Unit was fine for what we needed overall. Could definitely use some updating as there were someThings in need of repair. Shower was very difficult to regulate temp. The listing said it had beach chairs but we arrived for them to be just camping chairs ... so we had to spend extra money on hair rentals . Location was great, we def explored the area!! Biggest complaint was it was listed that where was laundry on site. This was one of the main reasons I picked this unit as I was traveling to another country after and wanted to do laundry before I left. Sunday afternoon I planned to sit at the pool while doing my laundry and then head out to my final sunset. However, come to find out at 430pm there was no laundry on site. I asked a few people there and they said their wasn't but tried to help me search for it. I contacted the host and after claiming there was and my saying no one could find it, all I got was a "oh sorry". I ended up having to find an open laundry mat on a Sunday at 5pm.... and missed the final BEAUTIFUL sunset!

This was a great place to stay. During our time which was in off-season, we found that the condo is in the perfect location for ever where we wanted to visit it was quiet in the evening and had some hustle and bustle in the daytime. The condo is exactly what we were looking for.We got great restaurant suggestions from the owner and everyone we dealt with was very easy to talk to and eager to please I would love to go back to Aruba and stay at this place again hands down. Thank you very much for having us

Wacamaya is a beautiful ,like a mini resort.

Wacamaya is a great spot. This was our 3 rd time at wacamaya. Close to all the beaches. Close to downtown Palm Beach. Condo was perfect, clean and everything you would need. The pool and the grounds are absolutely beautiful. Only thing I would add is a tea kettle,as I am a tea drinker . Sartini is not far away and responses very quickly. She was great.. overall we had a fantastic 3 week vacation and looking forward to next year.

Very nice complex. Loved the location and the pool. Sartini and Sanne were very responsive and helpful. This was a real plus since it was our first visit to Aruba. The "Yum Yum" discounts were much appreciated and well used, and the car rental set up by Sartini was great. We would definitely stay again.

Nice pleasant visit

Nice, clean apartment, which seemed a bit bigger than we expected based on the photos. Easy access and parking, and nice and quiet! Not much in easy walking distance so we were glad to have a rental car. Only very minor negative I could say was the lack of soap/shampoo in the bathroom. Not a big deal though, especially at this price point. Beach towels and chairs were provided, and I think I saw some snorkeling gear in the closet as well, though we had our own. On arrival we were also given a couple discount codes to a local supermarket, etc which was nice. The apartment complex had a nice pool but beware - it has dangerously slick tiles.

Fabulous Find!

We had an excellent 8 day stay at Wacamaya! Our host, Sartini was amazing! She answered questions promptly, met us at check-in and was available for any questions throughout our stay. We appreciated having beach chairs, coolers and towels available, the pool is lovely, the condo is exactly as it appears in the pictures. We can't wait to go back! Highly recommend!

Renting was very simple, but had not notice the funds were in US at first. But all well. We enjoyed being so close to our main event, kite boarding, it was 4 min by car. Communication with owner was also easy and was able to help out with everything.

Great spot to relax

We picked this place because Sartini is the manager and she’s the best. She is such a nice person and so helpful. The apartment was very comfortable and we loved the pool. Parking spaces are within a gated enclosure and secure. If I could improve one thing, it would be nice if the tv had access to streaming channels.

Loved it!

I stayed at Sartini’s place in Wacamaya condos for a week on my own. The condos are amazing and they’re a 5-minute drive to Arashi beach and Palm beach. The swimming pool is beautiful and is cleaned every morning. Sartini was a really great and helpful host - she offered to print some paperwork for me when I asked her about the nearest print shop. I also asked her if we could do an early checkin at 9.30AM which wasn’t an issue at all. Overall would recommend staying here - or in any of Sartini’s properties.
