We loved the relaxed feeling after the day’s adventure. My kids loved the pool and I liked that it was not the overwhelming experience of the all inclusive hotels up island. We walked out to nearby restaurants every night (but could have cooked in the well appointed kitchen) and found the area safe and accessible. Will certainly return to this hidden gem.

We really enjoyed having coffee in the morning on the patio. The only thing that can be improved is the condo beach chairs. They were not beach chairs, they were camp chair's that do not reclinin. Otherwise we loved our stay.
The place was hard for us to find, everything else was fabulous. Everything we could have desired was available. We rented a car and were so happy because getting around in the heat is something we are not used too. I would highly recommend this place.

Everything was clean and quiet. All the staff was very nice and the cleaning staff came by regularly to make sure we had towels and bedding even before their employee day off. The pool was fabulous and well maintained. Many times we had the pool to ourselves because it was so quiet. Overall wonderful experience. The only down side was we had to taxi to most locations. We did walk a few times but it was very hot some days. Taxis about $10-$20USD for most locations.
The property is beautiful, a little gem tucked into a hidden paradise of its own. There are gates to park within, -and the property has 24 hr surveillance. the room was quaint and felt like Aruba! The staff was so friendly, always serving with a smile-and took time to chat with the tourists about their motherland and the history of Aruba. It felt like being with family for 3 days, (which is how the whole island felt to be honest!) The property ios also situated right in the middle of both sides of the island, which was convenient because each day we circled the entire island. Aruba is tiny, but oh so much to do and so much beauty to see !

This was a great property, the hosts were very nice the apt. Was great. The pool was great there is a bar by the pool they serve limited breakfast and dinner all food was good. If you plan on staying at camacuri i would highly recommend renting a car. I rented a 4 door sedan for 300$US for 6 nights so great rental prices. There is a beach and restaurants within 10 minutes walk but you do need a car to get down town and if you want to go to different beaches you need transportation. Camacuri is more in a residential area the night life and shopping/dinning is about 20 minute drive. The island is very easy to get around plenty of parking most free, some for a small fee. The resort has free gated parking! Definitely recommend camacur. Youll love it to.
We really enjoyed our time at Camacuri. The entire process from booking to check out was simple and hassle free. The front desk attendant, amazing, she was incredibly helpful during our stay. Location is great. Close to the airport so there is no traffic to fight between the two locations. In the evening, you wouldn’t even know there is an airport nearby as the property is very quiet, calm, and relaxed. I believe the word is tranquil. Recommend going to Reflexions Beach Bar & Restaurant, about an 8 to 10 minute walk to from the property and definitely book a day trip to De Palm Island.
Come as Guests Leave as Friends, said a small sign hanging on the wall of the front desk at Camacuri. We chuckled a little about it during our check-in, but we felt that sentiment when we left.
I can’t wait to return to Aruba and Camacuri is where I plan to be staying.

Barely a drop of hot water and only in the shower. Safe didn’t work, but replaced. TV remote didn’t work, but replaced. Management responsiveness lazy. Like a compound buried in a neighborhood. Dirt road to steel gates for secure parking. Won’t go back.

The staff were real friendly and accommodating. Our room was cleaned each day at the time of our choosing. The beds were comfortable and the space was just right for us three. The beach was a 5 minute walk from the vrbo. At this time of year, there wernt many people staying so it was nice and quiet. The pool area was clean with plenty of lounge chairs. We didnt use the BBQ but its available if you want to grill your food. We could adjust our AC and 25⁰ C was comfortable. The only downside was our unit didnt have an oven, which we realized AFTER we bought a frozen pizza! We mentioned it to our onsite manager, Estrelle, and she let us have the keys to the unit next door, which had an oven. They go above and beyond to please you.
Check in was easy. Staff were helpful, friendly and accommodating. I would suggest a car so you can see the whole island and check out the great places to eat. Our fav - West Desk - went 3 times. Aruba water is the best we’ve run across for drinking. Had some great excursions - atv- snorkeling- jet skying- Palm Island and Aqua Windie’s were wonderful. Swam with the sea turtle. Even the big green lizards around the pool were friendly. A couple of hiccups which is no reflection on Wilfred - the lounge chairs are needing some tender loving care and the pool pump was down for a couple of days. So we made them beach days. FYI Baby Beach wins it for us. The only drawback - the wicker living room furniture is very squeaky and not very comfortable to sit in. After a long day in the sun sometimes a comfy chair/couch and some tv time is what you need. But hey we had a great time anyway.
When we first arrived, we were taken aback as the photos are a little more glamorous than the place itself. We also realized that for our 3-week stay to be satisfactory, it was best to rent a car.
We’ve adopted a 72-hour rule before judging accommodations (we are full-time travellers) and this place grew on us. The apartment itself is spotlessly clean (and comes with daily housekeeping services). It has a well-stocked kitchen and a gas stove. A washer AND dryer are available on-site. The pool is also spotless. And the bed is super comfortable. And the wi-fi is reliable.
Things to be aware of include that warm water is only available in the shower (not in kitchen or bathroom sink), which makes washing dishes interesting! Also, bring mosquito repellant—we found mosquito coils kept them at bay in the mornings on our lovely front porch.
The complex needs some TLC (the new owner has some big plans). And the location made it easy to get to downtown, grocery stores and an excellent local beach. We would stay here again if we ever return to Aruba.

