Le Chateau Ocean Villas

Thank goodness for our host Fred (who we now lovingly call uncle fred from Aruba lol) He let us check in within 15 minutes of booking, greeted us at the gate, gave us the run down of everything, and was available for any questions or concerns (which there were no concerns) that we had. Such a well kept place within walking distance to food and shopping. We truly felt home here! Bed was comfy, sheets were soft and clean, pillows were perfect and, really I just can’t say enough good things about this place. You won’t regret your stay here! We only got to stay 4 days (we had a little misfortune on the first 4 days of our 8 day vaca), and we hope/plan to stay here on our return visit to Aruba. Thank you again Uncle Fred! Sincerely, your visitors from Oklahoma. 😍

Great Aruba Apartment See Special Note at bottom. The apartment was exceptional. Clean, well stocked and secure. Fred is the owner and lives on site. This was our 4th visit to Aruba. We decided to avoid the high rise hotel / condo area. And, we are so hsppy we did. We walked just about everywhere because the apartment is just across the street from Surfside Beach. And a couple of blocks from The Marketplace mall. The ****** is next to the mall. Fred suggested we eat at the West Deck on our first night. The food was great and we went back and suggested it to others. Fred also suggested walking south on Surfside Beach and exploring. We ended up at Reflxions Beach Club and Restaurant . Once again, good food and a fun way to relax. We rented chairs and an umbrella for US$20 for the day! Walking / exploring Oranjestad is an adventure. 5 min or less from the Marketplace. Many places to eat and shop. Since you will be in an apartment there is a grocery store Mercardo in downtown. It caters to locals so the prices are much less and variety is superior to convience store in the Marketplace. There is s new upscale mall. The result is that there are numerous empty store fronts in old downtown. There are still plenty of shopping options so don't miss this area. Consider The California Lighthouse Dinner$$$ but truely unique, the Chop House at the Rennisance$$, and the Atlantis Submarine. NOTE, Arriving in Aruba by plane is easy and quick. GOING back to US Allow 3 hours extra!!

It was close to everything we could walk to all the places we wanted

Very friendly owner!!!!

Fred Gee is a super host. The unit was very clean. We have stayed at his facility in the past and we go again. Great location.

The property's location was exactly where we wanted to be... One block from beach and an easy , safe walk to a great area for dining/shopping. Did not feel crowded and the locals are always delightful. The room was fine for the price point, exactly as expected. Missing a few necessities, but our host, Fred ,took care of things once mentioned. He was very kind when we thought our flight home was cancelled and even offered to pick us up from airport, if we needed to get back.
