Overview
Aruba may be famous for luxury resorts, but you do not need a luxury budget to enjoy its white-sand beaches, turquoise water and colorful island life.
This flexible, affordable stay gives you the freedom to experience Aruba your way. Begin with our suggested three-night stay or add as many nights as you like. Choose from carefully selected hotels offering guest review scores from excellent to exceptional—all clearly priced so you can select the accommodation that suits your budget.
Relax on Eagle Beach, explore colorful Oranjestad, sample local Caribbean food or use Aruba’s affordable public buses to discover more of the island. There is no expensive fixed program and no pressure to purchase activities you do not want. You decide where to go, what to do and how much to spend.
Itinerary
What you’ll do each day, with your included hotel — or upgrade any stay.
Day 1
Day 1 – Welcome to Aruba
Arrive at Queen Beatrix International Airport and make your way to your selected hotel. After checking in, settle into Aruba’s relaxed island rhythm.
Depending on your arrival time, enjoy your first walk along the beach, explore the surrounding neighborhood or find a casual restaurant serving local and Caribbean specialties.
Streetwise tip: Arrange your airport transportation in advance or check the official taxi rates before traveling to your hotel.
Day 2 – Eagle Beach and Oranjestad
Begin your day at Eagle Beach, known for its wide stretch of soft white sand, clear water and iconic fofoti trees. Beach access is public, so you can enjoy one of Aruba’s most beautiful locations without staying at an expensive beachfront resort.
Later, take the bus into Oranjestad and explore its colorful Dutch Caribbean architecture, local shops, waterfront and markets. Look beyond the principal tourist streets to find casual restaurants and better-value local food.
Return to the beach in time to enjoy one of Aruba’s memorable sunsets.
Day 3 – Discover Aruba Your Way
Today is completely flexible. Spend another day relaxing at Eagle Beach, Palm Beach or the quieter Druif Beach, or choose an optional island experience.
Popular possibilities include:
Arikok National Park
Baby Beach and San Nicolas
California Lighthouse
A snorkeling or sailing excursion
A jeep or off-road island tour
Casibari Rock Formations
Bushiribana Gold Mill Ruins
Local art and murals in San Nicolas
Renting a car for one day can be an economical way to visit several places, but you can also use public transportation for many of the island’s principal beaches and communities. Aruba’s official tourism site describes its bus service between Oranjestad and the hotel areas as reliable and inexpensive. Aruba Tourism Authority
Day 4 – One Last Aruba Moment
Enjoy breakfast and, if time permits, take a final swim or walk along the beach.
Check out of your hotel and continue to Queen Beatrix International Airport for your departure. If three nights are not enough, simply add more nights during booking and stay as long as you like.
