Aruba

Aruba is truly a beach-like paradise. Imagine a canvas of pristine white-sand beaches stretching endlessly, where the sand feels like fine powder underfoot. The turquoise waters are so clear that you can see the vibrant marine life beneath the surface, making it a perfect spot for snorkeling and swimming. The water system is one of the cleanest in the world. The clarity and freshness of the water is unremarkable.

However, the actual land/outskirts are very barren, but the beaches and the crystal clear water make up for it!

Where to Stay

Airbnb Link- During my stay, I was able to experience a luxurious 6-bedroom Airbnb, where every detail has been crafted to perfection. As you enter this beautifully designed home, you’re greeted by a spacious, open-plan living area bathed in natural light, with large windows that frame the surrounding area. It is very close to the beach and any activity.

Food and Club

Overall, the dining and club experiences I had in Aruba were pleasant but not particularly extraordinary. However, the standout spots that truly captured my attention and left a lasting impression were the following:

Food: Craft Coffee & Bar, Dutch Pancakes, and Flying Fish Bone (flying fish bone was a beautiful experience where you are given a dish while seated in the ocean.)

Clubs: Gusto and South Beach.
