas. Public transportation is not available. You do need a car to get around.
