Aruba tailor-made: Discover the island your way
Personal travel advice for your holiday in Aruba
Aruba is sunny, diverse and more than just a beach destination.
You can relax on the beach, explore the rugged landscapes of Arikok National Park, discover hidden bays, wander through Oranjestad or explore the island at your own pace with a rental car.
But how you experience Aruba depends greatly on where you stay and what matters most to you during your holiday.
Would you like to stay close to the beaches? Prefer a peaceful accommodation away from the crowds? Or do you mainly want the freedom to explore different parts of the island with a rental car?
I help you make the choices that suit the way you want to travel.
Aruba as a holiday on its own or as an extension of your Suriname trip
Aruba can be a destination in its own right, but it can also be a wonderful way to end a trip through Suriname.
After adventure, nature and jungle, you can finish your journey with a few relaxing days in Aruba.
Of course, you can also choose a complete holiday and discover the island at your own pace.
Whether Aruba is part of a longer journey or your main destination, I will help you work out what best suits your plans.
Accommodation that suits you
Where you stay can make a big difference to how you experience Aruba.
A small-scale accommodation in the heart of the island offers a very different experience from staying near Palm Beach or in a spacious private villa for the whole family.
That is why I have selected a number of accommodations below that each offer something special in their own way.
These accommodations are here for inspiration.
Already have a specific hotel, apartment, villa or other dream accommodation in mind that you don't see here? Let me know.
I am happy to look into it with you and see whether it fits your trip and what you want to experience.
