Hi Judy, I just wanted to thank your company Aruba Home Minders for their excellent property management services! As you may remember, I was working with another property management company on the island and had a very bad experience!  It’s so nice to be able to work with a company that is so professional! In particular, all my emails and text messages are always answered in a prompt manner and I feel like I can always depend on your team in the event of an emergency! I’m just sorry I wasn’t using Aruba Home Minders from the beginning! Thanks again for everything!

Aruba Home Minders managed our property in Noord for five years. We engaged them after performance of another management firm deteriorated to an unacceptable level, so we were experienced and very particular in our selection of AHM  - and we were never disappointed in our selection.

Three words are the cornerstones of our experience with Aruba Home Minders: Service, Reliability , nd Accountability.

  • The AHM team was always accessible to us by phone and email.
  • They leverage longstanding relationships with reliable vendors and tradesmen to ensure that maintenance and repair jobs are of professional quality and fairly priced.
  • They know Aruba, and participate in key hospitality, real estate and tourism organizations - including government liaison.
  • Their financial procedures are 100% transparent, and designed to protect all parties equally
  • They are extremely cooperative when working with our attorneys and similar professionals that we engaged
  • They are respected in the business community of Aruba - a respect that is earned, not simply given

When our long term plans for Aruba changed, Aruba Home Minders applied these same qualities as our Real Estate Broker. They are thoroughly knowledgeable in Arubian/Dutch real estate practice - ensuring that no checkpoints were missed in the process and earning their commission by proactively representing our interests as property sellers.


Judy and Jacqui have been excellent business partners and esteemed friends. We highly recommend them and their firm to anyone interested in the range of services they provide.

We have worked with Aruba Home Minders over the last several years on several different occasions. AHM rented our condo and did an excellent job keeping it rented and maintaining the property. Recently AHM sold our piece of paradise.  Judy is by far the most professional real estate agent on the Island. Judy kept us informed every step of the way and kept on top of all the legal issues involved in the sale. I would highly recommend Judy and her team for home minding or sales/ purchases in Aruba. AHM makes life in Aruba simple, as it should be! Kelley and David Keith, New London, New Hampshire

As always THANK YOU for everything.... We really value your friendship and how you manage to ALWAYS take care of everything!!! You are the BEST!!!! Sherri Thomas

Home ownership in Aruba is a wonderful thing, but when you are 2000 miles away in the States, it can be a real worry. After two years of struggling with other agents with lax attitudes, we came across Judy and Aruba Homeminders. It was truly one of the best things to happen to us in Aruba. Thanks Judy !!!

I had a great trip to Aruba, it was so nice not to have to spend half the week cleaning and doing yard work! Everything looked really good both in and out of the house, thanks for all your hard work. We have received nothing but compliments on the appearance/cleanliness of the property from our renters, so THANK YOU! Ben Kroll

You are a very detailed, efficient Realtor, your work is impeccable. Pasa un bon dia, Best Regards, Carolyn

Since 2009 we own a beautiful house on Aruba. We enjoy very much staying here, but owning a property when you are 5000 miles away can be rather complicated.

Since the beginning we work with the team of Aruba Homeminders and this has been the perfect solution for us. It’s almost as much their home as it is ours! Each time we return to Aruba we find our property in perfect shape, repairs done, everything clean and ready to use. During our absence they take care of everything and keep us posted by mail.

We can seriously recommend this team to you, if you are looking for reliable Property-management-professionals.

It is my pleasure to recommend Judy Lembo and Aruba Home Minders. Judy and Aruba Home Minders watched over our vacation home for the last 6 years. During her regularly scheduled visits Judy and her staff always went the extra mile making sure that everything was working properly. If something wasn’t right Judy had her staff attend to it at a reasonable cost whether it was fixing a toilet, repairing a refrigerator or washing machine or servicing an A/C unit etc.  Aruba Home Minders is truly a one stop shop. They also rented our unit for us when we asked them to and oversaw the process from start to finish. They screened potential renters, collected deposits and final payments and provided pre and post visit cleanup. More importantly they also advised us as to what the rental rates were for properties such as ours. When we decided to sell our home Judy handled that as well making the process a lot easier. I would not hesitate to use Aruba Home Minders in the future or to recommend their services.

From 2009 -2016 Judy Lembo from Aruba Homeminders did an excellent job regarding:

  • welcome guests
  • housekeeping
  • home minding
  • her network for maintenance.

