If you wish, PLEASE give your reasons. They could be very helpful to those who have never been but are considering going.

We always look forward to having a port stop in Aruba!

Normally, we're there Jan/Feb and can count of it being nice and warm ... the lovely blue water is warm as well! Great beaches and water sports!

We really like both Aruba and Curacao. Lovely and different from the other islands north of them. Interesting that thare was so much Indian curry in that area. Wasn't expecting that.

Our only stop in Aruba was a great day. We shopped

, we did the submarine and also did a sunset catamaran sail(with no sun). I really enjoyed the people.
I would go back anytime

Only one time I have been to Aruba, but I like the Color of the buildings Pink, Red, light green, Yellow, Orange U name the color and it's in ARUBA. I think the prices were a bit high or higher then St.Marrten, St.Thomas, St.Kitts

Aruba is one of our favorite ports,

I really miss the free shuttle that used to take us to the Renasaaunce (Spelling?) Hotel - the new section on the other side of the bridge where there are also some shops.

Check out the new Senior Frogs!! Carlos & Charlies -- GONE!!

We like Aruba. The beaches are nice and there is some shopping close to the dock.

We enjoyed the beaches ands did just a little shopping close to port. We had a good time at Carlos and CHarlie's but were surprised how quiet it was compared to C&C in Cozumel. I am not surprised it has changed to Senor Frog's, I think they are owned by the same parent company.
