About this property

Blue Hamlet - Enjoy today with the future in mind

A comfortable stay, a smaller ecological footprint, in harmony with the environment. A small house with a spacious garden in a quiet neighborhood in the north of Aruba. Our house, where we stay for a month and a half a year, is simple but practical and geared to a short stay in Aruba. With the layout and facilities of the house we strive for the smallest possible ecological footprint during your stay in Aruba.

A stay in peace and with plenty of living space. We have deliberately opted for a simple but functional arrangement. The spacious garden and quiet neighborhood gives a sea of tranquility. Various activities and beautiful beaches can be found in the immediate vicinity. In the garden and behind the garden there is a lot of small game, such as various species of lizards, geckos, a single iguana, trupials, parakeets and even hummingbirds.

In order to realize the smallest possible ecological footprint during your stay, we have now made the following provisions:
- Drain shower, sink and kitchen sink for the (underground) watering of the garden.
- Cover the garden with a layer of recycled gravel.
- Optimized dripping system for watering the plants.
- Outdoor areas made of cement and sandy soil from the garden.
- Electric cooking instead of gas. Electricity is being worked up locally and for an increasing share in a sustainable way.

The house has been in our possession since 2017 and we are therefore certainly not finished optimizing the house. The facilities we want to realize are:
- Solar panels, planned realization at the end of 2019.
- Renovation of air conditioning and realization of ventilation system, planned realization at the end of 2019.
- New window frames with double glazing, planned realization in mid-2023.
- Insulation on the outside of the house, planned realization in mid-2027.

Your stay in our home contributes directly to the realization of these facilities. In addition, we will support local projects and facilities in the area of sports and culture in Aruba with the proceeds from the lease.

The house is in complete accessibility except for the storage room. Currently a small room is equipped as storage space. The room is not locked for safety reasons. We ask you not to enter this room without consultation.

We are not on Aruba during your stay. We can be reached by telephone and via various messaging services such as WhatsApp. Moreover, there is a property manager that we can switch.

The house has a limited number of towels (8 pieces), bath towels (6 pieces) and bedding (3 sets) available. During your stay there is no service for cleaning and laundry. The laundry is located about 2.5 km from the house
After your stay, the towels and bed linen are washed and the house cleaned. We ask you to do the dishes before departure.

Your residence is located in the north of Aruba in a quiet and tidy neighborhood. The back of the garden borders on untapped territory (the cunuc). The lovely beaches of Malmok Beach, Boca Catalina and Arashi Beach are 2 to 3 km away. The California Lighthouse is 5 km from the property. The beautiful rugged east coast of the island is within walking distance. Three beautiful and well marked mountain bike trails are set 800 meters from the house.

Couldn't have been better!
We had a great week at Blue Hamlet. Location was perfect as a base camp for any Aruba activity you are getting into. On a small island everything is minutes away but this was really a great place. Very comfortable for a couple and a nice quiet neighborhood backed by cacti and trees. Mischa gave us all the info we needed for our stay and never needed to reach for him aside from check in and check out. Can't wait to come back!

Bliss in Aruba
Our stay was very enjoyable. Communication with Mischa was excellent. He answered all my inquiries within a few hours. The check in is very straight forward, lock box outside the main entrance. The house is exactly as shown in the listing. The kitchen had everything we needed, we cooked most of the time. There is an A/C unit in the bedroom and a floor fan in the living room, but even with all the windows open, it is very hot. Ceiling fan would be a great improvement. The bathroom is small, but adequate. There is no hot water, but we didn't mind at all. After a day at the beach it was very welcome to have a lukewarm shower. The bedroom is spacious, with a good bed, it would be nice to have a dresser as well as the armoires.. Quiet neighbourhood, other than the rooster at the back of the garden and some dogs barking at night. The garden has two chaise lounges and a hammock. You should bring some bug spray, there are sand flies and mosquitos, so if you want to eat outside, as we did, be prepared. Our favorite beach was Arashi, about 5 minutes by car. It can get very crowded in the afternoon, especially when the cruise ship is in port. We usually went to the beach around 8:30 to reserve a palapa. When the sea is calm, there is great snorkelling. There is a nice trail along the beach toward the northern end of the island. It is very near the light house, which is a must to visit, especially in the evening for the sunset and the Happy hour. Car is a necessity, a jeep is better if you want to ride the eastern part of the island. There are lots of supermarkets, we used the closest , Ting Wai supermarket, for small purchases and did our weekly shopping at Super Food, about 10 mins away. Huge, modern supermarket with anything you might want and more. Aruba is very casual, no need for much fancy clothing. Cant beat the weather!

Good new house and neighborhood
Our stay was good. The property is new and clean. It is located in pretty new neighborhood. The only uncomfortable things were: - absence of hot water; - unstable Internet; - no air conditioning in sitting room.
