Aruba Insider Tips

Aruba | With a Health and Wellness focus in the Caribbean, Bucuti & Tara Beach Resort has the Caribbean's first Healthy Hour. Enjoy expanded complimentary activities and classes including tai chi on the beach; an in-house nutritionist; couples massages; and nutrient-packed smoothies and snacks.

Aruba | Because Aruba is located in southern Caribbean below the hurricane belt, the climate is dry, with low humidity and near constant 80 degree weather. Although Dutch and Papiamento are the official languages of Aruba, most Arubans speak a minimum of four languages, including English and Spanish.

Aruba | Dive in to Aruban cuisine at Papiamento, an upscale restaurant housed in an Aruban home. Tables are set around a central pool and travelers will savor classic dishes including keeshi yena (a chicken casserole stewed with olives and raisins and covered in cheese) or surf and turf serviced on a sizzling stone. A favorite spot just outside of Arikok National Park, Zeerovers offers fresh-from-the-boat seafood on a wooden dock over the ocean. Enjoy everything from Aruban wahoo and tuna to Venezuelan shrimp and a local Balashi beer.
