One Happy IslandBest of IgoUgo

Overview

With over 200 gourmet restaurants, dining out is a great experience. We like seafood and were not disappointed. The beaches are clean and beautiful. The people are truly friendly and are helpful. We climbed the 600 some steps up the 2nd highest point in Aruba,the Haystack. Terrific view.

Quick Tips:

We stayed at LaCabana, so you might want to bring a soft-sided cooler. You can ice down your beverages of choice and take them to the pool or beach.

Best Way To Get Around:

I rented a small car for 6 days. I felt it gave me the freedom to go where I wanted when I wanted. The cost was and in gas and I went all over the island.
