Please contact us if you have any questions, we would love to have you as our guests! Guest access This home is entirely yours during your stay. You will have complete privacy. Other things to note We highly recommend you take out travel insurance as soon as you book your trip as this provides you with immediate cover for unforeseen emergencies. Travel insurance helps cover financial loss associated with surprise circumstances that could ruin a trip, including illness, injury, accidents, flight or other transportation delays, and other issues. Please understand that if you do not have travel insurance, any losses because of emergencies will be at your own risk and we uphold our VRBO or Airbnb cancellation policy and only refund according to those policies. Your water and electricity is INCLUDED in your rental. However, we do take meter readings and ask our guests to be energy concious and report running toilets, turn off AC when the rooms are not in use. On behalf of Casa Mia, we place a ‘welcome package’ in your home for the first few days of your rental. These items include toilet paper (2 rolls per toilet), kitchen paper (1), dishwashing sponge (1), dishwashing liquid, handsoap and garbage bags (5). We also have coffee, sugar, tea, coffee filters and some detergent for the a few washes. Our homes also have a decent amount of condiments and spices for cooking. These items come and go, so the inventory is not consistent. Should any of these items run out during your stay, you would have to purchase these at your own expense. We also provide linen for the beds, 1 big and one small bath towel and 1 one beach towel per guest, a cooler and beach chairs to take to the beach. We do not provide an umbrella since they tend to be hazardous with the strong winds in Aruba, they break within a day. All watersport huts rent lounge chairs and large heavy duty parasols. We might have inflatable pool floats or other things like snorkel masks, however, guests also break them and loose them all the time, other guests do leave some again, so we cannot guarantee their presence. Hair dryer, iron and ironing board are present in our home. We do not supply washcloths, shampoo, body wash and conditioner in our bathrooms. CAR RENTAL: We highly recommend renting a car while on vacation in Aruba. The heat makes even small distances uncomfortable to walk, especially carrying beach chairs, towels, coolers, beach bag, floats and other things that make your beach time more enjoyable. Getting sunburned walking back from the beach may negatively affect your entire vacation. Furthermore, the roads are a bit dark at night and since everyone drives everywhere, most roads have no sidewalks so you walk in the sand next to the roads. Driving is easy in Aruba! Traffic is slow and the island is very small (you drive from one tip of the island to the other tip in 45 minutes!) so you can't really get lost. And maybe the most import reason to rent a car: you will get to see so much more of Aruba and make the most out of your vacation. TAXI SERVICE: Taxi service is great, very fast and safe, but leaving the house a few times a day for groceries, beach visits and restaurants might cost more in the end than renting a car, so you might as well rent a car and enjoy the luxury to have 24 hour transportation at your fingertips. Please be aware taxis are not allowed to take on more than 5 passengers, so for large groups it will cost you 4 taxis for a round trip out of the house.
