Lots of things to do in Aruba: There are watersports booths all along the beach if you want to snorkel, dive, windsurf, boating, deep sea fishing etc. If you have your own snorkel gear there are many places that you can go and snorkel on your own. Malmok Beach and Arashi Beach and along this area are the spots to snorkel. A lot of people also go to Baby Beach at the other end of the island to snorkel.

All the beaches in Aruba are public. You will find many spots along the beaches with huts and you can use these and take some beach towels etc.

The casinos are located in all the major hotels: Westin, Radisson, Hyatt, Marriott and downtown in Oranjestad, The Crystal and Seaport Casinos. They are open til the early hours of the morning. The stores in Oranjestad are closed on Sundays. The grocery stores are open on Sunday, but only half a day. We have a small grocery store across from Wacamaya, called Ting Wei. It is open Mon-Sat from 8 - 9 and on Sundays until 6pm only.

Places to dine in Aruba: Madame Janette, Dutch, large menu
Chef's Table, Dutch, variety of food
Wacky Wahoo, fish
Marandi, romantic setting on the water, mixed menu
Smokey Joes, for ribs, casual
Gianni's, Italian
Blossoms, Chinese/Japanese, at the Westin Hotel
Taste of Belgium, located at new mall across from The Holiday Inn. Outdoor, patio dining, variety of food.

On Sundays, if you're looking for a local meal, alot of places have BBQ., around lunchtime. One place we've been is the Chinese restaurant, the new Wei Tei and they charge 13.50 AFL for a load of food including ribs, chicken, rice, coleslaw, corn. One order is alot of food. It's take out.

Quick stay
The property was as advertised. The owners were extremely helpful with any issues. Nice pool. If you rent here, follow the welcome package the owner will send you as opposed to the VRBO instructions.

Renting Wacamaya Apt 14B
We rented apt 14B in the Wacamaya Apts online through VRBO. It was a simple, smooth process. Anita and Dave, the owners, responded right away to our request. They continued to respond quickly to any questions we had, as well as to any questions or concerns while we were staying there. They are both great people and very easy to communicate with.

This was our 5th trip to Aruba and we have stayed at the Wacamaya condos before. It’s in a great location very close to Arashi beach which is our favorite. The condo was lovely and clean and the bed is very comfortable. The toilet had a broken fill valve when we arrived but we reported it to Dave and he sent the caretaker right away to fix it. We will definitely stay here again!

Great place to stay
This is a condo in a very nice complex with gated parking. The pool area inside the walled in 26 unit complex is great. An oasis in the desert. It is surrounded by local residences, dirt, and some businesses across the street. If you want loud party atmosphere this is not the place. If you want isolation from the locals and oceans views from your room this is not the place. If you don't want to rent a car this is not the place. However, if you want a nice condo with a great relaxing pool in an extremely convenient location where you can go to a different beach every day using your rented car and pick a different fantastic restaurant each night this is the perfect option. Dave and Anita are great hosts and got back to me very quickly anytime I contacted them. If you have not been to Aruba yet, driving around is easy, all beaches are public and parking is easy anywhere, and it's one of the safest islands you can visit.

The property was just as advertised. Very clean, had everything we needed: paper goods, beach chairs, cooler, gas grill on property, pool, parking, tv, A/C, fully equipped kitchen, quiet neighborhood, gated entrance, comfortable bed and couches. We rented a car which I would recommend, the beach and high rise area is a couple miles and it is really to hot to walk. Highly recommend Tropic Car Rental. Dived with Palm Beach Divers, great service, picked me up at the condo and would drop me at the beach afterwards. We will return. Thanks Anita and Dave.

Peaceful oasis
We’ve stayed at this complex before and its just beautiful. This unit is fantastic. It had everything we needed for our stay. Cooler, beach chairs, beach towels, kitchen was wonderfully stocked. Large selection of books to read. Short drive to the beach, in a great location. We entered around the Marriott area daily. King bed was super comfy. The unit was very clean. Owners were great at replying to our questions. Will definitely return in the future.

Clean, comfortable, spacious, quiet, and convenient apartment
The apartment was clean, comfortable, spacious, quiet, and convenient to beaches, restaurants, and grocery stores. Aruba is very safe but my husband and I felt even more secure being in a gated community. Everything we needed was provided; plenty of bath, pool, and beach towels. Also, beach chairs, an umbrella, a cooler, and a pool float. There were lots of drawers in the bedroom for storage and plenty of hangers and space in the closet to hang clothing. There was also an iron, ironing board, and safe but we didn't use them. We didn't do much cooking but anything you would need to prepare meals is available. As well as a full size refrigerator and freezer with an ice maker. The water pressure in the shower was strong and there was plenty of hot water. The air conditioners in the living room and bedroom worked very well and cooled the room in a few minutes. The king size bed was very comfortable, dreamy soft sheets. Another plus was sufficient toilet paper, paper towels, and tissues were provided. Another place we rented in Aruba only provided what was left on the roll and additional had to be purchased by us which I thought was very inconvenient and cheap! We enjoyed having TVs with lots of cable channels in the living room and bedroom and access to Netflix in the living room. The pool was quiet in the mornings and we were always able to find lounge chairs in the sun or shade. We also enjoyed sitting on the balcony for morning coffee and evening drinks. Dave responded quickly to a maintenance request and showed me how to access Netflix which was much appreciated. Communication before and during our stay was never a problem. The only negative that I realize is out of Anita and Dave’s control was a rooster(s) crowing and dogs barking very early in the morning. We’re light sleepers and aren’t accustomed to morning noise so it would wake us but for others it might not be an issue. Luckily the apartment is at the end of the building that’s farthest from the road which would be noisier. Anita and Dave are fantastic hosts, we enjoyed having all of the comforts of home in paradise and would likely stay in the apartment again.
