About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire condo to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

*** Best location and affordable. 5 minutes to Palm Beach ***

Why would you want to stay in an hotel room while you can enjoy our dream location condo in one of a 26 unit complex located in the best spot in Aruba for a fraction of the price while it is ideally located only 600 meters (a third of a mile) from the shores of beautiful Palm Beach. Well appointed, the condo has a private bedroom connecting to a large bathroom, functional kitchen, a smart HD television, Bose soundbar, high speed Wi-Fi, air conditioning and all other necessary amenities. Renting a car is recommended as you can be free to go around the island and also bring the Tommy Bahamas beach chairs and cooler provided in the unit. You just have to bring your bathing suite and toothbrush, we provide the rest !

Vacation
This place is in a great location! We rented a car to get around and I totally recommend it! Place was clean as description noted. Everything you needed Steve has available for use. The only thing would have been nice is having a few extra beach towels and an extra blanket. Description of condo says there is a hot tub, but in fact what looks like a hot tub is a smaller pool! Overall excellent experience and looking to come back and stay here again!! I highly recommended staying here!! Thanks

This is the place to stay...
If you dislike insects and love the heat, Aruba is the place to visit, and Wacamaya is the place to stay! Clean, accurate listing, attentive property manager, a short walk to the beach and to the entertainment and restaurant district, fantastic community-like atmosphere, wonderful pool and 'hot' tub, 3 barbecues on the property if you wish to make your own meals; and, after a day of fun in the sun, a comfy king-sized bed to rest your head. Absolutely Awesome! Thanks Steve.

First time in Aruba
The condo was exactly as described. Pool area was great at end of day. Shaded areas when needed and very clean. Probably a 15 to 20 minute walk to Palm beach and 3 minutes by car. We did make it to baby beach which was great. Eagle beach was really nice also. Palm beach is the most lively of the three. All beautiful. Steve was a pleasure to deal with. Responded to all questions promptly. Will definitely return.

Wonderfull property for a relaxing vacation in Aruba
The property is gated and well kept. It's close to everything as long as you have a car. We enjoyed coming back to the pool after a day at the beach and the bbq grills were a bonus. The unit is a one bedroom with an additonal Murphy bed in the living room. It was well equippted with everything we needed (i.e beach towels, cookware, dishes, silverware etc.) A cooler and beach chairs were provided which saves on renting those items at the beach. Keep in mind it's a second floor so there are stairs to climb but it really wasn't an issue. Overall it was a good experiance.

Nice condo at Wacamaya
Nice condo for a couple. Comfortable with a small balcony. Large king size bed which was very comfortable. Pool area was excellent with a good mix of sun and shade. Location was close to Palm Beach and all the restaurants. Plenty of parking in a gated lot. Only complaint was no dishwasher which would be a nice upgrade. Would definitely stay here again if we return to Aruba.

2 weeks in paradise
We spent 2 weeks the Wacamaya condos in Aruba. The 1 bedroom unit was spacious and ideal for our purposes. The lovely courtyard pool is an added bonus for those days you don’t feel like going to the beach. The courtyard/pool is popular with residents so can get busy and loud at times but everyone is very friendly. The location of the condo building is within walking distance to Palm Beach area(about 15 min. walk). We were glad we rented a car as it made it that much easier to go back and forth from the condo to either Palm or Eagle beach. The walking paths that run north and south along the shore were such a nice surprise. We made extensive use of them. Love Aruba.

Clean, comfortable and well equipped condo
The Condo is in a good location (a car rental is needed) to explore the best of Aruba. Very close to Palm and Eagle Beaches. The Wacamaya pool is a great place to hang out at, for a "stay" day. Great BBQ by the pool. Well equipped kitchen. The owner, Steve, was easily accessible if needed.

Lack of office at complex
My husband was critically ill in ICU at the hospital. I have stayed in this unit 2 years ago. The only downfall is it is on the second floor of a two storey building with steep stairs and no elevator. I was having a hard time sleeping because of my situation and for two nights there were many people partying, whooping and yelling below my bedroom window. This carriied on into the very late hours past 1 o'clock. There is no office located there so there is no one to complain to. The owner of the unit was kind enough to let me stay for 3 extra days or as many as I needed until we airlifted my husband home. I thank him profusely for doing that for me. He was also very fair with the price for the extra days.

Very nice 1 bedroom condo, very clean and well equipped, owner was very responsive when needed.
The only thing that I can add is that on vrbo, the pictures made it look like a ground floor unit and for us going up and down stairs to just get in and out was easy, but luggage and groceries without an elevator was not so easy. Otherwise, it was a lovely clean and well equipped condo. Very clean and safe.

COMFY, PRIVATE, WELL-EQUIPPED, AMAZING MANAGEMENT, AMAZING VIEW FOR NEW YEARS EVE, TOO!!
My husband and I were so happy with our decision to stay at Steve's property! He was incredibly kind and helpful, and responsive when we would text him! We have no complaints: we love the location, and the condo was perfect. It was clean, and equipped for cooking, and also there was chairs and coolers to bring to the beach, which was a huge benefit to us! There was also helpful reading material there that we absolutely embraced. I must also mention that the view of the fireworks around the island was absolutely breathtaking from the balcony outside the front door! Thank you, Steve!! We highly recommend this property!

Excellent secret hideaway
When we checked in the condo had not been cleaned from the previous renter. There had been confusion with the cleaning company & Steve the owner had it straightened out within 10 minutes. The condo was spotless after they cleaned it. I apologized for yelling at him. He was always very prompt at looking after any problem that arose. The grounds are clean, it is quiet & the neighbours are friendly. We look forward to returning. George & Nadene Hornibrook

Good home in an excellent location, but needs some updating
Pros: - Price: very affordable compared to what the hotels are charging - Location: only a few minutes away (by car) from the beaches and restaurants - Security: the complex is secure overall, but we did have some incidents which will be mentioned below - Pool & Courtyard: best part of the complex. Beautiful large pool with plenty of chairs. It was nice to have multiple BBQ grills which we used several times during our stay. - Kitchen was very well-equipped which made it easy to cook - Very comfortable king sized bed - Owner was very attentive and quick to answer any of our questions or concerns Cons: - Most of the furniture is showing some wear and tear (i.e. sofas, bathroom) - It was uncomfortably hot at times as we were not allowed to run both units at the same time. This normally wouldn’t be a problem, but the mesh screen part of the balcony door was broken. Thus, if we kept the door open, we would be bombarded by mosquitos. Very inconvenient. - There was bad sewage odor in the bathroom two of the days we stayed. We found out that it was occurring throughout the complex, but still a nuisance. - Loud construction noise occurring next to the complex that starts early in the morning. This probably won't end for a long time as the whole area is being developed. - We had two security incidents: the automated complex gate stopped working as we were coming in. Fortunately, there was just enough space for the car to get in without inflicting any damage. Another is that we had two men knock on our door saying that they were there to fix our A/C (as they said they saw our windows were open). After speaking with the owner (who told us not to let them in), this had us very concerned and from then on, we kept our windows closed. Overall: we enjoyed our stay in Aruba even with the issues we encountered. This is a good option to consider for someone who's looking to be close to the main attractions while not paying an arm and leg for it.

Another great vacation at Wacamaya
We just spent another three week vacation here at Wacamaya. It’s in close proximity to Tierra Del Sol golf course so my husband has a quick commute to his daily golf game. I snorkeled several times at Boca Catalina and went horseback riding three times a week. I highly recommend the great gang at Rancho La Ponderosa! If you have any questions or issues with the unit, Steve always replies promptly. It was great to get away from the frigid temperatures back home. You can’t beat Aruba!
