Aruba is known for it’s small Dutch presence, beautiful beaches and friendly people. There is so much to see and enjoy here. I suggest renting a jeep and driving around to check out the sites. Watch out for any donkeys along side of the road! There are no stop signs in Aruba, just a ton of round a bouts and super easy to get around. The weather is so nice year round that it makes it an easy place to go and enjoy at any time of the year.
We have stayed at the Ritz Carlton which was really nice, but we really loved Bucuti and Tara. i enjoyed the beach more and it was close to a separate hotel next door that had rental cars and several different restaurants that we just walked over to. It was very convenient and they also include breakfast.
You cannot go to Aruba and not visit Renaissance Island. This is a day trip and it starts of at getting picked up by the boat through the Renaissance Hotel. The tickets sell fast for the island, but if you purchase a massage on the island, you are able to go and spend the day there. The flamingos are all walking around as well as some huge iguanas. They have a bar and restaurant and floaties. It really is an enjoyable time and we always go when we visit this beautiful island.
Happy Travels,