Heerlijke vakantie gehad! Heel fijn huis van alle gemakken voorzien, iedere dag schoonmaak is heel fijn en luxe..Leuk kleinschalig vakantiepark met bewaking in de nacht.Helaas geen strandstoelen aanwezig, dagelijks strandbedden huren is erg duur, wij hebben zelf geïnvesteerd in stoelen. Ook is er helaas geen wasrekje.. Er is een gezamenlijke plaats om was te drogen maar dat vind ik niet prettig.De ligging van huisje 36 is erg gezellig.. Wij zouden zo weer teruggaan!
We hebben een fantastische vakantie gehad. De accomodatie heeft daar zeker aan bijgedragen.
De communicatie met de verhuurder verloopt heel prettig.
Wij vinden het complex een klein paradijsje. Lekker kleinschalig; met vaak het zwembad (bijna) voor Jezelf
Het huisje ligt fijn tov het zwembad. Alles is aanwezig.
Wir waren insgesamt 10 Tage in der Anlage in Camacuri.Die Ferienwohnung gehört zu einer kleinen, gepflegten ruhigen Anlage. Die Ferienwohnung und die Anlage waren sehr sauber und es wurde täglich gereinigt.
Die Ferienwohnung ist sehr gut ausgestattet und verfügt über 4 Schlafplätze (2 Einzelbetten im oberen Bereich und ein Doppelbett unten).
Parkplätze gibt es in ausreichender Zahl innerhalb der Anlage.
Der nächstgelegene Strand ist fußläufig in ca 15 Minuten zu erreichen - es empfiehlt sich aber ein Mietwagen um die Insel richtig erkunden zu können.
Einkaufsmöglichkeiten für Lebensmittel gibt es in ausreichender Zahl in Form von kleineren und größeren Supermärkten - jedoch ist auch hierfür ein Mietwagen sinnvoll.
Das Fahren in Aruba mit dem Auto ist problemlos - man muss nur auf die teilweise schlechten Straßen achten, die teilweise auch nicht asphaltiert und ggf für Nicht Allrad-Kfz ungeeignet sind.
Alles in Allem war Camacuri eine sehr schöne Unterkunft abseits vom Massentourismus.
Wilfred und auch die Angehörigen an der Rezeption waren sehr freundlich standen bei Fragen immer hilfreich zur Verfügung.
Danke für die schöne Zeit !!

Es hat uns sehr gut gefallen im Camacuri Apartment. Alles sauber, alle sehr freundlich. Sehr ruhige Anlage. In max. 10 Minuten ist man an einem sehr schönen Strand mit tollen Bars und Restaurants die auch deutlich günstiger sind wie an den Stränden der Hotel Area.
Good location, had everything we needed. Chairs, Beach chairs and coolers! We used them everyday! Apartment management very pleasant and helpful. Walked to a few bars and restaurants at surf beach.

Heerlijk en gezellig verblijf met alles dat een mens nodig heeft. Echt heel fijn!
Het eerste contact met de gastheren was al super fijn. Ze denken met je mee en genieten zelf mee als jij dat ook doet in hun verblijf. Zelden zulke betrokken eigenaren meegemaakt. En wat een heerlijk smaakvol ingericht huisje. Alles aanwezig, van airco, ventilatoren, genoeg kleerhangers, tot adaptors, föhn, strijkplank, strijkijzer, ruime laden in de badkamer, magnetron en andere apparatuur in de keuken etc etc…koelboxen, strandstoeltjes, niks ontbreekt! Wij hebben het heerlijk gehad en komen zeker terug! Dankjullie wel Wilfred en Eric!!! Groetjes, Joël, Sammy en Suzanne
