Cons: Long plane ride from anywhere...
It's only been about two months since I visited Aruba to experience for myself the soft white sands and warm trade breezes that I'd heard so much about. Now that it's time to start thinking about winter vacation spots for the family, I'm getting a ...

One Friendly Island For Sure

by reality_check , Feb 01 '03
Pros: Relaxing, out-of-the way, exotic. Great beaches, casinos, food, good range of activities.
Cons: Not cheap, difficult travelling from some of the US, small.
For an exotic but delightfully low-key Caribbean experience, try the tiny desert island of Aruba. Part of the “A-B-C” chain of Netherlands Antilles, (Aruba, Bon Aire and Curacao) Aruba is nestled against the coast of Venezula 19 miles from the...

Our Escape from Hurricane Frances

by mr.gizmo , Sep 12 '04
Pros: Weather, Friendly People, South of the Hurricane belt
Cons: Expensive, Not child friendly
I like to travel and it came as a surprise that I was not wild about our trip to Aruba. It was ok, but not the great experience that others have raved about. My wife and I have gone on 7 cruises in the Caribbean and always wondered what it would be ...

Aruba rubs us the right way

by crowder , Feb 03 '03
Pros: Weather, convenience, safety
Cons: Maybe too Americanized?
When I say that my wife and I are leisure travelers, I really mean it. We don't plan our days at all....even a dinner reservation is too strong a commitment for us to manage. Think of that as essential background for this review of our recent trip to...

Pros: beautiful beaches, people are friendly, lots to do

Aruba - Baby Beach

by tortillaboy , Aug 08 '00
Pros: calm beach, easy snorkeling
Cons: wind can get annoying
Sure, you get a nice view of the Coastal refinery from this beach, but that doesn't detract from the pleasant experience you can expect at Baby Beach.

Bare Facts
Like a large round pool, Baby Beach is an inlet formed in by a reef...

Pros: Clean, friendly, good value
Cons: none
Have you ever come across a deal so good you wanted to tell everyone, but you're afraid if you do it will get ruined? Well, come a little closer, friend; let me whisper in your ear. This is such a good deal I don't want just anyone to know about it. ...

Aruba - love it!

by vara1 , Feb 01 '05
Pros: Great weather and beaches, good dining.
Cons: Long flight from US West coast, more expensive than Mexico.
We spent the first week of 2005 in Aruba (my husband, two-year old and I), and it was a great way to start the year. I completed a painting inspired by our trip right after we returned. If you're interested, you can view it at: ...

Aruba - a whole different island experience!

Pros: Sunny, breezy, beautiful beaches, lots to explore!
