Anyone been to Aruba? Tips, things to do, places to visit?
 

Booked a trip to Aruba for our anniversary. Read up about a few things online, but would rather have someone that's been there give me their :2 cents:

Staying at the Renaissance Resort, and we have a rental car (I already know about the no right on redlights and the roundabouts).

Besides the beaches, I would recommend visiting the "Natural Pool" as well as booking horseback riding.

Wacky Wahoo has good food, I also has a good time drinking German beer at Bavaria.

Probably most DUTCH Webmasters have visited that place by now.

Thanks... I'll look into those. Anyone else ever been?

If you have no kids there is adult only stuff. Snorkel on the west side, definitely horseback ride, golf, rent a jeep, have dinner at La Trattoria El Faro Blanco on the north side - it is on a large hill and you can see the ocean on three sides - great sunsets.

Don't let your credit card out of your sight when paying for something and check ATM's carefully for card skimmers.

There Is this place you can go pay them 5 bucks and they give you a shovel so you can dig around in the sand for natalee holloways bones

ehh, I went there on my honeymoon and thought it sucked balls.

take a boat to curacao and spend your holiday there :)

Outside of the hotel areas, the island was surprisingly filthy. We rented a Jeep which was fun, hit the 'natural pools' as well as explored a cockroach invested cave ... If you are looking for good local food, then you're probably in the wrong place.
