Aruba Ocean Villas

Top choice in Aruba


When guests arrive at this collection of dazzling and eclectic overwater bungalows, they often wonder if somehow they've been transported to the Maldives, or perhaps Tahiti. Truth be told, the place isn't like anything on those islands or elsewhere – it's a figment of an exceptional Aruban artist's wild imagination that's been brought vividly to life.

The hardwood, thatched-roof bungalows contain such features as pianos and crystal chandeliers, vintage chaises longes and clawfoot tubs, plus floor-to-ceiling windows with astounding views of the sparkling sea. Each bungalow is dedicated to a person the artist knows or a concept she holds dear. Each drips with style.

Rounding things off are Jacuzzi tubs, swaying coco palms, a spa and a fabulous restaurant. There is no television. There are no children. What are you waiting for?
