When we grow up we want to travel like you! We have never seen someone who travels as much as you! Em's parents have been to Aruba a few times and love it! The lazy river looks awesome! Holy cow! If I was surrounded by iguanas I would lose my mind LOL! No red toenail polish is a GREAT Tip!
LOL, to be fair we haven't been to Aruba recently and I used footage from our last trip for this. The best thing about timeshare is all the great vacations we have been on that we otherwise probably wouldn't have done without owing. As for Aruba, it is a fantastic island and that lazy river is one of the best.
Unfortunately, we haven't been recently. I recorded this from home with footage from our last trip. Can't wait to get back though. Thanks for watching!
Good info and very informative. Here is the reality on the pool chairs. If you want a prime spot around the pool be prepared to be down at the poolside to hold a chair NLT 0430 to 0500 and then remain at the chairs until 0700. A real downside to the surf club in my opinion.
You don't need to take floats. We found tons of them around the resort and at the entrance to the Spyglass building. The chair tagging system sucks ass. Most people tag them early then just hang out the beach and then come back later in the afternoon. I found the pigeons MUCH more aggressive than the iguanas. They'll fly right into your dinner plate.
Good point. A lot of people leave their floats behind. We seem to prefer certain kind. So if you have that kind of preference one may want to take their own along. Generally people don't leave great qualify floats behind. I agree about the chair tagging policy. Terrible. Thanks for watching!
We want to go to Aruba this coming week ,me and my husband and my 2 kids ,we want to have like nice condo with ocean front view and pool ,but we don't know where can we go Any idea or help plz 🙏
Well, there isn't anything like leaving it till the last minute :). You could consider checking out Redweek.com. It looks like there may be some weeks available for rent. This is of course prime time, so it may not be cheap. Thanks for watching.
How do you get to the grocery stores if you don't rent a car? Or if we do rent a car do they provide carseats? Do you know if they offer covid testing on site? Thanks!
Thanks for watching. It has been a while since we have been to Aruba. I am not sure the best way to the grocery without a car. I don't think the resort has any kind of shuttle. A taxi would work, but they would have to wait for you to come back. As for car seats, your best option would be to call the agency you are considering renting through and ask if they provide them, but the real only way to guarantee something that will work and is cleaned well would be to bring your own along with you. I highly recommend renting a car if you want to get around the island. There is so much to see and do and driving is super easy. We made a video on our other channel about driving in Aruba; ruclips.net/video/ZWTvvAtKzcc/видео.html As for testing, so much changes so fast. I would suggest contacting the resort directly to see what they offer or even consider ordering some proctored Abbott BinaxNOW tests from eMed ahead of time to take with you. As I understand, these can be taken for your return and are recognized because the tests have someone monitor you via webcam as you take the test.

We no longer rent a car in Aruba. Cabs are plentiful, and if you have a drink better to let them drive. The Lazy River is less crowded after 6, and no tubes are required after 6:30. Also please make sure your sunscreen is coral reef friendly!

Enjoy my island. Thank you for coming again. I always request floor 7 or up. The palm trees go up to floor 6

Watching your channel is making me salivate to be on vacation right now. Lol but true.
Thank you this was very helpful
You're welcome & thanks for watching!
Love your videos. Also love that shirt!
Thank you!! I liked that shirt too, I still have it. I just wish it still fit 😅

Yeah, getting up that early doesn't sound like my idea of vacation. Thanks for watching!

Can you bring your own umbrella and set up in the front?
I beleive you can. I know there is a vendor that will rent beach chairs and an umbrella and set it up in front of the first row of palapas.
How do you get to the grocery stores if you don't rent a car? Or if we do rent a car do they provide carseats? Do you know if they offer covid testing on site? Thanks!

The place looks too crowded.
That is why they have the Aruba Ocean Club next door :) Thanks for watching!
