It was the best of both worlds. We had 2 bedrooms, a full kitchen, and living space but they also provided daily cleaning and fresh towels. It’s beautiful inside the complex and the pools were so clean. We loved having shaded porch areas right outside our door while watching our child swim. ##### Alexandra O.

This location was close to beaches, 14 minute drive from the airport and also the neighbor of the Famous Papiamento restaurant. Carlos was a great host, he was also able to accommodate me with an additional night since I totally booked incorrectly with one less day. The pool was clean and also convenient. I would definitely rent this villa again. ##### khadiyah m.

We very much enjoyed our stay and the unit itself. Our only concern was the inconsistent hot water. Otherwise, we loved the atmosphere. ##### Aimee S. Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### LaToria P. 4 Nov 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Absolutely Amazing Property We couldn’t have picked a better place to stay during our girl’s trip to Aruba. The island being so small, the Costa Esmeralda property is close enough to everything (literally minutes from Eagle and Palm Beach), and an easy 15 minute drive from the airport. The place is emaculate, and it was nice having our own little casita away from the big hotels. Cleaning service is offered daily if you want it, and the homes are huge. Neighbors/other rental guests were quiet, the property was safe…I couldn’t have chosen a better rental. My friend and I agreed- whenever we visit Aruba, Costa Esmeralda is where we’ll stay. ##### LaToria P.

The only drawback for me was the lighting is a bit dark at night in the apartment. I had to take the shades off to brighten it up a bit. However I would stay here again.. ##### Judy G. Stayed 4 nights in Mar 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### David V. 25 Mar 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Cozy, private getaway Don't let the neighborhood scare you on the drive to find Costa Esmerelda. When you arrive you'll have found a secluded, quiet and private oasis with immaculate courtyard and lush plants. Both pools are sparkling clean. Our unit was comfortable and clean. The manager met us and guided us to our room to provide exemplary customer service. The location is far enough away from the hotel scene to be quiet, but only a 3-5 minute drive away. Eagle Beach is about 5-7 minutes away and Mt. Hooiberg 10 minutes. We were able to walk to a couple restaurants. We love this place and will definitely come back! ##### David V. Stayed 5 nights in Mar 2021 ### 8/10 Good #### Laura P. 3 Mar 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great apartment. Costa Esmeralda is a great property to stay at. It was very clean. The only drawback is that you will need a car as it is a little bit far from the beach. ##### Laura P. Stayed 8 nights in Feb 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Daniel P. 10 Feb 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Very Nice Property! We stayed here 3 days/2nights following a week at another property. The communication with the property manager could not have been better. The property was immaculate at check in and very well maintained. The same goes for the surrounding grounds. We will definitely use this property again to extend our stay in Aruba. Highly recommended! ##### Daniel P. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Gregory A., Windsor Ontario 22 Nov 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great place to stay. Cleanliness ##### Gregory A. Stayed 3 nights in Nov 2020 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Robert D. 7 Jan 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great Stay for a Family Property is meticulously maintained and the garden is just absolutely beautiful. The two bedroom house configuration with two twins in one bedroom and one queen in the other bedroom worked out perfectly for our family of 4. We would venture out and enjoy the beach/activities and then return back for the afternoon at the house. The little patio surrounded by beautiful trees and plants were beautiful and peaceful as well as private, The house gave everyone a space to retreat to for a quiet time. We would stay here again when we come back to Aruba. ##### Robert D. Stayed 6 nights in Dec 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Susan S. 25 May 2018 #### Tranquil serenity Are you overworked, stressed out and in need of some tender loving care? Costa Esmerelda is your prescription! Meticulously maintained with genuine concern for every guest’s positive experience. Samuel and Carlos are exemplary hosts in concert with gardeners, housekeeping and maintenance staff -all work together, with a smile, to deliver a quiet, thoughtful, artfully aesthetic and relaxing stay. While Aruba is known as “One Happy Island” Costa Esmeralda is the dazzling jewel of Aruba’s crown. The property is convenient to world class beaches, fantastic shopping. Varied island highlights ( sailing, snorkel, historic buildings, remarkable restaurants) are all just minutes away by car. The bonus is Papiamento ( historic restaurant) right next door for the true gourmet. Relax, unwind, breathe deeply and exhale at Costa Esmerelda a magical garden retreat. ##### Susan S.

The grounds are very well kept. Lovely place to stay. My only complaint is that the room was a bit dark. ##### Anne P. Stayed 4 nights in Feb 2017
