Great stay! The space comfortably fit our group of 10. Love that this unit is close to the pool, and all waterfront units have direct access to docks. The pool slides, excellent fishing & game room were all hits with the kids. We’d book again.

This place was great place to stay, great location, great amenities! We really liked the cleanliness of the house! I think maybe if possible a better broom, or vacuum. We really enjoyed it overall! Would love to come back again!

Very Satisfied!
Were were very satisfied with our recent stay. Clean and just as described. The pellet ice maker was a very nice surprise! Seemed a little much that in addition to renting the property we also had to rent one of the boat slips (vs. it just being included with the stay), but no other complaints really. We enjoyed the place and had a great stay.

The property was very nice and clean. I’m glad it was also close to the beach.
We will probably plan another trip in the future. We had a wonderful time. I called management when we left because my grandchildren left their iPad and the housekeeper found it and y’all sent it to us I am very grateful.

Reviewer Comments:
This was our second year here, and we've already signed for next year. Everything about the property itself was wonderful. When we needed repairs, they were done quickly. One thing that brings it down slightly was the sofas. They're very soft and difficult to get out of. Basically, we sat in the barrel chairs the whole time (including last year) as they gave more support and fit shorter people better.

Bayside townhome
Great stay, loved the decks and husband appreciated slip for boat. Great time fishing, beaches close by, property had many fun things for kids to do like game room, 2 pools, basketball half court, and pickle ball court. House was clean and beautifully decorated, had everything needed for cooking. Husband loved the ice maker machine! Recommend property clean pool more frequently and recommend a table for deck, as would be great to eat out there. Overall an awesome stay, had a wonderful time.

Amazing beach escape
We had an excellent and relaxing stay at the Fair Winds. The community is quiet and relaxing, with excellent amenities in the Yacht club (fitness center, games, pool with TWO slides) and activities at night for the kids. A personal dock on the back for boats with amazing views of the sunset in the evenings. Close to the beach, walking distance if you're willing to walk 10 - 15 min or so, or a 3 minute drive. Townhouse is well furnished and clean. My kids are already asking when we can go back! We would happily stay here again in the future!

Aruba Bay is a fun place, especially with kids, the pool/slide area is a lot of fun for them. We stayed in a canal side unit with direct access to the pier and we had a lot of fun fishing. The unit itself was very spacious and had 3 full bathrooms, which was great for our family of 5. We would definitely stay in this unit again!

The place is very cute. The back of the house faces the water and a great spot to fish. We even saw dolphins from the back porch. The unit is right next to the pool which made it very convenient since we had young kids. The kids and adults had fun on the water slides
