The Neighborhood
★ OVERVIEW ★ Pelican Beach Villa is in the premium residential neighborhood of Malmok, a beautiful area on the northwest coastline of Aruba which boasts some of the Island's most beautiful pristine white-sand beaches with crystal aqua-marine waters. Just across the street from the villa are several Malmok beaches, including Aruba’s world renowned “Turtle Beach,” where you can experience the opportunity to snorkel with wild sea turtles. Malmok features several snorkeling spots offering an unparalleled experience of breathtaking underwater worlds, including the picturesque Boca Catalina Beach with its sugar-white sands nestled along the Caribbean sun. And when you're ready for a change of scenery, the lively Arashi Beach is just a 2-minute drive away, with its bustling beach bar, shallow waters, and incredible sunsets, making it one of the most spectacular sunsets in the world. Malmok offers a tranquil and picturesque setting for those seeking a relaxing beach getaway or water sports adventure. ★ EAGLE BEACH ★ Eagle Beach, perhaps Aruba's most famous beach, is a 10-minute drive to the south. This was recently voted the number #1 beach in the Caribbean (and the number #2 beaches in the world!) according to TripAdvisor's Travelers' Choice 2023. Eagle Beach is the widest beach of Aruba with more than a kilometre of pure perfection – white sands lapped by crystal clear blue waters with the iconic wind-bent divi divi (or fofoti) trees and the daily iridescent breathtaking sunsets over the water. If you're lucky, you may even spot turtles nesting on the shore. Despite its fame, Eagle Beach remains a tranquil sanctuary, quieter than Palm Beach, with plenty of space for everyone to sunbathe, play, or read a book. The area offers an uncrowded atmosphere, with a range of dining and water sports activities available. Eagle Beach is simply a genuine paradise for beach lovers. ★ PALM BEACH ★ Dynamic Palm Beach in front of the international hotels is a 3-minute drive (or an easy 15-minute stroll along the boardwalk) and a world away from your villa. Dotted with lively bars, water sports outfits, and restaurants on the pristine sand beach, it’s a perfect place for quick shore and beach comfort excitement before returning to the peace and quiet of your villa. All of Aruba's beaches are public and open to all. ★ OTHER BEACHES ★ There are many other amazing beaches well worth exploring in Aruba, including Mangel Halto, Roger’s Beach, and the popular Baby Beach. Your villa will include a manual that further explains beach, sightseeing and dining activities on the island. ★ KITE SURFING ★ The area is also world famous for its kite and windsurfing. Aruba's constant trade winds, extensive shallows and challenging wave conditions make Aruba a surfer’s paradise. Surfing over flat-water locations while watching the beautiful Aruban coastline at sunset will melt all your stress away. Whether you are a beginner or an expert, you'll find a suitable location and tuition for windsurfing and kitesurfing in Aruba. The constant 15-knot trade winds, along with the variety of flat-water locations and challenging wave conditions, have made Aruba one of the most popular spots on earth for windsurfers and kitesurfers. ★ GOLF ★ Tierra del Sol at the north of the island features an 18-hole Championship desert links Golf Course designed by famed architect Robert Trent Jones II, providing a truly exhilarating experience for golfers of all levels. This 18-hole championship course offers breathtaking views of the Caribbean Sea and the Aruban countryside. With its lush fairways, strategically placed bunkers, and stunning ocean panoramas, the golf course promises a memorable and enjoyable round in a beautiful setting. ★ ENTERTAINMENT ★ The villa’s location puts you just a few minutes from bustling Palm Beach and the indulgences of the highrise hotel area while offering easy access to an eclectic mix of restaurants, shopping, bars, casinos, entertainment, and exciting nightlife, making it a popular choice for those seeking a lively vacation experience. In addition, Pelican Beach Villa is just minutes away from a wide variety of ocean activities, water sports,golfing, spas, casinos, the new IMAX Gloria movie theatre, the hospital (which you hopefully won’t need), the Super Food supermarket, Beach Tennis Aruba, and the tranquil low-rise resort area with its sandy beaches. Or venture into Oranjestad, the capital and largest city of Aruba, located 15 minutes to the south. This vibrant town is known for its colorful Dutch colonial architecture, lively atmosphere, and rich cultural heritage. Visitors can explore historic landmarks such as Fort Zoutman and the Willem III Tower, shop for local crafts and souvenirs in bustling markets, and enjoy a wide range of dining options and entertainment venues.
