ISLAND
ARUBA
Abound with white sand beaches, calm turquoise waters, and easy access to incredible dining and nightlife, Aruba is an obvious choice for anyone wanting a picture-perfect beach vacation.
Located below the hurricane belt, Aruba has perfect weather year-round guaranteeing more sunny days than any other Caribbean Island. That gorgeous sunshine will follow you off the beach as you explore this hospitable island and see why people of almost 100 different nationalities are so proud to call Aruba their home.
The colorful capital of Oranjestad is a short bus or taxi ride from any hotel and is a hub of activity for the island. If you’re looking for more of a wellness vacation, then you’ll want to book a hotel on Eagle Beach and participate in some of the health & mindfulness options found around the island. Some of our favorites are; yoga classes with one of the island’s renowned teachers, nature hikes to soak up all the eye-catching beauty where the desert meets the sea, and relaxing spa treatments at one of Aruba’s top spas. We are firm believers that there are very few things in life that evoke relaxation more than an oceanfront massage.
All the best Aruba hotels are located on one of two main beaches; Palm Beach and Eagle Beach. Palm Beach is home to the island’s high-rise full-service resorts, holding space on the famous palm tree-lined beach. Eagle beach is a much wider stretch of the same pure white sand and this is where you’ll find the smaller, more intimate hotels, favored by Caribbean Journey clients seeking romance and tranquility without giving up access to any of the wonderful amenities the island has to offer.
