Bon Bini!

When you see pictures of the beautiful beaches of Aruba, they are of this stretch of coastline, the westernmost edge of Aruba. The wind is gentle, the water is clear and blue, the sand is a fine white grain, and the palm...

Pros: Wonderful People

We have been to Aruba three times prior to this trip. This may have been our last trip to this once wonderful Island.

No, not because of the unprecedented succession of cloudy days. No, not because of the fact that many of the roads had...

Even though spring temperatures may reach into the triple digits without a cloud in the sky, the continuous dry breezes of Palm Beach, Aruba offer sunbathers the feeling of relaxing in front of a huge fan. Just travel around the island to witness the...

Pros: Wonderful beach, wonderful hotels, wonderful everything

If you want the absolute beach in the Caribbean, then look to Palm Beach in Aruba. If you like crystal clear water that is calm, you have looked at the right spot. The white sand is like snow on the ground. Some of the nicest hotels in the Caribbean...

Cons: None

Aruba is a great place to vacation. It has an area called eagle

an area called Palm Beach which has all the high rise properties.

Pros: White sand, turquoise waters, no crowds
Cons: Water is more choppy than at Palm Beach (not really a con, though).

We stayed at Eagle Beach in Aruba. This is where the low-rise hotels are located. Ideal for couples. Palm Beach, just down the road, it VERY crowded. It is the high-rise area, and there is a constant wave of people everywhere. Watersports also seem to jam up the view of the beach, and create a bit of noise. Eagle Beach is more serene, and, when we were there, it was easy to get a spot on the beach. There is some topless sunbathing, but all done tastefully (usually under the huts on the beach, not people walking around). There are so few people on Eagle Beach, it hardly matters! Hardly any families or kids running around on Eagle Beach, as there were on Palm (which seems to be directed more toward families). A VERY cool beach area.
