We had a fabulous time. Hosts were terrific and very accommodating. We requested a few kitchen items and they arrived very quickly. The villa was beautiful, very comfortable and relaxing. The outdoor patio area was also used and was relaxing. One of the beaches was very close - 2-3 min walk. We would absolutely return and hope we can stay in the same Villa again.

Amazing vacation rental. The house was clean and new. Great area to stay on the island. The balcony’s were on both sides of the house. The patio was private and had a nice pool. Nice floor plan. The realtor was available for questions and very responsive. Nice to have a washer and dryer. Close to but not on the beach, just a short walk. Would definitely recommend.

Sea La Vie was the absolute perfect villa for our family of 7. The decor was stunning and it was well equipped with everything needed to make our stay easy. The hosts were beyond attentive, going well above the expectations, answering any and all questions as well as reaching out to check in. Arrival and departure were super easy. The location was perfect with some of the world’s best beaches within yards of the villa. Additionally, the high rise strip was a short drive. We would highly recommend this villa and look forward to returning soon!

Perfect island getaway

An absolutely beautiful piece of property. The location is ideal, away from all the hustle and bustle with some of the most beautiful beaches just a few yards away. The backyard space is perfect for when the sun gets too hot at the beach and the various balconies were perfect for sunrise and sunsets. Ruben and company were so helpful before and during our stay. I would absolutely recommend this property to anyone considering a stay in Malmok!

This property was perfect for our stay in Aruba. There were two couples, so we each had our own suite on our own floor. Very open and nice for entertaining and lounging by the pool. The location was perfect for beach access. Snorkeling is great at Boca Catalina!

AMAZING stay at Catalina Villas!

We stayed at Catalina villas for 7 nights. It couldn't have been better! It is more beautiful in person than in the pictures. It truly is stunning and stocked with everything you could ever need. The location is ideal - a short walk to Boca Catalina, Tres Trapi and Arashi beach. We snorkeled every morning. It's such a quiet part of the island, but only a five minute drive to palm beach with all of the dining and shopping. Ruben is a great host! We contacted him on the first night of our stay to let him know the propane in the gas grill had run out. He had a new tank there within 20 minutes. He also checked in with us a couple of times just to make sure everything was to our satisfaction. We can't wait to return!

Excellent stay

I will be brief and say that our stay was excellent. Some things stood out above others when I think about the trip. The biggest stand out is the communication by the house host/owner, Ruben. He was easy to contact and quick to respond with any needs. I thought the house itself was also well represented on the site. It was a spacious house with a great location. I would 100% stay here again.

Awesome place

This is a beautiful villa townhouse. Very homey with all the amenities you need. The closest beach is about a 1-2 min walk across the street and it is beautiful, gorgeous white sand and lots of fish and pelicans to watch. The property manager is very accommodating and responsive. I would recommend renting a car or van. We didn't, and taxis were not the cheapest mode of transportation. It’s a short walk to Arashi beach where there is a nice beach bar with decent food for lunch. Nearby restaurant OceanZ was a phenomenal meal for dinner. We very much enjoyed our stay!

New Year Family Escape

Our family wanted an escape after Christmas to celebrate the new year. The 4 bedrooms with their own bathrooms were perfect to give everyone space. We enjoyed the rooftop views of sunset and the pool deck was a fun space to enjoy sunshine, grill out, and hang out with our college kids. This perfect location made walking to the beach easy and walkable. Any questions or issues were handled by Ruben so quickly and accommodated us in a friendly manor. Alicia organized a few excursions and our favorite was the Safari to the national forest. So fun! I highly recommend staying here!
