Since our Grand Openning in October 2008, we received many positive reviews from our
previous guests. Many of them came to Aruba for special occations: Wedding Aniversary,
Birthdays, Weddings. A lot of them came for a dream family vacations. They had a great
time and wrote to us to share their experiences:

"We went to Aruba for our anniversary on December 28 and stayed for 7 Beautiful days! I found this condo on vacationrentals.com
and called Cindy asking for more information. She was so helpful and answered all my questions, which were alot. We usually
stay in timeshares
so this was something new for us. I had a good feeling about the place just through talking to her and the pictures she shared with
us. The grounds were very clean and the guards at the gate were very helpful. The swimming pool was very inviting and relaxing.
She had beach towels and chairs for us. You can take the chaise louge chairs to the beach which was very nice! The place we
stayed was the 2 bedroom which was more space then we needed but was nice. The water is delicious so you didn't need to buy
bottle water. We enjoyed our table and chairs on the balcony. We ate out and cooked in. The 2 grocery stores we went to were
Ling & Sons and Super Foods. Super Foods had the better prices but Ling & Sons had more choices. I recommend LePetit just 2
blocks down from our place, we walked to it. The service and food Great! (check out Tonys' art) We also ate at Smokey Joes,
Alfredos and Matthews. We walked to Matthews in Eagle Beach and Smokey Joes which is about 1 mile to Palm beach. (We are
walkers.) The view from our place was BEAUTIFUL!!!! We went snorkeling at Baby Beach, Malmok Beach and Arashi Beach. We
didn't make it to Captain Rodger and Boca Grand to snorkel but next time we will. We rented a car for the whole week which was
good for us. We drove to The Natural Bridge, Seroe Colorado Lighthouse and California Lighthouse. We had so much fun
exploring Aruba!! We went to Palm Beach to check out the highrise resorts just to make sure where we want to stay next time.
You can start at the Holiday Inn or the other end of Palm Beach. We started at the Divi Phoenix resort and walked all along the
ocean and saw all the resorts and what they offer, I think it was about a mile walk. We realized that we stayed at the BEST place
for us and will be going back. The best kept secret is the little phone/internet booth inside the shopping area at the Alhambra
Casino behind Dunkin Donuts. We didn't take a computer or phone so this was good for us. We were in the middle of everything
which was good, we could go one way to Oranjestad, Palm Beach, San Cruz and San Nicolasa. We will be visiting again soon.

" We've been to Aruba several times. We usually come every winter. In the past we stayed at low rise hotels, we liked them but
the prices went up and with the economy we were looking for something more affordable.In our search we came across the
Oceania, it fell into our price range and looked as if it could accomodate the 6 of us. So we booked. Upon arrival we were quite
impressed at the size and found it more than sapcious enough with out getting in each others way. very pretty ,clean and inviting.
We liked the fact that we could stay in and cook instead of going out to eat every night. We were supplied with every thing we
needed , shampoo, body soap laundy detergent and cleaning supplies, pots dishware, big towels, the works.Cindy was very
accomodating and answered all our questions. We were able to do laundry which was a great plus. I loved sitting on the patio
with my morning coffee. The jacuzzi on top of the roof was very relaxing under the stars. I would give the condo an A+. The
Connecticut six."

We had to make quick changes to our vacation to The Cayman Islands because of a freak late season hurricane. Made a last
minute call to the owner who was very accommodating and helped us set things up. Cindy the owner responded to Emails,
usually by phone to answer all our questions.
The condo is almost new and very nice. Still needs some items in the kitchen that will most likely appear as time goes on. Still
needs some finishing touches. Location is good. A car is necessary. View from the roof top terrace is beyond description. With a
bit more outdoor furniture and a gas grill I would live up there.Beautiful pool and grounds. Some construction going on but it did
not interrupt us at all.
Norbert, the on sight manager is very helpful. Responded to all our needs.
A great experience over all. Our second trip to Aruba and I highly recommend the Island and this condo.
Cindy is a outstanding Host. I hope we can return again."

Cindy,
We can't thank you enough for allowing us to rent your condo in beautiful Aruba!!! We are already planning to return with family
and stay in 522 again!!!!
We absolutely loved everything! it was a perfect honeymoon! Thank you for remembering us and giving us the lovely champagne.
The condo is spectacular: the decks are beautiful, the rooftop jaccuzi was awesome, the bed and all the furniture was comfortable
and pretty, the air conditioning, water pressure and kitchen supplies were perfect, and the building location was wonderful: right
on the beach, amazing pools, great facilities (business office etc.) Overall an excellent value and wonderful time.
We can't express enough what a great time we had and our only wish was that we could have stayed longer!!!! We really can't
wait to come back and rent from you again. Aruba is a perfect vacation spot and Oceania is the BEST place to stay in Aruba!!!
Thanks for making everything so easy and comfortable for us and for all of your help in planning our trip. We really appreciate it!
We will recommend you to everyone!
Thanks again,
Brittany and Adam Beagley
