WARNING!!!

If you are considering renting “Villa Makai” at Bakval 15-I, please note that according to Aruban Police records, this house has been broken into more than 20 times since 2005. This house is advertised on the Internet (Google "Villa Makai") We rented this property from Anneke Gorter of the Malmok Management Company. On December 20, 2008, while we were renting this house, it was broken into and burglarized. We lost over $20,000 in personal property. We were never told before renting this house that it was a constant target for break-ins. For a more detailed report on what happened, go to the Aruba forums at Frommers and TripAdviser and search on "Villa Makai."

Be careful when renting a house in Aruba. Talk with the Aruban Police at phone: 297-587-0009 to make sure you don’t rent one of these “problem” houses.
