IMPORTANT NOTES:
Upon arrival, there is a cash cleaning fee of $280 USD for the cleaning after your stay. This is not charged through VRBO because your rental payment goes to the homeowners' bank account in America. The cleaning gets done by a local company in Aruba, so it is more efficient to have the cleaning paid out on location.

We highly recommend you take out travel insurance as soon as you book your trip as this provides you with immediate cover for unforeseen emergencies. Travel insurance helps cover financial losses associated with surprise circumstances that could ruin a trip, including illness, injury, accidents, flight or other transportation delays, and other issues. Please understand that if you do not have travel insurance, any losses because of emergencies will be at your own risk and we uphold our VRBO cancellation policy and only refund according to this policy.

Your water and electricity is INCLUDED in your rental.
However, we do take meter readings and ask our guests to be energy concious and report running toilets, turn off AC when the rooms are not in use.

What a great experience! We were “stuck” in Aruba due to the snowstorm up in the northeast, and I had to scramble to secure lodging for my family. We spent four glorious and relaxing days here and would do it again (maybe even over the hotel zone)! We lived like locals and felt very comfortable.

Villa Carpe Diem was the most perfect spot for seven girl friends vacationing together for the week! Plenty of room for all and cooking/grilling there some saved us quite a bit. Such a great value, Having a washer and dishwasher was so nice. Everyone loved the pool! We truly loved our stay and would definately return.Now for the amazing and personal service of our hosts? PHENOMENAL!!!! Communication was perfect in every way.Rixt help arrange two of the seven to “sneak in” the day before in order to put together a suprise 50th Birthday party for our dear friend and she was happily shocked! We were met by Daniel and he was such a warm, welcoming, laid back and WONDERFUL HOST!!! Please do not ever hesitate booking with The Marin Team, they are amazing folks with top notch accommodation's.