We never received complaints of our tenants. Our house was always ready for rentals.

Thanks Judy!

Hi Judy and Jacqui 

I would like to first say thank you for all of your help to make our trip to Aruba a success. The Gem is truly the perfect name for the condo that we rented. It was clean, bigger than we expected and it had everything we needed to have a great week. Even the beds were a hit as to how comfortable they are.  The location was perfect and the security was a plus.   Even though we didn’t think we needed security because everyone was so nice. 

We used many of the items that were provided in the house such as the beach towels and beach chairs that were so awesome that I want to find them and buy a set. The cooler was a hit with my husband to take his favorite beverage over to the beach and let’s not forget the outside patio and community pool that we used in the evenings. 

Judy was so helpful in letting us know where to park and get on the beach. This ended up being a huge plus due to the fact that we had a handicapped person traveling with us and we were able to pull right up to the beach and get him to the chairs. Also thank you Judy for helping my sister get the wheelchair. 

We have told everyone we talked to on the Island where we were staying and how nice it was and told them your web site.  

It was hard to leave and come home but we have already talked to our family and told them that this is the next big family vacation

Thanks again for everything and if you want to put this review in your website or if you want me to go to tripadvisor and put a review I would be more that happy to do so. 

Just one thing to say negative. We had trouble with the front door keys. We wish we had a key pad like my sister did. I was so afraid to lose the key and get locked out and we did not like how we had to use the key at night to lock the door. Again this is not a big deal or I would not post it or mention it to anyone else but you. Just wanted to let you know. 😃

Also was wondering if you have any other properties on any other Islands. 

Thanks again

"Best Vacation Ever!!!!" "This was my first vacation in Aruba and I’m going there again next year. The house was wonderful and was described very accurately on the listing. It was clean and had everything we needed for a family of 6. We like the fact that they had snorkling equipment & beach chairs for our use which came very handy when it came to make trips to different beaches. The neighborhood is quiet and you can get to the beach in 5 minutes. Aruba Home Minders did an extraordinary job in accommodating me and my family... along with helping me with the car rental. I appreciate the fact that Judy eased my anxiety by letting me know what to expect ahead of time. I completely enjoyed it and will be back next year!

Testimonial:

From the 1st day we bought our property on Aruba, Judy and her team have taken care of our home. For more than ten years we visited the island for two months, twice a year. Aruba Homeminders helped us during our stays with cleaning, maintenance and other domestic assistance. During our absence, they took care of everything, necessary to keep our house safe and in perfect shape, including paying bills for utilities and taxes and supervising necessary maintenance-activities.


For more than 10 years we have trusted Judy completely and we have never been disappointed.

When we decided to sell our property, Judy has been a very professional Real Estate Agent, handling the complete sale of the house.


Everyone looking for professional home minding-service and reliable, personal assistance with property-management on Aruba should contact Judy and her colleagues of Aruba Homeminders.


Although we had good reasons to sell our house on Aruba, we are certainly going to miss the island and the services of Aruba Homeminders.


Warm regards,

Pim & Karin Peters


My family has been to Aruba around 15 times in the past years. This was our first time to rent a house on the island. I must say we were thrilled with the experience. Patrick takes great attention to detail regarding every aspect of the process. Communication occurs in a very timely manner. The amount of information he will provide to first time guests is amazing. At check in, Judy was also exceptional. She was very helpful with any questions and was always a phone call away. As for the house, AMAZING! The property is fully gated and very secure. It is located in a quiet cul de sac and is super close to Palm Beach and all Aruba has to offer. Patrick offers everything you need and more for a great stay. The swimming pool is a great feature and is well maintained. We found the house to be super comfortable, safe and very pleasant decor. I would not hesitate to book this property again and even recommend to first time guests. You will not be disappointed!

Rent homes for travel regularly and must say this house by far has been best !!! Fairly priced, great size for 1 to 6 with bedrooms well spaced for privacy. With the bedroom door closed one would not hear others who may be up from due to the solid wood doors. Open concept floor plan leaves kitchen to dining area to living room for easy conversation. Quiet A/C units in every major room and keeps the house a comfortable cool temperature. The pool was bath water Temperature and very clear on a daily basis which was tended to twice in the week. Plenty of space with outdoor patio in shade and lounge chairs for sun. Management (both Judy and Anne ) were fabulous - ensured we understood no question was to small and to reach out for any reason. Was more like connecting with friends than business. Really great place. !!!! Will be back for sire !
