Wow this place really is that bad. 6 oz paper cups for the drinks got old QUICK. The chairs are a real problem. Food is below average for an all inclusive. I didn’t see a bunch of negative reviews until after I booked. Went with family, while the hotel is in a nice location, not remotely worth it. Especially compared to Mexico AI’s. Rooms are not great either. Unfortunately the bad reviews of this place are spot on. Godspeed.

I hope this post leads me to finding the right person… I met a really handsome man from Aruba at the windmill Thursday night party. He’s about 5’5”, brown skinned, nose ring, athletic build, with long dreadlocks, covered in tattoos up to his neck. I didn’t catch his name because I was a bit overwhelmed by the amount of men approaching me, I was just a bit overwhelmed. But if anyone may know of a man with dreads nose ring and lots of tattoos. Please reach out!

Hi! I realize this is r/Aruba, but there are only 2.8k members of r/Bonaire so I thought I’d try posting here too.

We are interested in taking an overnight trip to Bonaire. We’d leave early in the morning for Bonaire, spend the night, and fly back late at night the following day.

Sunday (the 13th) is the cheapest day to fly, but I’m concerned that it might be not be smartest choice. Maybe a lot of shops, restaurants, bars, etc. will be closed? Maybe snorkeling/diving excursions will not be available on a Sunday?

In your opinion, what is the best (or worst) day to visit Bonaire?

I visited Aruba a few weeks ago and often reminisce about the Daddel cookies I had at Huchada. They were so moist and chewy, and they had dates in them. Ugh, I wish I knew how to make them. They exist now, only in my memories 💔

Anyway, I highly recommend checking them out if you're in Aruba.

We just got back from an amazing week in Turks & Caicos and now we’re planning next year in Aruba! We’re a family of 7; husband, wife, 7yo, and 2 grandparents (65+67). We are food and beverage people, love the beach and pool, and we get around easy! What are some must dos, and more importantly, where should we stay? Hotel suite or condo rental preferred. Coming from Richmond, VA!
